Pink Shag Bathroom - swanky!


Did you know Jayne Mansfield, the actress from the sixties, had a bathroom completely covered in PINK SHAG CARPET. (You have to click on that baby to get the full effect of her pinkness.)

Did you also know that she had FIVE CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 12!! (That may be directly related to the presence of her heart shaped tub lined in little mirrored tiles.)

I bet Jayne loved Valentine's Day.


(Did you also know that the Law & Order's Olivia is her youngest daughter. Who knew?.)

Uh, I knew. About the daughter, not the fabulous bathroom. When is that trend coming back?

The first words in my mind at the sight of the bathroom were: Pepto Bismol & mildew!

The pink shag bathroom was just the tip of the iceberg. The rest of the house was just as over the top as el bano.

Uh, is it just me or does the bathroom seem like a frilly dungeon of torture? At first look it was --wow! and second it was -- eeeek! I think it is the creeky door and cinderblock looking walls. I'll stick to pink tile.
