I'd love one (only one, I'd have to lock it away from Luna) Geeky things related to my fandoms, Studio Ghibli creatures, cats, lizards, dragons would all be good Or cat toys!

Pet owners - would you like any kind of toy or supply for your pet? Cat toys without cat nip

Any yarn, plastic, metal, or fabric sensitivities? I have to have sterling silver earring wires
would you like pretty stationery/note cards, etc, for writing snail mail? I don't write snail mail but I'd love a pad of cute paper for putting notes in swap packages

If I were to make you something based on one or more interests mentioned in your Q'aire/blog, would you prefer something you could wear, something that hangs on a wall, or something that sits on a shelf (or couch or wherever)? Wearable is favourite, with wall hanging second. Killer kitten destroys things left on shelves :(

Do you like candles? Incense? Wax melts? I like candles but am short of room for them now
BAGS! Do you like/want/need any kind of bags? I would be happy to get tote bags that I could use for gardening stuff, especially the type made from reused feed bags that someone switchywitchy makes/has family that makes, or other ones that can stand up to dirt.

What's your favorite animal/totem? Would you be interested in a small figurine of said animal from this etsy user? cat, dragon, lizard ... I wouldn't like a figurine due to Killer Kitten, but those Toothless bags are adorable <3

Oh dead Witchee, how do you feel about Sakura Matsuri? Do you like Green Tea and Sakura flavored desserts/treats? Decorations or jewelry with a cherry blossom theme? I like cherry blossom as decoration but can't stand the taste, and dont really like green tea either
Hey, witchee! If I were to send you a garment, what size would I send? Difficult, as I'm busy dropping a load of weight. It's really best, outside of XXL crew t-shirts, to ask me specifically

Also - what are the last 5 songs that appeared on your random or shuffle music list

I will sew you one if you do, just tell me if you're a fringe or lace edge or plain edge type of person- I have your color picks from your questionnaire, unless you'd like it in something different than those? Plain edge please
I was thinking about busting out the sculpy clay - I sometimes like to make cute little fantasy miniature sculpture, like fairy doors, or miniature garden gnomes for potted plants, or I've even made a couple of tiny smaug's based on this cartoon. If you were my witchee, how would you feel about receiving some tiny fantasy art for your home? Any preference between a fairy door, or a garden gnome, a tiny fairy box, or something like smaug?

I keep all my wishlists up to date, but ignore the 'shops' bit on Etsy as sometimes those are things for other people.
Alcohol: You might not be able to send it because customs, but I drink spirits except the hell that is tequila. I prefer Irish whiskey, rum, brandy, mead
Pumpkin - I don't mind it
Yellowstone/huckleberries - I have never tried huckleberries, would love to
Decorating - very eclectic, so here's a wall from my old house which I have not as yet had the spare time to replicate, but it's on the list!
For those of you who don't drink alcohol, can you specify if you live with any drinkers or ever have alcohol on hand for guests, vs. abstaining and preferring not to have it around at all?

What's your sense of humor like? Do you enjoy puns? Play on words? Dirty humor? Dry humor? Who are some of your favorite comedians?

Do you like board games? If so, which ones? Traditional or more unique? (like Settlers of Catan, Small World, Red Dragon Inn, etc)
I love Smallworld and Munchkin and play board games with one of my partners. Really want to try Cards Against Humanity but also mentioned this in the 13 Nights swap so maybe check with my swapper there.
Is there anything that you specifically do NOT want to receive? Religious stuff
Plain or fun socks? I like both - I like subtle fun ones rather than full-on, and I like interesting textured plain ones. Love stripey socks too, but no toe socks please
Name one (or as many as you would like) thing you would like to learn more about? I still have a lot to learn about gardening, sorely tempted to learn baking but then I might eat more (I refer you to the conflicted bit in my questionnaire!)
What one thing you would like to do more of? exercise, relax, playpiano (learn to count )
What are some things that fascinate you? Or, What would you like to know more about? my real fascination is the social history of diseases, I own books on things like how different disease through the ages have been touted as 'evidence' of sin, like how at one point Leprosy had all the same social commentary as HIV did later. I still have a few flu and smallpox books on my wishlist!
Would you like any cookie butter (just to be clear, store-bought, not home-made, and does contain wheat since it's, y'know, cookie butter)? No thanks, I hate it
Is there any particular piece (or pieces) of art (painting, photograph, etc) that speaks to you in some way? I did a long answer in the thread but basically pre-raphaelite
What kinds of things would you like from the Lilith BPAL or BPTP update (or are you joining a decant circle?) I've joined a decant circle
Do you want to received knit or crocheted items? If so, could you describe or even link to a couple of items similar to what you would like to receive?

