| #4: Glass |
It is a glass bottle that has a round glass ball at the top which is pushed in to open the bottle; the neck of the bottle is shaped so that it holds the glass ball in place:

I was able to find a picture for each prompt, this time. But, I also took some pictures for the alternatives, too:

My previous posts can be found here (December), (January), (February). I might do a single final selection post, too, to have everything in one place.
Thank you, Eileen, for hosting the Winter Photo Scavenger Hunt.
I love your interpretations of the prompts (and glad Dancer participated)
ReplyDeleteThank you, Anne. Dancer says it was hard work, but, he tried his best! :D
DeleteGreat choices! My treasured items are also those irreplaceable things with people's handwriting in.
ReplyDeleteWhat great measuring cups!
Thank you, Lady Ella. I think I should make one or two recipes my mother had written down - maybe something my daughter might like to do, too. :)
DeleteThat was a fun and varied selection. I don't quite understand the glass bottle, but I am fascinated by it.
ReplyDeleteThank you, June. It is an unusual looking bottle, isn't it?
DeleteExcellent finds. I like your measuring ducks. Seems we both had help in one way or another with our little kitty friends to make or find elements for the WPSH.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mary-Lou. I saw your photo of the kitty's contribution on your post! Too funny! :D
DeleteGreat job Bless. I like Dancer's art lol!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Martha! :)
DeleteGreat photos but Dancer's "torn paper towel art" sounds like an excuse for wanton vandalism!
ReplyDeleteMy arm is only a little sore today and I slept late and am a bit tired but no more than usual. Puttering is the order of the day!
He loves to tear paper towels and tissues! :D
DeleteI'm so glad to hear that your side effects are only a sore arm. Yes, please do take it easy for a couple of days. I took a picture of the first rose, today, and thought of you. Will be posting it, soon.
I like your nested measuring cups. They look quite delicate and I'm sure I'd have snapped the necks by now!
ReplyDeleteTorn Paper Towel Art is a winner!
Thanks for joining in with the hunt Bless x
The nesting measuring cups are cute, aren't they? I bought a second set to give as a gift, but, I think I still have them!
DeleteHa, ha, Dancer says thank you!
Thank you for hosting the hunt, Eileen. I enjoyed participating in it.
Nice finds, Bless. I've never seen a bottle like the one in #4.
ReplyDeleteI too have a very similar photo for "Black & White". :)
Thank you, Nil. I saw your photo for Black and White - great minds think alike? :D
DeleteOh I just love old family recipe books; that one must be such a treasure for you.
ReplyDeleteIt is, Joanne. Thank you for visiting and commenting. :)
DeleteI enjoyed these prompts. Do you use the cute little duck measuring cups or are they mostly for decoration?
ReplyDeleteThe recipe book of your mothers is wonderful.
Dancer! How avant garde!
I do use the duck measuring cups from time to time - I keep them in an old plastic mixing bowl in which I keep a lot of my baking items such as the box of baking soda, can of baking powder, cup cake liners, some recipe cards, and a set of measuring spoons. There is another set of measuring cups in a drawer, as well, but, they are plain round white ones. :)
