Shower Hooks

Shower hooks, rods and rings come in a variety of shapes, colors and choices, so you don’t

have to be stuck with the same old boring bathroom accessories in your home. There are many name brand manufacturers who offer shower curtain hooks and rings that come in so many stylish and fun options, so choosing the right ones to match the decor of your new or current bathroom and home is easy. There are just some things that need to be considered in selecting these bath accessories.

Bathroom Accessories - Shower Rings & Hook Sets

First, decide whether you want metal or plastic ring sets for your shower curtain rod. Different curtain rings & hooks have their own pros and cons. Hooks for example are very easy to install, and can hang your shower curtain liner without any hassles. The downside is, they also tend to come off the easiest.

In addition to that, there are shower hooks that appear to stick on textured shower rods. With plastic shower curtain rings, they are less likely to damage the texture and paint of the rod but they are more difficult to install. Also another thing to note is that if you have a heavy fabric shower curtain, it's best you get some durable curtain rings because the plastic variety warps.

Keep in mind the overall decor of your bathroom too. For example, if you have other fixtures, towel racks or hardware with chrome and brushed metal finishes, silver seashell shower curtain hooks can display your curtain in style. If you have a blue fish shower curtain for example, either white or light blue ball shower curtain rings would compliment the overall look nicely. For those of you who don't like too many colors, try the clear variety, as they'll blend in well with almost any color. For more fun, you can also try the dots shower hook set, a multi-colored 12 hook set of blue, yellow, brown and red. It really brightens up the overall decor.

If you're after an Antoinette shower curtain with floral prints, it is best to work with the predominant color and try to work with the overall color and style. You might want to opt for leaf-style hook set for instance.

Also different varieties of accessories such as roller shower curtain rings are available. These heavy duty metal ring sets come with metal balls to assist you in drawing your shower screens, as it just rolls along smoothly and never catches or tugs.

Consider the curtain rods to be used too. For plain rods, any style or design of hooks easily matches, but for rods with an ornate design, you need to be careful in picking the style of hook that works best with the ensemble. Just a tip - if you require extra long shower rods, go for the heavy duty varieties that can take the weight of your shower curtains without warping. More durable curtain rods are good for times when your kids accidentally tug on the fabric. The cheap plastic shower rods aren't worth the price, and they will not last very long. Yellow stains start to develop and are also quite hard to remove. Curved shower rods are fine too, if you're wanting that sort of style, as long as they're the sturdy metal types.

About Bath Shower Curtain Liners

What about curtain liners then? What's the difference in that? Well firstly, a curtain liner is transparent and mostly made in vinyl - most sold in stores today are made with PEVA. It's purpose is to be a cheap and easy way to prevent water from hitting your actual curtain and bath towels that normally aren't far away. Some people just have a clear vinyl shower curtain or liner, and this can be quite economical - if you're not too fussy about bathing privacy. Also, when it comes to curtain liners, you might want to consider the anti-mildew models as they're much easier to keep clean - you won't have to scrub them every so often.
