I recycle them, too. I have kept a handful of cards and letters that have sentimental value, and in those, I wouldn't punch holes. I might consider this for next year as a space-saving way to display the current season's cards, but I don't like to accumulate things that don't actually have a use.

I agree with everyone who things the palm tree border should go. I also think the artwork is distracting and doesn't coordinate with anything in the room. I'd either replace the miniblinds with wider (wood or faux) blinds, which I think look more modern, or ditch them all together and frost the glass. I'd also get that clock off the sink counter - it's just not a bathroom clock to me.

I would NOT paint the woodwork around the window, even though it does starkly contrast with the rest of the room. A new owner could easily paint the trim, but it's difficult to undo. It looks like it's in good shape, and it looks like you've left the rest of the trim (in the bathroom, anyway) natrual.

As far as the rest of the room goes, I think what you change depends on what you keep. I think you could paint the vanity and mirrors black and update the hardware, and it would give the room a much more modern feel, without changing much else. If you're going to keep the shower doors, then the vanity and mirrors should be updated - at least the hardware. If you're going to replace the shower door with a curtain and rod, a curved rod with a white curtain would be nice - just be sure to hang it back a few inches so the closed curtain doesn't make the room look too narrow.
