Guess the Mystery Thing: Pink and Swirly and Strange.

Hi, girls and guys!  It's time once again for that very popular challenge game, Guess the Mystery Thing and Win Because It's Unique and Pink and You Want It But Also Because Mich is Way Too Confident This Time and is Convinced She Will Stump You and You Need to Show Her That Hubris Will Be Her Downfall if She Persists in Gloating in Advance Not to Mention Being Extremely Unladylike.

Guess the Mystery Thing for short.

Here are two pink, swirly, interesting necklaces:




The oval one is a photo locket, and the flowery charm is a thistle.

I do wonder what you guys think of these?  They're definitely a bit strange, but there's a sort of kind of Valentine-y air about them?  Maybe?  Hmm.  Hopefully at least some of you will like them enough to play.

So the question is, what the heck is that pink stuff?

There will be two winners: first correct guess and most creative guess, to be chosen by moi.


If nobody gets it right, there will be a random winner chosen by my Patented High-Tech Cutting-Edge Randomizer Program (my mom picks a number).  So even if you're stumped, you could still win!

The rules:

1. Open to anyone, anywhere.  (You don't even have to be a follower of the blog, although I would lurve it if you were!)
2. If your email isn't available to me in one click from an online profile, be sure to include your email address with your guess.

Hint: the little horsie in the photo has nothing whatsoever to do with the Mystery Thing.  I just thought he was cute.


Okay, y'all - here we go.  Guess the Mystery Thing!!!

THIS CHALLENGE IS NOW CLOSED!  THANKS, EVERYONE!

    Once again you have created something wonderful & mysterious. I will guess that the pink swirly things are pieces of a swim cap.

    Thanks for letting us play!

    hmmm...If I am allowed 2 guesses I think it is either a plastic tube that you have cut open or they are 2 sides of a small thimble like container in which you get jelly or sticky candy...either way they are quirky :)

    Well, you have stumped me this time. My guess is that you have figured out a way to plasticize Pepto-Bismal!

    Are you sure the horse has nothing to do with it? Because those definitely look like the hooves of a My Little Pony toy.

    When Trivial Pursuit was new and different and popular I worked with a woman who always gave the same answer when she was stumped – "Tip O'Neil". I will do the same but my answer to your questions will always be "part of a Pez dispenser".
    Still loving the Chess piece pendant necklace.

    I was also going to guess a swim cap. But since it's been guessed, I'm going with my second guess... a cut up bath mat.

    Between the horse and the "y'all", I'm sensing a western theme here.... My guess: parts from plastic toy cowboy boots.

    amirightoramiright?

    They are pink cat wellington boots, the kinda thing you make them war to stop them from scratching you bannister because it isn't your bannister but your landlord's bannister, and ripping their claws out would be incredibly cruel.
    Right?

    This game is so fun! I enjoy it more than any other "give away" that I have run across. My guess is that you have found a way to make a pattern on shrink plastic... and you are taunting us with it. You are evil, you know!

    I think it's made from some kind of plastic, rubbery thing... that came from... something... eh, I don't know. Alright, taking a shot in the dark: the ends of a baton. Those little kid ones with the water and glitter in them. Not even close, but it's the only thing I can think of after wracking my brain.

    A contraception device? No, you wouldn't go that far. A rubber end cap turned inside out?

  31. AllisonJanuary 24, 2011 at 12:35 PM

    my guess is the rubber off a handle of a hair brush.
