Bathroom Decor Featuring Horseshoes

Bathroom decor can fit any theme and any personality. It can also fit any lifestyle.

If you want a bathroom theme that is western, cowboy, or riding, you might enjoy bathroom decor that features horseshoes.

Horseshoe bathroom decor can be rustic, with emphasis on wrought iron fixtures and accessories. It can just as easily be upscale, the horseshoes a part of an English equestrian theme.

Horseshoe Bathroom Decor with Wrought Iron

Wrought iron products are easily found for horseshoe bathroom decor. Sometimes wrought iron horseshoes stand alone. Other times, they come with a strand or two of barbed wire. Look for toilet tissue holders, facial tissue box holders, towel rings, and towel bars, all supported by horseshoes. Wrought iron mirror frames often feature horseshoes also.

Horseshoe shelf brackets can hold a shelf or two in your bathroom. A horseshoe wine rack makes a wonderful towel holder and no one will guess that you are mixing kitchen and bathroom decor. Simply roll bath towels and insert them into individual holes in the rack.

Horseshoe Bathroom Decor in Other Metals The horseshoe design appears in many metal products. Don't limit your search to typically bathroom decor. Horseshoe-shaped hardware can replace the standard hardware on cabinets and drawers. For a cowboy/western look, towel rings and racks often feature a horseshoe with a mounted cowboy in the middle. Cherish's Country Store has an array of clever horseshoe bathroom decor items. Their toilet tissue holder is a horseshoe with a hook. You simply slip the roll over the hook. Matching horseshoe hooks hold clothing or a robe. Their horseshoe napkin holder, meant for the kitchen, would be perfect for fingertip towels. From another source, a triple horseshoe, double candleholder provides soft candlelight for your bathroom decor.

Horseshoe Bathroom Decor in Softer Materials

Horseshoes need not be hard metal to complement your bathroom decor. Shower and window curtains can carry a horseshoe motif ? or horseshoe and horse pattern. Horseshoe shower hooks work well with such a curtain. You might find just the shower curtains you need at Kickin' Horse Shoe Creations.

Bath towels and hand towels can carry a monogram inside a horseshoe. A pair of linked horseshoes is also beautiful on towel sets.

Miscellaneous Horseshoe Items

Add tumblers with a picture of a horse's head surrounded by a horseshoe. At Hoofprints, we found a very unique horseshoe pottery vase that would be great as a toothbrush holder. A matching soap dish is also available there.

Your horseshoe bathroom decor will look good with a horseshoe switch plate, too. For amusement, add a horseshoe doorknocker on the outside of the bathroom door.

As a finishing touch, hang a real horseshoe on the bathroom wall. Superstition says you should hang it with the ends pointed upward so your luck will not run out.
