Guess the Mystery Thing: Little White Guitars.

Okay, people, 'tis time...time for a new round of Guess the Mystery Thing!  If you can identify the strange upcycled objects in these jewels, you could win one.






Those white plastic doodads are the mystery.  Don't they look like teeny guitars, sort of?



So...who knows what they are?  Anyone?

Leave your guess in the comments.  There will be two winners: first correct guess and one random guess.  If nobody gets it, there will be two random winners.  So even if you're stumped, guess anyway, you could still win.  The crazier the guess, the better!  

This giveaway is open to anyone, anywhere.  (You don't even have to be a follower of the blog, although I would lurve it if you were.) 
The one and only rule: 

1.  If your email isn't available in one click from an online profile, be sure to include your email address with your guess.

Alrighty, then.  Go ahead with your bad self.  On your marks...get set...Guess the Mystery Thing!!!


UPDATE: THIS CHALLENGE IS NOW CLOSED.  THANKS FOR PLAYING, EVERYONE!

    Lately I've been having to snap off a little plastic piece that gets stuck between the plastic milk container and the handle. The cheap equipment they use to manufacture the plastic milk containers obviously doesn't cut all the way through and they make us poke it out. Maybe once upon a time they had someone do that job, but in these hard economic times that position has been eliminated.

    Somewhere there is a teeny little British punk rocker crying in his hair gel because you stole his favorite opaque Flying V.

    And his teeny little amp was even set to 11.

    Those are the plastic pieces you twist off of the fruit drink bottles. I think. Or they are the guitars the crickets use in my garden to play their music that keeps me up half the night.

    I tend towards some sort of stirrer thing...but I am always wrong.

    I do like them though - especially the first earring pair.

    They look like the twist-off seals of small tubes - like tubes of superglue or medicine.

    They are a new range of IKEA fix it all- thingies. Metal became to expensive, and if they wanna keep knocking out cheapo Kottbullar for all the family to enjoy, they gotta start saving somewhere!

    On second thought... Periwinkle probably nailed it. If she wins, I wonder if she'll skip a dose and have a little dance? :D (please don't count this entry!)

    I'd say they're for applying polydent to dentures, mind you I hope none of us ever know of such a thing, or for smoothing out the grout on the edge of your lovely just complete mosaic table.

    no idea what those are... never seen such things... stumped am I... downright flummoxed, perplexed and baffled... so I guess I'll guess... they could possibly be some form of packaging. you know sometimes you get a new thing and it comes with some interesting bits of plastic that help keep the whole thing from falling apart in the package. see what I'm driving at?

    I agree with Laurie, I think they are from dental flossers...but maybe they're just some cute little piece of nothing that came to you in the night calling, "Craft with me!!!" :)

    If I am not too late, I am going to guess that they are the plastic thingy's placed inside of a man's new shirt collar to keep it stiff until it is taken to the dry cleaners, lol!
