LivingHome Wordle Neil Young
A great use of Wordle.net Remixes: Combine lyrics of a favorite song with a killer photo of the artist or band.
LivingHome Wordle Coen Brothers
For a fun wall piece: If you're a Minnesotan there has never been a more 'pitch perfect' movie about the state's culture than the local Coen Brothers' Fargo. And Big Lebowski is one of the greatest cult films in recent memory.
LivingHome Wordle FallingWater
A LivingHome Wordle Remix: Probably the most beautiful home in the U.S. with a Wordle Word Cloud from a review of this Frank Lloyd Wright masterwork. Click image for high res.
