Selecting the right shower for your bathroom
Along with the bath, the shower is one of the most essential items in the bathroom, so it is important to choose one that is right for you. If you have a bathtub and wish to add a shower, but cannot afford to add a new shower area, then there are a variety of stylish showerheads available. Many stores offer luxurious ranges to suit spa style bathrooms. Handheld showers are a cheaper option and again there are many different types available. Some showerheads offer water saving features and come with a variety of settings giving you full control over the water pressure.
If you are looking to add a new shower area, the choice of shower enclosures is vast. Depending on the space you have available, you could have a shower enclosure than runs along a whole wall. If you have a small bathroom, then a corner shower enclosure may be the best option. Looking at different styles and shapes of enclosure will give you an idea of what will best suit your particular bathroom.
Clear glass looks good on most shower enclosures, but if you want to keep the area private, it may be better to opt for obscured glass. There are many different designs of patterned glass that look good in shower enclosures and also provide privacy. For those on a lower budget, a shower curtain or screen is the best option for combined bath and shower units. Screens look great in stylish bathrooms and shower curtains have many different patterns and pictures for those who are aiming for a more creative theme.

You have some very slick ideas for bathrooms. That has been one of the recurring themes in my own life–looking for a way to make our bathrooms and our kitchen look really glorious, even though those rooms are much too small. One of the glories of the Internet, though, is that there is absolutely no dearth of ideas. I have been looking for ones that seem to me to make sense and posting my results. Right now I have no idea of what I will ultimately do, but I keep hoping I will come up with something really slick.

You could always just have a strip of frosted glass, say from knee to neck height.
