Garden Angel said...: Snufs....hvordan kan noen la noe så vakkert forfalle til deeeee grader????
Men stripene dine er det ingenting å si på, bare at du har øynene med deg hvor enn du går!
Fikk lyst til å pirke bort gammel maling..hahaha;)
Men det finner jeg nok et eller annet sted her også...
Tenk å ha morgenkaffen på den glassverandaen da Lene.....JA....
Om den hadde vært trygg å sitte i da....flirer:))

Det var såååå koselig å være hos dere sist! Avslappende og bare kos!
Tusen takk!
Ha en superfin helg!
Her er det jobbehelg.

Goooood klem fra meg(",); April 4, 2009 at 10:29 AM
CJ said...: Great photos. I love old buildings, even ones that are going to ruin.; April 4, 2009 at 10:33 AM
Brit. (lille meg) said...: Dette har nok vært et staselig, kanskje til og med herskapelig hus en gang... Men tidens tann har tæret på det, så det nå er falleferdig. Sørgelig! Hadde min tante sett dette, ville hun ikke blitt glad. Hun var opptatt av å ta vare på det gamle, enten det var hus eller andre ting...Men min tante er ikke mer, og det er snart ikke dette huset heller, om det ikke blir gjort noe med det.
Ha ei god påske, Lene.
P.s. Jeg har laget meg en ny blogg, fordi det var så mange som ikke kom inn på bloggen "lille meg". Den nye finner du her:

Olga T said...: Gardinerna var "sådär". Huset har stripes. Fotona är jättehärliga. Bara att börja skriva på spökhistorian!
P.S. Väntade på Dengelsk Detter eller Dalmatiner i veckans ABC:)
Ha en bra helg!; April 4, 2009 at 11:25 AM

jams o donnell said...: Superb photos. I love how you have captured the textures. I agree with Aileni, the first shot would look marvellous in monochrome. Have a great weekend; April 4, 2009 at 12:47 PM
annalarssonphotography said...: Fullständigt FANTASTISKA bilder Lene!! Jag håller med Aileni och Jams om att den första bilden skulle bli en knock out i mono!

Vilket hus!! Varför hittar inte jag sådana för? ;)

Ha en fin helg Lene!

Anne said...: Snakk om shabby chic du!!
Her tror jeg jammen ta jeg hade mistet motet jeg også ja :-))
Men se på den verandan da gitt, for noen vakre detaljer der er.
Bildene får man allikevel til å tenke en del tiår tilbake i tid, og se den skjønnheten dette huset engang har vært.

Her er det rolige dager, været er så som så, litt sol og litt regn. det positive er at snøen smelter som bare rekkern i lavlandet.
På hytta på fjellet sitter mine foreldre og er fortvilet over at vi ikke kommer i år. Sønnen vet du, i den alderen at hyttetur 3 generasjoner sammen blir litt i det tørreste og kjedeligste laget.
Ikke er han til å regjre her hjemme alene heller ennå, så i år blir det nok bare dagsturer på ski for far og meg :-))
...men koser oss, det gjør vi ja!!

Håper du nyter dagene og er ferdig med den værste lesninga du også, i alle fall, noen dager med fri har du da fortjent.

Varm klem herfra, og nå må du se innom den nye fotobloggen min.; April 4, 2009 at 3:17 PM
YTSL said...: Is that your home? If so, what an amazingly interesting building you look to live in!; April 4, 2009 at 3:26 PM
Arija said...: How sad to see the decline of a grand old house with remnants of past dreams still festooning some windows... what stories of love and aspirations it could tell...
You have captured it so poignantly.; April 4, 2009 at 3:29 PM
