Shower curtains are generally a feature of bathroom suites which incorporate a shower over the bath: the curtain is a simple yet effective means of preventing shower spray from soaking your bathroom. The popularity of the shower curtain is perhaps in part down to its budget- friendly design : while you can spend more, a decent, simple shower curtain need only set you back a few dollars. If you have kids, the addition of a brightly coloured shower curtain is a simple way to add child-appeal to your bathroom. From cartoon characters to jungle animals to aquatic creatures (arguably the best choice for a bathroom!) , child- friendly shower curtains come in a plethora of styles, all of which can help to soften an adult space and make it more welcoming for little ones. If yours is an adult only household, you’ll find that shower curtains can bring to your bathroom a riot of colour or a wealth of intricate design that you’d pay considerably more for were you to add the same design, in ...

By Rachel Stuhler Aug 21, 2017 In the days after the birth of my second child, anxiety took over my mind and nightmares consumed my sleep. As soon as I'd drift off, I'd remember the nurses crowding around me, speaking rapidly, but I couldn’t understand their words. I'd remember picturing my 3-year-old son’s eyes — bright and expressive and the clearest blue I’ve ever seen. I hadn’t gotten to say goodbye to him before coming to the hospital, and in that moment, I was sure I never would.
