Scavenger Hunt Sunday | 06.24.12

Filed Under: Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

Hello everyone! Hope you all have had a great weekend so far. We have been so busy the last few weekends we decided to have a nice, relaxed weekend at home.  By the way, one month from today I will be celebrating 8 years of marriage and 3 years of blogging. If you want to sponsor a giveaway in honor of my Blogiversary please let me know!

Warped

A window in our shed is pretty old and warped.

Concentric Circles

I looked up what Concentric Circles meant and came across something that said eyes are like them. So I decided that I would share Dustyn’s eye.

Gear

Show and Tell: Yellow {Self Portrait} I used my gear for this photo, tripod, remote, D7000, new 85mm f/1.8 lens. Technically Dustyn took it with my remote.

Glazed

A chocolate glazed donuts from our trip to Philly a few weekends ago. Taken with my iPhone. Best I could do. I almost made a special trip to the store to get donuts!

Marble

I didn’t have any marbles around here so I did the marble effect. I sent the photo to my phone used an app on it. Then emailed it back to my computer.

    Wonderful set. My top 2 Picks: Gear - This is just precious. Warped - I'm not sure what it is but there is something about this shot that just appeals to me. Runner Up - Marble - That effect is very cool. I don't have an I Phone so this wouldn't work for me but it's still cool looking.
  12. Kim C. says

    June 24, 2012 at 2:58 pm

    The marbled effect is really neat! Great set through and through.
  13. Dawn B says

    June 24, 2012 at 2:40 pm

    When I saw the picture of the donut and read it was from your trip a few weekends ago, I thought "Yuk," but then I read the rest of the explanation. I'm feeling much better now. Love those archives! You have a real gift. I loved perusing through these, Dawn

    Great set - especially impressed with the 'marble effect' but I am singing 'lalalala' about it being done with an app so I'm not tempted.
  21. Brooke says

I'm still in awe of how far my library and plant r I'm still in awe of how far my library and plant room have come. Every time I step inside, I feel so happy to see my shelves filling up and my collections growing. 🙌🏼

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
