Ruffled Shower Curtain  

There are many different colors and styles to choose from when it comes to shower curtains, but nothing can beat the subtle elegance of a ruffled shower curtain.  Like many other decorative household items, shower curtains have come full circle.  It seems styles always come and go in cycles and shower curtains are no exception.  The country cottage style of a ruffled curtain has made its return to the shower curtain market and the shower curtains with ruffles are become a must have item for every bathroom in the house.  The ruffles give a shower curtain a unique simplicity that is just not seen with any other style.

Ruffled shower curtains seem to be the complete opposite of the usual shower curtain of the modern world from a few years ago.  Before ruffles made a comeback, most shower curtains were rather straight forward.  They would usually be a single color that went well with the rest of the colors in the bathroom and would not have much extra flair or design to them at all. The days of single toned, boring shower curtains are definitely behind us now. Adding ruffles to a shower curtain adds a certain free-flowing style to them and the vibrant colors are just the icing on the cake.  These old style shower curtains can really bring a bathroom to life.

Just having a ruffled shower curtain alone can help bring your 20th century bathroom out of the past and into the future.  They bring a certain amount of warmth and coziness to anyone who enters the bathroom, which is always a key feature of a properly decorated room.  If you can bring other country cottage related items into the bathroom as well, it will really help bring the whole picture of what you are going for together. 

The one word that best describes what an old style shower curtain brings to a bath, and really the bathroom as a whole, is character.  It is a very elegant, distinguished look that can't be matched.  While staying practical, you will probably want to go with the lightest shower curtain possible for your bathroom if you are trying to go for this look.  I have a light, lemon-yellow curtain in my bathroom right now and get complements on it nearly every time a guest uses it.

Right now, there is really no other way to go other than a country style ruffled shower curtain for you bathroom.  In fact, I would go with that style for every bathroom in your house.  The warmth and "at home" feeling it gives anyone who enters the bathroom can't be topped by any other look, so why would you settle for less?  These curtains can be found all over the Internet in countless stores.  You should be able to find them rather quickly if you search in the right places.
