Your bathroom is a room where you spend a good part of each day. You start your routine there in the morning, you end it there in the evening, and during the day you spend significant time . . . doing some of your best thinking. Eventually, you get tired of looking at the same surroundings - this of course goes for any room in your home! - and you feel the need to change things up a bit. This is known as “modernizing” your bathroom, and there are a number of ways to do it on a relatively small budget.

Keeping your bathroom looking modern doesn’t require that you buy the most expensive technology, but some new additions will definitely be called for.

• Select a new bathtub or shower that won't bust your budget.
