Who knew shower curtain rings could actually be sexy? I mean, I've seen some rings that are average-looking and maybe even pretty (though that might be pushing it), but sexy? Not so much. Geesh, it's hard enough to fins an actual shower curtain that's not covered in some hideous Little House On The Prairie-esque flower print or with childish neon fish designs and atlas-like maps. Fortunately, the New York City-based design line kontextur is bringing a discerning eye to the bathroom, giving this oft neglected space its groove back.
Specializing in modern, sleek and incredibly attractive shower rings, kontextur offers consumers three basic options to select from: the Bamboo Series, featuring grooved acrylic in stark hues like black, white or clear; the Neon + Squared series, boasting playful rings with square-cut tops in vivid neon hues such as red, green, orange, purple and blue; and the Aura Series, featuring high-gloss, acrylic oval rings with metal-colored inserts.
Pictured at top are some rings from the lust-worthy Neon + Squared series (my personal fave), while below it, you can check out the modern, flossy Aura series rings. Don't they make a steamy shower seem like a much sexier proposition?
Kontextur Neon + Squared shower rings, $95 for set of 12; Aura shower rings, $85 for set of 12. Visit Kontextur.com
After reading some reviews on how great these curtain rings from kontextur are, I decided to buy a pack. I was a little hesitant because they aren’t cheap, but I have to say, every review that I read was right. These things are pretty cool! Who knew a couple pieces of plastic could be so much fun? I bought the bright orange ones for my bathroom, and now it’s like there are 12 shiny Ring Pops holding up the shower curtain. They really make me smile!
