I get frustrated when taking a shower and the shower curtain keeps Blowing into the shower on the bottom and clings to us. I tried sewing some weighted magnets along the bottom and that helped minimally. Does anyone have any solutions to help keep the bottom portion of the shower curtain to stay put?
Thank you!

Weighting the bottom is a good idea! Like that. I always head for velcro, but doubt it would hold for any length of time due to the moisture.

I used velcro on the edges on my Dome tent (stitched into the dome) and epoxy glued to the roof (strips in 3 spots). Holds decent over time, yet still have to re-do every once in while.

Thank you so very much for giving me a suggestion. I appreciate that. I’ll have to try the Velcro idea.
Many blessings!

If you come up with a better adhesive, please pass it along.

LOL, the curtain doesn't bother me... It's the side walls.. too narrow

We called FR to see if there was a track available for the bottom and there is none. But we found a fix anyway that works great. Go on Amazon and buy a package of 3 or 4 supermagnets. They are about 1/2 inch wide and 2 inches long. Open up the bottom of the shower. There is an oval shaped door that is screwed on. Then get some super glue and glue the magnets to the inside wall at the bottom of the shower in three or four spaces. Next attach something magnetic to the bottom of the shower curtain (we used round washers). Before gluing the washers make sure they line up with the magnets. You will not be able to see the magnets since they are inside the plastic base. But since they are so strong you merely need to slide the washers around until they stick to the plastic tub. Once you have found where they stick you can glue them to the curtain. The magnets are so strong you can also glue the washers to the inside of the curtain so they are less visible. Some people have actually sewn them onto the curtain. Once you get into the shower you just push the curtain out until it hits all 3/4 magnets and you now have a curtain thats stays put away from your body!!! Works every time. People were amazed how the curtain sticks to the base of the shower since they do not know it is magnitized from inside. Magic
