Hi there! The idea for this post started out as a DIY project that I could use for a memorial day get together that we’re having. I wanted to make a little something for the table.

A DIY Clawfoot Tub Shower Curtain for Your Clawfoot tub Shower Combo

May 15, 2017 Allie Ellenbogen

Hi friend, happy Monday! Pretty much since my last post I’ve been firmly camped out in shower curtain land, and am happy to say I’ve made it out to the other side! If you’ve been following along since we bought the house you’ll remember that our main bathroom has a claw foot tub, which means it needs to function primarily as a shower instead of a tub. I searched far and wide for the best way to do this and came up with not a whole lot. I detailed the things I did find in this post and the next thing was to get a shower curtain liner in there so we could at least start using the bathroom. With a little DIY elbow grease I took care of that. And then the next thing the tub needed was an actual shower curtain. Because of a lot of the obstacles I talked through in the previous posts this was a bit of a challenge. Ultimately I figured out that I could use 2 regular sized shower curtains to get all the coverage we needed. We both agreed that it didn’t seem necessary to cover the back because as you can see in the photos it’s not at all visible. And another layer would just block more light from the window. But, I did want the curtains to wrap around the sides enough that you couldn’t tell the back wasn’t covered from the outside. Overall it seemed easy enough, just find a shower curtain we liked and buy two. Welllllll, that’s where I hit a road block. There really are just not many shower curtains out there that I like right now. The ones we did like we expensive. Like $120. Which, when you multiply it times two just felt crazy. To me a shower curtain is like a tablecloth. You don’t want to be too attached to it because it gets a lot of wear and tear and there’s a good chance it’s going to get stained. So spending nearly $300 on shower curtains was something I wasn’t ready to do.

So, I’ve basically been thinking about the house non-stop since we moved in. It’s been both liberating and constricting. Liberating in that it’s just so exciting to have a house to even think about.
