Would you like any of the following? (Maybe just remove the things you aren't interested in?):
I literally would love all of your homemade items and herbs and stuff. Sadly I can't do alcohol right now because of my medication.
Would you like me to knit you a hat, shawlette, cowl, or fingerless mitts?
I do always love me some fingerless mitts or shawlettes. I have a "make for me" section on Ravelry! And another make for me area for the Vampire Swamp I used to join every year. A lot of the items I'd want someone to make me are crochet amigurumi or colorwork, because I don't crochet and also I rarely do colorwork for myself.
How about a soap bag (knitted), washcloths, or tarot card bag?
I'm good because I make these things myself! Maybe nice washcloths. Or dishcloths made with that "scrubby" red heart stuff.
Or maybe a gknitted Gnome? Or bat? Ghost? Black Cat? Voodoo doll? Monster? Or something else spooky?
See the answer above with the make for me links!
If you want any knitted things -- color preferences?
I love black and purple, black and white, black and grey, black and blue... blurples of all sorts. Jewel tone colors - no navy or pastels or neons.
My mom has an etsy shop with project bags for knitting/crochet or what ever you want to use them for. We could also make tote type bags, flat zipper cosmetic type bags, or boxy bags/dice bags. Are you interested in this type of item? I have all kinds of spooky fabric that isn't currently up on the shop if you look through the sold items. https://twinklentwilight.etsy.com
I always love more bags because I am kind of a bag whore. I most of mine are full, hahaha. There are some with Pit Bull fabric on them that I would adore, I think on my etsy wish list (looked afterwards, all sold out. wah wah.) Or heck, just find me super awesome pit bull fabric and I can make my own bag.

LUSH's Halloween collection drops 8/31. I will be making an order. Can I pick up something for you?
Hm, I need more Dream Cream (self preserving) but that is kind of expensive for the huge container (which I absolutely use all of!) I love most of their items as long as you double check that they don't have SLS/sulfates, parabens, etc. (some of their items do!!) I love the scent of Lord of Misrule, Rose Jam, Twilight/Sleepy, Candy Fluff/Snow Fairy, Snowcake, Butterball, Silky Underwear, etc. . Black Rose bomb (ingredients look ok, and I love Rose and Black, so perfect!) I don't do their solid perfumes but the trial size of Lord of Misrule perfume would be welcome! Any safe bath bombs, shampoo bars, etc. are welcome. I kind of want the Unicorn lip scrubby (if they still have it) but otherwise I don't especially love the lip scrubbies in general. I would absolutely love to try the Soother toothpaste jelly. (mmm Clove!) I've never tried the Aroma & Bath Melts. I love Silky Underwear dusting powder. Would love to try Let the Good Times Roll cleanser (sample?) Most of their cleansers, shower gel, shower jellys, bubble bars, etc. have SLS sadly, but that one doesn't. Would try Charity Pot (sample?) Would love a really good moisturizer for super dry skin (sample?)
Ok, I have seen the Halloween update!! I would take the Bat art bath bomb (even though it has sulfates, I can live this once) and I would LOVE Lord of Misrule soap and/or Demon in the Dark soap! (I used to get Demon in the Dark back in the day before it was discontinued.)
Which Surprise Items that will be at Dragoncon might you be interested in?
Ooooh. I am interested in ALL of the Convention Survival Oils. And when All Hallows rolls around, I absolutely want to try Ghost Milk and Vampire Milk! Invisible Man Milk sounds interesting too except maybe not if the musk is too sheer, so decant for sure. A Timid Twinkling Golden Star and The Witches Have a Fire Again also both sound interesting! (Except Oak / Oakmoss goes wonky on me, so maybe just a decant for Witches.)
EDIT: I purchased all of the convention survival oils when they went up online.
Would you be interested in dangle earrings or pendants made of dried roses (and other beads)?
My ears are not currently pierced and and I haven't been able to wear necklaces with any kind of chain (for the necklace) or metal clasp (for non metal necklaces) but I would absolutely hang something in my car or on the wall. I love roses, especially if super fragrant.
How do you feel about stuffies that are sewn? Form or fabric preference?
