Krampusnacht 2024 Master Question List

Would you like something embroidered my elf? If so, what type of design or theme? Also a standard hoop frame, on a tea towel or napkins (if so what color)  or something else? Would you, dearest elf, be interested in some handmade hair falls? The kind I make are 1. extremely lightweight 2. made from up cycled and ethically sourced natural materials like silk and antique lace 3. completely customized just for you- so give me around three colors, preferred length and whether you'd like one big one (ponytail style) or two (space buns / pigtails style)                     Would you be interested in homemade cocktail bitters? They do have alcohol, but can be used in seltzer or club soda in addition to adding that little somethin' somethin' to your favorite cocktail. I have already made rose, cinnamon bourbon, orange saffron, and ginger vanilla which I am happy to share or could also make something more bespoke in the next few weeks.  Note- these are made with vodka, unless otherwise specified.   Would you be interested in infusing kits for your alcohol of choice? Could be for different liquors or wine, depending on your preferences.  Is there anything that you would like to stock your liquor cabinet? Soooo I love the tea towels from Spoonflower AND they have a ton of Krampus type graphics.   Would you be interested in a tea towel from there?   (Bonus if you go look and give some links to your fav Krampus fabric.)  Or I can order a fat quarter and make a bowl holder for you (works for hot OR cold, on the table, in your hands, microwavable) if you're interested.   I use them a lot for hot bowls. Would you be interested in an Advent Calendar? Anything from Haus of Gloi's site that you want? https://www.hausofgloi.com/blogs/haus-herald/yule-2024-info  (yule collection part 1 should be up on Sunday.) Anything from Paintbox Soapworks? How about Moonalisa?  Do you want any goodies for your pets?   (catnip, dog cookies, etc) For NAUGHTY things, what do you think about ... ummm... kinky toys or adult toys? November 4 Would you be interested in a small yule wreath if so what colors and theme would you fancy? A Krampus or Yule one would fun! Red, green, black if Krampus...   Anything from sock dreams peak your interest   November 9   Anything you might like from my favorite little tea shop? https://www.fridaytea.com/   Would you like shower steamers? If so any particular EOs you might like?   Would you like a simmer pot mix and if so would you like it for any intent?   Jam! I made strawberry cranberry jam with coconut sugar. Would you like some?

