Scatterday
Happy Scatterday! It's H today and the categories are:
Human: This was a bit of a tricky one, but then I started looking round and found this picture of Hedy Lamarr. My mum had carried a calender of black and white movie stars around for years until she eventually got all the images framed. They're all in our dining room now and look very effective. Other pictures include Errol Flynn, Lauren Bacall, Mae West and more.
Toys: We have a harp seal and a hedgehog. They were both gifts. The seal was from a friend when I got food poisoning in Perth (other than that I had a lovely time), and the hedgehog was from my aunt and uncle when they visited us from the UK.
Soft: It's a hat. My mum and dad went to a mad hatters fancy dress party. I made mum's hat which won, it was a desert island with a little palm tree and a little doll fishing. It was lots of fun with paper mache and sand and cellophane water. The only problem was that I didn't think about balance until it was finished. Unfortunately I think it's been thrown out now and I didn't get any photos, but we've still got the prize.

Great idea using the print from you wall. That hedgehog is way cute!
HAT! there I was struggling with soft, and a hat's such a great idea. Nice work!
Very clever choices Lindsay. Human has so many different meanings doesn't it?
How good must those Black and White Calendar photos be...love to see more of them on your Blog one day!
Hedy Lamarr! Lovely.
Hedy Lamarr - my Mum used to talk about her. How funny! Love your toys and that hat!
