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.  By adding a pocket door you will give your bathroom some added space.  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.

For the walls you should go for a lighter color such as white or cream.  Lighter colors make your bathroom look as though it has opened up.  Dark colors may make your bathroom appear shut in and cave like.  Also to add some illusion of extra space in your bathroom you should hang some mirrors on the walls.  More mirrors will make your bathroom look bigger.

If you are looking into having a whole bathroom renovation the you should look into putting in 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. 

Remember that if you are planning on a major bathroom renovation, write everything that you have in mind down on paper.  Also you may want to hire a professional to do the electrical and plumbing.