What thing do you want to do (or get) but you keep putting off for one reason or another?
Would you like anything from Lush?
No thank you, I've been shopping from them since before they were called Lush!
Do you prefer hand-made or store-bought? I like both
SPICY! Scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being "oh, that's a bit too much black pepper for me" and 10 being "ghost pepper? scorpion pepper? I laugh at these! I love as much heat as you can throw my way!" Where are you? probably 6
What is your BPAL "Holy Grail"?
Tea (the Luper) ranks high because you can't search for it on the forum, but also Banshee Beat because I stupidly sold my spare bottle
Analog or Digital? Or Both? Analog for films, either for books, digital for music
What scents from other perfume companies are you really wanting to have in your collection and or are just really wanting to test? Companies like NAVA, Arcana, Solstice Scents, Possets, Haus of Gloi etc.....? Just the two on my wishlist
Do you have an affinity for any specific animals?
Cats, rats, little lizards, ducks if they're rubber!
Kitchen Needs or Wants?
A pepper grinder that actually works well, interesting spice mixes from your area (except Hawaii - I have a ton of spices from there from a previous round)
Makeup! Do you like it, would you want some? If so what brands do you like to wear? Eyeliner is all I wear, and I prefer the sort that sharpens itself. I usually wear Clinique in brown, grey, green purple or black
Chocolate fiends ahoy! What kind of chocolate do you like? Do you like any other things in it or just plain good ole chocolate? Love chocolate especially Ghiradelli, Lindt, Seattle Chocolate, Suchard, Montezuma. I like things in it but not whole almonds as I broke a tooth on one of those. Itty bitty almond is fine.
Would you be opposed to receiving a ton of Halloween themed items? I don't really do Halloween so it would be a waste
Would you be interested in any special little thing I might be able to pick up from the Great Lakes Bat Festival this Saturday? Both Janell Cannon (author of Stellaluna and other kids' books) and Fiona Reid (illustrator for lots of animal field guides) will be there, so would you possibly be interested in something like an autographed copy of Stellaluna or one of Cannon's or Reid's other books? Or something from the Organization for Bat Conservation, like a shirt or other swag?
If there ended up being a bat print available I'd like that
What items from the Weenie update interest you, should you have to option of getting anything as a gift from your Witch??? Would you be ok with decants, or bottles?
I'm going to get decants of:
Second Spring
Apples II, III, IV and V
Young Woman Appealing To A Witch
Depart Pour Le Sabbat
Liebeszauber
The Magic Circle
The Witches
Witches Kitchen
Portrait of an Unidentified Man As Mephistopheles
I'm not going to buy until I've tried decants but my most likely needs for bottles are:
Witches Kitchen
Portrait of an Unidentified Man As Mephistopheles
What's your favorite scary movie? I don't like horror films because people are generally stupid. So i'd probably pick a Clive Barker film like Nightbreed, but in no way could I call any of them a favourite. I listed my other favourites in the original questionnaire.
Blu-ray or DVD?
Either is fine but they need to be Region 2 for Europe
Game systems - console or computer? Mac/PC? Which console? The only game I really have time for now is Sunless Sea, the standalone spin off from Fallen London, which I play on my Mac
Are you dressing up for Halloween and if so do you need any accessories for if? I don't dress up

Firefly, Babylon 5, Dr Who, Gotham

Some tiny place?) but I also want to know the other stuff: top 3 flavors, loose or bagged, the kinds of tea accessories you use- or have always wanted. Be specific. Provide links if necessary.
Bagged tea will get more use but I do own a teapot and strainer. I love chais, earl//lady grey and smoky black teas like Lapsang and Russian Caravan

