escape and relax -- so be sure to find products
to enhance this space. Today’s showerheads
come in a variety of designs -- wall-mount,
hand-held, multifunction, rain-shower or a
combination of all. Find the one that suits your
showering style, and be sure to choose a finish
to coordinate with the rest of your bath.
Need more space in your tub or shower?
Try adding a curved shower rod. In addition
to adding a unique style statement in your
bath, it’ll add up to 6 more inches of elbow
room. Finish the look with a new set of Moen
double shower curtain rings that offer a unique
double-hook design to separate the decorative
curtain from the liner.
Accessories:
Bath accessories, such as
robe hooks, paper holders or towel bars, are an
ideal way to keep your room looking neat and
coordinated. But the latest
products
can also add thoughtful
functionality -- and even
safety -- to your bath.
For instance, are you tired
of finding towels on the counter or floor,
rather than hanging on the towel ring? Put
this pet peeve in the past with the new Moen
retractable towel ring. The new accessory
offers the traditional benefit of a towel ring,
along with a retractable cord to allow the towel
to be used while it remains neatly in place.
Next, for added safety with style, try
accessories with designer grab bars, which
combine the safety benefits of a grab bar with
one of three common bath essentials -- a towel
bar, a paper holder and a shelf -- making each
item functional and fashionable. Adding these
discreet safety solutions will keep your bath
looking great while still being practical.
Accents:
Once you’ve chosen all the
hardware for your bath, you’ll need to think
of the softer accents to help pull your design
together. A new shower curtain, decorative
towels, throw rug and curtains will add the
final finishing touches to your new space.
Step 4: Install and enjoy
Once you’ve made your product selections,
it’s time to start your update. Luckily, each of
these projects can be accomplished quickly,
and they are simple enough for even a novice.
Just be sure to follow the
instructions on each
product’s packaging and,
in no time at all, you’ll
have a beautiful and
delightful bath with added storage and safety
solutions.
