Here are just a few of the MANY ugly decorations that adorn my hideous, hideous house. I'll add more once I gather the courage to actually touch these disgusting objects, but so far there's only a few. My Nanny decorated the joint back in '80, when brown was apparently in. And sadly, it hasn't changed much since. The curtains that devour one whole wall, the coffee table with giant emerald lily pads on it, the blue recliner that still has the plastic on, and many other terrifying flea market collections. If you have a weak stomach, don't go any further.. but if you think you can brave it, go on.. at your own risk. *shudder*

The Rock Thermometer The Rock Thermometer
At first I thought this was a hideously novel Rock Compass, but upon further inspection, I realized it was a thermometer. And what really finishes off this little beauty, is the big green patch of felt at the bottom of it. I guess its too go along with the forest theme.

An Evil Cupid Evil Dancing Cupid
Alright, now at first, this Evil Dancing Cupid had an equally evil and frolicky twin, who I "accidentally" might have smashed to bits on the cold cement floor. Oh darn. There is a chance that perhaps, I could fix this statue up a little bit.. it actually could be partly because of its placement (on a mantle with a faux rock background) more then its actual appearance. Uhm, maybe.

The Eskimo Hanging Look! Eskimos!
This lovely piece of Canadiana also comes with unidentifiable stains, which are always pretty. It looks almost like Kenny from South Park is in the upper right hand corner (with what looks to be someone's abstract idea of an igloo on his head) and fish racks and scary figures (who look suspiciously like big wrestling ninjas..) are fishing in some invisible lake/or ice hole. Yikes.

Huh? A Knitted Hanging Owl, I think
So.. any ideas on this .. uhm, thing? It hangs beside my desk, on the wall, and what looks to be its "eyes" (or breasts, we haven't quite decided) hang further then its "perch". Do you think it'll sell?

Ugly Rug Hanging Brown is such a pretty colour, apparently
This lovely hanging is sort of on a 'Death to all those who remove it' heading right now. Which is sad, because I think something that ugly probably just wants to die. My Nanny uhm, 'hooked' it back in the day sometime.. and if you think its ugly now, picture it with her biege and pink overstuffed couch (which had a green and red scottish styled couch cover over top of it). And thats how the room was given to Brad. :)

Toilet Paper Doily Toilet Paper Doily, being Attacked By Hippy Inspired Knitted Flowers
I guess that little old lady's can never have too many toilet paper covers (or doilies?? who knows.) This one, used to have another one beside it, a giant mouse that had a bonnet and long dress on it, and carried a straw basket. Thats right. And it covered toilet paper rolls. This still sits in our bathroom. Because, I guess toilet paper is so scandalous it must be covered? Who knows. Its scary anyway.
Ooo.. pretty pillow!! Pattern for the bedspread/pillows/curtains/wallpaper in my Nanny's room
Right, so you think this pillow is hideous? Imagine it as the base pattern for an entire room.. think of being over powered by dull orange wheat fields in a small square room. The bedspread is adorned with this, the curtains, the wallpaper, the pillows -- there is no end to this atrocity.

If you have any ugly house knickknacks you'd like me to display here, just send'em to firespider17@hotmail.com =)