I do have a lot of bat stuffies on my etsy wishlist but I don't really NEED any. Plus if I keep any stuffies anywhere that the dogs can reach them, the stuffies will become dog prey and will be eviscerated and destroyed.
Teeturtle, anything look fun?
Always! Teeturtle is my fav. I wear the women's 2xl. They're out of my size on a lot of shirts I want, but here are some options (in no particular order.)

Haus of Gloi's first fall collection has dropped - anything you like?
I would take Ghost Puffs in any of the scrubs/whipped soap and maybe a small body emulsion? Would take candles in any of these: Blueberry Tart, Lemon Marshmallow, Marshmallow Rose, Apple Milk, Blood Orange Marshmallow, Cozy Pumpkin, Ghost Puffs, Olde Cider Haus, Pumpkin Eater, Pumpkin Queen, Red Roan. (Candles would be for my mom.) Refresher sprays welcomed in Blood Orange Marshmallow or Ghost Puffs (or Lemon Marshmallow from summer area but there is only 1 left!) I would take butterbombs but I don't see any!
8/29/23
What about Paintbox Soapworks Fall scents?
Let me in at your window - sorbetto (sample size is great.) I'm really kind of overloaded with sugar scrubs right now but that one sounds good. Plus Wuthering Heights / Kate Bush reference ftw.
How do you feel about CBD as an ingredient in something? Like a pain relief lotion or lip balm?
I absolutely use CBD as an ingredient in lotions and lip balms although I'm not supposed to have any right now because of the medication I'm on.
I'm getting into bookbinding! Is there a fanfic/book (I can try to get the text block in paperback and rebind it)/out-of-copyright book that you want hardbound all fancy?
Hm, I had some on my etsy wish list at one point but my mind is a blank right now.
8/30/23
Cellar Door's seasonal items are out. Anything you need?
I would LOVE candles in Once Bitten and/or Sex Machine.
Are you interested in anything from Grounds and Hounds? They give back to rescue dogs and they have more items than just coffee. Hot chocolate, apparel, stickers, mugs, dog toys and blankets, caramels, brewers, etc.
OMG so many things. I love the Must Love Pibbles throws but they're spendy.
Must Love Pibbles or Celebrate Pibbles tumblers. (I pretty much only use tumblers these days because lids. and they're 20oz!!!)
Coffee (whole bean or pods)
The Beast
The Dog Sleeps in my Bed
Two Tails
Good Boy
Chocolate Peanut Butter (pods)

are there any particularly spooky reads you are interested in? Favorite horror author's with books you haven't read/don't own yet? Comic books included?
Nah, I'm not especially into horror. I'm an epic fantasy / sci fi reader.
I'm going to the MD ren faire this weekend - anything you like from faires? It's a large one with very strictly juried vending so think higher quality goods ‐ teas, soaps, scents, arts, prints, etc.
I love ren faire stuff. Any quality tea is lovely!
Favorite medieval or renaissance or fantasy creatures or imagery or legends?
Unicorn, Hippocampus, most equines and dogs.
Hey Swapee, you said you like gummy candy. Have you ever had the real deal Middle Eastern candy that " invented" gummy candy? Made with real fruits & nuts & sooooo good. I have a fabulous Middle Eastern grocery near where I work that has more than 20 flavors.
Would you like a box? I love turkish delight. I love different fruit ones too, but I hate walnuts and it seems like those are in a lot. I'm ok with almonds or pecans.
If so, what kinds of fruits or berries do you like? Most of them? Plum, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry, huckleberry, peach, mango, apple, pear, pineapple, etc. etc.
8/27/23
Would you like any of the following? (Maybe just remove the things you aren't interested in?):
Catnip (organic, from our property. Dried in our dehydrator.)
Canned food items
Thick Huckleberry Syrup (or thin huckleberry jam -- it was kind of a fail for how thick/thin it is, but still tasty. Has sugar.)
Bluebarb jam (blueberry/rhubarb) (has sugar.)
Blackberry, Raspberry, or Strawberry Jam (they have sugar)
Possibly peach or plum jam or butter (we can probably make it without ingredients you can't have - if allergies)
Apple Crips (dried apples with nothing added, not sure what kind of apples we'll do this year. Usually honeycrisp.)