Krampusnacht swap

Would you like something embroidered my elf? I would love an embroidered tea towel or ornament with pinecones and/or pine boughs or other winter themes (rather than xmas) or Krampus.   Would you, dearest elf, be interested in some handmade hair falls? The kind I make are 1. extremely lightweight 2. made from up cycled and ethically sourced natural materials like silk and antique lace 3. completely customized just for you- so give me around three colors, preferred length and whether you'd like one big one (ponytail style) or two (space buns / pigtails style)  These sound so lovely, I wish I had the hair for it.  But no thank  you for now.   Would you be interested in homemade cocktail bitters? They do have alcohol, but can be used in seltzer or club soda in addition to adding that little somethin' somethin' to your favorite cocktail. I have already made rose, cinnamon bourbon, orange saffron, and ginger vanilla which I am happy to share or could also make something more bespoke in the next few weeks.  Note- these are made with vodka, unless otherwise specified.  the orange saffron sounds yummy or an orange spice. It would need to be potato and wheat free vodka (rice or grape is fine),   Would you be interested in infusing kits for your alcohol of choice? Could be for different liquors or wine, depending on your preferences.  No thank you, we already have one.  Is there anything that you would like to stock your liquor cabinet? Not really, I got out of drinking with all my allergy issues, and I just have small bits. If you wanted to send me some safe vodka I wouldn’t say no though.  Soooo I love the tea towels from Spoonflower AND they have a ton of Krampus type graphics.   Would you be interested in a tea towel from there?   (Bonus if you go look and give some links to your fav Krampus fabric.)  I kinda always need tea towels. We dirty them up pretty quick and the non-decorative ones get used all around the house. Having ones for the kitchen only, would be really nice.  Or I can order a fat quarter and make a bowl holder for you (works for hot OR cold, on the table, in your hands, microwavable) if you're interested.   I use them a lot for hot bowls. I think we have 3 now, and they are awesome. Adding a Krampus to the coffins, chickens and bunny ones could be fun.  Would you be interested in an Advent Calendar?   Sure, especially if it’s like a tea one or something fun like that.    ! Denotes an increased enthusiasm level for a particular scent  Anything from Haus of Gloi's site that you want? https://www.hausofgloi.com/blogs/haus-herald/yule-2024-info  (yule collection part 1 should be up on Sunday.)   Perfume Oil, hair oil, pumpkin butter, bubbling scrubs, whipped soap: Hearth, His Sweater!, Nefarious Gingerbread Sweater, Plotter’s Breakfast (also as a bar soap), Tannenbaum!,   Hair oil preferably or perfume oil, Snow Flower Butterbombs: Amber and Pine or Fresh Snow  Anything from Paintbox Soapworks? hair oil , bath streusel, hot process soap or shower scrub: Figlet, In Dulci Jubilo!, Rensdyr, Roses in the Snow!! How about Moonalisa? I haven't tried their stuff before, but here is what looks interesting to me: Avacado butter cream, coconut oil soap, pumpkin seed butter, scrubby scrub, room spray, or argan oil hair rescue. shivering pines!!, spectral moon, whispering winds!, Dolci Jublio, Fir and Spice!, Fir All Up In Yer Face, Hygge, oooooh Krampus Night!!!!, Kris Kringle!, Shire, Solstice Night Stroll, Sweet Smoke and Wood, Toasted Pinecone and Maplewood Sugar, Winter Solstice!, Winter Hearth!!, Woodland Temple, or Yule Woods. Do you want any goodies for your pets?   (catnip, dog cookies, etc)  limited ingredient or homemade (wheat and corn free) cat treats are always welcomed by our ladies.   For NAUGHTY things, what do you think about ... ummm... kinky toys or adult toys? I might be into something like soft rabbit skin gloves for sensory play. Would you be interested in a small yule wreath if so what colors and theme would you fancy? A Krampus or Yule one would fun! Red, green, black if Krampus... I would love a wreath! Black and red would be pretty awesome or blue with white, silver, or gold for Yule. Green and gold would also be ok, but no green and red please.   Anything from sock dreams peak your interest? I have a wishlist! Which I've even recently updated.   Anything you might like from my favorite little tea shop? https://www.fridaytea.com/ I have a wishlist!

13 Nights 2024

Anything in Paintbox Soap Works Halloween release that you'd like?
I like her hair and perfume oil, Bath strusel, hot process soap, sugar scrub,  
Demeter forsaken, Jack of the Woods (not the hair oil), Let me in Your Window, Nightwalker,  
Putney Road, Libby and Lavender soap.  
Anything hand knit or embroidered you might like?
I would adore knit or crocheted wrist warmers, and an embroidered witchy kitty would rock.
I make shower steamers, salves, candles, soaps and other such. Are you interested in any  
such homemade goodies?
I love all kinds of handmade goodies!
Would you like a small watercolor painting? I’m taking 3×5”. If so, would you like it  
based on your preferred Halloween motifs or something else?  
Something like a witchy cat or cute ghost could be fun or a still life with a pumpkin and  
black flowers could be really cool too. I'm also a sucker for ravens .
I make light-weight hair falls ( I can do single or double, if you have a preference for  
pony tail or pig tails)- I make them out of things like soft yarns, up-cycled silk and bits  
of lace. Is this something you'd like? If so, tell me up to three colors and a length in  
inches you'd like.
I wish I'd known you in my long hair days because I loved hair falls. The mohawk goes un-adorned however.  
Anything from the Haus of Gloi Fall update?
Apple milk, cozy pumpkin, Persephone’s descent, Samhain, violet moon, Kitchen Witch,  hex
Pumpkin butter, hair oil, perfume oil, soap, scrubbing bubbles, refresher spray,

rose amber incense!, 31 Bats Morticia, Resurgence- Masquerade Anubis, NEFER, AMAR,  
WASIM, 31 Bats Count Diablo    9/8/2024

Milk, Dark, and or white Chocolate?

 dairy free Dark please, I prefer 70-85%.

Would you like a gently-used tarot or Lenormand deck?

 It would depend on the theme. I have several decks but I could make room for the right one.

I'm going to Disney World all next week!!! Can I get you something? (Maybe you have a favorite Disney / Star Wars / etc character or fandom? Maybe you're a Pin Trader? Maybe you like cute kitchen-wares / tea pots / nice English tea / pot holders tea towels?)

