Finding yourself on a budget but also in need of a bathroom update, you may think you have no options.  You decide to sew curtains to save money and get the look you want but you face one more challenge – you have no clue how to sew.  As you are about to discover, you can actually make fabulous bathroom curtains without every using a sewing machine or needle and thread but with giving up on beauty and quality.

As you can imagine, no-sew bathroom window curtains are a great way to save money and time while allowing you to make something great with pride.  Too often, people think with the curtains being sewn they must look cheap and fall apart quickly but nothing could be further from the truth.  In fact, you can make no-sew bathroom curtains in a huge variety of styles so you are not forced to give up on the look you want.  However, some of the more popular styles for no-sew curtains include tablecloth curtains, draped valances, felt or fleece, and even sheet curtains, which we will explain.

Keep in mind that there are many other possibilities but we will focus on these for sake of example.  For starters, tablecloth curtains are bathroom curtains that are literally made from a tablecloth.  The advantage is that as you shop for the perfect tablecloth, you see the edges are all perfectly hemmed so that part of the process has been done for you.  In this case, you would literally purchase a tablecloth in the color and pattern wanted.  Since it would be used for the bathroom window, be sure to choose something small.  After installing the hardware, you could simply place the tablecloth curtain over the rod but if you wanted tabs or a pocket, you would need a simple needle and thread to create them.  From there, you could use strong adhesive or a glue gun to add trim, lace, ribbon, buttons, or other embellishments.

Draped valances are a great choice if your bathroom window has a shade, mini-blinds, or shutter.  All you would need is scarf material or even a pillowcase that has the look wanted.  As with the tablecloth curtains, you would simply drape the valance over the rod but if using scarf material, this could also be wrapped around the outer edges of the rod and then allowed to drape downward.  With felt or fleece, you gain several advantages for no-sew bathroom curtains.  For one thing, these materials are much denser, which means they help block out light but also provide privacy and help with cost efficiency.  Using a glue gun, you could take squares and then glue them together in a pattern you like.  Again, with needle and thread, you could create simple tabs that would be slid onto the curtain rod.

The last option is one that has been used for years and still remains a popular no-sew solution.  Sheets come in hundreds of different colors, textures, patterns, and even density levels.  If you wanted long curtains for the bathroom, you could make the tabs to slide onto the curtain rod and then taking matching pillowcases, preferably those with a fancy border on the end, you would create a valance.  When done, the curtains look as if they were store bought but only you would know the truth.

Have you ever wondered how some bathrooms look as if they were designed by an expensive decorator only to find out the homeowner did all the work?  You know the bathrooms that have a beautiful blend of patterns and colors yet everything seems to pull together perfectly?  Well, you too can achieve the same look for your bathroom simply by learning secrets from experts in the field, which is what we will cover in this article.

Well, that flawless look is not just happenstance but based on very specific formulas that some of the best designers in the world.  With this knowledge, you have the ability to create a gorgeous bathroom with flair but also one that represents your personality and personal style.  No matter what you like, whether it is floral, stripe, dots, animal prints, or something else, you can pull an amazing bathroom together from the bathroom window all the way through each accessory.

The real secret to these amazing bathrooms starts with the fabric and builds from there.  In other words, you should actually choose bathroom window curtains and shower curtain as the foundation on which to build the rest of the room.  From there, you would take the bathroom curtain colors and patterns, marrying them into everything else in the room.  Keep in mind that you need to have a willingness to try various combination’s.  Too often, people shy away from mixing colors and patterns and while it does take time to get it right, you will quickly see what you do and do not like.

Just be careful that whatever primary color you chose does not end up overwhelming the bathroom.  For instance, if you chose bathroom window curtains where the primary color was blue, you want to be cautious in using too much blue.  A good rule to follow is that between 60% of the room should display the primary color chosen with the other colors being used to coordinate and balance.  Now, if your bathroom has white floors and white walls that would account for most of the 60%.  Therefore, as you start the process with fabric, you want to make sure the primary color is another key piece, which would then be followed by introducing other colors and even hues.