Mugwort smudge wand (some with lavender) (all organic, from our property.)
Dried lavender I can do sachets or just some in a mesh baggie. Sadly our lavender is too dry right now to do wands.
Rose petal beads (if I manage to make enough, I'm gathering rose petals right now.) I'll probably put them on a string unless I have time/energy for more.
Thunder Butter? (like icy hot but made with herbs, beeswax, menthol, wintergreen, cayenne. Spot test so it doesn't burn your skin.)
Rose Petal liqueur sample (has sugar.)
Lavender Vanilla Bean liqueur sample (has sugar.)
Mead sample (flavor depends on what kind of mead my son has made lately. Can make it dry, semi-sweet, or sweet to your preference.)
Would you like me to knit you a hat, shawlette, cowl, or fingerless mitts? I can do colorwork hats or cowls with skulls, bats, pumpkins, ghosts...
Yarn preference? (merino wool, merino cashmere, merino silk, merino silk cashmere, acrylic, sparkles or no sparkles, etc.
How about a soap bag (knitted), washcloths, or tarot card bag? (washcloths will be cotton. soap bags will probably be either cotton or non-superwash wool so they shrink around the soap. Tarot will be silk - I have limited colors in silk.)
I can do the BPAL Brimstone logo, bats, skulls, cats, jack o lanterns, whatever on washcloths.
Or maybe a gknitted Gnome? Or bat? Ghost? Black Cat? Voodoo doll? Monster? Or something else spooky? I have lots of patterns. Here is an example I did for the Gnome swap.
If you want any knitted things -- color preferences? I can do stripy mitts, cowls, or hats. Solid or gradient color shawlettes, cowls, mitts, hats. Colorwork hats or cowls (base color plus whatever color for your skull, ghost, bat, jack o lantern, spider, witch hat, moon, cat, or whatnot.) Solid one color for soap bag, washcloths, or tarot bag. (I think I only have purple silk for the tarot bag.) Pick three or four colors for Gnomes (one of those colors will be their beard, I usually use white.)
My mom has an etsy shop with project bags for knitting/crochet or what ever you want to use them for. We could also make tote type bags, flat zipper cosmetic type bags, or boxy bags/dice bags. Are you interested in this type of item? I have all kinds of spooky fabric that isn't currently up on the shop if you look through the sold items. https://twinklentwilight.etsy.com

Since it is Pumpkin Spice Season (during this swap), what is your Pumpkin Spice oppinion? Or just pumpkin? Or apple anything?

Paintbox Soapworks Yule is coming out! Are you interested in any (especially their not-Krampus-but-Sinister) of their offerings?
Interested in any of the Haus of Gloi Yule (or other things on their website?)
Would you be interested in any tea from August or Brutaliteas (the latter even has a Krampus-inspired tea)? Or, is there any tea from another purveyor you are lusting after?
Is there any international snack you would love to get your hands on? (I can check and see if the International Marketplace in my city has it!)
Victim, how would you like an adorable Krampus t-shirt? I found two cute ones (one a pastel Krampus Cat and one is a more direct, olde timey Krampus), in both ladies and gent sizing. If you're interested let me know what size you'd like ASAP so I can order one for you!
are you interested in homemade brown sugar shortbread? I can do plain, or different flavor combinations incorporating chocolate, orange, cherry, lavender, rose, peppermint. Last year I made some lavender peppermint that was super yum.
What are your feelings about fruitcake? This is full of fruit, booze and nuts and marzipan if I can find it. It's not your grocery store fruitcake.
How about infused moonshine whiskey?
How do you feel about graphic novels and manga? Any favorites?
Victim, would you be interested in a knitted or crocheted Krampus thing?
Would you like a handmade wreath? I have made two in the past and really enjoyed the process, If so can you please let me know what your color preferences are. Do you tend to like sparse wreathes or packed ones? How would you feel about a Krampus wreath or would you prefer a general seasonal one?
teeturtle is having one of their megasales - anything look fun to you? (they have way more than just t-shirts) https://www.teeturtle.com/
Paintbox Soapworks Yule is coming out! Are you interested in any (especially their not-Krampus-but-Sinister) of their offerings?
