A little bit of Norway....

I was helping our oldest with homework last night

I love this....I could live in anyone of these homes.
and came across these images of Norway.

How Beautiful is this...

to the country...

is this common in Europe to landscape your roof top?

I just love the sweet little buildings and and all the windows.


I hope you all had a wonderful holiday weekend also!

  1. They do look sweet, but the one with the trees, well, I think that might become a little...top heavy!!

    Have a wonderful day!

  2. These are wonderful pictures Heidi. I love the first picture with the different colored, different shaped houses, but I love the ones with the vegetation on top. You could have your own Christmas tree on top of your house!! Hope you have a wonderful day. Hugs, Diane

  6. Beautiful! Both of my grandparents on my Dad's side are from Norway, so I have a bit of a soft spot for it. Thatch roofs are quite common in northern Germany and it is also common to plant succulents and such on flat roofs. Nothing like what is pictured here though.

  10. Hi Heidi,

We had tea with the family yesterday and went to our garden today. I painted the garden table. The set is almost finished now. I hope it will look pretty. Otherwise I done all the trouble for nothing ;-)!

    Happy evening & lieve groet, Madelief x

    Not normal in England to grass roofs - we like to keep our lawns manicured and how would we get up there to mow?! ;o)
