Decorating a bathroom can be fun but sometimes you need to stick with the basics, especially if it is a much-used family or kids bathroom. Things like shower curtains and shower liners for kids need to be practical because they can take a lot of abuse; the shower curtain holes should be reinforced since often children will tug or pull on the shower curtain - if you use shower curtain hooks they should be very sturdy. Even articles such as washcloths and towels should be heavy-duty with minimal ornamentation which can catch or tear or feature colors that might run or bleed while being laundered.

Some practical families stick with white towels and white washcloths so they can be bleached and kept spotlessly clean; they also use white bath mats and other white textiles for cleanliness and ease of use. Plastic laundry baskets are very handy in a family bath – they can be used to store bath toys and shower accessories along with things like clean towels or soiled laundry. If space permits, each child can have a designated laundry basket in a favorite color or bearing an initial.
Perhaps one of the most practical improvements you can make in a family bath is to install a handheld showerhead. Most are designed so they can be installed by the homeowner without requiring the assistance of a plumber. A handheld showerhead makes it easy to shampoo hair, water plants, clean pets and bathe children. They also are handy when you need to clean the tub or shower enclosure. Enjoy a relaxing water massage with a handheld showerhead or use it to target the spray on a tired or sore body part.
