Bathroom Window Curtains Alternatives
The tradition of having bathroom curtains has continued to dominate the scene to such an extent that we often overlook the other options of dressing up the windows. Generally, they provide a romantic or a country look rather than a practical minimal look.
You may consider one of the following five interesting options for decorating bathroom windows.
1. Change the Glass
A very practical and easy way of improving upon the privacy is to have a patterned glass in place of a plane glass. But, if you do not find it convenient to replace that glass, there is that option of covering your present glass with a decorative film. You get these films suitable for different themes. You could give a Victorian style look to your bathroom by using a film that gives the impression of an etched glass. Or you may give a multicolored effect by replacing the plain glass with a tinted glass. Here too, you get films that impart the feeling of a tinted glass.
2. Use a Simple Fabric Blind or Roman Shade
Fabric roller blinds or roman shades offer improved privacy while giving an overall nice finish to the window. They come in a variety of fabrics, colors and designs with or without decorative edgings to suit your plans. For a still heightened effect of your window, you could have a valance along its top.
3. Venetian Blinds
Modern bathrooms have fittings and faucets in chrome finish or in colors of white, grey, black and even pink. The best option for such a mod bathroom would be to have metallic mini blinds in silver color to get a sleek and efficient look, whereas wooden Venetian blinds in cream or natural tones contribute to its enhanced looks.
4. Indoor Shutters
Provision of indoor shutters is another window treatment that looks great in bathrooms. Here you have to take the precaution of painting them to save them from the effects of humidity or steamy atmosphere that is bound to be there. A big advantage here is that you can experiment with different colors to get your style and the desired impact.
5. Add Accessories
Generally a bathroom window without any curtain presents a very bare and impersonal look. You could avoid that look by adding accessories to a window sill. Some of the accessories that com to mind are: Colored vases or candles or may be bath oils in colored bottles. Go ahead and try tropical plants in small pots which could be easily painted to bring sparks to the bathrooms.