As far as accent pieces, which would include artwork and flowers, they would be a part of the other color or colors that represent the 40% but within that, you need a pop of color.  In other words, 60% of the bathroom is your primary color, 30% is your secondary color or colors, and 10% is pop.  To pull the colors out of the bathroom window curtains and shower curtains, the accent and pop color would coordinate but these should be seen in just three to four pieces, meaning you do not want the room to end up cluttered in appearance.

Finally, if the bathroom has furniture, make sure to choose one, neutral color.  This could be whatever you like, brown, natural wood, white, cream, green, black, etc.  By the time you have your new bathroom window curtains on the wall, and your accessories and accents chosen, all the colors would be perfectly balanced.  Then for patterns, you can mix and match if you like, as long as you stick with the percentages of color.

If you have not shopped for new bathroom curtains for some time, you may feel a little overwhelmed once you realize all the options, especially when it comes to patterns,  Today, many bathroom curtains have a designer look, which allows homeowners to create unique rooms that even a few years ago would have been hard to do.  Although there are way too many possibilities to mention in a single article, you will see from some of the patterns we listed just what the market offers.  In fact, buying new bathroom curtains has never been as fun as it is today.

One pattern in particular that is not only fun but also has a sense of style is bathroom curtains with waves.  The great thing about vertical waves is that they come in a huge variety of colors, as well as widths.  Therefore, depending on the color and width of the waves chosen, the curtains take on an entirely different looks.  For instance, white curtains with a broad hot pink wave would be gorgeous for a little girl’s bathroom whereas white curtains with a thinner black wave would be ideal for an adult’s bathroom, one with sophistication.

Another popular choice of bathroom curtains is dots.  Of course, you can choose from more standard designs but you will also find some contemporary options.  In this case, you might choose a white bathroom curtain with neon green dots or a red curtain with white dots.  In either case, the curtains have a more modern look that can completely transform an outdated bathroom into one that is fresh, fun, and even a little elegant.  IN addition to bathroom curtains that feature a single color dot, you will also find those with two, three, four, or even more colors for a more dramatic look.

Blocked bathroom curtains have been popular for some time but now, the market has designs with a different twist.  For instance, to bring some color into the bathroom, you could choose tap top curtains that have see-through blocks of varying colors of purple, pink, teal green and light orange.  These have a fresh look and when installed with white mini-blinds or even shades, they look great.  Blocked bathroom curtains with this type of pattern would be great for a teenager’s room or even a bathroom with a shabby chic decorum.

The two colored panel look for the bathroom coupled with a beautiful coordinating scarf is also nice.  For instance, if you had a beach home or you simply wanted to create a space that is relaxing and tranquil, you could hang white panels on the outside with canary yellow or sage green panels on the inside.  Then for the scarf, choose a soft floral design that pulls in the yellow and/or green with a hint of blue.  Be sure to choose the right rod in this case, one that showcases the entire look.

The last option we wanted to mention for bathroom curtains based on popular patterns is actual lace.  A scalloped lace valance installed over plantation shutters is divine.  However, in addition to the lace bathroom curtain, you would tie bows in the center of the valance to enhance the feminine look.  Then, whatever color of bow chosen would be the color you bring into the room as the primary color.  This is a beautiful option that works well with many styles.

Hanging new bathroom curtains is more exciting than ever before.  Today, the market is flooded with thousands of options to include style, color, texture, fabric, patterns, and more, with current trends being exceptional.  Every year, different trends develop and while you may prefer to do your own thing, it is fun to see what the most popular options are.  Because trends for bathroom window curtains are incredible this year, we wanted to share some of the more popular options.  Keep in mind, along with choosing one of the trends mentioned or perhaps something else, you could also use the trend as a foundation on which to come up with your own ideas

The bottom line is that for bathroom window curtains there are no limitations, even when choosing one of the most popular trends.  As you will see from the information listed below, opportunities are in abundance this year, which makes it exciting and fun to create an entirely different look for the bathroom window.

•    Elegance – Because the bathroom is no longer “just a room”, more and more people are creating an elegant space, one that looks and feels rich and luxurious.  To accommodate this new demand, window bathroom curtains have been created that add class.  To get this look, the first thing is to avoid using long curtains, a mistake that many people make.  In addition, avoid curtains that cover the entire window opting instead for long valances.  One of the top trends is a long pleated, scalloped valance with tassels.  The look is clean, refreshing, and very elegant, especially when going with certain colors to include cream, sage green, and other softer colors.

