Three Weeks for Dreamwidth: Scavenger Hunt

[ysabetwordsmith]

3weeks4dreamwidth is hosting a scavenger hunt today.





Find the items around your home to tick off as many boxes as possible. Answering by text or pictures (or silly doodles!), all fine :)

You can put your responses in the comments, or post to your own journal and link below.


01. The last physical book or magazine you read.

Book: The Complete Beans and Grains Cookbook

Magazine: Mother Earth News.


02. A piece of art.

A string of bells that I made for the window.


03. The view from your window.

Well, right now I'm in my office, which looks out on the streetside yard, which is forest, so all I can see is a wall of green leaves. Other windows have more interesting views -- the east window in the kitchen looks over the patio and then the forest garden (much smaller than the forest yard) with the birdfeeders.


04. Something you've kept from childhood.

This house, actually.


05. Your favorite mug.

Cobalt blue glass with white snowflakes on it.


06. Your lockscreen/desktop wallpaper.

I think it's still set to Stonehenge.


07. Something fuzzy.

A blanket similar to this, but mine says April Woman. Truth in advertising.


08. A piece of physical media.

Firedance: Songs for Winter Solstice by Jaiya


09. A tool you use in a hobby.

Garden trowel.


10. Something that makes you feel good.

A hot cup of tea, but this one is in the smaller peacock cup.

>> do textbooks for school count if you read more than half of the text? <<

Sure, doesn't say you had to finish it.

>> you know, I don't really do fuzzy textures.<<

Totally fine. Some people prefer silky, or leathery, or something else.

>> blunt tipped sewing needles because I decided I was going to learn how to hand sew a t shirt (yes, in jersey/stretch knit fabric. that's the point) <<

The hard part is making a seam that will stretch. One option is to make sort of a zig-zag. Another is to stretch and sew while it's stretched.
