Reader Round-up

Each week we feature a select group of photos from the Offbeat Home Flickr pool and cool snizz from Pinterest.

Monday Moment: fashion and art collide in a hair salon

I love this moment set up in the entrance to Sirens Salon in Los Angeles (the place were I get my hairs did).

Monday Moment: vintage radio-infused color makes me want to dance

The moments in your home don’t have to be a large area (a la my living room moment or Caroline’s vanity). They can be just a small grouping of objects that, when placed together, make each object even more special.

Monday Moment: an impractical nook turned design moment

Drew’s new apartment came with neat little nook that was too small to be fully functional but to big to be ignored. So he created this awesome moment, complete with unusually rockin’ “flowers.”

Monday Moment: the dark and girly version

Our copyeditor Caroline created a gorgeous moment on and around her vanity. But I also had to throw in a bonus bed moment because it’s the perfect lesson in how you can make your bedroom dark and goth-y yet still pretty and girly.

Monday Moment: vintage Wurlitzers and floating doors

This is my favorite moment in my home. And it’s a good thing too, because it’s the very first thing you see when you walk in the door. It’s kind of a great combo of me and that guy I married — a mixture of musician, vintage, and a really weird place to put a door.

Introducing decor “moments”

Introducing Monday Moments! What’s a “moment”? Well, it used to be an inside joke between my mother and I, but now I’d like to pull all my Homies in on it. Let’s share moments, shall we?

It’s our weekly roundup of reader photos and interesting Offbeat Home-ish links from around the web. This week we’ve got the lowdown on air conditioned doghouses, an upcoming steampunk fest in Massachusetts, and era-appropriate Disney princess cosplay. Click on through!

Good Monday, Homies! Here’s a quick trip through the Offbeat Home Flickr pool to get us all up and at ’em for the week. And in Clicky Links? We explore improving a major metropolitan, homelessness-by-choice, and catching small game in a survival situation.