Enjoy! 1) https://www.catcoven.com/ any of the 2XL leggings or Dream cat slouchy tee if they weren't sold out, 2) https://www.mineralgypsy.com no thank you 3) https://www.redbubble.com/people/thelatestkate/shop a gazillion of the cat prints made me cry. If you needed me to pick one get someone to prod me. Notebooks, prints, acrylic blocks 4) https://www.marikapaz.com/shop/ no thank you 5) https://www.faunwood.com Took A Wrong Turn notebook 6) https://www.shannatrumbly.com/ Beautiful but not for me 7) https://fiddlersgreenzine.com no thank you 8 ) https://www.hedgespokenpress.com no thank you One of the things I do is make nifty things from sweaters that I cut up & upcycle into things like super warm mittens, arm warmers, striped arm warmers, cowls, teapot cozies, & French press cozies. I don't have a slipper I love yet, but I'm working on it. So, which of these things might you like? Give me some thoughts on colors you like & if for a teapot or press, I need to know a size. The only thing I would want is a weird creation of my own devising - arm warmers that go from shoulder to elbow only (quite wide for large arms) and joined across the back to hold them in place. Colours - purple/blue/green/black but honestly anything other than pink or yellow. I have tons of fingerless gloves, mostly made by Twi! I enjoy historical reproductions and am a fan of LBCC Historical Apothecary. Is there something in her store you might be interested in? Oh yes! Enchanted Woodland powder & a puff or Cucumber Cold Cream 9/12/20 Does anyone like the prints or items from www.ElissaMarieCreative.com ? I have a few of her prints and the notebooks and they are quality! The Mewl prints are fun What about www.drawingsbynicole.com? Anything specific? no thank you Does anything from www.vapidlacquer.com stick out to you? Nonsense polish, nail elixir in Continuity or Dulcet I do pour painting/acrylic fluid art (with varying degrees of success, haha). Would you like a custom piece in colors of your choice (takes 3-4 weeks with curing, longer if you want it sealed, so it would arrive post-round if custom) or a piece already finished in my collection? I have mostly 12 x 12 and 10 x 10s right now. Pics available upon request! Probably not 9/11/20 Do you have a particular fandom you'd like stuff from? Firefly, Captain Marvel, Ms Marvel, Studio Ghibli, Babylon 5 How do you feel about tea? Preferences? Would you want anything from David's Tea (https://www.davidstea.com/us_en/home/), Steepologie (https://www.steepologie.com/), Bird & Blend (https://birdandblendtea.com/us_en/), or do you have a favorite tea maker to suggest? What about tea tools or cups? I like black teas, chai or smoky flavours How do you feel about fragrant things for the home like incense, candles, atmosphere spray? Atmo sprays are good, as are candles with a safe holder/container rather than things that go in a candlestick. Incense gets too messy. Do you share your home with any loved ones (human, feline, canine, etc.) who might enjoy a tiny treat too? 3 cats who like toys, but no catnip please as one is allergic 9/9/20 would anybody like a small cross stitch thing, like a patch or pin? or cross stitching notions like handmade needle minders? not my sort of thing 9/8/20 Art and artists - anyone dig any of this? https://www.studiodesade.com/ (They also do masks, see here.) Not really my sort of thing If you knit/crochet/weave, would you like custom dyed yarn? And if so do you have preference on weight, fiber, colors? I don't do that sort of craft what is one fun/frivolous thing for $20 or less that you’d enjoy? USB or battery halloween string lights, fancy garden stakes If I sent you to a dollar store with $20, what would you walk out with? Plant pots, wooden plant labels, medium sized food storage boxes 9/5/20 what are your feelings on home made/ home canned jams & pickles or syrups? I even make things with berries I grow in my garden. I make both brandied & bourbon cherries. Syrups good for cocktails, in lemonade or tea, flavors include Lavender, Lavender + Lemon, & Lavender + Vanilla. Interested? Cherries sound lovely but probably quite heavy to ship. I wouldn't eat lavender anything. Is there something that you're especially hoping to receive for this round? For example, a brand you've heard of that you're especially wanting to try, or a certain "thing" that you really want but just cant bring yourself to buy for yourself?? Would you rather receive supplies/tools for your own craft/hobby or receive something you can't make yourself? Something I can't make myself Is there anything you'd like from Penzeys (https://www.penzeys.com/)? Pico Fruta and Arizona Dreaming look interesting 9/3/20 Would you like anything from here? https://www.etsy.com/shop/TaterRoundsBeauty No thank you 9/2/20 Would you like a face mask from one of my favorite artists? https://akumuink.com/collections/facemasks No thank you one of our fellow BPAL friends makes custom masks, Hakutaku Custom Masks on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/HakutakuMasks/ ). Would anyone be interested in one of her masks? I love these - 15, 17 & of course 40 are the best 9/1/20 are you familiar with https://www.a-natural-alternative.com/ ? Take a peak & let me know if you might like to try something. 8/30/20 Is there anything you want from Japan? Other than that, anime goods, cute stationery, other Japanese snacks, lay it on me! Rice crackers and teriyaki chips, cute stationery, ground white sesame seeds, a secondhand large haori What are your favorite self-care items or activities? I'm especially curious about things that you hesitate to do/get because they feel like frivolous luxuries. My self care was always lovely meals out, so failing at an answer right now. I garden to relax 8/29/20 Does anything from Paintbox Soapworks catch your eye (http://paintboxsoapworks.com/)? GOAT or Pick-a-Duck candles Does anything from the Trading Post's etsy page catch your eye (https://www.etsy.com/shop/bptradingpost)? Atmos - Sanjuana Rokkasen and Manao Tupapau

