When you think of bathroom decor, you might first think of paint jobs or pictures you’ve hung. Or you could think of your sinks and faucets. What you might not think of is your shower curtain and the hooks that hold them up. After all, you usually just shove it around so you can get in and out.
But a proper shower curtain can elevate your bathroom’s aesthetics or change the atmosphere entirely. And, if you’re going to upgrade your curtain, you may as well grab some new hooks to replace your rusty or broken ones.

Liners
Many shower curtains are made with the assumption that you’ll pair them with a shower curtain liner. The liners are mostly plastic, meant to take the brunt of the water so your curtain can stay dry and remain the attractive focal point of your bathroom.
Many shower curtain hooks also bear this pairing in mind and have two separate sections so your curtain and liner can hang with some space between them. This isn’t always necessary, though. If you have a shower and bathtub combo, the walls of the tub portion can keep the curtains separate enough.
