A new season of messy homes on “Hoarders” starts on Wednesday the 8th on A&E TV, I believe.

Taking a Little Break

I will be on vacation ’til Sept. 13. I’ve not taken a break like this in 3 years. Comments might take a few days to show up; I’ll have limited internet access.

Got lots of good photos to post when I get back. Thanks.

Two Ugly Mirrored Walls

There was a time when cork and mirror tiles were popular. 1970s? How fun is it to remove them? These people gave up.

This home features a full wall of mirror tiles with diamond accents.

Fireplace With Custom Paint

Yes, the seller actually paid someone to paint the beehive fireplace in those colors. The blending of pastel green with pink is interesting to say the least.

Mold & Mildew

What buyer wants to see mold in a house? Why not remove it first?

On the other hand, at least the seller is disclosing the problem. This is a 2nd corner with mold & mildew.

And a third corner. It’s not clear if this is from the same room or from 2 or 3 rooms. Pretty extensive water leak regardless.

Staging Assistance Needed Here

They built a shrine for their family photos.

Clutter in the family room. Clutter in the kitchen too. Clear it all out.

Pan to the right and we see more clutter, a baby in a swing, a soda machine (!), a person standing to the right, and an unevenly painted wall. What would you put away?

The dining room looks really cluttered from this angle.

Too much furniture and whatnot in the master bedroom. Doesn’t look very inviting or relaxing.

Even More Ugly Kitchen Cabinets

Leif — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 16:33:38 +0000

They’re back. Those ugly John F. Long builder kitchen cabinets. Yuk.

Are those spice wood cabinets?

They look like they collect a lot of dust.

The Tables Have Turned

Someone knocked over the table.

This table’s on its back. Is that a lighthouse birdbath?

Pot Rack & Nagel Print

Leif — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 19:12:10 +0000

That pot rack is visually distracting, as is all the other clutter on the kitchen counters. Christmas tree is still up; the house finally sold in late July.

They have a Nagel print and assorted other unnecessary items in the family room.

You Can’t Spell Perfection Without a P

They were so flushed with excitement to sell their home that they forgot to flush. Perhaps this is their way to prove they are eco-conscious?

Thank you, Kara, for the photo.
