Trendy Bathroom Upgrades for a Quick Sell
2. Lighted vanity mirror Home improvement stores, design studios and online retailers carry a variety of lighted vanities in shapes, sizes, styles and light sources (LED, CFL or incandescent) to suit virtually every taste. Installing one is a simple do-it-yourself job that has a big impact on a bathroom’s appearance and usability.
4. Towel warmers Wall-mounted or free-standing, plugin or hard-wired, all towel warmers work the same way; heated bars warm towels hung on the rack, providing a cozy, warm towel every time you bathe. Plug-in versions install easily, while hard-wired ones may require professional installation.
5. Shower foot rest Foot rests are an economical improvement. Some suctioncup styles cost under $20. For a more refined look or enhanced sturdiness, it’s possible to find one that anchors into the wall through screws, or a style built into shower surrounds. If you’re redoing your shower stall, it’s the perfect time to add a stylish, sturdy foot rest.

3. Double-flush toilet Dual-flush toilets use only the water you need to get the job done, so they contribute positively to a home’s overall footprint and can help save on water bills. They’re a lower-cost upgrade, and even more cost-effective when installed by a savvy DIYer.

1. Skylights In rooms where privacy is a c o n c e r n , skylights can provide both natural light and ventilation. They’re beautiful, endowing bathrooms with a major “wow” factor, and practical. Energy Star-qualified no-leak, solar-powered fresh-air skylights can help trim electricity costs by providing natural light and passively venting moist, warm air from the room.

How to Boost Curb Appeal‚ Starting with the Front Door!
Photo Source: Pinterest.com
It’s time for an exterior makeover to add more curb appeal! Whether you’re a real estate agent preparing a house to sell or a homeowner in need of a fresh new look, here are some simple front door tricks that can help boost curb appeal, and ensure visitors and home buyers get a good first impression as soon as they arrive at the doorstep.
4. Accent with lighting. For night-time curb appeal and safety, add a row of exterior accent lighting to illuminate a walking path with groundinsert solar lights. Or consider solar spotlights to bring out landscaping or architectural focal points. Install new matching light fixtures outside the front door, garage door or patio door to create an inviting feel and provide welllit doorways to greet visiting neighbors, guests, or potential home buyers. 5. Create points of interest with plants. Add pops of color by arranging potted plants around the front door, or on a porch or deck. Incorporate planters or container gardens of varied sizes, shapes and colors to add visual interest. Also, planting flowerbeds along driveways and walkways gives off a softer, more inviting feel.

3. Refresh exterior and trim colors. Now’s also time to add a new storm door to help keep out the elements, or to add a refreshing coat of paint on your existing exterior doors for a fresh look. For a dramatic change, repaint the exterior. You can also change trim color to refresh the home’s exterior impact. When updating trim, choose color schemes that match its primary exterior color, or complement it with a fresh twist.
By Courtney Soinski
“When replacing your old front door, choose from one that accents your home’s style, with high-performance features that help keep out air and water, and low-maintenance convenience like durable pre-finished options with coordinating trim,” says door and window expert Kathy Krafka Harkema.