BPAL/BPTP: in my signature Would you like anything from Future Primitive? (It's fine to mention OOS things) https://futureprimitivesoap.co.uk/ - my question, and I have far too much! Does anyone have a favorite horror movie that they love? Need a copy/DVD of? No thank you Do you like smallish knitted stuff (hats, fingerless mittens, scarves, toys, etc. -- be specific!)? Cat toys, but don't need hats or gloves unless ... long half fingered arm warmers wide enough for my lower arms Do any of these knitted items appeal to you? Odyssey Shawl Knitted Pumpkins Little Bear Stuffy How do you feel about thrift store finds (assuming they're in good condition and have been thoroughly cleaned before shipping)? It's all good 9/20/19 I may have bought several full size Rituel de Fille makeup items in a frenzy over their whole vibe. If I tested something once or twice (and it can be sanitized), would you be interested? I only use eyeliner Are you interested in trying different skincare products from higher end, clean brands? no thank you, skin is incredibly tetchy these days Any interest in anything from Torrid, noting their "fangirl" and Halloween collections are updated? The Capatin Marvel zip hoodie What on the following list would you like to receive something related to (or have something donated to in your and Joni's honor?) · turtles · inappropriate candies (either in shape or in contents—ex., boozy candies, creatively shaped peanut brittle…) I'll be going to Seattle, London and Paris during this round- anything you'd love to have from any of these locations? Seattle chocolates are always well received, and in London I want a meet up! Is there anything you would particularly like from Japan? Stationary, bento supplies, a particular snack, etc. The fall flavors for kitkats this year are Chestnut, Sweet Potato and Apple Pie. Chestnut or apple pie kit kats, cute washi tape or notebooks, Studio Ghibli items, a little kitsugi bowl, Japanese 5 pepper mix, good tamari 9/22/19 Thinking about really good natural food stores like Natural Grocers or Whole Foods, if you could have ANY bath and beauty or body care items, what would you love? Also what kind of treats, snacks, foods, condiments, bulk items, teas, housewares from the same natural food stores would you love? Cashews if fair trade, tamari or fish sauce Also, are there any particular sustainable kitchen or household items you would love to receive? wooden spatulas, light drawstring produce bags, silicon zip bags 9/23/19 Did anything catch your eye from the Liliths? Impromptu Goat Yoga <3, plus also Bullseye, Generation Spooky, Lazy Daisy (even though its got jasmine), Social Justice Paladin Would you like anything from Lush? No thank you 9/26/19 Is there anything kind of weird and niche about which you feel this way, fellow witchees? I am rather a medical history geek (but please don't give me smallpox!) Kickstarter (and similar): Any thoughts, witches? I was reading that they were refusing to allow a union and fired two union organisers and so I am now boycotting them. I have 2 Patreons and do like them. 9/28/19 Do you have an Etsy/Goodreads/Amazon or anything else wishlist you’d like to share? at the top of this blog And what’s your preferred wrist/necklace size? in my questionnaire Does anything from Bird & Blend take your fancy? my question, I get lots from there Knitting questions have have been asked, but how about wash cloths, anyone need any? What colors?? not for me thanks is there anything from World Market that tickles your fancy? I like the various geometric desk organisers, then I wandered into the cookware section and there is far too much and its too heavy, but I love the little magnetic coloured spice tins 9/29/19 There's a special thing happening over at Rituel de Fille this weekend, where some gorgeous makeup items are coming back for just a couple of days. I'll be placing an order Sunday or Monday- anything that might strike your fancy, either from the special sale or from the site in general? (https://ritueldefille.com) I only use self sharpening eyeliner How do you feel about tarot or oracle decks? Would you be interested in any (for artwork or for mystical purposes)? New or used? Not for me, while they're usually really pretty, I no longer use them. My life feels like it is continuously The Tower. Would pigment samples from companies like M.A.C. or Notoriously Morbid tickle your fancy? If so, what colors catch you eye? Not for me 9/30/19 do you have a favourite saying or quote? Far too many so I'll just pick these: In order to fly all one must do is simply miss the ground - Douglas Adams We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars - Oscar Wilde Not today - Arya Stark/Syrio Forel (in case you have no idea what I'm talking about, see https://youtu.be/ZcjQ4rQQ8H8 - that entire 5 minscene got me through chemo on some very bad days) How do you feel about spicy foods, and where on the Scoville scale do you hit your limit? Much less able to tolerate than I used to be - probably around 1000 right now. I'm hoping it improves again
