faintedincoils:did-you-kno:In the Polish village of Zalipie, all the buildings are covered in painted flowers. Over 100 years ago, when everyone had wood-burning stoves, someone painted a flower on their ceiling to cover a soot stain, and it became a trend. In 1948, the town started an annual painted cottage competition to help recoverpsychologically from WWII, and now all the homes, churches, bridges and barns are covered in flowers – inside and out.
