Recommendations for decorating a bathroom Hollywood style?

I want to decorate my master bathroom like an old hollywood dressing room. The room is small (like an alley) so I couldn't fit in a chaise louge or anything. I have double sinks, crappy flooring I'm willing to rip up but I don't know where to start with decor, light fixtures other than the Hollywood lights that go around the mirrors that have the large globe bulbs which I do not like. What about paint color, shower curtain, faucets, towels?|||Did you want the hollywood glamorous look? Use a crystal chandelier, pale blue green and gray color scheme. You can use long sconces on either side of your mirror. Look on HGTV at save my bath they did a hollywood bath episode. Episode was called icky industrial bath.|||We just redid my daughters in a soft pool blue-her soup dish,towell holders etc are in mirror with beveled edges and etched floral. I found her pool blue towells and black. Silver hardware. Her small curtain is a patterned shinny silver in a pouf-I made it for nearly nothing and its great. She's got a ceramic poodle on the back of the toilet (old town buy-4.00) and black framed photos of Marilyn Monroe, Audry Hepburn and like on the one wall facing the mirror-which we did wallpaper too in a b/w pattern. Her light is black metal and curves out from wall like an old street light above her mirror-white glass shades-Lowes for 25.00. It was a different metal but I just painted it with metal,ceramic acrylic from the craft store-think outside the box. Look at old gaudy standing (table) lamps from the trift store-with a new shade and a beaded edge on shade (hot glue) you can do wonders!|||Here you go (for some ideas):

How do I get to Hollywood blvd from lax using metro or something alike?

I need to get to Hollywood blvd from lax tomorrow night, I wanna take metro or any other public transportation that costs a couple bucks, what should I do to get to Hollywood blvd?


thanks|||Take the "G" Shuttle bus to Aviation Metro station from there take the Green Line to the Imperial/Wilmington metro station, go downstairs the blue line and board a Los Angeles bound train and follow that train to 7th Street Metro go downstairs for the Red Line and take the train to Hollywood, there are a lot of stations on Hollywood Blvd so I am not sure which stop u want but that will get u there|||instead going the long way around


you could take the c bus to the city bus center


then take metro 42 to la brea and overhill then line 212 into hollywood|||Shame on TM for not mentioning the Flyaway bus. Just look for the green signs on the arrival level that say "Flyaway", and look for a big bus that says "Flyaway" on it. It's $7, and takes you directly to Union Station in half the time of the 42 bus. It's even faster than the Green Line/Blue Line/Red Line route. From Union Station, take the RED line subway to Hollywood %26amp; Highland. Don't take the Purple Line to Wilshire/Western. Every day, I'd see people there with a confused look, wondering where the Chinese Theater is. So take the Red Line toward North Hollywood.

Is there a bus I can catch to Hollywood lane, Hollywood from Birmingham city centre?

I need to go to Hollywood Lane, Hollywood, Birmingham on Tuesday, but I don't know what bus to get from the city centre? Please help. Thanks!|||Yes,they go every hour so have lots of fun,love Carly.......................

Where can I Volunteer in or near North Hollywood on Thanksgiving?

I would really like to volunteer on thanksgiving day. Does anybody know where I can volunteer in North Hollywood or close by?|||Look in the Yellow Pages under Shelters or Social Services and help serve at a Homeless Shelter

What exactly is the history of Jews running Hollywood?

Jews run Hollywood. What is the history behind that? When in history did this occur?|||The Jews do noty run Hollywood. The Jews did not invent Hollywood. You sound very prejudiced. Yes they were one of several huge factors. Your film teacher told you this?? That's weird. But anyway part of the answer is that in the early 1900's IMMIGRANTS came here and many greatly gifted writers, designers etc who could noty work elsewhere did well in L.A. - my family worked with them, I know. Some were also good financiers and producers but please avoid the cliches!|||listen to Charles Giuliani. He goes into this very topic in huge detail on today's show.

What characteristics do you think successful people in Hollywood have to be successful?

I wanna know 'cause my dream ever since I was 13 even though that was years ago is to go to Hollywood and I think about it everyday.


Just wanna check how I'm doing!|||Youth and looks.





And even the latter isn't set in stone: I've seen Nicole Kidman in person before. Skinny, pale, but nice. On the whole, pretty average.





The Hollywood scene wants decent actors/actresses with salvagable looks. If you have that, and a stroke of luck, then you're set.





(And money never hurt either.)





Good luck!

Why does Hollywood flaunt its wealth in our faces, then preach to us that the root of all evil is money?

Hollywood's decadence is constantly being shoved in our faces. We cannot escape from their jet-setting lifestyles. They flaunt their opulence on self-congratulatory red carpet extravaganzas, while we sit at home wondering why we can't have a life as great as theirs. Then we flock to their films and sit in front of their TV shows and are taught how we should learn to be less greedy and be content with nothing more than a few smiles and a soft couch to sit on.


Anyone notice this destructive dichotomy?|||The road to hell is paved with good intentions. They use their money and influence to pave that road. So, in some twisted form of Hollywood logic, their money is the root of all evil.





My money, on the other hand, goes to feed, house and clothe a family. It makes life better and more comfortable, My charitable donations go for good works.





Cold is Hot, and Hot is Cold - Ode to the Hollywood left





Tax the rich when it makes more poor


Heat the house, with icicles galore


Only one race but we'll say more


Everyone wins but no one scores.





Go to school, to learn the lies


Everyone lives, but we all die


Cure the sick, but let them lie.


Advertise what they can't buy





Up is down, and down is up


Drink your fill, from an empty cup


Cat is dog and kitten is pup


Fasters dine, when it's time for sup.





Help the poor, to live with less


Guilt is mine, but don't confess


Poor as dirt, but charge a new dress


In Hollywood, we don't see the mess|||I find it interesting how the Hollywood elates like to come across as liberals but they like to hang on to their money. A couple of years ago a male actor made the statement "I understand what war is all about because I played a soldier once". People complain about how much a CEO or a very good Dr. makes but no one seems to care how much the actors make. Are we becoming a society that cares more about how we are entertained than how we are governed.|||They don't teach that money is evil and that greed is bad, they preach about sharing the tax burden, supporting public programs, etc.|||You can't trust anyone that changes their religion based on current fads.|||Hollywood is entertainment. It has no obligation - nor should it - to lead anybody.





Who on earth looks to the entertainment industry for moral guidance?|||Brilliant observation.





Hollywood is run by liberals. They practice a "do what I say, not what I do" religion.|||i think that most people who hate hollywood are just miserable individuals who need to blame others for their lousy life that doesn't live up to TV or movies. true fulfillment is found within.|||One word for all the cases described both in the main question here, and in the other answers given already:





Hypocrisy.|||Actually it's the elite who do that, not all Hollywood, nor all the wealthy. Only the elitists.|||I've always considered hollywood celebs to the real trailer trash|||Whoever said Hollywood was smart?|||Debbie, they do spend a lot of time in trailers after all..hehehe





BTW, great statement! It's sadly too true.|||excellent point|||wow that's actually profound. never thought of it quite in those words but it's true. screw those bastards.|||It's the LOVE of money is the root of all evil.|||Boycott all their movies, I did a long time ago,.specially Matt Damon,.|||You mean like TV evangelists that keep telling you God needs more money?
