Here are my photos for the May scavenger hunt. It has taken me ages to get started this month and I've dashed around at the last minute to get some of them. You can add your photos to the link on Kathy's Postcards from the P.P. blog - here - thanks once again to Kathy for hosting the scavenger hunt and providing us with each month's topics.

A Butterfly- I haven't seen any real butterflies for ages so here is one in a ceramic mosaic at the Westport Lake Visitor Centre, at Middleport, Stoke-on-Trent.

Think Vintage
Some vintage tableware from my china cupboard - inherited from my mother - although the Sooty egg cup was mine when I was little!

Great photos. I had a Sooty cereal bowl when I was little.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos - love the vintage crockery (Carlton ware?) and all the others, of course, including the red door and the lamp post.
