A big purple Favre jersey then?
A 404 error?
Exterior texture file not found.
A Facebook ‘Like’ button?
Musicat–no love for the monkey, then?
It’s also seen as you drive right past it to the back entrance of the adjacent Mormon church.
Filbert, that would make me chuckle every day.
For a year and a half, I’ve been driving by a trailer with the words Slaughter House sprayed on the side of it. It has given me pause.
How about some words in giant letters.
“I LIVE NEXT TO neighbor’s name!”
or
“I LOVE neighbor’s name”
or
“neighbor’s name DOES NOT LIVE HERE!”
Any of those would probably be quite perplexing and annoying.
Hopefully John Slaughter lives there.
I’m trying for a lottery windfall so I can paint my house plaid. It would only be for about 3 months or so, because the siding needs replacing. But what the hey? Why not have a little fun?
Paint an outline of a fertility goddess.
Paint a rainbow in unexpected colors.
Paint one of your favorite humorous quotes.
Paint a sturgeon, or an outline of your favorite hobby or sport.
Paint your college’s logo.
Do a reproduction of a Dali painting.
Paint a large version of the Cheshire cat as he begins to disappear.
To drive them crazy, how about painting a USA flag, but make it wrong in some subtle but noticeable way? Like, 49 stars instead of 50, or something like that?
Chalkboard paint!
Draw whatever you fancy, and come the next rain - you get to start again!
Famous quotations, irreverent graffiti, maybe a big finger when you’re having a bad day!
You could even leave a bucket of sidewalk chalk out for other people to participate, if the were so moved!
There are some good but complex ideas posted. I vote for going simple: polkadots…
Multicolored polkadots.
This. Or any other MC Escher.
With footprints, handprints, arrows and a Twister spinner.
Or this.
Find out which way your neighbors lean politically. Then get either a giant Obama or Romney sign.
The facade of a gingerbread house.
Sign over the door, “Ed Gein Memorial Chapel”
Or, “Beware of Landmines” sign.
Just to throw cold water on a great idea… I checked your location, and you’re in Door County. One of the most peaceful, zen places I’ve ever visited. Full of boats and homemade pies. I mean, it’s a peninsula, man.
So my vote is: don’t upset the neighbors.
(Although, I’d contend that painting Daleks vs Ninja Aardvarks vs Cyborg Space Chimps would be entertaining your neighbors, and elevating everyone’s Zen Quotient)
Ooh, ooh! Idea! Paint just the outlines of whatever you decide on, and have the neighbor kids help you “color it in”.
How about painting an out of town sports team logo on there.
Pretending does not make it true, facts before fiction…
I’m a big fan of Dazzle camouflage. You can always claim to be hiding from the Germans if anyone mentions the war.
