There was a parrot in the bathroom at our last apartment. The old, bumpy plaster on the walls looked like a parrots head. The woodgrain in our childhood bedroom door looked like a monster. That's the sort of stuff you'll find at this downright entertaining blog, Faces in Places...











Weird.

Oh my god ... I've been obsessed obsessed OBSESSED for years with faces found in objects — I have HUNDREDS of photos of them. I'm so glad to find a home for them now and to see all the brilliant ones other people have found!

The plaster in our former bedroom ceiling looked like Scooby-doo. I swear.

ridge ... me too. I see faces all the time. I love it (except in tree bark, those freak me out for some reason).
I have an elephant in my office door -- I am looking at it right now.

My dad recently took hilarious pictures of the face made by little holes in an ikea candle holder, but my favorite is the eggplant I bought recently. It had a nose.

Those are actually called "eyelid dormers."

There's one in a knothole patch in one of my bedroom "walls" (aka back of Gothic Cabinet Craft bookcases). I'll have to take a photo of it...

wow! i enjoyed the blog! i saw a face on the bathroom stall door at work. i don't even wanna know what substance made that face! i suspect tho it was probably an accumulation of air freshener residue.

I heard or read somewhere that people are wired to see faces in plaster, bunnies in clouds, etc. I think it's a way of making sense of things that lack pattern. I like the face on the saw.

This past summer, I visited a fairgrounds where I used to show horses about 16 years ago. In one particular bathroom stall, the paint is still peeled to show a man's head with a really large nose.

The roof is creepy indeed. It's got that "I'm watching you" look written all over it. Can you imagine coming home at night?!
