Reader Thrilled Pink Emily sends us this great recommendation on vintage style bathroom towels:
I was reading about how you were trying to find the right bathroom towels. Go to anthropologie.com — they have the exact style made in the 50s chenille look….the Sculpture Garden sculpted bath towels. They are so much fun. I would like to know where you got the turquoise formica for your kitchen. And, if you know where to find any pink formica, let me know!
Thanks, Emily! For pink laminate, I like the Wilsonart Tearose Illusion – a marbleized soft pink. I used this exact pattern – but in soft blue — for a bathroom.
Readers: Note that there a several great ways to find things on my site:
- Use the “Search” button and see what pops. I have to admit, this is what I do to find info from the blog — and it works GREAT!
- Check the Categories.
- And, try the Fast & Easy page at the top nav bar. I’ve posted many of my “basics” for renovating a retro home, there.

Pink Emily,
Formica brand reproduces their “Boomerang” pattern (originally called “Skylark”, designed by Raymond Loewy), and one choice is in pink. It comes in 4′ x 8′ sheets only, and is special order. A local laminate dealer can probably order (and cut) it for you. This was the case until recently, anyhow.