I love English teas, especially a good Earl Grey. I'm totally happy with a Darjeerling, Assam or Ceylon too. I also wouldn't mind tea towels or cute things that are also useful. I'm not a huge Disney fan, but I think Belle is my favorite princess.

This is has been alluded to in other questions, but feelings about candles/wax tarts/incense and scent profiles?

 I looove candles and there are a bunch on my Etsy wishlist. My scent preferences on candles are really similar to perfumes. Woods, smoke, incense,  resins,  florals, vegetal, leather, and such. No vanilla.

are you interested in skincare, such as trying travel sizes of various types? (would be cruelty-free, cleaner options coming from over here, if that matters to you!)
  I have a pretty stringent skincare routine that I'm happy with, so no thank you.

9/9/2024
Let's talk earrings.  Pierced?  Stud, dangly, hoop?  Any ear wire preferences?  Large or small?  Other preferences?

 I wear 2g silicone tunnels. I have a couple of colors but I wouldn't mind more. I can also put hoops or ear wires through my tunnels. I don't typically wear jewelry think.

If there is something extravagant on your wish list, would you like one large gift and the rest of your gifts quite modest, or would you rather forego the lavish item in favor of more of a mix among your other gifts?   Hmmm... I think I lean slightly towards being spoiled and getting a big thing with smaller other things.

The Trader Joe's Fearless Flyer is out with all of their autumn offerings. Is there anything you would like?   Maple spiced nuts and the organic maple butter    9/11/2024

I have in my possession a selection of real Bakelite bangle bracelets! Definitely from the 1940s-1960s era. Would this be an exciting gist for you to receive?
  I love how they look and they would have gone perfect in my former work wardrobe. These days I would only wear them on special occasions.
Would you like anything from sock dreams?
I used to have a wishlist there, but now they've gone to shopify.   If I can't figure out how to link my wishlist, I will add more items here.   For now,  a quick standout are the new disability pride roll top crew socks. I'm a size M/L. I would also love a pair of the NZ bed socks in navy or emerald. I used to have a pair that lasted many years before getting too many holes. The wool fingerless gloves look cozy,  I like the cinder color.
9/13/2024

Would you be interested in a spooky mini waffle maker or spooky playing cards?   No thank you. I could use a full size waffle maker though and I wouldn't mind if they were pumpkin shaped or such.

Does anything from SnagTights strike your fancy?   I have wanted a pair of their chub rub shorts for a long time.I really like the Nightwalker (bats) design I'm a size F. I also like the lunar Capri tights,  the ACOTAR bow before none tights, and the Hecate tights.

What about from Michaels or JoAnnes?   I will look through their seasonal offerings and update this response.

do you like Ren fairest?  Might there be a fun little thing I should find for you there?   I used to go every summer, but now it's really difficult for me. I am sure there are things I would love. Incense, jars, empty journals,  and other such.

9/14/2024

Weather permitting I'll be going to a witchy Florida themed night market next week! Is there anything you may want from it?   Sure! I have no idea what they'll have but I'm certain there are things I might love. Like Florida official Florida water? Incense,  smudging things, candles, items for my altar and so on.    9/17/2024

Do you desire any Samhain ritual-type items, if so, what?     More raven themed items for my Morrigan alter, Morrigan themed items,  bones, 

Tell me, my ghoul-friend, would you love to see things from these places (and what?) as you unwrap your gifts? I will be going to the Pacific coast soon, and there are witchy stores (one with serious occult supplies, many handmade including inks, quills, books, etc), a HUGE gem & mineral store, a huge yarn shop, shells and way too much sasquatch stuff, also an amazingly diverse mercantile in Yachats, OR, and the Green Salmon, where unique PNW teas, coffees are sold.   I always love unique teas! I am a recovering yarn hoar and not buying myself yarn,  but if it was gifted... I love rocks and gems, garnet are my favorite, but moonstones , labradorite, onyx, obsidian, jasper, amethyst.. ah yeah.. just anything is great. Lol! I would love a proper quill and ink to play with, I'm a sucker for for journals, runes, books on plants, herbarium, green Witchcraft, hedge witchery, cottage witchery or kitchen Witchcraft are welcome. Check out my Amazon list for ideas.
