I do not own any Washi Tape.  I don't really like it.  I've seen it come in some really pretty patterns and themes, but I just like the look of ribbon better.  And, I've got quite a bit of ribbon.  Say "Hello" to my ribbon jar.  This jar is an Anchor Hocking Barrel Jar.  The mouth of the jar is between 4.5 and 4.75 inches across.  The jar is just a hair over 8 inches tall, and the width/diameter of the glass is just a hair over 7 inches.  For perspective, I have taken a pic of the jar with a gallon of milk.



I'm also including a pic of some of my ribbons so that you can see that I have ribbons of all sizes -- skinny and thin as well as wide and chunky.



Now, there is nothing in the jar over 36 inches in length, and I have removed all scraps so that there is nothing under 12 inches.  So what you see in the jar falls between 12 and 36 inches.  What I want you to do is guess how many pieces of ribbon I have in my jar!  The Cherry with the correct answer, or the answer closest to the correct answer will win 250 points, plus a RAK from me which will include a selection of Washi or Ribbon, your choice (new from the shop)!  You have until 9:00 PM on Sunday, May 5, to submit your answers.  Please be sure to submit your answer on this thread.  NO PMs for this game, please. 

So Cherries . . . how many ribbons are in the jar?

Hmmm....I haven't played this game in a long time!  I will say 143 pieces of ribbon.
