Please show me your green bathroom/shower curtain

We have just taken our wallpaper down in our guest bath and are about to paint the walls. I want to paint it green. I am trying to find a shower curtain that I like so that I can choose a paint color. I am thinking of something like BM georgian green. My style is traditional.

Are you wanting a solid green shower curtain to match the walls? Or do you want a shower curtain with a print? I always do my walls first, then find the shower curtain in the same color scheme, but I don't use a solid color. I have a petite floral pattern on my curtain and I use colors from that and the wallpaper for nick naks.

No, I would like a print. I thought it would be easier to pick a curtain, then choose the paint.

Weedyacres...here you go. I wish that I put a cupboard below, but originally the toilet was going in that nook and it wouldn't have worked. The other bookcase is on the other side in our bedroom. This was empty space because we pushed the tub up to give the toilet more room. I hate dead space, so I put the shelves in. It ended up that there still wasn't enough room for the toilet...bad measuring on the part of the plans. This room was done in two parts, so it was hard to get a good feel for the space until all the plumbing had been roughed in and walls of the old space were taken down. I guess this is more than you need to know. I haven't figured out what will go in the shelves yet.

I have small guest/second bath and every part of me wants to rip out the small tub/shower and replace it with a walk in shower. I don't take baths, I am sure none of my guests will take baths. However, I have decided to eliminate the bath in the master, so I think I forced to leave the bath in the second bathroom. As much as I hate it, it's going to have to stay I guess so the home has at least one for re-sale. The other part of that is that if I ever did have a friend with kids visiting, they do need a bath for the little ones. If I had all the money in the world and was planning to die in the home and never sell I would not bother keeping any bath tubs at all!

jewel, I think it might be the lighting, because our Mannered Gold "in real life" appears a bit darker and richer than the Blonde, but still complementary to the Blonde. The photographer who took these shots was taking pics for a homebuilder's competition and was using all kinds of lenses and things, so color might appear a bit off, or "pea colored." That being said, I initially purchased a sample can of Mannered Gold to try in the front guest bedroom and did not like it all. However, love it in the bathrooms and foyer.

This is my current bathroom. Its five by six, so 30 sq ft. We also do have a very small linen closet just outside the room for storage of stuff like toilet paper. Unseen is a small cabinet over the toilet for medicine cabinet overflow, the cat litter box wedged between the sink and toilet, the towel hooks behind the door and the radiator on the wall opposite the sink. It's not a great bathroom by any means. It's just fine for one person at a time. Or one person, one cat. You can do what you need to do. It's the nicest bathroom I've ever had, but I've lived in some pretty terrible homes in the past. It can be very uncomfortable when the two people try and share it. The radiator is steam, not hot water. It gets very, very hot and bare hiney plus hot radiator is a bad combo, as there really isn't adequate clearance for one to walk behind someone standing at the sink. Also, you have shut the bathroom door before you sit on the toilet because there isn't room to do it afterwards. I think even one more foot in either direction would make a huge difference with the comfort level of the room. At least I would be able to walk past my husband shaving at the sink without a hot rear. When we move to the new place, the bathroom,will be something like three times the size of this one. What I would do if I had they money is carve the one huge bathroom into a modest but sizeable full bath plus a powder room.

I know this isn't what you have in mind for a guest bath, but this is my sons bathroom with a brighter green wall color (Glidden Laurel Wreath.)

This shower curtain came from the previous home and wasn't the right green color for the walls. It's there I promise and looks better in person! lol

I had a heck of a time finding something to match the wall color, and finally found the perfect green. However, once the curtain was hung, you cannot see the green very well.

Are you set on matching the wall color to the shower curtain? If not, try a contrasting color.

I painted my new basement bathroom a nice sage green, SW Grassland. My shower curtain is midnight purple (Chris Madden collection from JCPenney) and my towels are a mix of dark purple (eggplant-ish) and "pumpkin". Sorry, no picture as I haven't put up the shower curtain rod yet.

Love the shower curtain! What's nice about it is you can use almost any color of green, it doesn't have to be a direct match to the curtain. If your bathroom is small, I'd go for a light green.

I really like that shower curtain! I agree - a lot of greens would work with it. I think mine would look nice. It's SW Softened Green.
