The Good Taste Chronicles

Stemming the tide of vulgarity in the general public.

The Mountain comes to Mohammed.......

Darlings, I need your advice.

The upstairs commode at Chez Vel-DuRay needs replacing. It's all leaky and water-wastey, and it has ab-so-lute-ly no pizzaz whatsoever, anyway (your basic white toilet. Damn those cheap builders!)

There's something I've been considering, but I'm just not sure. This is why I need your advice. This is your opportunity to show that my years of teaching have paid off.

I was at the recycled building materials store today, and saw a cunning mint green toilet. And a stunning aqua sink.

What if we were to replace all the boring white fixtures (except for the tub, of course - I'm not THAT crazy) with this festive little kalidescope? Would it be clever and original, or would it look like a sad rental?

I humbly wait to soak up your advice. Like a sponge. Or something.

    Yikes. My advice? Stick with white. It's classic. This is coming from someone who has a lavendar toilet and pink sink in her laundry room. Oh how I wish they were white!

    While I do adore color appliances and bathroom fixtures, I'd have to agree with Daisy May, unless it is all the same color don't do it. Unless you want to incorporate the different colors in the rest of the decor colors. Perhaps that would work.
