Crooked Houses on Jon and Kate Plus 8
While Crooked Houses probably weren't aware their product would be showcased side-by-side with the downer of the Jon and Kate divorce announcement, those were the cards they were dealt, and while cute whimsical playhouses and the dissolution of a family of 10 aren't simpatico, the company certainly gained a lot of eyeballs on their product.
So what are they?
It's actually a neat idea that takes a structurally sound playhouse and puts a facade on the outside that makes it look ramshackle and as if kids had built it themselves. I'm a big fan of whimsical stuff, and think this would make a great addition to my backyard.
At least, I thought it would, until I saw the price tag.
It seems you have to make Jon and Kate type money if you want a custom design such as the ones that appeared on the show -- a custom Crooked House runs about $5,000. So easy math there -- $5,000 x 4 houses = $20,000 worth of free stuff for the Gosselin kids.
If that's a bit out of your league you can pick up an original Crooked House for a "modest" $1,249. The one pictured which includes dormer and porch will set you back $2,549.