I love the Bath Streusel and Sorbetto! Also wax melts!
Would love to try Joulupukki wax melts! Would definitely take Roses in the Snow (I had some of the OG), Sugar on Snow, and/or Schwarzwald (prefer sorbetto or wax melts for the last three. Sample size is great!) Maybe Orange and Yellow or Black Twig? Honestly, all of her stuff smells fantastic. When I do big orders she pops in samples of things I didn't order and then I'm all, wow this is great too.
Of the older offerings, I'm a fan of Right Red Hand (sorbetto, wax melts) and The Queen is Dead (wax melts) and would love to try Fantasticake (sorbetto, bath streusel, or wax melts), Let me in at your Window (bath streusel, sorbetto or wax melts), GTFO (sorbetto or wax melts), Deacon (sorbetto), Karen Rose Signature (sorbetto), Rice Pudding (sorbetto), The Sword & The Eastern Sky (wax melts), 221B (wax melts), The Wooden God (wax melts), Waking the Witch (wax melts), Pussy Hat (sorbetto) ...
(You'd think Moonshadow would be my favorite but some reason I didn't like this one. First time for everything I guess.)
Interested in any of the Haus of Gloi Yule (or other things on their website?)
I would love Nefarious Gingerbread Man in the sugar exfoliant or bubbling scrub! Body powder would be fun in Long Winter's Nap or Turkish Delight! Would always take candles or melts in Turkish Delight or Nefarious Gingerbread Man as well. Actually Tannenbaum also sounds like a great candle scent.
Would you be interested in any tea from August or Brutaliteas (the latter even has a Krampus-inspired tea)? Or, is there any tea from another purveyor you are lusting after?
August:
OMG there is a new tea -- Wild Heart Smoky Lavender Oolong tea! I'm not especially an oolong fan, but I would try this because hello lapsang souchong!
And even though I'm not a fan of malt, I kind of want to try the chocolate cherry tea (Cabaret.)
Last time I got samples of Avalon, Mojave, Breakfast, Dolomite, Civil Disobedience (because they were out of the 15 cup bags, sniff) and 15 cup bags of Metropolitan, Gold Rush, and Outlaw. I would take more Civil Disobedience if that comes back in stock and I still need to test the samples. Their Dots & Loops was actually amazing so now I am into trying apple teas (Dots and Loops was apple and anise/fennel, I love anise / fennel in my tea!) so I am curious about the Beltane (Apple Blossom Oolong) although it uses words like "mild" and "crisp" and "earthy" so ... they lost me there, but then they say "buttery baked apple" and I'm conflicted, haha.
Brutaliteas:
would totally try:
* Butterbotch (I love butterscotch tea!!!)
* Back in Blackberry
* Cakes on a Plane
* Chaiday the 13th
* Cherrie
* Cherrifier
* Decomprose
* Hot for Peacher
* The Silence of the Jams
* Waking the Lavender
* War Figs
* Cotton Candyman
* Malloween
* Violet Cremes
* Honeydew Hast
* Neetlejuice
* Jams
(No Rooibos/Honeybush, Mate/Yerba Mate, Pu Erh, Walnut, Coffee, Chili, chamomile, etc. That leaves the Krampus inspired tea out as it has Pu Erh in it. Shudder.)
Coalition tea makes a great Krampus blend though! https://www.coalitiontea.com/products/krampus-loose-leaf-holiday-blend-3-oz?variant=42703402467479 or if you want free shipping with $35, they have an etsy store too. https://www.etsy.com/listing/1032537068/certified-elephant-friendly-krampus?ref=cart&variation0=3062772331
Is there any international snack you would love to get your hands on? (I can check and see if the International Marketplace in my city has it!)
I love things like clotted cream, sticky toffee pudding, japanese kit kats, ... um... brain fog.. I love all kinds of fud.
Victim, how would you like an adorable Krampus t-shirt? I found two cute ones (one a pastel Krampus Cat and one is a more direct, olde timey Krampus), in both ladies and gent sizing. If you're interested let me know what size you'd like ASAP so I can order one for you!
