Here’s a little something I cooked up to give away a set of pictures that would look elegant in anyone’s house or even on a porch. Just play my Unconscious Mutterings “game” and, (to the sound of trumpets blaring), YOU COULD WIN!
The winner is going to be chosen by a random number generator deal AND said winner will receive this wonderful prize! (My legal department urges me strongly to remind you all that the term, “wonderful” is entirely subjective.)
The contest will be over in 7 days. Next Wednesday, February 4th.
Whatev.
These two, 12″ x 14″ prints are on some sort of hard, lightweight board that is hollow. They are one inch thick and have sawtooth hangers on the backs of them. The “paintings” are lightly textured. The colors in the following photos is pretty true to life. Very dusty purples and other muted shades. They are pretty and lightweight. Could be hung up on a wall with a straight pin. Don’t laugh. When I was a child my mother’s friend across the street let on that every picture in her house was hung with steel straight pins. Nothing ever fell!
Oops, I digressed. I’m always doing that! Wonder if there’s any such thing as a professional digress-er? Wonder if they feel at all threatened by me?
Now what was I talking about? OH! Right!
Here’s the pics.
I was standing on the bed to take these. Why didn’t I just lay them on the carpet, you ask? Good question.
And finally here is the back of one of them and don’t be fooled! My bed is actually NOT made. Just smoothed out for the sake of the photos. OH THE SHAME! DON’T TELL MITHER!
OK, here are the latest from the recesses of my dusty, disturbed, dark, leeetle mind. As before, I suggest that you copy and paste the words in the comment box and fill it out before you read anyone else’s, just because it makes it easier to think freely… Or is that just me? Probably me.

Oh, that’s because I was first. First! Why are folks so happy to be first?
witchypoo’s last blog post..Leftovers
Good grief.
My answers aren’t RIGHT, (and very seldom are), it’s just that I tend to think more freely if I haven’t already been subjected to someone else’s… freethinking.
Yeah. I’m probably the only one with that problem… Whatever.
