We're all for making your home unique to you -- but really? "Hello, Kitty" all over your house?! Trust us, this isn't the biggest head-scratcher. We've gathered some of the strangest residential paint jobs we've ever seen (what would possess someone to plaster their home with the Louis Vuitton logo?!) for your viewing pleasure -- or pain. Click through the gallery, and you'll see what we mean.
- <p> If your house matches your handbag, the fashion police need to arrest you on charges of visual assault.<br /> <br /> And how on earth do you sell this place? This is not a <a href="http://realestate.aol.com/blog/2011/03/28/exterior-paint-colors-that-sell/" target="_blank">paint color that will help you sell your home</a>.<br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/erinwilliamson/3881725706/" target="_blank">Flickr/Sterin</a></p>

- <p> This house sure did taste the rainbow. (But it's probably not one of the <a href="http://realestate.aol.com/blog/2010/07/16/painting-to-sell-what-color-homes-sell-best/" target="_blank">colors that sell best</a>.)<br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/executionsinfo/2759061990/" target="_blank">Flickr/Whole Wheat Toast</a></p>
- <p> Actually, you live <em>in</em> Burberry. Wonder what the <a href="http://realestate.aol.com/blog/2010/07/15/sell-your-home-with-these-paint-colors/">inside looks like</a>.<br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/mrjorgen/2723167635/" target="_blank">Flickr/mrjorgen</a></p>

- <p> Though the hot-pink exterior of this brownstone is kinda cute, it does stick out like a sore thumb.<br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/jwilde/3420523152/" target="_blank">Flickr/underwhelmer</a></p>

- <p> This place is so shocking, you can't stop looking at it -- and that's exactly the point. In exchange for turning your home into a billboard for the company, marketing firm <a href="http://www.BrainiacsFromMars.com/" target="_blank">Brainiacs from Mars</a> will pay your mortgage. Looks like the owners of this home took the deal. Maybe the place looks better from Mars. <br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.BrainiacsFromMars.com/" target="_blank">Brainiacs From Mars</a></p>

- <p> From an airplane, this Mexican village probably looks like a giant Gay Pride flag.<br /> <br /> Photo: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/graeme/5778851919/" target="_blank">Flickr/GOC53</a></p>
