Are Pink Bathsheets an Obsolete Species?

Around Valentine's Day they had pink towels everywhere, even pink
kitchen towels. So you might want to look next year - in the meantime,
buy some from the sources given. THe Ralph Lauren ones look very
luxurious and fluffy.

Alex- I am sorry that I did not wait for your post. The Neiman Marcus (without the monogram....I am NOT into monograms) would have been just perfect.

Macy's had a sale a bath sheet that was the same make as the washcloth that I love. It was $50, on sale for $40-. They talked me into getting a Macy card, which I will never use again, but it gave me 15% off the sale price. Problem was that it does not come in pink. I had to settle for the same color as my carpet, which is a beigy color. it worls!

All of these examples of pink sheets and you settle for beige!!! Where's your sales resistance?

Actually there was no sales resistence involved. I wanted THAT towel. In fact, the saleslady tried to show me a towel that came in pink, but I wouldn't use it to wash my car.

Bottom line, ideally I wanted pink, but I ended up with beige, because the towel itself is more important than the color. (As you may have gathered, I am not the sort who would find my house featured in House Beautiful).

I do love the towel, and I'll simply ignore the color! :wink:

Nice!

I see you settled with the "hotel collection".

The texture and size is everything!

Wanna hear something funny? Just for the hell of it, I went to Google, and typed in "pink bathsheets". Do you know what came up on the top of the list? THIS THREAD!

I thought that was so cute, that I E Mailed my son and told him about it. So what does he do? He buys me a present of........................PINK BATHSHEETS!

You raised him well, Phoenix. It's not even Mother's Day yet!

... and you can never have enough bath sheets ... at least I can't. I use 3 bath sheets and 1 towel after each shower ... I like to be swathed in plush terrycloth.

Aww, now that is a son ! Now you have a whole bunch of new wonderful stuff to lounge in after your bath.

ehbeth, so you have been initiated into the secrets of the bathroom sisterhood then.

The bath is my sanctuary and not to be messed with.

When I moved to north north about nine years ago (geez, already?), I bought two new bathrobes, yes, for guys. First of all, they were cheaper than women's robes and of much better terry cloth re thickness and fluffyness. I figured I'd have guests and leave one in the murphy bedroom.

Time passed and I did have guests and none of them ever donned the bathrobe. I guess my friends/relatives weren't either chilly or shy. The robes happened to be a dark burgundy. Yes, you guessed it. I now have a nice dark pink rug, and a fair amount of other items purposely "robed" into a certain pink.

I like a man's bathrobe too. I have stitched up the front and used it as a popover-type thing -- never flaps open!

My washer/dryer is a stacker unit in the bathroom. Funny place for it? Not as soon as you learn to pop your towels/sleepwear into the dryer (on high heat, of course) before you step into the tub. So lovely and warm when you get out!

I'll never have a bathroom without some kind of a towel heater again!
