here Just wanted to share this. The joy of frame clusters and tiny lightbuld shaped terraniums. And fireplaces full of emptiness Grin [rin]

That's rather entertaining, thanks! Grin

God I love it you probably have seen put a bird on it but it's always worth sharing!

dexter73 · 20/08/2012 11:44

Love it!!

drjohnsonscat · 20/08/2012 11:58

love it. Remember in the early 90s everything had suns and moons on it? Now birds and typography.

Oh massive linky fail mock here

MrsKeithRichards · 20/08/2012 12:14

Hilarious!

Why are they so bloody angry over interior decoration. What's wrong with a good old wall cluster?

drjohnsonscat · 20/08/2012 15:42

Love unhappy hipsters. I do also get unreasonably angry with people who have tick tick tick fashionable houses. Either shabby chic (here's my architect's drafts cabinet and my slightly faded taxidermy display) or minimalist (you'll never, ever find where I keep the washing up liquid). But then I'm sure somebody could do the same with my house.

It's just good to laugh at people who think they have it right. Also they like to think that this is just self-expression and a demonstration of their originality when all it actually shows is that they belong to a certain tribe - in this case the tribe who collect vintage cake stands. No different from auntie who has horse brasses and table mats showing scenes from yore of coaching inns. It's just that her house is not in a fashionable tribe.

My friend wAs featured on unhappy hipsters, we were all so proud

drjohnsonscat · 20/08/2012 15:54

Can we know which one your friend is caerlaverock. Just a clue?

I'm hoping it's the top picture on this page

Actually I also get stupidly angry over home decoration (first world problem) I'm just bitter because I like frame clusters and mini elephants. Lol they must hate my home!

"Perfect" colourless shabby chic/minimalist homes - how do they actually live in there? There must be a constant fear of ruining the empty grey surfaces and artful displays?

I'm more of an Unhappy Hipster than a Fuck Your Terranium or I would be if there weren't kids toys escaping from everywhere

TacoLeBell · 21/08/2012 13:33

I must be very sad because I like most of the homes on the fuck you site. I think I'm just pining for a home that isn't full of toys and piles of washing :(

Caerlaverock · 21/08/2012 14:18

I like some of it too taco but still makes me laugh

HazeltheMcWitch · 21/08/2012 15:21

Caerlaverock how did your friend make it onto site? Did she nominate herself? Is she a hipster? An unhappy one? Am really oddly intrigued!

Caerlaverock · 21/08/2012 15:46

Her house featured in an American hipster magazine. She is fairly content but subject to life's up and downs like the rest of us!

:o

FunnysInLaJardin · 21/08/2012 16:42

I LOVE that blog OP! I showed DH though and he didn't geddit.

betterthannext · 21/08/2012 17:43

I like some of the homes can1t understand why someone would waste so much time puting things in they don`t like what is the point?

minipie · 21/08/2012 18:05

Oh I like that site. Though I do quite like cluster frame walls Blush

Houses round where I live are not nearly as cool though similarly identikit. It would be more like Fuck Your Plantation Shutters and Inframe Cream Kitchen.

orangina · 21/08/2012 22:51

Genius, thank you SO much for posting it.....

(rushes off to circulate to Friends Who Will Get It.....)

AgathaFusty · 22/08/2012 09:09

I love it, although around our way it's more likely to be 'fuck your home decoration, courtesy of Next interiors' (unfortunately!).

RaisinDEtre · 22/08/2012 09:11
