Hi Everyone!
Here is the posting of winners for my second NBUS Challenge! The response was even more over-whelming than the wild participation in the first NBUS Challenge! There were a total of THREE HUNNERT AND EIGHT (308!) entries!! Reach around and pat yourself on whatever you can reach without pulling a wing out of its socket!
You guys are the best for supporting my movement to bring love and attention and scissors and ink to the neglected Never-Before-Used-Schtuff languishing in craft rooms all over the world! Younger, prettier, more modern products appear and tempt us constantly, pushing the older models to the back of the shelf before they've ever been used. Some even drop down behind.
But no longer! In a world going green and fighting against bullying and waste, we ... oh, never mind. I'm preaching to the choir!!
Congratulations to all the winners chosen by Hammy, in colladoration with Dr. and Mrs. Random Org. While not setting any presidents, with over 300 entries, how could I not award FIFTEEN prizes?!
Let's give the winners a huge round of applause!!

Darling friend. I'm pretty sure that when God saw that he needed an earthly angel, he decided that you way more than qualified for the position. How sweet of you to not only make up NBUS, make up a challenge with prizes, but then go and add even more prizes!!!! You are a dear friend to so many of us out here in blogland. You really are an angel. We are all blessed to know you. Bev
Congrats to ALL winners!!
Hanging head in shame that i didn't join! I will be certain to play along in your next one my friend! ;)

A big well done to all those who entered and those who won some super prizes! An ever bigger pat on the back to you Darnell for bringing everyone together and inspiring us to use our NBUS because we are all guilty of hoarding it!!
Unfortunately, I have been suffering with a lack of time and internet connection and it's only just been resolved so I missed the deadline - I am now eagerly awaiting the NBUS challenge #3!
Congratulations to all the winners! What fabulous entries and creative designs. Thank you Darnell for giving us that push to pull out all the old schtuff and start using it! Not that this alone will change my hoarding habits, but it might take the edge off!
