The magic of the holiday season often begins the moment Halloween decorations are packed away, and I am certainly one to embrace that festive spirit! Even before my kids shed their costumes, I’m already counting down the days until Christmas. My passion for holiday decorating knows few bounds; I aim to infuse every corner of our home with cheer (you can even find delightful free printable wall art here to help you get started), meticulously preparing for the joyful chaos of guests and celebrations. While the Christmas tree waits until after Thanksgiving, I dedicate significant effort to deep cleaning the house multiple times before the “big day.” My primary focus gravitates towards high-traffic areas where guests will gather, with the bathroom being a top priority.

Maintaining a pristine and inviting bathroom throughout the busy holiday period can feel like a full-time endeavor. To ease this task and enhance the festive atmosphere, I love to blend charming decor with highly effective cleaning solutions. My secret weapon for transforming the guest bathroom into a holiday sanctuary involves two key elements: a stunning DIY Christmas Ornament Shower Curtain (which you’ll find detailed below) and reliable cleaning products like the Scotch-Brite® Disposable Toilet Scrubber and Scotch-Brite® Disposable Toilet Scrubber Refills. I conveniently pick these up at Target, making holiday cleaning not just easier, but surprisingly more enjoyable!

DIY Christmas Ornament Shower Curtain

Creating this festive shower curtain is a wonderfully rewarding project that adds a unique and personalized touch to your holiday decor. It’s surprisingly simple and yields impressive results that will delight your guests. Here’s everything you’ll need to get started:

What you’ll need:

  • Two Panel Curtains: I highly recommend using two panel curtains (typically 38×84 inches each) instead of a standard shower curtain. This clever trick creates the illusion of a higher ceiling in your bathroom, instantly making the space feel larger and more luxurious. To achieve this, simply raise your existing shower curtain pole as high as comfortably possible and hang your two decorative panels. Then, install a second, lower pole at your shower’s actual height to hang your plastic shower curtain liner behind the festive panels, ensuring practicality meets style.
  • 4 Ornaments: Choose ornaments that complement your existing bathroom decor or your desired holiday theme. Consider varying sizes, textures, and colors for a more dynamic look. Shatterproof ornaments are an excellent choice for a bathroom setting.
  • Wired Ribbon: I purchased four 9-foot rolls of wired ribbon. Wired ribbon holds its shape beautifully, making it ideal for crafting elegant bows and ensuring your decorative elements stay perfectly in place. Select colors and patterns that enhance your chosen ornaments and overall holiday scheme.
  • Ornament Hooks: These small but essential hooks will secure your ornaments to the ribbon and allow you to hang them from your shower curtain rings or grommets.
  • Garland: A festive garland, whether evergreen, sparkly, or beaded, can be draped along the top of your shower curtain rod or integrated into the design for an extra touch of holiday magic.
  • 4 Bows: These can be pre-made or crafted from your wired ribbon. Matching or contrasting bows will add a charming accent to your ornaments.
  • Scissors: A good pair of sharp scissors will make cutting ribbon and other materials precise and easy.

How To:

Follow these simple steps to bring your beautiful Christmas Ornament Shower Curtain to life:

Step 1: Prepare Your Ornaments with Bows. Begin by taking one of your chosen bows and securely tying or attaching it to the top of an ornament. Ensure the bow is positioned neatly and firmly, creating an elegant visual anchor for the hanging display.

Step 1: Tying a festive bow onto a Christmas ornament

Step 2: Cut and Attach Your Ribbon. Next, unroll your wired ribbon and cut it into your desired lengths. The length will determine how low your ornaments hang. For my design, I found that cutting one large ribbon roll in half provided the perfect length for each ornament. Once cut, carefully poke an ornament hook through one end of your ribbon. Then, attach this hook to the back or top of your prepared ornament (the side opposite the bow). This creates a secure loop from which your ornament will hang.

Step 2: Cutting ribbon to length and attaching an ornament hook

Step 3: Hang and Adjust. With your ornaments and ribbons prepared, it’s time to hang them! Take the ornament hooks attached to your ribbons and carefully hook them onto your shower curtain hooks, or directly onto the grommets of your panel curtains if they have them. Once all your ornaments are hung, step back and adjust the ribbons to ensure they hang evenly and create a visually appealing cascade. You can vary the heights slightly for a more dynamic and organic look.

Step 3: Hanging finished Christmas ornaments on a shower curtain

Isn’t that absolutely charming? The beauty of this DIY project lies in its endless customization possibilities. You can truly make it your own! Imagine adding larger, more elaborate bows and perhaps skipping the individual ornaments for a different aesthetic. Or, consider incorporating multiple types of ribbon—mixing textures like velvet with glitter, or plaids with satins—to create a rich, layered look. For an extra touch of whimsy and sparkle, you could hang shimmering stars, delicate snowflakes, or even lengths of curling ribbon that dance with every movement. The choice is yours to create a unique and magical holiday statement in your bathroom!
