A shower curtain bender for holding an end portion of a hanging shower curtain in close proximity to a vertical wall placed on one end of the shower enclosure to prevent shower water spray from splashing outside the enclosure from between the hanging shower curtain and the enclosure end walls comprises a pair of pivotal arms containing a series of slots superimposed on the last few attachment holes of the curtain to receive the hanger hooks, one of said arms bends the attached curtain into the shower enclosure and in close proximity to the vertically disposed enclosure end wall. A wedge positioned at the pivot between the two arms enables the curtain to be placed adjacent the compartment end wall without drooping. Additional pivot points enable the shower curtain to be folded neatly to one side or the other of the shower enclosure.
