Seems like I’m starting the week off with the spotlight on RESOURCES! I was checking out Formica’s site recently – and saw these two new laminates. They both have a nice retro groove, underscored by their names, Atomic Orange and Atomic Turf. Back in the postwar era, there were a number of laminates that had [...]
I just got off the phone with George from New York Metals – purveyors of the stainless steel edging to true to 40s 50s and 60s kitchen countertops. The recent question on the table has been: How to bend my preferred “Snap-On Molding” (in photo above) for rounded edges – be they quarter-round cubbies or [...]
Arborite has two new laminates in their 2011-2012 collection that just popped onto my radar. I haven’t seen these as actual samples yet — I’ll order them this week. Meanwhile, I wanted to put them out there, because I know that many Retro Renovators have been left kind of up a creek since Formica discontinued [...]

Thanks for all the great pink bathroom posts Pam!!!
What a beautiful cat. It’s a true retro cat, too. The Siamese cats that they’re breeding today have narrower faces. I like yours so much better.
Pink and brown do look great together! What a sweetheart. (Reminds me of a Siamese we once had, named Queen Elizabeth.) This is a really great photo. Thanks!
The Siamese was “the” cat of the ’50′s, just like the French poodle was “the” dog. Remember the movie, “Bell, Book, and Candle” with Kim Novak and her Pyewacket?
