New York City has been around a very long time, this should be no surprise to any New Yorker,most of the apartment building's in New York City are just as old. With the exception of a few newly constructed buildings. Those building's are usually considered "luxury" buildings, few New Yorkers experience such accomidations. But this doesn't mean that you cannot make a few minor updates to an old apartment to keep up with the times!
Remodeling a bathroom can be a quick, easy and affordable way to upgrade.
Not only is remodeling a bathroom an a quick, easy and affordable project, but it is also a really fun bonding experience as well. Who doesn't love to paint or pick out a new color scheme?
Change is fun!
Some of the most popular paint color's for bathroom's so far this year have been various shades of blue and nuetral green's.
This is just one beautiful example, the color of the paint really brightens up the bathroom, creating the illusion of having more open space.
Choosing the right paint color is easy, there are few more steps involved in remodeling a bathroom that involve a little more creativity and work.
