Shower curtains are probably one of the most overlooked bathroom accessories. But, did you know that they actually have the ability to completely transform your bathroom’s overall look? They are available for sale in a wide variety of styles, designs, colors, and fabrics; and there are also a number of ways for you to make unique shower curtains that you can truly call your own. So, before you go out and roam store aisles trying to find the right shower curtain for your bathroom, you may want to try one or more of the following ideas for making your bathroom decor truly original.
Almost all types of fabric can be turned into a shower curtain, although fabrics that aren’t waterproof will require the use of a liner. This means that you can actually transform a simple sheet into an originally-designed shower curtain. Sheets usually have a folded top and you can create an opening for the curtain rod by removing the two short seams along the side of the sheet. This being said, you may want to take out an old white sheet, a few rubber bands, and dyes in your favourite colors to create a fun and colourful tie-dye shower curtain. If you are worried about finding accessories that will match your tie-dye curtain then you can create the curtain using safe, muted colors such as soft pink and beige.
If you want to give your bathroom a strong, masculine look then you can use leather for your shower curtain. If ventilation in your bathroom is not very good, it is best to opt for either faux leather or vinyl because these fabrics are more resistant to humidity and water damage. Either way, remember that leather requires the use of a curtain liner. On the side of the coin, if you want to give your bathroom a feminine look, you may use lace or eyelet for your shower curtain. A good way to create unique shower curtains is by combining a lace or eyelet curtain with a colored liner.
Another way to liven up your bathroom is by simply making an effort to glam up your existing curtain instead of buying or creating a new one. One way to glam up your curtain is by outlining its design with beads or jewels. You can attach these ornaments in two ways. If your sewing skills are up to par, then it is a great, sturdy way to get them onto the fabric. If not, then gluing them works well too. But, if you feel that your existing curtain definitely has to go and you need to make a new one, you can do so with the use of sequins and metallic fabric. After attaching the sequins onto the fabric, you can create the loop for the curtain rod by sewing up the ends of the fabric.
For a more cozy appeal, you can personalize your shower curtain by laying out a plain white or light-colored sheet and then letting your kids create their very own designs with fabric paint. The entire family can also make a collage of your hand prints all over the sheet. Using your personal computer and printer, you may print out photos on iron-on transfer paper and then iron them onto the sheet. You now have a really personal and special shower curtain. These are just a few ideas that you can use as inspirations in making your own unique shower curtains.