I don't do Pastel but I do have Krampus shirts on my etsy wishlist. I wear an 18/20 in women's, so usually at least a 2xl womens.
are you interested in homemade brown sugar shortbread? I can do plain, or different flavor combinations incorporating chocolate, orange, cherry, lavender, rose, peppermint. Last year I made some lavender peppermint that was super yum.
I love shortbread (especially chocolate -- like the chocolate walker's shortbread is the BEST.) But I'd be up for rose or lavender. or ORANGE CHOCOLATE. I don't really like mint in anything except my mint tea with licorice.
What are your feelings about fruitcake? This is full of fruit, booze and nuts and marzipan if I can find it. It's not your grocery store fruitcake.
I have only had one fruitcake I love - a cherry almond marzipan fruitcake with amaretto. (You can make your own marzipan or get it at world market.) It has dried pears in it too but you can't really taste them.
How about infused moonshine whiskey?
Only if it's smooth and delicious. *wink*
How do you feel about graphic novels and manga? Any favorites?
I used to like them (especially things like Sandman, Watchmen, V, Lucifer, etc.) but I can't really read them anymore because my eyes suck. I have to read things electronically where I can adjust the size of the font and that's no fun with graphic novels or comics.
Victim, would you be interested in a knitted or crocheted Krampus thing?
I NEED the crocheted Krampus hat with the horns. I have the pattern already but I don't crochet.
Would you like a handmade wreath? I have made two in the past and really enjoyed the process, If so can you please let me know what your color preferences are. Do you tend to like sparse wreathes or packed ones? How would you feel about a Krampus wreath or would you prefer a general seasonal one?
I would absolutely hang one on the door or somewhere in the house! Krampus wreath!!!! I mean, I love Black, Silver, and Purple but those don't seem very Krampus-y so maybe Black, Red, Green, Silver? I don't know! Anything except brown / yellow / orange / tan / cream is probably great! Ummm not totally sparse so maybe more packed?
teeturtle is having one of their megasales - anything look fun to you? (they have way more than just t-shirts) https://www.teeturtle.com/
Always!! I usually do the women's in a 2xl but the last one I got is kind of large on me (I've lost weight, huzzah) so maybe I could try an XL? However be aware that teeturtle sometimes has REALLY slow shipping and may not ship in time for you to send by the deadline. I have designs on my amazon wishlist that I would love (put them there before the universal wishlist thingy went away.)
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/39Q05UJVXC9BW?ref_=wl_share I have lots from teepublic and teefury too.
Here's some new ones that aren't on my list:
And look! teeturtle has a Krampus shirt!! https://www.teeturtle.com/products/have-yourself-a-scary-little-christmas-krampus?variant=19577791462777
and Cthulhumas!! https://www.teeturtle.com/products/merry-cthulhumas?variant=19577791490179
And I love the Jack Skellington with the snowflake (What's this?) https://www.teeturtle.com/products/whats-this?variant=19577791480093
I love all of the unicorn pins (holiday or not) and fox pins as well.
would you like hand knit items? Fingerless gloves, hats, small shawl or neck gaiter? If yes, please give measurements.
I always love fingerless mitts but I am very picky about using a super stretchy cast on and bind off because I have huuuuge hands. I don't wear cowls or traditional knitted hats. I do have a bundle on Ravelry called "make for me" if you need ideas... it has a lot of amigurumi because I'm not great at crocheting... also lots of colorwork and double knitting. ? Honestly, I'm too hot 99.99999999% of the time and I wear t-shirts / shorts / sandals (no socks) when it's 40 outside and am comfortable. So some of the costume-y hats on my list or amigurumi would probably get more use than mitts or a shawl right now since I make my own.
My head is: 23"
My wrist is: 8.25"
My palm above thumb is: 8.5"
Where I would start/stop a thumb gusset is: 3.25"
Let's say I'm going to make something with your favorite non-fantasy animal that comes in multiple colors of coat. Do you want the "classic" color or would you like one of their lesser depicted colors? Or a fantasy color like blue or purple?
