A Shower Curtain Finally

It only took us almost two years but our master bathroom finally has a shower curtain and is fully functional now. For the longest time the bathroom sat like this...




I genuinely had no problem with it the way it was, not at the time anyway. Ever since we moved in we've just used the shower in the guest bath. I'd take baths in our bathroom because of the larger tub, but I'm not sure we've even turned on the shower head to make sure it works.

As you can see, we have a little window in our bathroom that I love. It makes me very happy when bathrooms have windows in them, and ours is even better because there are no neighbors on that side so no need to keep it covered for privacy. I was a little worried that adding a shower curtain would block out some of the light from the window, depending on which side you kept it on I suppose.

But alas, the time finally came where we decided we really need to get one. As mentioned in some previous posts, we had company come in for a visit and thought it'd be nice if we didn't have to scramble around with four people using one bathroom.



It hasn't been used yet, hence the candle and diffuser that are still inside


We knew we wanted to get a curved rod for the space since our tub curves as well. I must say, I want to change out the rod in the other bathroom now because these curved ones are awesome.

I knew I wasn't going to even consider an even semi dark shower curtain, I wanted to keep it as light as possible without going with plain white. The curtain I picked out was from the Threshold line at Target for $19.99 I believe, they have some really cute designs.

A big problem we found though is that when the curtain is closed, it gets really dark inside the tub.


The curtain is only half closed there but you can still see it's starting to get a little cave like, and that's during the day with the added help of the window! We're going to have to get a second rod to hold the decorative curtain while the curved one will hold the liner.


It's just a small change to the room but I'm happy to have it done and maybe it'll give me the push I need to get started on decorating this bathroom.
