    Padded walls are a luxury for those who are accustomed to bouncing off the walls.

  2. Linda says:

    Is the large picture in the listing the front of the house??? With that fence dissecting it in the middle??? Wow, talk about no taste!
    I love the idea of home ownership. This is great!

    • tuesy says:

      I think it’s the back of the house, with a yard fenced off and the rest of it is a driveway off of a back alley. Maybe?

  3. Angel says:

    “Look at the bright side, honey… We might have got Hildi as our designer, but at least we didn’t get feathers…”

  4. Valerie says:

    Scarlett O’Hara would have loved this house. “Leave those curtains alone, Miss Scarlett, just take the fabric off the bedroom walls – we’ve got enough material to make dresses for you, me, all your sisters, and even Rhett (if he likes that sort of thing.) You know what? You don’t need to go to Rhett for money, just open a fabric store right here in Tara!”

  5. Dave says:

    I strongly suspect that’s one room decorated two ways (and photographed from another angle).

  6. Vivian says:

    In medieval times, gold and silver tapestries were a sign of wealth. So was possession of a toothbrush.

  7. Rebecca says:

    Those… those are shower curtains.

    It looks suspiciously like they’re trying to hide something… maybe taste.

  8. When I saw the first one I instantly thought weird Austin Powers love den. Creepy!!

  9. Kae says:

    What’s really bugging me is that they didn’t carry this “Carl, Sheik of the Desert” theme through the rest of the house. No continuity…

    • jackie31337 says:

      I know! There’s even another bedroom and an office (possibly the 4th bedroom) that look completely normal. Have you noticed how both of the weird bedrooms have some kind of shelf built into the wall around chest height and small, high-up windows? I’m guessing these two bedrooms are in the basement.

  10. Amy says:

    That blue satin fabric looks a lot like a prom dress I had back in the late 80′s.

  11. kristen55 says:

    Too much time on their hands and access to HDTV. Never turns out well.

  12. mudslicker says:

    Damn! It looks like that refrigerator has been more places than I’ve been.

  13. Graygrrrl says:

    That is the cleanest meth lab i’ve ever seen!

  14. Scuzz says:

    I would never be able to shake the feeling that there was something behind all that fabric. Like, you wake up in the middle of the night to see a giant eyeball peeping at you.

    • JMixx says:

      You’re okay as long as it is just the giant eyeball peeping. When the giant hand rubs on the door, though, you have to cross your arms in front of you, blink, and *PYOING* appear in front of Larry Hagman, saying, “Yes, Master?”

  15. RoeDapple says:

    Moldy sheetrock?

  16. Emily Michelle says:

    I’ve never been claustrophobic, but I think if I had to sleep in one of those rooms, I’d spend the whole night in a slowly mounting terror that those billowy walls were going to close in and suffocate me.

  17. Stephen says:

    I am sorry, but I can’t think of anything more than what a fire hazard that must be. Read about the Cocoanut Grove fire (to which I have linked) for a horrible illustration of why draping fabric everywhere is not a good idea.

  18. GinGin says:

    With these rooms, you can imagine youself being a jewel in a jewellry box! What a boost for those with an inferiority complex!

  19. Stuart says:

    Wasn’t it in Harum Scarum that Elvis karate-chopped the tiger? It was, wasn’t it? I have no idea why I’m asking this.

  20. Ki says:

    I want to take a marker and write a bunch of obscenities behind those lovely curtains…

  21. Charlene says:

    I’ll tell you what this is – someone who heard that you can cover walls in fabric but who didn’t actually pay attention to the details of how fabric is supposed to be mounted. They tack any old piece of material they have up with staples and think it’s good enough. (Look at the ceiling in the first image, by the way – is that mold?)

    More importantly, they don’t say whether the adorable standard poodle comes with the house.

    • erin says:

      i dont think its mold, i think its the press-on-glow-stars you can put on the ceiling to simulate the night sky when u go to bed and turn out the lights. i love those things.
      i wonder if these bedrooms arent in the basement and they thought the fabric would brighten cold and dark rooms

  22. Identity Crisis says:

    It looks like they live in a house upholstered with granny panties. EW.

    • anonomouse says:

      All satiny and shiny. Ooooh…Pretty! I think I will just lay down here. Hmmm. But all dark and really pretty gloomy. And cold and clammy. Is that a worm I feel??? Oh God! Oh God! I can’t get out. Open this up now! I thought it was a bed! Open it up noooooow! Help me!!! Help meeeeeeeeeeeeee!

  23. How many decades until you stop finding poodle hair in the fabric wall coverings? Achoo!

    • Vivian says:

      Actually poodles are extremely low-shedding– one reason they’re so popular as pets. Now my golden retriever, on the other hand… I’m sure her hair will still be floating around my house long after she is no longer with us.

  24. Chris says:

    The more I look, the more baffled I become … 90% of the place looks pretty normal, then these two rooms! Teenage kids, perhaps? (double beds, but pushed up against a wall suggesting only one occupant).
    Anyway, odd. Just odd.

  25. nowhere says:

    If they put one more picture on that refrigerator it’s going to collapse into a singularity. Or so one can hope.

  26. Cookie says:

    But it’s Saskatchewan – small town Saskatchewan. And as someone pointed out, those are probably basement rooms.
    What you don’t see is 23 inches of insulation behind those shiny wall coverings so that the occupants don’t freeze to death when it’s minus 50 outside.

  27. Rob says:

    the just reminds me of a room from dexter just before he murders them…

  28. Fleiki says:

    Oh suuuuure, poke fun while you bask in your tropical sunshine. But did you see that outside photo? It was taken last AUGUST! That isn’t over-the-top (off-the-wall just seemed too confusing) decorating, that IS the insulation!!
