Wacky Home Decor That Will Have You Questioning More Than One Interior Design Choice

The phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" takes on a whole new meaning when it comes to the wacky things people have in their homes. We're talking disco ball toilets, a "haircase" staircase, and an outdoor patio set more suitable for the Flintstones.

Get ready; you won't believe some of these wacky, quirky, and unique items people have found and decorated their homes with. But, hey, as long as they're happy with their statement pieces, we should be too. Right?

Take These Broken Dishes And Make It Art

The person who walked into the store and said, "yes, this is the chandelier I've been searching high and low for" is our new hero. The design is literally a bunch of broken plates, teapots, cups, and silverware that look as though they're being pulled into a force field of light.

Maybe they're just huge sci-fi enthusiasts and wanted something that represented a black hole. Who are we to judge? Here's to hoping they're still happy with their unique light fixture.

The '90s Denim Craze Wasn't Just A Phase For Some People

ADVERTISEMENT

Bean bag chairs were all the craze in the '80s and '90s, but this takes things a bit too far. Seriously, where does one even buy a denim chair? And not a normal-looking chair made of denim but one that is literally made of four pairs of jeans!

Can't Be A Party Pooper With A Disco Ball Toliet

Obviously, the person who designed this was called a party pooper one too many times during their college years. We mean, what other reason is there to make a toilet that looks more suitable to be hanging over the dance floor of a club?

The Chair For Evil Masterminds

Those of you who like to pretend they're an evil mastermind in a James Bond film, you're going to want to get in touch with this person to find out where they got a scorpion desk chair. Complete with large pinchers and a tail, this chair is definitely a statement piece in any household.

Snakes On A Curtain Rod

Scene: you walk into an Airbnb and see this curtain rod of snake-like vines twirling down to the floor. Do you stay? Do you run? Or are you like us and go seek out the establishment's owner to ask them exactly what on earth they were thinking when it came to interior decorating?

The Haircase...Enough Said

ADVERTISEMENT

This "haircase" is what nightmares are made of. Imagine, your feet are damp, and you have to climb this thing (yes, thing), only to look like Big Foot by the time you reach the top. Thank you, but looking like Sasquatch isn't on our list of things to do while at home.

The Floor Is Lava Game Is Intense In This House

ADVERTISEMENT

Lowkey, no one in this house is ever winning the "floor is lava" game if they have to go to the bathroom. The entire floor is literally the color of molten lava. So, unless they bring a blanket, skateboard, or have a tightrope secured to the walls, they're going to have to hold it until the game is over.

A Throne Fit For A Royal Flush

This is what happens when someone in the house believes they're royalty, and the rest of the household rolls with it. How does this conversation even start? "Hey, dear, can I remodel the bathroom? Well, I mainly want to make the toilet into a sparkling throne outfitted with lion heads on the armrests."

This Brings A Whole New Meaning To "Table Legs"

This table is giving off some serious Beetlejuice vibes. Mostly because the old-school-looking pants and shoe combination reminds us of Alec Baldwin's character, and having the legs attached to a tiny side table is just creepy.

What? You Don't Have Your Piano Hanging Over Your Stove?

Pianos are usually found in foyers, living rooms, music rooms, or even in a basement. If taken care of, the instrument will last quite a while. Even many antiques are still playable!

This person had other ideas, though. Instead of keeping their piano out as a decorative piece, they opted to do something a bit drastic. They somehow mounted their entire piano on the wall above their oven because ventilation units are so last season! We're calling an encore for some more wacky interior designs by this person.

Hot Wheels Is Life In This House

Some People Want To Look Fabulous All The Time

Gourd Carvings For The Most Extreme Cat Lover
