Not every bathroom that has a tub or shower can get a glass shower door. For reasons like, tub/shower location, budget, or function. Believe it or not, there are still people who don't want to have to clean the glass. I even chose a shower curtain for my guest bath to give it a little pattern flare.


Anyways, over the years I have Google searched the heck out of different shower curtains because I typically don't like to choose a plain one. Sometimes I do, but most of the time I try to find something fun. So I wanted to share some of my favorite shower curtains and various websites that I go to when looking for the perfect shower curtain.

There are 3 things I look for when shopping for a shower curtain:


  1. Length - standard shower curtains are 72'' wide by about 72'' long which is 6 feet. These work for tub/shower kits and generally for bathrooms with 8' ceilings. However, if you have 9'+ ceilings these shower curtains can appear too short leaving too big of a gap at the top. What you're looking for at the height would be 72'' wide by 84''+ tall.

  2. Shower hook holes - I am not a lover of the grommet. I look for shower curtains that have a button hole or a tie top.

  3. Material - I try to look for 100% cotton or linen fabrics for durability and I like the way they look draped. I typically always have a liner on the inside to keep the shower curtain from getting any mold or mildew.

Some other websites I enjoy visiting to see what options they have are:


Here are some shower curtain pictures that I found inspiration in. I looked into making my own shower curtain for awhile, but I had a hard time finding fabric I liked that came in 72'' wide. So if you've figured out how to make your own shower curtain and want to share how, leave a comment!
