Kitsch-Alarm



Weeeee.... tastes are different, luckily.
Passed this.



Oh, help ;-)



I won´t call it a horror show, but...





Oh, my.
A tad spooky, no?

Lion of the day:



A tad too much kitsch for my liking, how about you?

Hmm, nicht meine Lieblingsbilder heute! Ich bin ganz glücklich dass die Gartenzwerge etc. almählich verschwinden aus den Vorgärten hier und werden ersetzt durch schöne Skulpturen, Palmen, Zierbäumchen etc. Und leider verschwinden immer mehr und mehr Vorgärten und werden benutzt als Parkplätze. Viellecht sind die Gartenzwerge doch schöner!
Dir einen schönen Tag, GlG, Valerie

Iris Flavia said...

Ich fand es unfassbar! Wer will sowas täglich sehen? Ich nehme nun eine andere Route oder gucke nicht hin ;-)

Ja, schade, dass Vorgärten zu Parkplätzen werden müssen. Schade, dass Menschen in Stadt A wohnen und in Stadt B arbeiten, und Leute aus Stadt B in Stadt A arbeiten und alle deswegen ein Auto brauchen!
Ich will das nicht mehr!
Aber... einmal solchen Quatsch da sehen ist ein wenig lustig, in diesem Sinne: Dir einen schönen Tag, glG, Iris

Had to laugh at your kitsch post. I've not thought about kitsch for awhile, so this was fun to see. However, I LOVED the lion.

Iris Flavia said...

Elizabeth, yes, the Lion is the only cutie here!
Ewww. I hardly could believe this galore! Who wants to come home to this?!

If that's what Kitsch is then I have quite a bit around my house, mostly inside, but some outside. I have a fairly large collection of gnomes and most of them live in my closed in back porch, with a few in the living room. They've all been featured on my blog at some point.
I think the hi-ho gnome needs a coat of paint.

Iris Flavia said...

Oh, good thing we´re not all alike :-)
I have Christmas stuff here all year round.
But you have to look for them!
And Lions (huhhh, surprise)...
Yes, I agree, the Hi-Ho one is neglected!

Tom said...

...what a Kitschy collection!

Haven't you heard the expression 'home is where your gnome is' 😁 Made me laugh out loud with this post Iris and yes, I'm sure the Vegemite packs are still available 😉

PerthDailyPhoto said...

What happened to the first part of my comment I wonder? I said haven't you heard the expression 'home is where your gnome is' 😉

PerthDailyPhoto said...

Oh ok I give up 😱

Iris Flavia said...

Grace!! No, I didn´t know that saying!!
My gnome is a King Frog :-)
Oh, how about making a mobile then? :-)

Iris Flavia said...

It´s all there, Grace, blogger had another hiccup!

The interesting thing about kitsch is the way tastes vary so much, that someone can like almost any example of it. For example I collect Mona Lisa parodies. Is my soap bottle where the soap comes out of her head kitsch? Yes. My Mona Lisa lampshade?

Iris Flavia said...

More on this tomorrow :-)
My soap is an Angry Bird - and I never played the game!

Sami said...

Not one for gnomes, but I suppose some people like them.
Funny to have the lion there with two other totally different statues.

Iris Flavia said...

I have one (!), he´ll show up tomorrow.
I often think about the dwarf having his pants down, showing his butt and putting that in direction of our darn neighbour ;-)
Do I buy that? (No)

Alexandria said...

You have a great sense of humor Iris!

Iris Flavia said...

Alexandria, well, what can we do but laugh, huh?

William Kendall said...

The wee leprechaun is my favourite.

Cool like statues.
Coffee is on

River said...

My mum had one of those gnomes with his pants down and bent over showing his butt, it was battery operated and when you walked past it would make a fart noise. I hated it.

Jeanie said...

Ah yes, kitsch. A little is good for the soul so long as it is on someone else's lawn!