If you're going to make me something with piggies (and they're ALWAYS commonly depicted as pink which I personally find annoying because those are usually hogs, not pigs) I would really prefer the color that my piggies are (Duckie - Gold, Snuffie - Amber with black spots. Lots of photos on my instagram.) If it's pibbles, I love "blue" (ie, steel grey.) White stripe up the nose optional. Friesians are always black, I like black but a purple or blue tone would be fun too. Ferrets I love the "dark eyed white" color. Ratties I love blue hooded. Bats, black and grey are great but whatever fantasy color (purple? dark red? blue?) is fine too. Did I miss any?

Would you rather your creation had utility, or was simply aesthetic?
Up to you, I'm good either way.
I have multiple ideas. Would you like to see one idea repeated across two or three... "things", or would you like two or three different ideas manifested? (Alternatively expressed as matching set vs. unrelated expressions.)
I'm good with both!
What are you hoping "I" will make "you"??
I don't even know myself! I don't wear jewelry anymore for a variety of reasons (allergic to metal except sterling silver and surgical steel, but can't wear metal necklaces at all because the chain irritates my neck no matter what it's made of .. can only wear silk ribbons or leather right now but don't.) My ears and body piercings are all healed up. I knit, so I don't really *need* knitted things. I have 10+ prints waiting for frames, but frames are kind of at the bottom of my expenditure lists. Things that I could in my window, or outside, or put in the garden? I'll treasure whatever anyone makes me, so make whatever you'd like. Just because I don't *need* things doesn't mean I won't LOVE them.
What are your feelings about bags? Do you like certain size? Would you be okay with a purely decorative small bag, or does that just sound bonkers?
Well, I do live with someone who has an etsy shop that sells project bags, so I have a LOT of bags of a project size. I'm not sure what I would do with a purely decorative small bag unless it contains something smelly to stuff in my sock drawer or the like. Or if it's appropriate to hang off a belt which dress up for a Renn Faire (in which case I would give it to my son.) Other than that, I don't really use bags other than grocery size bags and while I have a ton of those, sometimes I still buy more when Trader Joes comes out with a new cool design... but I will always take your bags.

Anything hand knit or embroidered you might like?
I make shower steamers, salves, candles, soaps and other such. Are you interested in any such homemade goodies?
9/7/2024
Would you like a small watercolor painting? I'm talking 3×5". If so, would you like it based on your preferred Halloween motifs or something else?
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.
Anything from the Haus of Gloi Fall update?
How about the Nocturne Alchemy Halloween update?

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

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

Also, I know we have barely scratched the surface in knowing what the Lab will release for Weenies, but a wishlist couldn't hurt, so what'll it be?
How do you feel about the pastel Halloween offerings that are out?
I'm one of those crafty sorts that make things. I make things by up cycling sweaters, for example - mittens, slippers, armwarmers (both solid or striped from multiple fabrics ). Could also make a tea cosy with a mat. I make bowls, mats & vessels from rope that I wrap with pretty cloth. So essentially, functional, useful fiberart. What might you like? Long striped armwarmers? A pair of slippers, decadently lined in cashmere?
do you have an amazon wishlist to be sure I don't duplicate a book?
Do you have a Halloween Tree? Do you need ornaments?
Do you have an Etsy wishlist?
As of this writing, Dragon Con Peach Pit scents have been revealed! Anything on your wishlist?
I am a bit known for my extremely light-weight hand crafted hair falls (I typically make them out of a combination of yarns, batting, and bits of up cycled silks and lace). Would you like one (for a pony tail effect) or two (for a pigtail effect)? If so, name two or three colors and any allergies to fibers I should know about.
Do you have use for witchy supplies? Herbs, oils, crystals, etc. If so, what types and for what purpose(s)?
Would you be interested in custom artwork, such as a painting? If so, what mood, theme, colors, style, etc. would you be excited to see? If there's a dream, a dnd character, a favorite fairy tale, deity, etc. you'd love it to capture, spill those deets - including anything you wouldn't want (nudity, size restrictions, whatnot).
Welp, the list of what will fully be available over the Dragon Con weekend (and a preview of Weenies!) is now available! I already asked the Peach Pit question, but now there's heaps more, so gimme your wishlist!!!

Jumping in as *I think* the only Australian, is there anything specifically Australian you might like? I think Tim Tams are probably the most commonly coveted/procured goodie I could offer.
