I like that daisy wallpaper a lot, I've had it in the back of my mind for a while. And now that I'm about to have a yellow bath....darn. On the other hand, since the walls are half-tiled in yellow, the fixtures are yellow, and the floor is yellow, maybe another color on the rest of the walls is a good idea.

I can't send a photo yet, as we're still doing work around the house, but I have mint green wall tile and so far have only white towels to hang. Since the second owner of my home was disabled (and so am I), she had a wall telephone installed next to the loo. I will replace it with a period correct wall phone, hopefully in seafoam green, or white. Nice, nice bathroom, Susan! Yep, that’s the exact color of my fixtures in my 1955 built ranch.

The half bath was in the left rear of the knotty pine den. Both baths were bright yellow, with the recessed sinks. The house for ages always smelled of Jean Nate. After my widowed aunt passed away, one of her dear friends who loved her and the house bought it. The fate of it beyond him ripping out the wall between the kitchen and den is unknown. I loved that house too, a very fond childhood memory. My Uncle John, and Aunt Teenie (Ernestine) had a pretty house built in 1958 that had two bedrooms and a bath and a half.

It had been re-coated by the POs and is sadly, now, looking a little "spotty." Would it be worth trying to remove the re-coat? Lovely bathroom, Kitty Mommy! We have this same tub, but in white.

Why?!?! I had pink American Standard tub/toilet/sink in my old house in Denver (house was 1915, but the bathroom fixtured dated to the 40s). The tub was a very similar model, and I always liked it.
