Most bathrooms with the so-called “wow factor” feature elegant fi xtures and luxury additions, and many of these can be added inexpensively. Here are some ideas for giving your bathroom that extra zing on a budget. your vanity hardware will bring another touch of elegance. Don’t forget scented candles. Candles create a warm, cozy atmosphere adding both mood and, if you like, a pleasing scent. Towel warmer Vanity makeover Creating a focal point is always a good place to start when considering renovating your bathroom. Two easy ways to add cozy elegance is to center the room around your vanity. If your vanity has good bones, there’s no need to start from scratch. Adding some new door and drawer pulls, fi xtures and a fresh coat of paint can make the room pop. Add new, upscale accessories to complete the look. Tired of that old mirror or one that doubles as a medicine cabinet? Pick out a new, larger mirror and frame it and surround it with a DIY frame, maybe shimmery glass tile surrounded by reclaimed wood, to bring it to life. If your vanity has good bones, there’s not need to start from scratch. Th ere’s nothing as luxurious as warm towels when you step out of the shower or bath. Installing an attractive towel warmer, whether attached to the wall or free- standing, is another easy, inexpensive way to create a spa-like look for your bathroom and provide you with extra warmth. With that new towel warmer, you may also want to upgrade your towels and washcloths with fancy newer versions featuring a plusher, more absorbent luxury feel. Th e shower Without spending on a complete upgrade, you can add luxury touches to your shower that will bring you comfort and add the “wow” factor. Consider a rainfall shower head and upgraded shower shelves. Adding a curved curtain rod — and an elegant new curtain that matches your towels and rugs — can create more space and a refreshed look. Get inspired Need more ideas and inspiration? Visit your local home improvement store or check out the boards online at such sites as Pinterest. You’ll fi nd no shortages of suggestions and ideas to add the coveted wow factor to your bathroom. Lighting Bathrooms are all about lighting — bright in the morning to shave or apply makeup; lower light in the evening or whenever you want to relax in a bubble bath. Th e fi rst easy update is a dimmer switch. But remember, there’s more to changing a switch than connecting a few wires. You’ll need to check the grounding and box size for a safe job. Also, make sure to upgrade the wiring if necessary to make it safer and meet code requirements. Check with a local electrician to ensure you meet these requirements. Adding new accent lighting can also brighten your bathroom. Elegant dual sconces in fi nishes that match WELCOME ERIC NITZCHKE!

I am intimately familiar with the Central Oregon Real Estate market having lived here for 15 years and raising my 12 year old son. As a private pilot in my free time, I’ve employed the same philosophy when fl ying and conducting business. ‘Always conduct your pre-fl ight and never fl y fat, dumb and happy’. Situational awareness in a key element to getting the plane off the ground and to its destination safely. Dave Feagans, owner of Windermere Central Oregon Real Estate, and the pro’s he’s assembled have proved their value as a progressive, nimble customer-centric organization of over achievers. I look forward to adding to an already highly talented group here in Central Oregon. ~Eric Nitzchke, Broker BEND REDMOND 807 SW Industrial Way 541þ388þ0404 821 SW 6th Street 538 SW Highland 541þ923þHOME WINDERMERE COMMERCIAL 538 SW Highland 541þ410þ3484 SUNRIVER MADRAS The Village at Sunriver 541þ323þ5888 161 SW 5th Street 541þ475þ7001