I also have a local tea blender just down the street from me if there is anything from there you might like to try https://teahouse-the-tea-specialty-shop.myshopify.com/
I have a wonderful coffee roaster near me, wood-roasted, small batch, regular and decaf, all roast types. It's so good, I won't buy coffee anywhere else, and I only drink dark roast decaf. IF this sounds good, whats your coffee desire, and beans or grind size? They are also a FULLY geeked out space with every video and arcade game known. so I would also send a sticker from them, so also include your favorite old 70's-80's cartoons or fandoms.
I’m dying to knit my Witchee something lovely, as long as it would be appreciated. I can’t commit to a big project in the time frame, but socks, a hat, a cowl, arm warmers, or a shawlette for your neck and shoulders could definitely be doable if that would be enjoyed. Just let me know colour preferences, or fibre preferences/allergies.
I sew clothing and costume, if you could have any garment made just for you what would it be and what would it look like? You can include reference links/images or just describe it.
Do you enjoy stim toys or other fidgety items? I work near an amazing store called Madam Clutterbuckets Neurodiverse Universe that caters to neuroduvergents as well as employing entirely Neurodiverse staff and supporting lots of ND and disabled artists.

What is your size in say Tshirts? Pajamas?
Do you like Halloween socks? Any particular style or image/character?
I was fortunate enough to be gifted an entire collection of the Flower Letters-Lily Clara series. It's a story told through beautifully illustrated letters, pictures, diagrams, post cards etc. One snail mail letter at a time. This one is a story of a entreprenurial woman during the silver rush in the West and a bit of a mystery. The letters and details are gorgeous. I've finished reading it, would you like me to pass it along to you, witchee?
I make junk journals and paper crafts. I would probably have time to make a mini journal or a paper folio type thing. It would come decorated but with space to write and add your own touch or I could make a folio complete with address labels, stationery, stamps etc. to organize your writing goods. Would you like to receive one? My style is generally vintage but I could also do a Halloween one, winter holiday one, shabby chic or something of your suggestion.

Obvious question of whether you would like anything from the new Lunacy update (Black Butterfly Moon, etc.)? https://blackphoenixalchemylab.com/product-tag/september-2025-lunacy/
9/25/25
I love baking but due to my allergies, I only work with gluten and dairy free ingredients these days. While you may not have these issues, is there a baked good you would love receiving even if it is gluten and dairy free? I also only use honey, maple syrup or coconut sugar, but I'm happy to use monk fruit if you'd prefer/need.
I grow a wide variety of herbs, are there any you need for your pantry? I have mugwort (which I can prepare for tea/spice use, bath use or smudge), thyme, winter savory, sage, various mints, rosemary, fennel (leaf and seed), and I'm certain I am forgetting somethings so feel free to ask.
I do basic embroidery. Is there a simple design or motif you might like? Like bats, spiders, spooky flowers, pumpkins or other such? This will come either in a hoop frame or on a finished hoop (the back is gathered and covered with cardboard) unless you have other needs like an embroidered ribbon or handkerchief.
and another tea question, is there anything here you might like https://www.fridaytea.com/ ?
for coffee, whole bean or ground and any particular flavor notes you like? Any roasting preferences? Yes I live in coffee snob land and these are real questions.
9/26/25

So of course, new question since the Weenies just dropped - what has caught your nose from the full list?
Interested in anything from Cellar Door's Halloween update?
Candles or Soap: Black #1, Once Bitten, Spooky Season, Sanderson Spice, Lavender Pumpkin
Also/Or (not Halloween): Sex Machine, Hunter's Moon, Midnight Rider, Lavender Fields
Anything from Sock Dreams catch your eye? (https://sockdreams.com)
I have huge feet (12 US women) and plus size calves (ice skating + horseback riding) so most socks really aren't my thing. That being said, in the Plus Size section I like:
Moon Phases crew and Just a Phase crew
I live in France, and we have some great tea here! Most folks know about Mariage Freres but may I suggest Damman Freres? Here's the link- they're still in summer mode, but I assure you, autumnal teas will grace their pages soon! (https://www.dammann.fr/en/)
Now we're talking!!! I love loose leaf tea, mostly black but I do like a few tissanes (mostly ones with licorice root or perhaps hibiscus.) I love rose, lavender, anise/fennel/licorice, vanilla, butterscotch, peach, honey, jasmine...