•    Traditional – A traditional bathroom décor is still very popular but with an updated twist.  In this case, you would choose bathroom window curtains that cover just below the bottom frame but then add a Roman shade or white vinyl mini-blinds.  With a traditional look, you would have more options for color and patterns but the goal would be to keep things relatively simple.

•    Vibrant and Whimsical – Many people still like themed bathrooms but instead of everything being perfectly matched, you would choose curtains that become the room’s focal point.  In this case, jazzed up curtains against an off-white wall is gorgeous but also fun.  The current trend is to avoid patterns such as fish, seashells, or other themed materials, choosing instead multicolored curtains with geometric shapes.

•    Dots – Polka dots are hot right now, especially for bathroom window curtains and shower curtains.  However, the key is choosing dots of richer colors.  In other words, rather than choose more traditional dots, look for curtains or if making your own curtains, fabric that consists of dots of several colors but those within the same color scheme.  Another option would be choosing curtains of one primary color that features coordinating colors randomly placed.  The nice thing about this trend is that the color of the dots could be pulled into the bathroom in various accessories.  Let us say the primary color of the curtains was brown but the dots were three different shades of green, you could use those three shades for a trashcan, silk flowers, etc.  You could even choose a solid brown shower curtain and then add trim of one of the green colors.

•    Children – We also see a hot trend whereby a children’s bathroom is designed to be appealing to everyone but especially great for the kids.  One example would be curtains with blocks of several different colors, with each block depicting a different silhouette.  For boys, this could be fire trucks, race cars, baseballs, etc.  For girls, the silhouettes could be dolls, teddy bears, ballet shoes, and so on.

Although when updating or remodeling a bathroom you would face a number of expenses, the outcome would be worth it.  One expense is new bathroom window curtains and while you do not need to spend a fortune, because the window is a key focal point in the room, you definitely want to invest enough so it looks nice.  Even a small window is one of the first things people see so the right window treatments are critical.  To help you with the budget, we wanted to provide some information on ways you can save money on new bathroom curtains and hardware so that ultimately, you achieve the look wanted but without breaking the bank.

For one thing, you need to remember that in addition to the actual curtains, there will be the expense for hardware to include rod, brackets, and possibly rings.  Again, you do not need to spend a significant amount of money on these items but at the same time, you want quality. Now, for the curtains and hardware, you can save money by shopping outlet stores and looking at options online.  With smart shopping, you could easily save up to 50% off the normal price so spending a little time to look around is one way to end up with high quality bathroom window curtains and hardware but at a fraction of the cost.

You also want to remember that the actual cost would depend on the fabric, size, and even brand.  Obviously, a top brand for bathroom curtains would be more than an off-brand but again, smart shopping means paying less.  A perfect example is that buying at a high-end department store is probably going to cost more than if you purchased the curtains through a different reseller.  In fact, if you have a store where you prefer to buy, find out if they have an online store.  Many times, the price to purchase items, including bathroom curtains and hardware is less online than shopping in person.

Then as mentioned, it is easy to find outlet stores locally, as well as on the internet.  For instance, many of the medium level stores have outlet stores and while you may find the selection to be somewhat less, it would certainly be worth your time to investigate.  Even the time of year could mean a cost savings when looking for new bathroom curtains, as well as high quality hardware.  As an example, most stores have huge sales at the end of the year.  During that time, they are trying to move old inventory so new items can be stocked.  To you as the customer, this means finding a nice selection of curtains and hardware but at a huge discount.

Overstock sales are also a great way to find beautiful new bathroom window curtains and hardware but without spending a lot of money.  Often, some of the larger companies buy too much inventory, which means they lose money by it sitting.  Therefore, they will mark items down substantially just to sell what they bought too much of.  Again, when looking for new curtains, this is a great way to save money while still having a great selection.  The bottom line is that to create a beautiful space that includes new curtains and hardware, you have an abundance of options.  Even using search engines allows you to search for savings locally or online.
