Ladies and Draco-

Do any of you know where I can purchase a shower curtain for a clawfoot tub/shower? I've been looking but there seems to be so many different opinions on the subject (at least online). We are moving soon and I'm having a hard time figuring out which kind to buy. I've read if you don't get the correct type, the curtains will billow while you shower. Anyone have any experience with this?

I have an awesome shower curtain that I got from Walmart that has magnets on the bottom.

For a claw foot tub? I haven't looked there, I assumed they wouldn't have speciality curtains.

Sue you are correct, the hanging rod is very important and fortunately already up. I need to find a shower curtain that is 180" wide unless I want to sew three together.

I have two standard size curtains in my claw foot tub. One around the back, one around the front. That leave it open to get in from either end. I try to overlap the hangers to avoid gaps. It works for us. I assume you have the overhead clawfoot rod to hang them from.

Yes, that is installed already. I found some c shaped curtain hooks so I can push the curtain all the way around the back, assuming I find one wide enough. I may have to do what you are, using two.
