When wanting to change a bathroom, most people look first at the tub. A new tub might be just what you need but you might be able to get a new look by making some small changes. You can get a new tub if you really need one but if you tub is too small when you shower, maybe you just need to stretch it.
Most people have tubs that do double duty as showers. The vast majority of shower tubs are the same size, 30×60. Even though the size is the same, some tubs just seem to not have enough room. Do you need a little more elbow room to have a good shower? If it’s annoying to turn around and you’re always rubbing up against the shower curtain, consider getting a different type of shower curtain rod, not a new tub.
How does a new shower curtain rod give you more room in your tub? There are new rods you can buy called curved shower curtain rods. These rods can increase the space in your shower by up to 6 inches. The ends of the rod attach in the same place as traditional rods but this one curves in the middle.
When you get the curved shower curtain rod, you can get them in different styles to match or change your décor. You can’t use the spring loaded, no screw rod, you have to anchor it in the wall. The curved rods usually come with several different types of anchors to secure it to the wall.
Even though the rod is stretched, the shower curtain does not come out of the tub and you don’t have to worry about water leaking out. There is no need for a larger curtain. Make the most of the time you spend in the bathroom, be comfortable. Give yourself some elbow room by getting a curved shower curtain rod.
Don’t think about a full remodel of your bathroom. Just changing the little things will make a big difference. Along with your new shower curtain rod, also think about getting a new shower curtain. You can easily add color to your bathroom by using a multi-color curtain. This is an easy way to add some flair to your bathroom. Get a fabric one with a liner and add some sophistication to your bath.
Small changes cost little but make a big difference. Because you spend the most time in your bedroom and bathroom, those rooms should be comfortable.
It’s not hard to liven up your bathroom without spending a lot of money. Make the most of what you already have by using a curved curtain rod and increase your space.
If you’re tired of the same old thing for shower curtains, try a new twist which also can make hanging a curtain easier – try a hookless shower curtain rod and stop fighting with the curtain hooks.
