The reality is: Pink bathrooms are a wonderful part of our home design heritage. And there is no doubt in our minds whatsoever that they are poised for a comeback -- starting here, starting now.

Time capsule pink bathrooms

time capsule pink bathrooms There’s pretty much nothing we find more exciting than time capsule houses — homes that have been well tended and haven’t changed much over the years. We spotlight lots of them on Retro Renovation. And when there’s a pink bathroom inside – whoa! stop the presses! That’s me, at an estate sale where I was able to capture this Hollywood Regency delight. Come on, people. Life is too short. Don’t take yourself too seriously. A pink bathroom has come into your life? Seize the day. BTW this time capsule house was fantastic, read more here.

Does anyone know where can I find retro coral pink bathroom tiles in CT.
I’m trying to do minor remodeling to our bathroom and only need a few
tiles to fill in where part of the medicine cabinet was.

@Ann, try B&W Tile in California to see if they have the color you need. they are among the suppliers noted on my main site: http://retrorenovation.com/category/bathroom-categories/tile/

in addition to that, try your local salvage places including re-store/habitat for humanity – although it’s going to take some patience, likely. good luck.
