Adding Modern Tones with Designer Shower Curtains

Sprucing up the bath can take little more than new modern curtains, towels and a shower curtain. Designer shower curtains have taken on a fresh appeal with many options today. No longer do you have to settle for vinyl prints and solids, working your bathroom décor around the curtain.

A fabric shower curtain can add softness to your room with the same designs and colors often found on vinyl curtains but toned down with the richness of cotton. Easy to wash, a fabric shower curtain can make your bathroom blend in more with adjoining rooms with its matching warmth. Also new on the market are hookless designer shower curtains often found associated with the fabric styles. This look further presents a less institutionalized look with the curtain draped over a decorative rod instead of using hooks.

You can find almost any style of designer shower curtains that you desire. Themes of favorite subjects, fine art, geometric designs, flowing scenes, and even hard to match pastel or bold colors can help you bring out a flowing overture to your bath. With the latest in sinks, vanities and faucets today, a special background of beauty can bring it all together in perfect style.

Whenever we awoke in the night, still eking out our dreams with half-awakened thoughts, it was not till after an interval, when the wind breathed harder than usual, flapping the curtains of the tent, and causing its cords to vibrate, that we remembered that we lay on the bank of the Merrimack, and not in our chamber at home. With our heads so low in the grass, we heard the river whirling and sucking, and lapsing downward, kissing the shore as it went, sometimes rippling louder than usual, and again its mighty current making only a slight limpid, trickling sound, as if our water-pail had sprung a leak, and the water were flowing into the grass by our side. The wind, rustling the oaks and hazels, impressed us like a wakeful and inconsiderate person up at midnight, moving about, and putting things to rights, occasionally stirring up whole drawers full of leaves at a puff. There seemed to be a great haste and preparation throughout Nature, as for a distinguished visitor.... And then the wind would lull and die away, and we like it fell asleep again.
— Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

When the tea is brought at five o’clock,
And all the neat curtains are drawn with care,
The little black cat with bright green eyes
Is suddenly purring there.
— Harold Monro (1879–1932)
