What the fudge were these people thinking?
Re: What the fudge were these people thinking?
I am SURPRISED their realtor didn't make them paint it! wow... no way in hell will someone want to look at that after seeing that pic!
Even a beige/cream color would help!
I feel like getting on a bus to Georgia and doing it myself! That's just WRONG!!!
We looked at one like this. Electric blue kitchen, mustard family room, magenta bedroom, green bathroom.
Some people are paint psycho. My Ex included. He painted his bedroom in the house that we lived with purple swirls. PURPLE SWIRLS! When we decided to sell the house, everyone repainted their rooms. The red room became beige. The yellow room became white. My bedroom was already a pale tea green so I just gave it another coat. But Mr. Purple Swirls refused to repaint. There was a huge fight about it, but he wouldn't relent.
Luckly we sold the place to a rock star type who loved all the crazy paint.
Are houses really that cheap? 100k for that house is AMAZING!
I'll repaint if I can have it for 100k. WOW!

Gah! It looks like the break room at nickelodeon!
My friend rented a house that had a black & white checkered bedroom, a purple & green bedroom, a (bad) mural on the wall in the stairway and each step was alternating rainbow colors! The owner let his teenage daughter decorate...
Oh and FIL's old house had an electric blue basement which they sponge painted metallic gold
that house is sooooo pretty yet SO NEON!!!!!!!!!!!
man, I wonder what those people were thinking!
I love colors in houses. But I draw the line at electric blue and lime green in the kitchen.
I will dime myself out. my laundry room is Tenn. Vols Orange, my downstairs bathroon is white, black and red and my bathroom is bright green. Oh and my bedroom will be black when we finally paint it.
The thing is ... it's a GORGEOUS house. I would totally take it and just paint over thier ridic color scheme.
MLS listings acan be so funny. We came across one that showes a pic of a bedroom with a girl slpeeping in her bed, lol.Dh said he would only look at the house if the girl was included
Ha! J and I say the same thing when you can see pets in the photo, "Ooo! Dog included!"
That photo blinded me. Granted, I'm a very blue, grey, brown, black kind of person, but whoa. I guess it would wake you up when you came downstairs for your morning coffee.
NO JOKE- My parents painted their bathroom that color. Then they just stopped the project ... didn't get cute towels or bathmats, or re-do the tiles. It's a hot mess and I don't even know what was going through their head at the time.
I guess if it's REALLY well done maybe somebody can pull it off in a room, but they certainly didn't and my parents didn't either. You have to have a real eye for design to make something like that work.
