I loooove the look of a structured cornice over window drapery- I always have! It creates a more finished look and can add interest to the space through it's shape or upholstery. But lately, I have seen designers take cornices to the next level by utilizing them as shower curtain toppers! The bathroom can also be a fun place to get a little more funky with the embellishments and design. For instance, I love the pom pom tassels designer Bailey McCarthy used for this shower/bath:
And how fun is this cornice and curtain combo utilizing a Caitlin Wilson textile? So glam and feminine!
A cream drapery accented with a tape trim border creates a tailored, chic look:
This design blogger actually created her shower curtain cornice herself! Talk about an ambitious DIY. The bird fabric on the cornice is originally from a Target shower curtain, if you can believe that. Click here to view her tutorial.
So what's your take on corniced shower curtains- love it or leave it?
It's a great look and adds importance to this often overlooked space - love the Liz Caan interiors one!!
ReplyDeleteWow, I haven't seen anyone point this out before and I absolutely love it. That last one with the Target (!) cornice is awesome.

I think it is a great look. Adds a bit of class to an otherwise overlooked area! My sister in law has one in her guest bath and it always feels so classy.
ReplyDeleteso, so chic!! I love them. Welcome back!! How is the Mrs?!! xx
ReplyDeleteI totally recognized Bailey's! I absolutely love the look! But I wonder how practical it is, at least for us. In our house I would totally have to have removable, washable curtains! Two big dogs (who regularly need showers) and a toddler are nothing to mess with ;) Can't believe that Target one! One heck of a DIY! Thanks for sharing!

That takes me back!! My mom had a corniced shower curtain made for my sister and I's bathroom when she had it re-done back in the day. It felt so fancy. I think it was floral fabric, and we had striped wallpaper with a floral border if I recall correctly! haha
ReplyDeleteSo elegant. Very classic look!
ReplyDeleteI love these too. They really do "make" a bath area and are especially great for a smaller bathroom. Think of the impact these would make in a guest bathroom. I'm ready to order some right now!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love this. So pretty.
ReplyDeleteWow I'm so impressed at the DIY. Definitely not my gift. Love a tailored look.

Next house. I want this!
ReplyDeleteI love it so much. Needs the double curtains though, like all of the examples you've chosen. It really adds a finished polish to a space that often gets overlooked.
