ICRYSTRL CLEAR WHTER CONDITIONING 1260 N. Green St. McHenry 385-2775 With summer sunlight shin­ ing in, the bathroom you thought was merely dull can now show up as dreadful. Drab tile all over, a cramped little window or--worst of all--exposed plumbing pipes are impossible to miss in all that bright light. But take heart. Count on color to transform this eyesore into a jewel without spending a fortune. Just think of the room as an artist's palette and "paint" on your design. To help your color scheme stand out, make sure fixtures, tiles and floor sparkle in con­ trast by keeping them clean and bright with new, non-abrasive Bathroom Fantastik® disinfec­ tant, deodorizing cleaner. Just spray the bathroom cleaner on all washable surfaces and wipe with a sponge, clean cloth or paper towel; your bath­ room will be clean, fresh- smelling, disinfected and resis­ tant to mold and mildew for up to two weeks. The most common dull bath­ room problem is wall-to-wall white. If that's what you're stuck with, you could give it a sun­ shiny look by adding lots of yel­ low: a solid yellow rug and towels, and shower and window curtains blooming with yellow flowers. You might add a floral picture on the wall. The bandbox look of red, white and blue in geometric shapes always rates a salute. All you need to achieve this is a fluffy navy rug, matching towels, and shower and window cu r t a in s i n a sha rp g raph i c design. You can achieve an equally striking effect no matter what color your bathroom fixtures are. Washed-out blue seems to turn into a charming pastel when it's accented with olive green; even tan can look terrific if you team it with brown and bamboo. Just use your imagination, don't be afraid to try offbeat col­ ors, and you'll be delighted with the results.
