Lost: Unraveling the Mystery is a new documentary that focuses on how Lost fans have attempted to solve the show’s mysteries over the past 6 years.

The producers of the DVD are holding a contest in conjuction with its release and the winners of that contest will receive a pot of sand from the island of Oahu–yes, a little piece of the island to keep forever. (Click here to read the press release for the contest or visit www.pushingthebutton.com for more information.)
With such a unique prize at stake, the documentary’s producers are in need of an equally unique Lost-inspired pot or container in which to place the sand from Oahu. Since The Loophole is where the most creative and artistically minded Lost fans can be found, it only makes sense that someone from our community would create the holders. So here’s the deal:
1. Make a Lost-inspired pot/container capable of holding sand from Oahu.
2. Take a picture of it.
3. Email a photo of the container to theloopholelostforum@yahoo.com. (Or, if you already have an Etsy store just post it there and send me a link.)
4. The creators of the Top 3 containers will WIN A FREE COPY of Lost:Unraveling the Mystery and their containers will be shown to the producers!
There isn’t time to waste–the deadline is February 16.
