Every Monday I cruise the Offbeat Home Flickr Group and curate the most interesting photos for us all to gather ’round computers and look at. Together.
This is a USB key. Really. It’s a tease for another tour posting this week: an amaaaaazeballs steampunk home in Massachusetts. Get ready.
Still fixating on spring in the Monday Montages — here’s loudshannon’s patio puppy.
Qathi wants us to know that this is not shabby chic. This is SHABBY MODERN. A term which she invented. Awesome. I’m on board with that.
Weeeeee have a neat home tour posting tomorrow, but this Polaroid portrait is all you get for now. If you think this looks cool, just wait until you see where this couple lives.
Totally SERENE kitchen in maiegael’s studio. It’s like the best possible sort of cloudy day in there.
Well, now I want a Seahorse Seashell Party sampler like BevinaNova’s. That’ll make your seahorse-theme bath way less grandma-heavy.
Okay. Clicky Links!
- Offbeat Bride’s Megan found super glam cat beds.
- And then she also found vintage porn posters for sale. Megan wins this week.
- Dinosaur planters from Stephanie at Offbeat Mama!
- Like, forty people sent me these custom cut hardwood floors. All the panels are cut to maxmize use of the tree and fit together perfectly.
- A cool idea from Casa Sugar: camoflaging your TV to fit in with a wall of framed art.
- Modular shelving from Spain. LUFF.

Cat Lady here. Those cat beds are uh-maze-ing. I think I won’t be forking over $300 for one, though. But it did inspire me. I wonder if I could make something like that? I’m about to move to the LES in NYC and there are tons of thrift shops and second hand furniture stores in my new hood.
Right now, kitty has one of those two-story shag carpet uglies to sleep in. I always glare at it as if, with the power of my annoyance, it will transform into something I don’t want to hide. I’m so excited to search for something I could create a bed for her in now!
I know, right!? Those cat beds are amazing, but so pricey. I’d LOVE to find a cheaper option just like ’em.
thanks for including my kitchen & the usb is amazing!
Shabby modern! I love new terms, and we’ve got plenty of things around here I’ll be using that one on.
My friends and I are SO hoping for tutorial on the USB. Awesome stuff!
I was excited about the vintage porn posters, but it’s actually not a store selling them. Der Spiegel is a German magazine, and the pictures are just different movie posters for 70s erotica as part of an article. Not actually for sale 🙁 The article itself is a good read (if you can sprechen the Deutsch).
Flesh Gordon 2 is the blurst film ever.
