Flickr Favorites


Sometimes I wish I lived more in the south of Europe where lots of houses have colored facades. I wonder why it is that in warmer regions, houses look happier. Where I live, most houses look grey, red or black and boring. When I see a brightly colored facade, somehow my heart jumps a little. I couldn't resist adding some happy colored paper and tablecloth. For me, bright is happy.

If you like to play this week, make your mosaic and add a link to your to your blogpost (NOT your blog please) or Flickr. Click on the button below and fill in your name with the link to your blogpost or Flickr picture. I'll try to pop over to have a look at yours.

In Argentina people tend to paint their houses too... my parent's house is red. RED. :) Runs in the family. But the neighbours have a...PURPLE house LOL
I'm the same, when my mood is going south of the border I tend to gravitate to bright colours to help cheer me up. I'm so longing to move to the tropics again - I want that sunlight and bright life.
I agree..there is something so upbeat and uplifting about a brightly colored house. They make me think of beach houses, and warm weather. mmmm :)
ik geloof er sterk in dat kleuren je stemming beinvloeden... dus breng maar veel kleur on je heen ;-)
ongeveer het tegenovergestelde van mijn FF vandaag .....
I love your mosaic and I love those bright coloured houses too...instant happy-fication
Yes, would be great to see more colorful houses, especially in our colder areas!
I love the optimistic colors too!
Great mosaic for the cold day we have here in Romania. Love the colors and the idea of moving to a more colorful country.
I love your mosaic, seems like our minds were thinking alike today :)
lovely and colorful, love the freshness of your mosaic!
I love colored facades! Love the homes in Amsterdam. Once in a while I find a home here that is painted in a colorful and artistic way. Always brings a smile to my face. :)
I love pops of color too! Black is one of my favorite colors, but I think that some color here and there make all the difference!
The colored facades are my favorite :)
Hello
Hope you don't mind I've join your flicke favourites list
I love yours every week! :)
I love brightly coloured houses :D they just make me smile and add so much character to a place. If I ever get an outside studio, it will be brightly painted :)
Ohh yes I love colored houses but I also love colored front doors, like in Dublin! ;D
Great collage!
Love the colors! Colors can influence my mood. Isn't it strange that people don't make their houses so colorful if they are living in a cold area? Warm areas have the sun already, they don't need to create it...
That japanese paper is gorgeous!
