The $8.98 Shower Curtain Makeover

So, it's the shower curtain's fault.  It all started with an innocent trip to Target.  I was checking out the clearance end-caps when I found a great (there was only one) striped shower curtain that was marked down to $8.98!  It was really nice, Fieldcrest brand, heavy fabric - a great deal right?  I thought it would be great for the boy's bathroom and I reminded myself that their current shower curtain is over 10 years old!  I'm a pro at justification - ha!

Okay, so you see where this is going right...after buying new artwork, accessories, towels and a rug I've made the $8.98 shower curtain work.

The two nautical-themed canvases are new - found them at TJ Maxx.  The oar I hung on the back wall above the shower curtain is new - a find from Home Goods.  The rug and towels are new - from Target.








Don't the canvases match the stripes in the shower curtain perfectly?






The soap dispenser, tissue holder and trash can are all new - purchased at Stein Mart.  The three hooks and pails above the towel bar were purchased at LaurieAnna's in Canton a long time ago.





So...the boy's bathroom has gone from a safari feel to a calm nautical feel and it's a really nice change!  I'm just a teensy bit worried about what surprises I might find in those pails...

Hard to believe that will all the redecorating you do, you hadn't changed the Safari theme. I love that shower curtain! Gotta love the Target Clearance End Cap.
