I'd guess Christmas is the right hollyday.

Very, very close Stormy. It is not an actual living plant. It is associated with remembrance and a specific holiday. This holiday is known by different names in the various countries in which it's celebrated.

If it helps Doodle, this holiday is celebrated in the US. It is in fact a Federal holiday if that helps narrow it down.

You were closer with your previous guess. This became a federal holiday with it's own day of observance in Canada in 1931. Previous to that it was celebrated on the same day as another unrelated Holiday.

It couldn't be a Rose seedling, I'm not sure what is worn for Thanksgiving or Easter other than roses or various Lilies as Lilies tend to grow almost to December in Canada's coldest regions but I'm guessing it is from some sort of bush that grows in the wild which would be wild Roses that can be light pink to almost red?

Yay Doodle !!!!! Ding Ding Ding !!!!

Denyflatulence got the holiday and you got the object. It all fell together so quickly. Leave it to me to run off just when things are coming down to the wire.

Awesome guessing everyone, I know this was a strange one and you guys were actually very fast to guess.



I'm going to say, It's your well earned turn Doodle

If Bigcountry is around, I'd like to pass my turn to him since he guessed my fishing reel.

I'll check back in awhile and see if he has posted anything.

Thank you OP for this fun little thread! I love discovering these little weird items.

Looks like he has been offline for awhile and I don't want to hold up the game.

Here it is,


This was handmade for me by an elderly man. It has a very specific use.

I must say that when he gave it to me, that was also my first thought. However no, it isn't that.

So it's basically a phallus with another intended "use." Gotcha!

Haha, I guess so. So you need to discover the intended use.

(It is made of wood, and could leave splinters.....)
