Bathroom window treatments

For the bathroom that you shower in (ie maximal condensation potential), what material curtains/blinds/shades do you have? I really am not a plastic blind fan, but I feel like they might be the best bet for a potentially moist environment. I am also considering bamboo romans, but I am really all about cloth.

Just wondering what you all have? Chat Icon

Re: Bathroom window treatments

I have cotton roman shades from Bed Bath and Beyond.

They are white so they let the light in, even when they are closed. I don't have any issues with the moisture either.

I originally bought the bamboo first, but when they are closed they dont filter the light well so the bathroom was very dark.

How about the faux wood blinds? I think they are vinyl, but look like wood.

we have these. i think they look nice and wouldn't be a problem with moisture. i think cloth curtains would be fine too. i've never really had a moisture problem in my bathroom though. is the window actually in the shower or just in the bathroom? If it's actually in the shower area, maybe something that's easily washable would be good like a lacy fabric?

i would do fabric curtains... they are easy to take down and wash in the washing machine if they were to get gross at all. but, you shouldn't have too much of a problem.

hmm I didn't think of this. It can get a bit dark in there, some extra light would be good. I am going to try white roman shades, and see how they work.

Thanks all Chat Icon
