But my current curtain rod is attached to top of the last (or rather second to last) tile, immediately followed by wall space. As an inexpierenced DIY-er, how could I cover/seal those holes up if I do move the rod higher? Any thoughts? So, I’m tempted to try this in my bathroom with the same tile on the wall situtation.

Each panel is 10ft 3/8" wide and 14ft 5/8". Vivan is the curtain style name and they are perfect for floor to ceiling shower curtain. You cannot get this much fabric at the store to make your own for this price. Ikea sells 2 panels to a pkg for $14.99. Each panel is 10ft 3/8″ wide and 14ft 5/8″.

I like this idea for the shower. Not sure how it would work for ours though. The bathroom is set up with the window in the shower/tub area, so maybe too much light would be blocked? We were thinking of using the curved out shower rods for more room after we remove the shower doors since we don't like shower doors on bath tubs.

I just love all of your projects. Thank you! I recently (on a whim) decided to remove my shower doors from the tub. (Landlord said we can customize our apts.) I already had a shower curtain covering the doors, but now that it's only a shower curtain, I almost went out and bought one of those plastic liners. I had no idea there were fabric ones. So, thank you for bringing them to your readers attention (well, my attention anyway.) I'm sooo happy with a fabric one. It's like being in a hotel. I smile each and every day I use the bathroom. Thanks again! Keep up the good work on the new place! Cheers! Kelly :-) Hi YHL!

However, I'm having problems finding a curtain that's big enough (at least 60" wide by 84" tall), especially in brick-and-mortar stores. Do you have any suggestions of where we should look? Thanks for any help you can give, and thanks for all the inspiration you always provide! I've definitely gotten a TON of cute ideas from this site.

We'd just band it with one of the solid colors found in the curtain (or something complementary like a neutral tone that you'll be tying in somewhere else). We'd recommend going to the fabric store with the curtain to see what goes with it and then just sewing on a thick band of fabric on the bottom so it's extra tall. Good luck! xo, s
