Product Information

The major difference is in how they’re designed. Shimmering screens have a glimmering appearance. This can come from a material you can make a door or screen out of, like a metal frame or glass or you can opt for a material closer to a curtain fabric. This is because of hinges mounted to the top and bottom rather than a set of hinges down the side of the door. These are more common with walk-in showers as they’re not always possible to install with tubs. Instead of installing these blinds horizontally and pulling them across the enclosure to close the curtain, these blinds drop down like regular window blinds. When you want them out of the way, you can push them up and out of the way.

If you want something quite different from the norm, you don’t necessarily need a shower curtain or door at all. This is referred to as a doorless shower. As it sounds like, these showers are set apart from the rest of the bathroom but have an open rather enclosed design. Of course, this comes with a major downside to space. If you have a smaller bathroom, a swinging door is likely to take up a lot of space when it’s open but it can add an elegant touch to a larger bathroom. Pony Wall With Glass Enclosure Shower curtains can bring beauty in home decor to a bathroom, but some problems lead people to search for alternatives. Like everything in the home, you have to weigh the pros and cons. Over time, the cons seem to take over in the decision-making.

The Softer Options

These are a reliable way to keep your curtains out of the way when you need them to. In addition, the concealed design can help give your bathroom a bit of modern appeal. Once again, to avoid damage to the roller shades, wait until they’re fully dry to roll them up and away. Shimmering Shower Screen Some alternatives people lean toward in upgrading their showers are glass doors, mirrors, wet rooms, hanging plants, and more. There are other types of material such as nylon, hemp, linen, bamboo, and bathroom window coverings. Window coverings have different items such as sheer curtains, shutters, roller panel blinds, and aluminum Venetian blinds. The only risk here is using wood in a wet environment. T reat these doors properly to avoid the negative interactions that can occur here, and make your repurposed wood doors last longer. Otherwise, the moisture will damage and warp the wood after a while. Roller Shades If there’s one thing that loves water, it’s a bunch of plants! If you really want something natural, you can skip past options like hemp and bamboo and just directly add hanging plants to replace your curtain.

Another great benefit of bamboo is how green it is. We’re not talking about aesthetics either – using a bamboo curtain instead of vinyl or PVC can help cut down on your carbon footprint a bit. Hemp Shower Curtains When you notice it needs a wash, you can toss it in your washer but you’ll want to keep the cycle on “cold” to avoid shrinkage. All in all, hemp shower curtains are a sustainable option but you’ll have to make sure to stay on top of washing them regularly to avoid mildew buildup. Macrame Shower Curtains Mold and mildew can take over a shower curtain causing foul odors and a slimy residue. Cleaning it can be a headache. So, what are the options if you want to change your shower curtain or go to something completely different? A shower pony wall is another way to describe a half-wall. You can use these as a more permanent solution to a shower curtain. Given that these are a half-wall, it’s not going to help keep water in the enclosure very much on its own. In a small bathroom, this open concept shower design may just lead to a generally damp bathroom. In a larger bathroom, it can draw the eye while you still have the layout to give the area its own space in the room. Sliding Panel DoorThe former is often considered more unique since it offers more room for customization but designs with open holes won’t contain all the splashes from your showerhead. A frosted glass screen can contain water and offer the same appeal. Shower Blinds Not every bathroom has to look the same, and nothing is stopping you from opting for something unique. Shimmering shower screens work in much the same way that a standard curtains would, and you even hang them the same way or opt for a more elegant screen.
