Thanks everyone, I didn't even realize my question had been posted here, internet was down and i'm just catching up on my AT! And yes, I'm totally in favor of the good people of Durham making money, I'm a big Duke fan :)

I was hoping for cheaper because spoonflower charges a flat rate minimum from my understanding. And since it's for a shower curtain that will rarely get touched as opposed to a quilt you might snuggle up against your cheek, I could go with a lesser quality fabric. Also since there is no color involved, other than black I wouldn't be using any of their (what I imagine costly) pigments which I figured are factored into the cost.

I didn't even think about copyright infringement since I wasn't going to sell it. I actually got the idea from seeing the print on party favor gift boxes and tags on etsy, which I'm not sure if copyright was cleared for that. Perhaps I'll get a plain white extra white shower curtain and give silk screening a go. Thanks for the link Phalaenopsis.nomnom, I actually looked at that one, but it's not wide enough and that bright red won't work in my grey, pale pink, and white bathroom. I invested in pale pink Restoration Hardware bathsheets so I'm pretty set on that color scheme.

Thanks for all the input everyone!

A great book on this is "Alone in the Kitchen with an Eggplant" - lots of essays on living alone and what was eaten, including recipes. I think this was reviewed on the kitchn site at some point. Great read.

Your bathroom almost makes me weep! So gorgeous! Also loved the movie Evening, very nice jumping off point. And I second whoever said how nice it is to see a really cozy non MCM place.

But yes, where are the clothes kept?

Aww, I'm originally from Fort Worth, so nice to see Cowtown represented in such a lovely way! And I totally miss Garden Ridge, that place is amazing! Great job!

SportsCenter or my boxer-pit snoring - I say that's his lullabye, when I hear him so deep into slumber, I can't help but join in.

Thank you all so much! To those that asked about it, there is no other wall or other side of the bathroom unfortunately, basically there's enough space for the toilet, then the teeny tiny shower stall (24x24 inches) is right next to that, there's only enough space in front of the shower to stand there and get in. Thanks for all the suggestions. I will run them by my landlord and see what he's willing to go for, he's a pretty good guy so I'm hopeful :)

Thanks again!

I love your home! This might quite possibly be my favorite house tour ever.

ooooh I want to play tennis there!

And as Stephen Colbert would say:
Tip of the hat for a new j.crew catalog
Wag of the Finger for "pegging" your pants, yikes!

I had no idea you could really make a real house of straw! I thought that was just for little pigs and huts.

I had Obama-overload, even before he got elected. I agree with Theo, Mrs. Mack and Brandyjane. He seems like a nice enough guy that can deliver a feel good speech, but I'm not drinking the Obama kool-aid or hanging a photo of him in my home. So far it seems he's just been the beneficiary of anti-Bush sentiment, but I do hope that he does do a good job and prove himself worthy of all the hope, optimism, and unicorns.
