Step 1
Decide on a theme for the bathroom. Shower curtains are a focal point in the bathroom and usually represent the theme or style of a bathroom. Once you choose a theme, it is time to shop for a shower curtain. Picking the theme before you buy a shower curtain allows you to bring the colors of the shower curtain into the bathroom to create unity.

Step 2
Measure the shower in order to decide how long of a shower curtain to buy. Shower curtains come in various sizes and even sometimes contain more than one curtain. Write this measurement down in order to remember it later.

Step 3
Choose how you want the shower curtain to match your bathroom. Add wallpaper that coordinates with the shower curtain. Consistency helps keep bathroom decor look uncluttered. Matching the shower curtain to the wall color or bathroom decor allows for the shower curtains to match your style appropriately. Decide on a plain color or a pattern that can easily be represented throughout the bathroom.

Step 5
Figure out how to hang the shower curtain. Shower curtains can be showcased the same ways as household curtains. Decide to tie your shower curtain to the side or hang straight down. Pick whether you want a hook-less shower curtain, or a curtain that requires hooks. Match your curtain hooks to your bathroom decor.

Decide whether a shower curtain liner is appropriate. Shower curtain liners protect the shower curtain, but a liner may add bulk and show through the curtain. Shower curtain liners come in various colors, and some liners are also magnetic.
