Saskia Pomeroy Plants Shower Curtain, Urban Outfitters

Yesterday’s post about my bathroom makeover got me thinking about shower curtains. I mentioned that I’ve been considering putting removable wallpaper below the chair rail, but D16 reader MaryMargaret commented that the removable wallpaper she recently had installed in a powder room is now lifting at the seams. If that’s how it holds up in a bathroom without a tub/shower, then I have concerns. I don’t want to go the traditional wallpaper route because I’m renting.

Maybe getting my bold pattern fix by way of a great shower curtain is a better option! I still may paint the lower half of the wall another color just to ground the room a bit, too. I keep picturing a super-pale, slightly “dirty” pink.

Reader Sarah V. recommended the shower curtain at the top of the post, this happy, green, plant-covered beauty. I really like Saskia Pomeroy’s illustration style, and it looks like just the right green for my bathroom. So that one is on my list, for sure. I know I definitely want to stay in the green family, and bold, botanical prints are very appropriate for a house of this age.

1. Ann Wessblad SYSSAN curtains, IKEA
2. Leaf Cluster Shower Curtain, Samantha Dolan/Society6
3. Lanai Palm Shower Curtain, Frontgate
4. Swaying Palms Fabric, Tommy Bahama
5. Tropical Neon Shower Curtain, Ghostly Ferns/Society6
6. Ashley Bird Shower Curtain, Pottery Barn

I did a double-take when I saw the price on that Frontgate shower curtain (I had no idea shower curtains could cost $379—I feel so naïve), but I think it’s made from the Tommy Bahama fabric in #4, so that’s another option—buy fabric by the yard, and make a shower curtain. A side bonus would be that I could make it extra-wide to wrap around the short side of my L-shaped tub. Hmmm. The same goes for the IKEA curtains—I’d have to do a little modification, but that would mean the length and width would be perfect. Hmmmmmm.

If you have any suggestions for green/botanical shower curtains that might look great in my bathroom, please share!

Prosecutor says two attackers stabbed NMSU student to death | Lubbock Online

ALBUQUERQUE {AP} Crime scene evidence suggests New Mexico State University student Carly Martinez struggled with two men before she was murdered, prosecutors told jurors at the trial of Jason Desnoyers. The 18-year-old student was driven to a remote Las Cruces mesa , was stabbed more than a dozen times in the head, chest, abdomen, back, thighs and buttocks, and her body was "left to rot" in the desert, District Attorney Susana Martinez said Tuesday. Two weapons were used, a single-edged knife and another instrument, said prosecutor Martinez , no relation to the victim. "Two weapons, two men," she said. Desnoyers, 24, is charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy, tampering with evidence and criminal solicitation. Co- defendant Jesse Avalos , 26, is to be tried separately in September on similar charges. Defense attorney Gary Mitchell contends there was only one weapon. He said Avalos wore a belt with a knife, screwdriver and other tools the night Carly Martin...
