Monday mornings, I love pouring myself a second cup of strong coffee and wandering around the Web in search of truly disorienting, tacky, or bizarre décor to share with you.
I was not disappointed. It’s easy to believe that many of these ideas were hatched by homeowners or renters without outside help. Others may have bought into design notions fostered by Better Homes and Gardens.
Consider yourselves duly warned. You might consider taking Dramamine before setting sail across these stormy seas of questionable taste.
I’ve Got a Busy Signal
I love how the wood grain of the cabinet complements the diagonal undercurrents of the window treatment. It’s a sore site for eyes.
The perfect solution for a five-bedroom, one-bath home. If I tried to shave in this mirror, someone would have to call 911.
Surf and Turf
In this “green solution,” the motion of the waves power the appliances that connect via the delicately embedded wall socket. Once I had the college sophomore idea of dragging a blender down to the surf so I could make strawberry daiquiris. Fortunately, the power cord didn’t reach from our condo.
Pizza My Heart
Innovative, unique, and you’d hardly spot the section where they split open the ceiling with the pizza slicer. The amplifiers in the room obviously go up to 11.
I Chalet My Body Down
Such a cozy, rustic place to unwind after an exhausting day on the slopes. Grab a hot toddy, take off your boots, and snuggle. Whenever I think apres-ski, I always think “wicker”.
No Skimpin’ on the Pimpin’
Bring a little of that old Vegas charm to your bedroom with this exceptionally tart decor. Cowboy up, pardner!
If You Like Pina Coladas and Getting Caught in the Rain…
Just kill me now, please.
I suppose one could do much worse than these folks did. To wit: consider these decorative sandstone wall hangings from—you guessed it—Walmart! They sell for a measly $627 and look just like gecko eyeballs.










One Response to “If You Love Pina Coladas”
With your access to photos and humor, how about a blog on home basement taverns. In my neck of the suburbs, most split levels or ranchers have at least a corner bar in the basement, if not a full size one with a pool table and dart board, and of course a plethora of stolen road signs and free beer paraphernalia.
