Accessorizing the bathroom

A towel bar is a bathroom accessory where towels are hung for easy accessibility. These are used in homes and hotels and can either be just a bar or rounded into a circle or semi-circle. Some are long and some short. Most are fixed to the wall but some are fixed on a stand. The material used is usually plastic or metal – steel and wrought iron. The wrought iron ones can be moulded into any design. Some of the designs available are flowers, birds, animals etc. The bracket used to fix the wall towel bars can be made to order, according to individual tastes. The color of these wrought iron towel bars can be co-ordinated to suit the décor of the bathroom walls and range from the black and brown to unusual colors of blue, green and orange. These vibrant colors look vivid adding color to the bathroom.

Brass and chrome towel bars are also available. These look stunning in the bathroom and give a feeling of luxury with their wonderful finish. However, the presence of humidity in the bathroom makes it essential that these two types of towel bars are maintained regularly or the shine will fade after some time.



Shower curtain rings are usually long lasting and are not changed often. They come in various styles with the complete ring and the hook style rings being the most common. These rings should be chosen after taking the rest of your bathroom décor into consideration. If there is an abundance of metal in your bathroom, choose shower curtain rings to match them. Otherwise the bathroom may look discordinated. If rings for a child’s bathroom are being chosen, bright colored plastic ones will look good and appeal to the child.

While matching the shower curtain rings to the décor in the bathroom, go for a simple set if the shower curtain is heavily designed. If there is a floral print on the curtain, go for shower curtain rings to match the main color of the print.

Most hardware companies are continually upgrading their bath accessories tyring to provide the best quality towel bar and shower curtain ring with good craftsmanship for a perfect fit for any décor.
