Redesigning the showers overall look is also an option and can be accomplished with new tile, adding a ceramic seat or shelves, adding frosted shower doors for privacy and purchasing high-end fixtures for the shower. For a more open looking bathroom, add sliding doors to a bathtub/shower combination versus using a shower curtain.
