The bath in this apartment does not have a rod so there is nothing to attach a shower curtain to. I'd like to find something I can use as a shower curtain that doesn't require me to drill or add a rod to the bathroom. Any ideas?

Shower curtain rods are spring loaded so you know. You don't actually attach them to the wall you just twist them so the spring can expand and make it longer unitl it's tight between the two walls.

You could always just buy a shower curtain and a bunch of those suction cups with hooks on them. A better solution might be to use a tension shower rod, which stay in place with springs and require no tools or permanent installation.

Never heard of it!!!! I build houses for a living (master carpenter) i`ve build many bathrooms in my life time, and never heard of a shower curtain with suction cups. I just don't see how it would work. As far as i`m concerned shower curtains go on the outside of the shower, meaning you would have to drag it back and fourth to get in and out of the shower.
The purpose of the shower curtain is to keep the water inside the shower, if you had suction cups most of the time you would push the shower curtain out and drip on the floor. Maybe im just not up to date with shower curtains. I`ll be looking forward to see the outcome of this question and learn.

There are rods that use tension bars and you don't have to install them. Just adjust the tension and length and put them up.
As far as suction cup curtain, I don'tt ever remeber seeing any. Try the tension ord. Target, K Mart, places like that have them.
If the rod is too long, say tub lenght and you can't get a shower length one. Just get a tension rod in the regular curtain section of those stores and use it.

I've never heard of one with suction cups, seems like that would be a problem with all the moisture and humidity of the shower. I know you said you didn't want a rod, but there are tension rods which don't require drilling, but are held in place by adjusting the tension of a rod with springs inside. That's what I have in my laundry room.

You can get a spring-loaded curtain rod from Wal-Mart. It has rubber on each end to help it stay up, and you can adjust the length by pulling outward or pushing in (kind of like an old-fashioned curtain rod). You want to adjust it to be just a bit longer than the area you need, and the springs are what help it stay up. They run about $6-$8.

actually they do sell shower curtains with suction cups, i have one in one of my bathrooms, all you have to do is suction them right up to the celing and a couple to the top of the side of the wall and then your set! the only problem with them is that they tend to fall down easier but hey its better then drillign some holes in the wall lol but it does depend on the type of ceiling you have. they do make different types though. i got mine at bed bath and beyond you could check that out or wal mart , ohh ikea has good ones too!!! or anywhere that sells stuff like that .. and they arent very expensive so thats another plus.. hope this helps

Yes I do hate shower curtains. They are a piece of work to move them around when you need to, such as to get in to the shower.
