Lucky for my parents, cottages are in! A trend that is always in style and in constant demand is a nautical print or design, as well as cottages, shells, and other tropical images.

Lucky for you, we have the perfect nautical shower curtain to be the icing on the cake of your dream bathroom oasis. If boats and sails aren’t your thing, tropical shower curtain paradise is just a click away. With your starfish tissue cover and sand dollar soap dispenser, a beach shower curtain would be the ideal accent. We had a fishy-beachy-Florida-retirement homey theme happening in our (my parents’) bathroom (yes, the one with the Thomas Kincaid) for years and it never felt dated. It provided many a fun time.

What’s your style and what will you do with it?

Also, for those who can get sea sick, don’t worry, there are plenty of other luxury shower curtain options for all of your needs as well.  If you can’t handle a cruise, take the opportunity to make your bathroom a getaway!

Titanic Movie

This past weekend I randomly came across the classic movie Titanic.  Although it is borderline too long it does contain a great story and gives a glimpse into the world of oceanic voyages.

Having that experience brought up yet another connection between the cool aspects of this life and how My Unique Shower Curtains makes connections with the majority.  We have some options as far as nautical shower curtains at our online store front, be sure to check it out!

A fun beach bathroom for the whole family!

Beach Theme:

• Features a fun, laid-back attitude.
• Beach shower curtains typically depict specific beach scenes, beach attire, or common beach-associated objects (i.e. sandals, beach ball, palm trees, surf boards).
• Beach shower curtains are many times loud and boisterous in their personality, particularly in pattern, picture, and/or color.
• Accessories also tend to be typical in their beach depictions – again, common beach-associated objects.
• Beach bathrooms appear to be “thematic” rather than natural.

My favorite nautical bathroom. I love the simplicity of blue and white together!

Nautical Theme:

• Features a relaxing, breezy, welcoming, spacious attitude.
• Nautical shower curtains can be versatile, featuring simple stripes, a solid color, or creative pictures, like a sailing emblem.
• Nautical shower curtains are quieter and more simplistic in personality than beach shower curtains, often evoking a peaceful feeling by not evoking patron’s attention.
• Accessories are more catered to items you picture when thinking of Nantucket or Cape Cod – sea shells, coral, rope, stripes, oars, drift wood, etc.  Common colors in nautical bathrooms are whites, blues, grays, and reds.
• Nautical bathrooms seem natural in their decor, not “thematic,” which gives it the relaxing feeling as eyes are not darting from one thematic object to the other.

Below are several examples of nautical bathrooms that can transform the feeling your bathroom evokes in you or guests.  Hope these tips have been helpful and these pictures are inspiring.  Good luck with your bathroom update.

I love the color of the walls in this bathroom and how every few inches is dotted with a seashell or seahorse. The impact is bold yet simple. Beautiful.

While most nautical bathrooms do not appear "themed," here is an example of one that does appear to be nautically themed by the anchor, lighthouse, and boat decor. If your style prefers themed, here's one way to do it.

This bathroom seems to incorporate both the natural and theme effect. The mosaics are beautiful and are calmed by the white paneling. The port holes and other accessories, make it known that there is something nautical taking place.

A perfect example of a nautical bathroom that is airy, relaxing, and welcoming to all guests.

Being on the Northwest Coast I can’t help but notice the how mother nature influences design and architecture all around me.  From hotels to homes, this culture is riddled with Indian influences that tie in with simple and natural forms and materials.

In the interiors, I am noticing that the earth is the palate and the landscape is the inspiration.  From the evergreen tree, to the earthy brown waters that make up the lakes, I am finding that Green tones and neutral colors are dominate. 

For a traditional beach themed bathroom, I would suggest a beach shower curtain, but for a Northestern beach bathroom, a coastal shower curtain that is reminiscent to the unique scenery here would complete your decor.

The coast in the Northwest is made up of Mountains, evergreens, and asymmetrical waterfront architecture, much different than the South Eastern coast that I am used to in Florida.  Also, you will find the sea scapes of the northwest to be more nautical than beachy.  This can open up your ideas to nautical shower curtains as well.  

Hopefully when you think of a beach themed bathroom your mind isn’t limited to one kind of beach…think of all the coasts there are and you taste and you could pretty much create a custom coastal room with a little creativity!
