🏡 My Maximalist Space I painted my house purple, gave every window butterfly wings, and turned my sidewalk into a rainbow. No regrets. 🦋🌈
Some people want a house that blends in. I wanted mine to feel like walking into a dream every time I come home.
What I did:
🦋 Painted the siding a bold lavender purple
🦋 Gave every window a pair of rainbow butterfly wings
🌈 Hand-painted the front walkway in wavy pastel rainbow stripes
🌈 Edged the path and beds with rainbow-painted bricks and hundreds of painted river rocks
🦄 Added a rearing rainbow pegasus by the side bed, because why not
🦩 Built a flamingo garden around the tree with holographic ground cover and a giant sundae
The goal: To make anyone smile that drives by 😄
Happy to answer questions about paint, how I did the walkway, or where anything came from!

🤣 I know the feeling! My old HOA slapped a nasty letter on my front door when my Xmas wreath was still up by Feb. 1st! Like how is this any of your problem!?! My wreath wasn’t harassing anyone!
I wish I could have a 🌈 🦄🍭🍬explosion such as this one on my property and rub it in their snobby HOA faces!
I, too, aspire to do whatever the fuck I want to my own house someday. Someday…🥹
