I really think I need to do this...


That's right. It's a white and red polka dot house. Looks like a yummy and cozy peppermint.I ride past it often and I finally thought to take a picture. It looks way better in person. I love that somebody got up one morning, looked at their house and thought, "Hmmm. Polka dots. That's what this place needs. There aren't enough polka dots in the world, or on this street."

I like to think I have the nards to do this to my place, but I fear I'd chicken out before I bought the paint. This is a thing that makes me smile.

I love this. It's delightfully subversive. How could any neighbour complain?
Well, some would find a way.... "Polka dots are not in keeping with the character of wawawawaawawa property values wa wawa waaawawa (Charlie Brown teacher voice).

I've admired this house for years. A saxophone guy lives there and you can often hear him playing and/or teaching. I WANT TO LIVE THERE.
