I was so excited when Rinda announced the subjects for the Scavenger Hunt recently and mentally tried to think of places that I could find the things on the list - and there are only a few that made me think 'where on earth am I going to find THAT?'. But as we all know, the most unlikely things can turn up when you least expect it so cameras at the ready girls!
So I thought I would share the first 3 that I have captured
Stained glass. This is the frame of a mirror that we bought on a weekend away to the beautiful seaside town of Southwold. I love the colours in the different types of glass and it's one of my favourite decorations in the home.
Oh yes, the outside bench was not a problem at all, and it gives me chance to show that quilt again! (Thank you for your kind comments on it. The fabrics came from Pelenna Patchworks and I was so impressed with their service and quality of fabric)
Now for a civic building, I wasn't sure which to choose. You see our town is a town of two halves. It is a really historic town, so a lot of the buildings look like this - which is the registry office. You register births, marriages and deaths here and if you want a civil service for your wedding, this is the place you come!
But there is also a modern side to the town, and these are the Council offices. Now, which photo should I choose for the scavenger hunt? Decisions, decisions!
Is anyone else likely to put any of their pictures on Instagram? I noticed that Amy had an adorable picture of someone fishing there this morning with the hashtag #summerscavengerhunt2013. Should we choose the same if we decide to show any photos that way? Or should we each choose our own # title so Amy can keep hers seperate for herself? What are your ideas?
Great catches....I have to say I prefer the registry office.
ReplyDeletegreat set - love the mirror and your quilt looks superb. I'm always torn between the historic and modern buildings too
ReplyDeletea great start... i'd go for historic everytime x
ReplyDeletehistoric for me too, great photos.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great start! I think I'd go for historic every time too
ReplyDeleteHistoric, without question.
ReplyDeleteI love the comparison of the two. And thanks for the instagram idea. I'm going to post something about it today.

Great shots Debs - I love historic too but the contrast is really interesting. But you may want to include the modern one if it adds variety to your other photos
ReplyDeleteI like the contrast of the two buildings. Historic is so pretty, modern is very civic. I'm glad I don't have to choose.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. You could join the two photos together and make one :-) But I love the older building the best. I am wracking my brain to see where I will find some of them.
ReplyDeleteYou are off to a great start! I love the contrast between the old and new civic buildings!
ReplyDeleteGood start...mine will have to wait a while. Love your glass.
ReplyDeleteThe different buildings are such a contrast but it has got me thinking of what I could take now - thanks. BJ
ReplyDeleteI prefer the registry office personally. Congrats on getting off to a great start!
ReplyDeleteLooks like the Registry Office wins hands down!...great start Deb

I am another who likes your registry office! Great clutch of photos ...
ReplyDeleteGreat start Deb. I love that mirror! I'm another who would go with the historic. The contrast is really quite something though isn't it?
