Oh, shower curtain rings are a good idea. (Then again they might require buttonhole bars for the hooks because I don't want to cut holes.) Do you find any heat escapes out the top?
That's what I put the pelmet over the top for, it seems to work well - the laundry it blocks off is really draughty and uninsulated and the cold and heat does not really get though at all.
I sewed some tape across the back with gaps to put the shower rings through, which means the top of the curtain is above the rings rather than hanging below, which also reduced the gap air could get through considerably.
Smart! I'm in a rental so might have to skip the pelmet though (I find even masking tape leaves sticky marks behind and the poor quality paint is fragile)
