SHOWER CURTAIN FAQs

Does the shower curtain come with a plastic liner?

No, you need to purchase a plastic shower curtain liner separately. Check out our Shower Curtain Hardware edit for liner suggestions.

How should I wash my shower curtain?

We do not recommend washing your shower curtain; you should use a professional dry cleaning service only.

How many button hole are there to hang the shower curtain?

The panel has a button hole construction at the top to attach rings. A 72" panel has 12 button-holes and a 84" panel has 15 button-holes.
