Being it's all cold and snowy and dreary and just a lonnnnnnnng winter, I thought perhaps I'd do a fun give-a-way.
The way to enter is very simple....
1. You can be or do not have to be a follower of my blog. I will still like you either way. You can feel free to post it on your blog or not.
2. Please leave me a comment here on this post saying Hi or whatever you want to to talk about -please do not post your guess here - I want you to email me your guess and out of the correct guesses a name will randomly be chosen - perhaps by Riley and Jonesy (they do so love to play with paper balls). You can email your guess here
3.In your email with your guess, or I don't mind if you post a comment with your choices, please tell me your choice of prize! (See below) Perhaps I'll do two prizes for two winners - Will have to see!!!
Okay now for the pictures.
The other day during my antiquing and junking outing with Judy, I found one of these. This is a picture of mine that was given to me. It was made by my Mom's Uncle Bob (he would be over 100 years old now had he lived) and his wife, Aunt Mary had painted. I remember it as a very little girl in their house. I found one that I want to re-finish and maybe hang a small rug on the front to re-sell at one of my shows this fall.
Tell me what this is...
One side...(other side is identical)...
Side view...
Remember to email me your guess!
Now for the prize. I will hook you either an Easter colored egg or a Redware Egg - your choice! If you absolutely hate the egg, I will do a small mat for you in some type of geometric (your colors) in about the same size. All your choice!
here are some examples of some eggs I did recently... remember yours will be hooked after name is picked...
Being it's an "egg" and Easter is April 24 - I will make the deadline Wednesday April 6, 2011. That will give me time to hook and get an egg to you to enjoy before Easter. There will definitely be one winner, possibly two!
Have fun. I'm sure this is too easy but I'm hoping to stump some! Good luck!

Pug hugs :)
Lauren

I'm with Lauren...have been antiquing for years and don't think I've every come across one of these....will have to get Kenny to take a look and see if he has any ideas.
I'm with Judy... I know, I know, I know, but can't enter either :). Good luck everyone. Put your thinking caps on. What a wonderful give away. Love the eggs.
Hey Judy, I'm thinking we need to get a prize for not spilling the beans. What do you think lol? (just teasing ;)) cause I know Joanne, she'd get us a bag of beans lol.

Wow Joanne!!! I am totally stumped!! I keep thinking of ideas and then the more I think of them, the more silly I feel they are!!! I must have mislaid my "thinking cap" somewhere!! I have NO clue!!! By the way, I LOVE the eggs!!
Blessings~~

I do not know - for sure - what it is. But I do know, instantly what my mind said it was.
I hope, when I tell you, you'll laugh!
Great looking eggs and what a wonderful group of textile artists you have. Wish I was there, girlfriend.
Oh my goodness, I love the redware egg! Please enter me! :)
This is a very clever give-away! I'm sure after we know what it is, it will be an 'OH, that's what it is" moment!
Thanks,
Wanda
