At the very end of this charming street

are these two creative and inspired

windows.

Rue Crémieux

Bicycles, red geraniums in window boxes,

wrought iron, a resident cat (or two)...

Love this quiet rue

Rue Crémieux

A lovely pedestrian street

adorned with an assorted palette of colors,

whimsical trompe l'oeil,

and at least one neighborhood cat.

Rue Crémieux - la maison verte

Rue Crémieux

A street with "happy houses" all in a row,

colored with a box of crayons, each in a different color.

This one is fronted with plants even in the fall...

and one very large wisteria that should never need pruning

Deux pies - Rue Crémieux - IV

Rue Crémieux is a short walking street of two-story houses facing each other.

The jewel tones of the houses give the street a fanciful appearance.

Many of the homes have tromp l'oeil as seen here and in the photos today. 

This maison violette with its two magpies may have a story to go along with the art.
Magpies are said to be very intelligent and also attracted to shiny objects,

like the jeweled ring. 

Is there a fable about magpies by Jean de La Fontaine?
