However, you need to choose the right kind of curtain for your specific needs. There are many different types, including solid colors, patterns, and prints.</p>

This material is known for its elegant looks. The material is not waterproof, though, and must be handled gently when moving. It can cost about $100 a yard.</p>

The standard size is 70 inches by 72 inches. If your shower is taller or smaller, there are special sizes available.</p>

It's recommended that you wash it in cold water with a mild detergent and line dry it. Using the lowest dryer cycle will also prevent it from shrinking.</p>
