I have lived in old houses with the classic pink and black, the original white subway tile and all turquoise but I have never seen Orchid before and, while I love original, I would struggle with this. I would check out a salvage center and see about a possible swap, Orchid for vintage something you could live with.<br /><br />Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10106720865034468249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919830837927228571.post-20356764262128899152012-09-03T03:06:50.134-04:002012-09-03T03:06:50.134-04:00Just dye your hair to match and no one will notice...Just dye your hair to match and no one will notice...Princesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11021504621181130629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-919830837927228571.post-7847942837808641582012-09-03T03:05:32.615-04:002012-09-03T03:05:32.615-04:00I'd snap it up in an instant, but getting it a...I'd snap it up in an instant, but getting it across country would be so annoying and besides, the drain is on the wrong end.<br /><br />Just be ready when you replace it, the new plastic and fiberglass ones are tiny.
