It is time to get your Intuition, ESP, Psychic Viewing and Astral/Etheric Traveling (OBE) abilities warmed up. As it might aid you in this.

The idea of this is that I will offer a description of the area surrounding a certain object in my home. Based soully on that description, you are to guess what the object might be.

RULES
exclaim Have fun with this. I'm not expecting accurate results, but it will be interesting to see how it goes.
exclaim Other than the following description there will be no further information provided about the object itself (until after the closing date and winners announced)
exclaim Please read the description carefully
exclaim People participating in the contest will post an entry containing all of the following information:
Guess as to what the object is
Colour(s)
Shape
aprox size
material ornament is made from
3 details (any possible textures, patterns, images, or whatever that help describe, identify or explain the ornament)

exclaim Focus only on the object, don't worry about its surroundings or position (unless you think it might be backwards or upside down, it isn't btw)
exclaim You may make up to 2 entries and have until July 31/09


PRIZES
exclaim there will be 2 possible ways to win
Partial Guess: a minimum of 3 peices of the entries information matches the actual description of the ornament. Each partially correct entry will recieve 100g

Correct Guess: All of the details requested match a list that will be provided when contest closes (see Judging). Each entry with a correct guess will win a July 09 sealed envelope. However, if there are no Correct Guess winners, those entries with the most correct information will recieve 1000g instead of 100g for partial guesses.

JUDGING
exclaim During the first weekend of August Thyna will provide a picture of the object as well as a list of details I will be looking for. (hopefully reducing discrepancies)
exclaim Entry headings (colour, shape, size ect...) do not have to include the entire list unless otherwise stated
exclaim Thyna has the right to be as leanient or as picky as necessary.

On the following post I will include an example of an object and a list of info I would be looking for (as if it were the one in question) and the description given for the object for the contest.

Good luck, and again have fun with this.

Guess the object:
Area description

Please read carefully

The description has been narrowed onto the focal point instead of going from a broad area to the location of the object. The object is located on my desk against the northern wall of my kitchen. If you need more of a description let me know, but hopefully what I provide should be enough.

You will have to excuse the mess upon my desk. I tend to spend a fair amount of time here so it accumulates a great deal of clutter depending on the project I am working on. The desk itself is made of particleboard with a vinyl covering to give it a woody appearance. It really isn’t very large. The table top has just enough space to hold my lap top and a small scanner/printer. But it does have reasonable cubby space. The base has a cupboard which contains craft items, mostly markers, and coloured pens and pencils, but there is some stuff for scrap-booking, sewing and knitting. In the cubbies above my printer, there is a blue binder which contains the first ½ of a manuscript I’ve writing. Beside it are some DS games my DS light (coral), and instruction manuals for the various electronics and games around my desk. And actually above my computer there is a red photo box, a Kleenex box scrap paper and a medium size Tupperware container with random items in it. There is a container of candies, a bracelet that needs the clasp replaced, a back brace, I-pod, Tarot Cards and my camera.

But really none of that is important as the object rests upon the top shelf. Most of the items are various figurines and pictures. But there is also some glassware and a vas as well as the object in question. The pictures are primarily of my hubby paired up with a member of his family (Mom, cousin & baby brother), and there is one of my two nephews. Most of the figurines are glass, depicting Pegasus, unicorns, and Chinese dragons. There are two soap stone wolf carvings, a pewter wizard that has fallen over, my ceramic yellow baby, a gold metallic racing car that has a small clock (needs a new battery), a clear oil lamp, and two ceramic baby dragons in swim suits. Behind that is a ceramic wolf, the white vas holding pink fabric flowers and at the back right hand corner is my little girl figure that can hold onto sewing items if needed. The object sits towards the front and obscures a couple of the glass dragons, the vas and the girl figure.
