Week 49 Photo Challenge: Scissors

 We had snow flurries Thursday night. It didn't amount to anything, nothing like the the 6 feet of snow that parts of New York got earlier this week. It's just cold and miserable here.  Thankfully this week's photo challenge covered something that's easy to find inside. 




I use scissors pretty much every day I'm in the sewing room.  So finding the subject matter wasn't a problem, how to photograph them in use was a bit of a dilemma, not enough hands. 


Kate: Thread Cutting


In the end I went for an action shot of my embroidery scissors.  

My Guy felt at a disadvantage this week, he doesn't routinely use scissors.  


My Guy: Shear Herbal


He's cutting oregano for a mushroom Dutch baby that was last Sunday's dinner (yes it was very tasty). I was going to say he finds all type of inspiration in the kitchen, but I often find my inspiration in my sewing room. That's just where we spend the most time when we aren't working.  

Friday evening I had to text Grad Girl to see if she had a photo for this week. She'd forgotten and said she'd get me a photo this morning. She delivered.  I expected an embroidery shot, but she went a different route. 


Grad Girl: Odd One Out


She went with a still life.  I really like all the colors in her shot. 

I've already starting considering options for this week's challenge.   




It may or may not be a challenge. 

Have a great weekend. Stay warm if you are in the northern hemisphere, wishing you temperate conditions if you are in the southern hemisphere.

  4. I think it is great that you are still doing this challenge. I love your daughter's shot, because it looks like my cup - lots of colorful pens and a pair of scissors.
