Bathroom Remodeling Ideas

With news of my friend Nancy retiring and designing her own home, it made me think about wanting to redo more of our home. I looked up Atlanta Bathroom Remodeling and got some great ideas to show my husband. We’ve already been talking about doing a few things to the bathroom to improve it.

I started with the flooring. I really want to have nice tiles put into our bathroom. I’d like something in a warm tone but not something too dark. It also needs to have some texture to it so we don’t slip and fall easily. I’d also like to have a separate shower and bath tub installed. Right now we have one of the combination bath and showers. I really want to get one a luxurious bath tub that I can soak and relax in. Of course I wouldn’t mind if it had jets either.

I’m also thinking maybe we can have the toilet in it’s own little room.  I’ve been in plenty other homes to see these and appreciate them.  I don’t want to stare at my toilet while I’m relaxing in my tub. Separating it from the rest of the room would eliminate that problem. It would also provide extra protection from unpleasant odors that may arise.

I’m sure there are a few ideas that my husband will want to add too. He will probably want his own sink. He’s always wanted matching his and hers sinks. I wouldn’t mind having the extra counter space to myself either to be honest. Our bathroom isn’t huge as it is so we’ll definitely have to work with someone to see how we can get everything we want into the final design.

Homemade Cleaners to the Rescue

So after I realized my bathroom needed some extra cleaning, and I didn’t want to use harsh chemicals I did some research.  I found that I can use white vinegar to clean my bathroom and most any dirty surface.  Mix 1 cup of white vinegar with 1 cup of  water and out it in a spray bottle.  I just put this is an empty spray bottle and will use it to clean my bathroom and kitchen.  It’s supposed to cut through soap scum and hard water deposits, not to mention dirt.  This will be good for the counters and floors.

For tougher areas like the inside of the toilet, I’ll use the vinegar undiluted and straight from the bottle.  I’m also going to soak my shower heads in this to remove all of the gunky build up.  I bet once it’s been soaked for a few hours they fixtures will brand new.
