Bathroom Reveal, Part 1

Our bathroom remodels are done!!  We are quite pleased with the results.  Again, we didn't do anything too fancy, so don't expect some magical HGTV moment here.  Things are just fresh and updated a couple of decades.  We still need to add some things to the walls since they seem so empty now, but we're still deciding what to do for sure.  I find it hard to decide what kind of 'art' is appropriate for bathrooms.  Any thoughts?
We'll start with Josh's bathroom since I'm most excited about these changes.  I'll include some 'before' pictures for reference.  Sorry these aren't the best pictures.  Using a flash in this tiny room makes it hard to get colors just right.  The walls are all the same beige color even though they look like different colors in the pictures.

A little better, don't you think?  I'll post pictures of the half bath around lunch time.  It's very similar to this one.  We like things simple and neutral so we're not stuck with something we regret later.  Plus, we can have fun with accessories and easily change them out too.
If you thought the bathroom looked better before, please don't tell me :)

A very manly bathroom and a good fit for Josh too (the height of the shower). . . and no more tile :)

SOOO much better. What will you do with all the time you have freed up from cleaning icky tile bathrooms? As to the question of bathroom 'art', a clock of some type is a must for me or I'd be later than I already am to everything. I think you can hang whatever makes you happy and you enjoy looking at. The only bathroom art that bothers me (I really don't know why) is little 3D plaster cherubs hung on the wall. EVERY house had them in the Midwest and I just don't get it.
