Welcome to the first post-full-launch Monday Montage on Offbeat Home! Last week we opened the doors to a trickle of registered beta users, and you helped us get even more geared up for going live. I’m ready to roll, are you? Here are some house-porny photos just for all y’all.
Enough photos? Let’s roll the Clicky Links:
- Ariel sent me the Etsy shop Beach House Living, full of summery, spoony, simply nice goodness.
- She also sent over this feature on this Green Furniture Award-winning chair made of old t-shirts.
- In case you were wondering, I have apparently bent the entire Offbeat Empire crew to my will, and they happily fill my inbox with Clicky Links. Megan made sure I saw a Lifehacker article on how to turn any desk into an adjustable drafting table, mostly using supplies from Ikea.
- I want to move into this polar bear room featured on Offbeat Mama last week. Polar bear wallpaper! Great for its almost-teen, but it would be just as lovely a room for the right adult.
We want your photos. Submit your offbeat shots to our Flickr pool and let us take a look.
That last photo reminds me of my dad’s house. It feels so welcoming with things that are old, but work. It’s a place you want to hang out in all the time making pierogies, drinking beer, and listening to Spanish music…oh wait…we do.
Thanks for mentioning my clock… I’ve gotten used to its size now and totally love it!
I LOVE that turquoise tile bathroom!
That front door is simply divine!
I want to move into the round house!!!
Oh I know that rainbow door! There’s also a local landlord here (Burlington, VT; also not sure if this rainbow door is his place) who paints all his rental properties crazy colors. He has a pink one, I mean holy hot pink!, with green polka dots and a duplex where one side is like fuchsia with purple trim and the other side is orange with green trim, if I recall correctly. And these colors are BRIGHT!
I want to live in that poke-a-dot house!
I know the rainbow door, too! I was so happy to see something local in this post! (Meghan, B-town shout out!)
I am IN LOVE with the matryoshka pillow in the second pic.
Why oh WHY would anyone abandon a round house? I can’t even imagine anything cooler. I must have a round house.
For those of you who love the rainbow door and aren’t lucky enough to live in B-town or the surrounding area- (my last apartment was down the street from it)
Here is an older article on the landlord/developer that was mentioned (still not sure if the rainbow door was his work or not)
