Need We Remind You Again?

The deadline for the How Not To Decorate Competition is Friday, April 2nd.



HOW TO PLAY: Send us a photo of the most ghastly item of décor in your house. You’ll find the email address in my Blogger Profile.

Tell us a little about the item…what it is, where you got it, why you haven’t binned it by now, etc.

DEADLINE: Friday, April 2nd.

VOTING: We’ll post all your gawdawful photos on Monday, April 5th.

Voting takes place on Monday, April 5th and continues on Tuesday, April 6th.

You’ll tell us, in the comments section, which item is the most hideous.

The owner of the fugliest item wins a prize.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF WINNER: Later that week.


Bonus: A peek into Beast's bedroom, complete with too much SpongeBob paraphernalia ...

  3. Still looking--I may have found a possibility, but I'm still looking for a better (or worse) item. I'll be sure to send an entry by the deadline.

    That old man is pretty bold to be sitting nekkid in front of that statue of Jesus watching him!

  10. Dear Mistress,
    The Empress has been furiously haranguing the houseboys to find "Winning Prize Crap" for "Princess must win more "compy compy" at Mistress MJ's"

    They are working ever so hard but, given all of my...I mean... all of the "The Palais" Nooks and Crannys
    They are conducting a very thorough and probing search I must say...

    I shall forward all my entries as soon as they have finished me off... oh I mean finished off the searching.

  13. XL: I was expecting a banana motif at Chez Beast.

    Remember…you’re only seeing one room.

    HEFF: We get it, we get it !!!

    It’s about time!

    Now where’s your entry?

    KAPI: Is mistress feeling unloved?

    Not since I put that “10 cents a dance” sign over my door.

    EROS: Still looking--I may have found a possibility, but I'm still looking for a better (or worse) item. I'll be sure to send an entry by the deadline.

    He’d better put on his “Please Jesus. Don’t Send Me To Hell!” shirt.

    SAVANNAH: i have an item to share.

    When I hear someone say they have something to “share” I fear they’re about to get all touchy-feely.

    You’re not from some therapy group, are you?

    Is this an intervention?

    NORMADESMOND: i'd imagine this photo would be the unanimous winner. it's everything your contest asks for and more.

    It’s even better when you click on it.

    MR. PEENEE: I'd love to participate in your little game, darling, but everything in my home is finished in the most exquisite taste.

    Don’t make me post that photo of your hat.

    I will if you don’t send anything else in, you know.

    MR. PEENEE: I especially like how Beast's bed looks like it's made out of TinkerToys.

    Beast wishes he could find someone to tinker with him in it.

    Are you willing to travel to Bournemouth?

    BOXER: I'm looking! I'm looking!

    Surely someone gave you something craptastic for your birthday.

    CYBERPOOF: The wallpaper disturbs me.
    You'd think Beastie was more into Bananas in Pyjamas


    Actually, it looks like the wall has been painted using the sponge technique.

    Pretty clever, eh?... sponge technique…SpongeBob. Geddit?

    Did you notice that one of the SpongeBob pillows is concealing Beast’s sick bucket under his bedside table?

    IVD: Shit! I'd almost forgotten.

    Have you thrown out that horrid green tube chair from days of yore?

    PRINCESS: Dear Mistress,

    You must be feeling the pressure to stay on top after winning the “Technical Tin Foil Hat” prize over at IVD’s.

    RAD: fun...I would like to think I have such fine taste..but I will try to find something hideous or make something that is....

    Do you have a singing fish plaque?

    A group of us who do are forming a Big Mouth Billy Bass Fan Club.

    LEAH: Damn. No camera at present. But cannot wait to admire the decor faux pas of my fellow Infomaniac denizens.

    See to it that you show up on voting day to make your voice heard.

  16. Actually, I've still got the tube chairs - SP really likes them! And they don't look too bad in their new positions in new Castle DeVice.

    You'll be pleased to know that I have - at last - found a horrid piece of decor. It should be in your inbox as we speak!

  17. Okay, if you're going to fling out the wrinkly-old wiener I'll have to get off my arse and take a photo of my hideous decorations.

    I hope you’re lying down with a cold compress and a cocktail after that excursion.

    RANDOM CHICK: Okay, if you're going to fling out the wrinkly-old wiener I'll have to get off my arse and take a photo of my hideous decorations.

    Three cheers for weenis-flinging!

    I’ve been waiting in the hall
    Waiting on your call
    With some Puerto Rican boys who are just dyin’ to meet you.

    What were you saying? Oh yes, pirate furniture.

    Do you hollow out your peg leg and use it as a flask?

    WW: I think I'll aend you a phoro with my famous "Pipe Dreams 1984" picture as an entry.

    Please do! With a description too, please.

    If you’re going to get nekkid a lot on your sofa, best to go with a pattern or chocolate brown.

    This taupe sectional is making me ill.