How do you feel about coloring books, especially those pertaining to a personal interest or fandom? I always get them and never use them so it would be a waste 10/1/19 A few questions have been asked about knitted items--are crocheted equivalents acceptable? (crocheted fingerless gloves, shawls, etc.) Any fiber issues? crochet is fine, nothing itchy please About the Weenies: please list what you've bought or are definitely purchasing for yourself *as well as* what you would like to possibly receive from someone else! I'm not buying anything immediately during the round, waiting for reviews. I'm interested in: Fall Leaves, Fall Les Heures de la Nuit Hypnotize Me Songs of Autumn 1 - most interested Songs of Autumn 4 Chlorophyll - most interested Dear Witchee, are you at all boozy? Anywhere between hard cider to straight whisk(e)y? And any interest in the "unusual" stuff? (unusual as in non-mainstream, local craft ciders or meads, regional fruit wines, experiments from local distilleries, etc) I drink Irish whiskey, proper mead and Jack Daniels with or without honey. 10/2/19 Nail Polish: Do you need or want some? If so, what colors and brands are you interested in? I wear it in winter when not gardening. I like pale and unicorn like for my hands, dark and dramatic for my toes. I generally only succumb to BPTP nail varnishes because that's where I see them! For darks, purples, greens, jade, teal Does anyone else do nail wraps? Nope What about postcards? Not for me Is anyone interested in anything from the Nocturne Alchemy Halloween release (or, presumably, anything else from the site)? If you really need me to look, get someone to prod me, its all a bit overwhelming How do you feel about salt? I don’t mean, like, salted nuts or potato chips. I mean straight-up salt, like alder-smoked finishing salt or Hana Flake sea salt. I have some smoked salt flakes but I forget to use it so probably a waste 10/3/19 I am infamous for baking (shortbreads savory and sweet, poundcake, various cookies and bars), butter caramels (flavored or plain), and catnip. Are any of these relevant to you or your household? shortbread and caramel/fudge would find a home. I avoid much catnip because my cats are mad enough already Do you like to cook and do you need/want any spices for such pursuits? More long pepper, but I think that's easier to get over in the UK Would you wear any of these? Fern , Nuada, Manannan, Duleek Abbey or an infinity scarf or tube cowl tall enough for a hood (like this scarf or this cowl for shape example)? I like Duleek Abbey Do you have any utilitarian needs for everyday life? Things that would help or that you've been needing or wanting for work or whatever? Lightweight produce bags for loose dry goods or fruit/veg What kind of vegan snacks do you like? And vegan chocolate...favorites? I don't like vegan chocolate really. I like puffed chickpea snacks such as Hippeas, especially the smoky flavour, blue corn chips, corn puff type things 10/4/19 How would you describe your crafting style? Whimsical & Cute? Elegantly modern? Totally Traditional? Erm ... Inept? 10/6/19 So....we are about to process a metric f*ton of green tomato relish, which is basically bread and butter pickles but with sliced green cherry tomatoes. Is this relevant to any witchees? I like pickles but have zero idea what bread and butter pickles are. Love relishes! How do you celebrate Halloween/Samhain? Do you dress up? Would you like something for your costume? And am I the only person left on the planet who wears socks? I don't dress up but I do wear socks, as long as they are not longer than mid calf 10/7/19 Are you interested in anything from Art Of Tea or Adagio Teas? I like black teas, 1896 looks interesting on Art of Tea, from Adagio I like the look of Cat Scratch, Candy Apple Concoction and Thai tea
I make light-weight hairfalls, doll-style, using a variety of fun stuff, like ribbons, lace and soft batting. Would you be interested in receiving a set in the colors of your choosing? Not for me And a quick question here--I'm going to this amazing looking event on Saturday--does my witchee see anything they might be interested in? https://www.facebook.com/events/903999316607440/ (the Oddities Market) This looks fascinating but no idea what I would want - maybe something strange rom the quack medicine type of stall? 10/8/19 How do you feel about enamel pins? Love them, hate them, slightly interested, totally indifferent? Interested if its cool 0/10/19 what is your T-shirt/shirt of choice Size? Usually XXL, prefer v necks 10/11/2019 OCTOBER LUNACY! I know turn around time is unlikely, but just saying (JUST SAYING), dear Witchee, did anything catch your eye? Songs of Autumn 1, Chlorophyll, Fall, Leaves, Fall or Hypnotize Me https://archaichoney.com/bloodmoonbotanica (Britton used to run Haus of Gloi.) Witchee, are you interested in any kinds of things from the Blood Moon Botanica update? No thank you, I'm on too many meds that might react also I took some beading classes and have been making bracelets, necklaces, and earrings. Would you be interested in any? If so, how big is your wrist or how long would you like your bracelet? Any preferred styles of beads? I like seed bead bracelets but I'm a klutz and would likely destroy it by catching it on something, so usually only go for sturdier things 10/13/19 If I was to donate to an animal rescue on your behalf as the "lucyboo" component of this swap, is there one in particular that you would choose? It would probably be a cat rescue 10/14/19 What is your very favorite Halloween candy? If you don't have one/don't do candy, what's a seasonal treat you love? I like Reese's Pieces and fudge and jelly belly beans

