If you feel like you are ready for a new bathroom or you need to update what you have there are many ideas that you should run through.  Any ideas are good but it also a good idea to out them all down on paper that way your contractor will know what your are thinking about.  Many things can be done to your bathroom to spruce it up from adding a mirror to changing the color of the paint.

If you are planning to change to door, pocket doors do not need a wide arc to be opened.  This will give you some added room in you bathroom.  Also to add some space to your bathroom you should get rid of the closets they are great but the shelves could go in the hall and you can use shelves or hanging mounts for everything in your bathroom.

When changing the paint color you should go with a lighter color like whites or cream colors.  By doing this it will appear as the bathroom had opened up.  These lighter colors are better then dark colors because dark colors give a closed in cave like feeling.  If you hang lots of mirrors in your bathroom it gives an illusion as thought the bathroom is larger then it is.  The more mirrors that you hang the more space it appears that you have.

If you are gong to do a total makeover for your bathroom then you must look into installing a stand up shower.  Stand up showers that sit in the corner are the best choice because they will give you some extra floor space.

Whatever it is that you choose to do to for your bathroom renovation if it is going to be a larger renovation plan ahead and write in down on paper.  Another good thing to do is to hire a professional to do the confusing work.
