There are flowers everywhere in Colmar. Some of them are even found around doors, the perfect combination. Right now, with winter hanging on and not much color to be found, it’s especially fun to browse through photos of summer and to remember strolling through the colorful streets of one of Europe’s most attractive cities. I can also take pleasure in the thought that today is the last day of February and that perhaps spring is just around the corner.
for Thursday Doors
This, that and the other thing 
Thanks for the reminder, Janet, with these colorful, summery photos of a sweet and warm place in the world.
You’re very welcome, Jet, and thanks for stopping long enough to comment as well. I like winter, but I’m officially ready for spring, although it looks as though for the near future, we’ll still be cold. 🙂
The French do such very good doors, don’t they 🙂
That they do, Tish, and Colmar is a beautiful place to enjoy them.
I love the combination of all the flowers, greenery, and doorways, and love the imagery of European countryside and little villages. So I particularly love these posts of yours 🙂
I’m happy you like them, Madison. Colmar’s not a small town, but certainly not a large city by any stretch of the imagination. It has well under 100,000 people according to Wikipedia, source of all knowledge, which is similar to some of the Chicago suburbs, but quite large compared to where you are. These photos are from the historic downtown area.
You sure know style when you see it, Janet!
Merci beaucoup. 🙂
Those images are pretty enough for postcards, Janet. Gorgeous. Love the first one.
Thanks, Jean. I”m glad you enjoyed them.
I love that corner door. There seems to be a bit of an optical illusion effect going on with it. It looks to be on a corner and then it doesn’t. I also really like the flowers on the door at the top.
Maybe it’s a door to Hogwarts, Dan. 🙂 This visit was during September, so there weren’t as many flowers as the previous year when we visited in summer. But there were still enough to be gorgeous.

Those are some stylin’ doors!
Thanks. I thought so, too, and the flowers just add to the charm.
janet
They do!
Wow, each one of these doors is so charming! Cher xo
Thanks, Cher. The historic part of the city is so attractive and not just the doors.
janet
What a treat that must be!
It is. And as an additional bonus, there’s a lot of good food and drink and chocolate as well. 🙂
Now that is definitely my kind of place!! Cher xo
Sweet to see flowers above a door. You are definitely the door queen.
Nicely done, Janet, as always.
Izzy 😎
Many thanks, Izzy. I hope all’s well with you and yours.
Yes, things are going better. Just taking one day at a time and grateful to be able to do that. Thank you for asking. I just love your doors. No matter how many times I decide to focus on taking photographs of them I’m distracted by something else. Perhaps, one day i”ll surprise you. But, please, do not hold your breath. LOL I’ll enjoy yours for now. 😍😎
Oh my goodness these are pretty photos. I love the doors and the flowers… well as winter ends here it’s lovely to see the colors.
Here, too, at least I’m hoping it’s ending soon. Posting these was a way to share my hopes that spring will come soon!! 🙂
janet
Very lovely. 🙂
Thanks! I love all the flowers in this part of the city.

I can imagine Janet. 🙂
Both characteristic and beautiful doors, Janet! The first one because it’s a three paneled door, and the brown narrow one is so unique! Thank you for coming by and enjoy your weekend:)
You enjoy yours as well, Jesh. One of the joys of spending time in France is the different architecture.
Janet, what gorgeous doors you found. Love them all. Hugs to you on this last day of February. 🤗
Thanks all around, Sylvia. I’m hoping that March brings spring sooner rather than later this year!
Wow – you have some great archived doors…. and they were extra charming with the flowers and summer vibe
Glad you enjoyed them, Yvette. 🙂
We can all hope that Spring is coming soon but it looks like here on the West Coast March is planning to come in like a lion. Lovely pics!
Glad you enjoyed the photos, JT. I’m ready for March!! 🙂
Great shots Janet. Of course I’m particularly fond of the corner one, but flowers are a welcome sight right about now as well 🙂
That they are, Norm. You’ve had even a longer winter than we have from the looks of it. Hopefully it’s on the way out now.
These are my favorite doors today! Beautiful!
Well thanks very much for that! 🙂 I’m glad you liked them so much.
janet
These are pretty treasures, especially the 2nd one. They offer a great reminder of the lovely weather still ahead!
I’m longing for the weather right now, as it’s just grey and boring at the moment. And cold. But March means spring is somewhere in the not-to-distant future, at least for those of us a bit further south.
Anticipation has the most tantalizing flavour 🙂
That second door is fascinating. It looks like it’s quite small, but with such an elaborate motif above.
These doors look just right in Europe, but they wouldn’t go with the homes in the US. I quite like them.
😀 They’d look out of place here too.
Ooooh, that first door has all the texture and style! Great finds, Janet!
I like that one, too, Joey. Colmar is full of beautiful doors.
Either the doors dress up the flowers or vice versa, the flowers dress up the door compositions and the result is good all around!
Thanks, Gordon. Glad you enjoyed them.

Beautiful old Doors and nice Photos
Thanks very much, J.S.
janet
Great shots!
Thanks. I’m very glad you enjoyed them. Thanks for taking the time to comment as well.
