A shower
curtain rod is not the most prominent feature of the bathroom. It
is however the foundation for adding more decorative features
to the room. In fact, a plastic shower curtain rod can have
many other uses other than just holding up a curtain that
keeps shower water in its place.
Shower Curtains for the Bathroom
Most
often a curtain rod is used in the bathroom. These come
in a variety of colours and styles to suit your taste
and needs. Many modern homes have bathrooms with moulded
shower fittings. A plastic shower curtain rod that has
a spring inside is used to create tension to hold the
rod into place. These types of pressure rods are adjustable
and require adding rings to hold up the bathroom drapery.
It
doesn’t have to be a boring display just because
it is functional. Decorative curtain rings can pick
up the pattern of the drapes in the bathroom. Some come
with sea shells, or maybe brass medallions. There is
as broad a range of decorative rod rings as there are
bathroom curtains.
Other Uses for A Shower Curtain Rod
Any
place that you want to hang a curtain can be enhanced
with a shower curtain rod. Fabric drapes or cafe
curtain styles can be held in place with this versatile
tool. Most rods are at least an inch thick so you probably
wouldn’t
want to use them with more light weight fabrics, just
any place that calls for a heavy curtain or drapery. Some
of the more trendy uses for a shower curtain rod are to
create a soft-form door. Closet spaces can be blocked off
with drapes using a shower curtain rod to hang them. Really,
any place where you want to hang
the shower curtain fabric instead
of a door can be enhanced with a shower curtain rod.
Also,
dividing a room is easy with the use of a shower curtain
rod. A doorway that doesn’t support using
a wood door because of space or swing
clearance can
be blocked off with drapes. Hiding
a television behind curtains within a shelving unit can
also be done with shower curtain rod.
