Hell yeah. Navy or a pale blue to match the shower curtain.

The Zillow search term of the day is "cork"       In the 1960s some MCM architects experimented with cork walls.

I find the retro futuristic lime green shitter really clashes with the pleated net curtains and the lamp that looks like a Catholic thurible.

Kase moch posted:Were they not planning on bathing often or did they have time for a 40 minute luxurious soak every day Before the widespread adoption of the shower it wasn't the norm for people to bathe daily. In plenty of cultures around the world it still isn't. The modern western trend of showering once or even twice a day started much more recently than you might think - around the 60s in the US and later elsewhere. In the 1930s the norm would have been more like one bath a week. Plenty of houses built in the 30s or 40s might not even have had running water originally depending on where they were built. Even having a room dedicated to bathing was something only relatively affluent people did until about the mid 20th century. Before that you set up a tub in the kitchen or a bedroom if you wanted a bath.

The Zillow search term of the day is "kosher kitchen" in honor of the Zoom seder I have been roped into attending tonight kosher kitchen = 2 of everything, one for milk and one for meat, and if they've got space/money they'll add more ovens and sinks and whatnot so the kitchen can get obscenely huge and take up half the house this is the reasonably sized version  this is the 1970s version  this is the McMansion version  this is the curvaceous contemporary version  this is the DIY renovation version. I think they were going for a "rustic" look but it just looks like someone smeared poo poo all over the cabinets.  that is the biggest hood I have ever seen  this is the overcompensating-because-you're-the-only-Jews-in-Utah version. It cannot be fully captured in one photo

Nessus posted:Yeah, like they weren't totally filthy or anything, but the norm would have probably been you take a good long soak on Sunday and on the days in between you used a washcloth to clean off your face and soap to wash your hands as needed. exactly. And while I don't advocate a return to that, an increasing number of skin experts are saying we're overdoing it with the showering now, and it's starting to cause problems.

Argas posted:You can take showering everyday away over my dead wrinkly body. I shower every day too mostly. Sometimes I'll skip a day if I'm not going to leave the house that day. But plenty of people shower twice a day, and they use harsh soaps full of artificial crap to boot. Plenty of people are dousing themselves with chemicals from the cheap popular aerosol antiperspirant sprays. It's excessive and bad for you.

The Lord Bude posted:they use harsh soaps full of artificial crap to boot. I use a pH neutral soap-free wash now and it's loving amazing. I got out of the shower the first time after using it and my skin just felt so much better. I have very sensitive skin and had exzema as a kid a few times, turns out the biggest problem was lovely harsh soaps. And hard bore water. Also, I moved to using hypo-allergenic shampoo and laundry detergent and anything else that touches my skin.

There’s also the native Australian soap nut which indigenous Australians used before colonisation. You can buy it at hipster stores.
