A liner is a liner, not a curtain. I put a white liner (inside the tub) behind the curtain (outside the tub).

I hang the "right" side facing out (facing the inside of the shower curtain). "Wrong" side facing into the tub.

(Edited--I had written it backwards! LOL)

So these are really intended only for use with separate curtains? I often see just a "liner" used by itself in homes and hotels, and some of them, like the grey striped 'Saltgrund' I just bought at Ikea are clearly making some attempt at looking good on their own.

The liner works better facing out, that it is designed in such a way that it sheds water .... Liners, by definition, are meant to be used with an outer surface.

I got one at BB&B that doesn't need a liner. White on white stripes, $20, I love it. Smooth on both sides, keeps water inside. No vinyl smell. I'll never go back.

That sounds nice linelle. Have you ever seen a curtain and liner that splits down the middle? That's what I am currently looking for.

jerzee, like window curtains that are on both sides and meet in the middle? Wouldn't that create a major water breach zone, unless you made sure the two sides overlapped?

I think think it may be for a 3' long shower; most curtains and liners are 6' long. I simply take scissors to the liner and carefully cut them in half, which also means each one lasts twice as long as I later replace the first half with the second. This would be more difficult for a curtain though if like me you don't have a sewing machine.

I think you just overlap the two center edges but it may depend on where your splash zone is as to whether that would be successful. At first I was looking at the glass bath screens but I thought those had even more potential for splashing.

I've never understood the need for both a liner and a curtain other than to double sales. I use a simple cotton shower curtain. I keeps water in the shower and dries quickly enough. I wash it regularly and it stays clean and fresh.

Wow Only 1 answer, 1st one, was even close to the question this person asked, did anyone even read the question before answering, anyway thx for the answer, 1st one lol.

@Laura Tansey lol I thought it was just me!! Like thanks but can you focus on the question! 😂