The Spring Awakening zip bags, the Cat Dragon print, the Leave Me Alone print above all others, the Marginalia crew (2XL) Look at The Green Salmon's webpage The Green Salmon - do you fancy any of the teas, coffees etc? It's a favorite place for me to stop on the coast, and I'll take any excuse to drive to the ocean. The Na Na Na Na Bat Blend! or Campfire Blend in whole beans. I would have liked to try the hemp infused coffee but I think customs will have a fit

I would be happy to write something for you, and/or read/comment upon/gush over thing(s) you've written, if that's something you'd enjoy... Not my sort of thing Would you appreciate rare TAL decant(s) in 1 mL amber roll-on bottle(s)? Yes if it was appropriate How do you feel about enamel pins? If positively, which fandoms or topics would you like? I like them but I never wear them 9/2 I make lightweight hairfalls, the kind that can be attached to a pony tail or to pig tails. They are good for those of us that are more tender-headed. I use a variety of materials like shibori ribbon, and puffy yarns and pieces of lace and silk. You can use them for every day or as part of your Weenie costume. Is this of interest to you? If so tell me what length, what color(s) and if you want one for a pony tail or two for pig tails. No thank you
During my recent travels I got to experience the incredible delight of Serge Luten perfumers here in Paris (imagine if the Lab and Anna Sui made babies inside a Cadbury Cream Egg decorated with stained glass windows and...you've come close to the experience of being in that shop). Anyway, after spending gobs of monies, they loaded me up with delectable samples of their insanely expensive wares- do you want some??? I would love to try

Some of my favorites are from this company. https://www.poesieperfume.com/loose-leaf-tea - no thank you 9/6 Would you like anything from Trader Joe's? (Pumpkin products are, sadly, not in stores yet, but they will be during this round!) Do you have any Halloween traditions? No What about Halloween-related fandoms? (ie. The Nightmare Before Christmas) Does Sandman count? non-U.S folks!!! We always end up asking what we'd like from your exotic-to-us locales, but do you have any wishes for things from the States? I do love Goldfish crackers I make things from thrifted sweaters that I cut up & make things from. Do you like armwarmers? yes Long or short? wider and medium - I like long but I'm short! Solid color ( elegant) or funky stripes made from multiple sweaters? Stripes Fave colors? Jewel brights, black & grey Is cashmere okay? Yes Wool & related blends?

Whimsical? Witchy, bats, mushrooms, moths? Moths, bats How gothy do you like? Not completely over the top but I do like it have velvets & sparkly stuff to work with too. What is your preference witchee? I like velvets, not so much on the sparkly as it always seems to shed 9/7 How do you feel about cherry things? Check out Cherry Republic and let me know if anything catches your eye! Most things I like won't travel well or are too heavy (CHerriyaki Sauce!), but cherry shortbread and Michigan Minnows look good Similarly, are you into fancy flavors of olive oil or vinegar? Check out Fustini's and let me know if anything appeals! Herbs de Provence or Persian Lime oils, and the Bourbon Maple Syrup We also have an awesome store for jams and sauce, American Spoon which you should totally check out!
