Real Housewives of Atlanta: Kandi's Crib Revisited!


Earlier this week, we showed you a video of Kandi Burruss as she showed off her home in Fayetteville, Georgia.  As you know, we HATED it!  But, alas, some of our readers didn't have the opportunity to watch the video and were left in the dark!  Well, somebody must have been listening because the Atlanta Journal Constitution just posted a piece featuring Kandi's house with a bunch of PHOTOS!

Here's the simple exterior (which would be really quaint with a paint job and better landscaping):


Once inside, you see that the foyer is done up with crap that all apparently came from the same "new age" furniture store:


Actually we like the wallpaneling in the living room and the soft colors of the sofa and ottoman in the living room:


And the bedrooms?  More new age furniture!  Below is Kandi's master bedroom.  Which is worse, the tray ceiling or that bench?  Wrong color choices.  Wrong everything!


Her daughter's room is . . . well . . . .


Oh yeah, here's a bathroom for good measure:



To Kandi's credit, she says in the article that she does not believe in spending a lot of money (obviously!).  We LOVE that and it's part of the reason why she's our favorite cast member.  She's a lovely person and almost too sensible to even be on the show.

Still, we think Kandi's interior designer should have stopped her from filling up her home with all that court jester's furniture that popped up in the late 1990's/early 2000's and quickly went out of style.

  5. Wow! I like Kandi! CDHQ I thought you were being a little harsh! (But okay, you are right. You could say it's ugly a little more nicely.)

  7. Hey BeachGal and Anon#2, We often take light-hearted "digs" at celebrity digs. But we are kicking ourselves for not being nicer to Kandi, especially given what she has been through recently. We will try to take it easier in the future.

  9. Thanks Anon#4 for confirming our suspicion that this was faddish decor from a decade ago. Sadly, we visited the designer's site and everything looked just like what we see in Kandi's house. So we stand behind our original post (http://celebritydigshq.blogspot.com/2009/10/bravo-tv-video-kandi-crib.html). Kandi needs to hire an interior designer immediately! Hopefully not the one she used before.
