Pink is back, even pink bathrooms, and they are more popular than ever. An article by Kate Murphy in the New York Times features Nancy Burns from Fairfax , Virginia, above, who has pink poodle decorations on her shower curtain, a pink scale, and matching pink toilet and tub. Mamie Eisenhower is said to have started the trend back in the fifties with her love of pink. She decorated the White House with the color, so much so it became known as "the Pink Palace." Since pink was her favorite, she wore a pink gown to her husband's inauguration. It was decorated with 2,000 pink rhinestones of course. Ike is said to have sent her pink flowers every morning. You have to check out savethepinkbathrooms.com by Pam Kueber, the publisher of RetroRenovation.com. It includes everything you ever wanted to know about the Save the Pink Bathroom movement and all those Pink Patriots who love it. And you'll want to take the Pink Pledge. My favorite pink item is a Royal Typewriter that I have stashed away which was a present from my dad when I turned 16. Who can ever part with something as fabulous as this? ______________________________________ If you're in the need of gift wrapping ideas, turn to the San Francisco Chronicle and a wonderful article by Steve Rubenstein on Megumi Inouye, the world's second-best wrapper, a title won at a contest in New York. Not only does she do an incredible job wrapping, but she says in the article that she can wrap anything. To test her skills, the Chronicle gave her three unusual objects to wrap: a hacksaw, a jump rope and a banjo. Using found objects like the cardboard tube left over from toilet paper as wrapping paper is one of her trademarks. Check out the Chronicle for how Megumi wrapped the hacksaw and the jump rope. You'll see the banjo here. And below, an incredible wreath she made from those tubes. What a talent this woman has! Credit for the photos goes to Liz Hafalia and Russell Yip and kudos to the Chronicle for the article.
