WAKING UP to a flute player on the balcony and a crowing rooster decorating the front lawn must make the owners of this house in White Rock smile.
I enjoy seeing their leap into whimsy each time I travel along Marine Drive.
The obviously creative owners are local artists I believe.
The eye candy they call home reminds me of strawberry shortcake, lollipops and ice cream sundaes.
The more you look the more you see. It took a while to realize there was a pig with polka dots on the patio beneath the suspended bicycle.
No matter which direction you turn your gaze there is something new to discover.
There are delicious swirls and curls everywhere and gumballs the size of Easter eggs.
And why not add a pink playhouse to be the cherry on top of such a fantastical home?

Oh yeah, I think you definitely need to meet these people (and ask them if you can share the inside with all your bloggy friends too!)I like whimsy.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyable array of shots of whimsy! Looks like a cheerful and playful doll’s house. I especially like the reindeer wind vane.
ReplyDeleteI think the creator of all that whimsey would be delighted with your photographs and with your ability to see so many "hidden" treasures, Penelope. Oh, that bicycle. Be still my heart :) While I'm here, I want to mention your last post. I listened to the Leo Rojas selection and just loved the happy vibes emanating in every direction! Your posts have a personal whimsey that touches everything you see.
ReplyDeleteI would love to have a look inside that house. What a delightful fairy tale it is. So much fun!
ReplyDeleteComing to this article super late, but I helped build this house (I was just telling a friend about building this and went to see if I could find some pictures, which is how I ended up here). It is just as whimsical inside! The people who commissioned us to build it are absolutely lovely and incredibly creative.
