It was pink and had a black rose above the sink. As a child I always hated the black rose tile so would get their plug which was an orange flower and stick it like a suction cap to the black rose. I love the old heavy stand alone sinks like the ones in the pic (and like my Nana had but two taps was really annoying). We also have a try hard federation bathroom that comes from the 90s, you can tell by the feature tile. No idea what to do with our extension bathroom, think I will be doing some Googling!Hello Vintagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17778709699719759088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-91440227342472598412011-09-07T17:26:03.981+08:002011-09-07T17:26:03.981+08:00They are all pretty groovy bathrooms but I particu...They are all pretty groovy bathrooms but I particularly love the second to last one...that vanity is pretty fab as is the aqua of the bath :)<br />xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-61521529944231661172011-09-07T12:32:52.162+08:002011-09-07T12:32:52.162+08:00I LOVE those bathrooms.

Nothing 'matches' in our house. Pieces work together but they are all different.<br /><br />But I do like white minimal, modern bathrooms and that's what we've got, courtesy of the previous owners. The one thing we do want to do is rip out the veneered cabinets and put in something old and characterful.

If money were no object, I'm sure choosing a bathroom suite and tiles would be the most difficult task.<br />I admire the bathrooms in the photographs, but not sure I could handle living day to day with one. Having lived wit Avocado, and now 'soft peach' part of me yearns for a functional, masculine grey, black and chrome bathroom, (with glitterball and pink fairy lights).<br />Look forward to the next 'bathroom' post...lucy joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04863146546863419637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-35730431378751689882011-09-06T20:03:37.953+08:002011-09-06T20:03:37.953+08:00ummmm...there is nothing i don't love about a ...ummmm...there is nothing i don't love about a retro pink bathroom! pic 8 melts my heart. xkit and nancy.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02085478509747985776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704928024259198234.post-40853961500939795232011-09-06T20:02:04.857+08:002011-09-06T20:02:04.857+08:00Haha, I read that as you were PLANNING your new ba...Haha, I read that as you were PLANNING your new bathroom to be bad 80s country style with mould! I thought that was an unusual choice ;-)<br /><br />I like pink as an accent colour in bathrooms, but not sure I could cope with the suite or tiles in pink - I grew up with a bright raspberry bathroom suite which my parents couldn't afford to change for years, the previous owners of our house had also added pink 'scribble' tiles and a wall of mirror tiles etched with a picture of galloping wild horses, all bared teeth and thundering hooves.
