When choosing such an important bathroom accessory as your shower curtain, you have to decide what material most suits your needs, then make a decison.
A fabric shower curtain is a great way to make a drab bathroom look updated and sophisticated. The texture of cotton, polyester, or any other fabric you choose makes the ordinary bathroom become extraordinary. Think of your shower as window, and dress it to perfection. How much light do you want to get through, what length do you need, and finally what color and design most coordinate with your decor? A fabric shower curtain can leave you many options, but one downfall is that you must use a vinyl liner to protect it form water damage…something some people just don’t want to bother with.
Vinyl shower curtains are much more of your typical solution for the bathtub problem. Functional and funky, vinyl can keep the rest of the bathroom dry and mildew free and add just the right amount of “unique” to your boring bathroom. Vinyl is easily printed on and light can easily pass, making your showering expereince much more bright and exciting! Also, with a vinyl shower curtain, you don’t really need to use a liner, since the curtain itself can act as a vinyl shower curtain liner.
It’s really a matter of personal taste, whether or not you choose fabric or vinyl, but ultimately you can’t forget to go with what makes you most happy, everyday when you walk into your bathroom!
