Apartment - Bathroom

Probably the most unique place in our apartment is the bathroom. Words can hardly explain it.  It was probably the height of fashion in the 1950's... maybe.  It's a lovely shade of lavender and pale green.  Including colored tiles on the wall and floor, which have been cleaned so many times the color is starting to fade.  The inside of the bowl of the sink has been repainted at least twice that we can tell by the chipping that has occurred.  There is only one towel rack... in the shower.  There is a heater, which makes a nice towel warmer in the winter, and a window to let in some nice breeze when the weather is warm and keeps the shower cold in the winter.   Our sage and clay colored towels really add to the warmth of the bathroom. 
I could hardly get a picture that would capture the real essence of the color of the bathroom.  The worst part of the bathroom is you can spend 45 minutes cleaning and scrubbing it but it never looks clean.  It's a bit depressing but you keep at it every week cause you know it's clean even if it doesn't look it.
