Knowing the answer to the question, “What size is a shower curtain?” can save you a lot of time, money and effort. Here’s why.

A shower curtain is generally made up of two main parts. One part consists of a backing and the other part of the curtain.

A shower curtain has to fit the width and length of your room. You may find that it’s not quite big enough for your room. But, if you measure it yourself you may discover that it’s just right.

Before you buy a shower curtain, you’ll want to measure your room. This will help you figure out how much of a curtain you need and will also help you decide on how large or small a curtain you need.

Take the measurement of your window size. You may need a window that is six inches taller than the one you use as a measuring guide.

If you are looking at a shower curtain for a child, you should consider using two pieces of cloth. If you have a large open doorway and have a window that is too small, then you should put the two pieces on the wall with them facing each other.

This will give you the best fit possible for the curtain. A side curtain would be better than a top piece of the curtain.

The length of the curtain will also depend on the length of the window. You’ll have to make sure that it’s long enough for the desired length of the window.

The distance between the curtain and the wall should be about an inch or so. This will help it stay in place when it’s pulled down.

You can use the end of the curtain to hang on the high corner if you don’t want to purchase one. This is a better way to make sure it stays in place.

Just like the different widths of curtains, there are different lengths of shower curtain as well. There are many styles, materials and colors of the same curtain.

So, before you spend any money or wait for it to arrive at your home, consider getting a professional to help you with your shower curtain measurements. They will save you time and money in the long run.
