What's the best way to make a circular shower rod?
I purchased a couple of hoola hoops and planned on using them but my daughter is afraid they will not be sturdy enough...any other suggestions? Or are they strong enough to work?

Are you needing a circular shower rod for a clawfoot bathtub? Although creative, I think you might run into problems down the road with the hula hoop shower rod. The shower rod I linked to below isn't circular, but it's inexpensive ($39) and made for a stand alone tub such as a clawfoot tub. They can ship it for free to the store. https://www.homedepot.com/p/No-Rust-58-in-Aluminum-Oval-Rectangular-Hoop-Shower-Rod-for-Claw-Foot-and-Standalone-Bathtubs-in-Brushed-Nickel-VHDHOOP-1BN/302183086

Hi,this is Teresa.
I’ve used a hula hoop before on an outdoor shower. But it was one of the older ones when they used to make them bigger and the plastic was stronger than the cheap ones they make today. If you can find a good one like that it will work fine but I wouldn’t trust it with the cheap ones like you would get at the dollar store.
I spaced out evenly and drilled 4 holes for S hooks on the hula hoop. Then used two pieces of parachord of equall length and secured a S hook to all 4 ends of the parachord. I had an old large key ring on hand and run the 2 pieces of chord through. Attached one of screw in hooks to the place I intend to mount the curtain and hung the new curtain rod up by the key ring onto the hook. Then placed my shower curtain loops on and hung it up. It’s been a while but I might have even used 2 of those cheap dollar store curtains. It’s up to you have fun paying with the idea and just a NOTE: remember to tie the parachord to the hula hoop before you cut it so you can decide how high or low you want the hula hoop to hang. Then make your cut and match your second piece to match. Mine turned out great, I wish I had pictures to add but I don’t live there anymore.
