Last week’s theme for Photo of the Day was What is it? or extreme close-ups. I had fund looking at household items and finding the fun details usually ignored. Here are the photos and the answers are below.

1. garlic press
2. third hand
3. corkscrew
4. cookie scoop
5. crop-a-dile II big bite
6. game time backhoe
7. cheese slicer

Very interesting tools. I would not have guessed #1 is a garlic press, and so do the others. A lesson learned today, and thanks for sharing.

I have to ask you how you like your croc-a-dile… I’ve been considering buying one. I use my hand tools to set eyelets…. Enjoyed the guessing game. My daughter and I used to look at a book of hers at night that was made up of extreme close-ups.

Very fun, I’m so happy you posted the ‘answers’. I was stumped on every single one! :)

Well, this is embarrassing — I don’t have a blessed clue! I’m glad you posted the list so I could narrow down my “guesses,” but I don’t even know what #5 IS. But the mosaic itself is very interesting — I love the colors. It looks like it would hang on the wall of a very funky SoHo loft — reflecting its industrial roots and all that!

So THAT’S what they all were! I was also stumped on every single one!

This was fun! I have no clue what a crop-a-dial II big bite is but I think the only thing I “might” have guessed is the cheese slicer anyway! Who knew all those details were there!
