Drape: Photo Shower Curtains

This Birmingham outfit makes custom, full-printed stall- or tub-size curtains from any hi-res photo or digital image between two and seven megs. One caveat: they're picky about obscene, vulgar, or hateful images, so for something along those lines, you'll just have to mount a shower mirror.

Deck the stalls with custom curtains at PhotoShowerCurtain.com