I do not like coffee in my tea, nor do I like rooibos, honeybush, mate, or puer eh. Or chamomile.
If you could find me a tea that is black with apples and fennel, I would be so happy! There was one from August tea called Dots and Loops with that mix and it was soooo good. Now discontinued of course.
I still have some live Mariage Freres links on my amazon beverages list but all of the Damman links were dead.
From Damman what catches my eye so far:
Black flavored:
Pink (black tea & rose)
Bourbon (black tea, vanilla, caramel)
Nosy Bey (black tea, vanilla, peach)
Licorice!!! (black tea, licorice)
Caramel (black tea, caramel, chocolate)
Vineyard Peach (black tea, peach)
Violet (black tea, violet)
Spice Flakes (black tea, orange, gingerbread)
Christmas in Provence (black tea, honey, fig, strawberry)
Smokey Black: (just one smokey, lol)
Smokey Lapsang
Smokey Tarry
Smokey Crocodile
Fujisan Souchong
Sakura Souchong
Souchong Malt
Oolong:
Milk Oolong Original (oolong, cream)
Herbal:
Fennel Mint
Mint Licorice
Cocoa:
Cocoa Spices
Cocoa Orange
Do you see anything you need from Paintbox Soapworks Weenie Update?
Fairytale Bath Struesel, The Grey Hound wax melts.
From "Season of the Witch": Black Sun bath streusel
Speaking of updates, anything from Haus of Gloi's Fall offerings speak to you?
scents: Blood Orange Marshmallow, Ghost Puffs
mediums: fall soy wax tarts, candles, refresher spray, sugar exfoliants
Also, I know we have barely scratched the surface in knowing what the Lab will release for Weenies, but a wishlist couldn't hurt, so what'll it be?
Not weenies per se, but I would be interested in trying Snake Bouquet and Snake in the Grass. Maybe Pumpkin Funnel Cake depending on how cakey and delicious it is. For weenies, In Night when Colors all to Black are Cast! I'm quite curious about Black Eyeliner, Plastic Rats, Gummi Fangs, Vintage Kitty Blow Molds, Devil Flash...
How do you feel about the pastel Halloween offerings that are out?
I like black and jewel tones and dark colors. No pastels please.
I'm one of those crafty sorts that make things. I make things by up cycling sweaters, for example - mittens, slippers, armwarmers (both solid or striped from multiple fabrics ). Could also make a tea cosy with a mat. I make bowls, mats & vessels from rope that I wrap with pretty cloth. So essentially, functional, useful fiberart. What might you like? Long striped armwarmers? A pair of slippers, decadently lined in cashmere?
I would love things like the tea cosy with mat, bowls, vessels, etc. I am too warm 99.999999% of the time and wearables would be wasted on me.
do you have an amazon wishlist to be sure I don't duplicate a book?
Yes, it's in my signature in the circular swap help.
Do you have a Halloween Tree? Do you need ornaments?
Yes and yes and yes and yes and ... yes. I also need a little tree skirt for my tiny tree. One with black and white spiral stripes would be amazing. Maybe 2 feet in diameter?
Do you have an Etsy wishlist?
Yes, also linked in circular swap help.
As of this writing, Dragon Con Peach Pit scents have been revealed! Anything on your wishlist?
The Gamboge Dragon atmosphere spray sounds interesting as does the Cerise Dragon hair gloss. Maybe Bastard-Amber dragon perfume oil. I would be happy with decants.
I am a bit known for my extremely light-weight hand crafted hair falls (I typically make them out of a combination of yarns, batting, and bits of up cycled silks and lace). Would you like one (for a pony tail effect) or two (for a pigtail effect)? If so, name two or three colors and any allergies to fibers I should know about.
I never go anywhere and I have a mostly shaved head so probably not.
Do you have use for witchy supplies? Herbs, oils, crystals, etc. If so, what types and for what purpose(s)?
I love all kinds of witchy supplies but I don't have anything in mind right now.
Would you be interested in custom artwork, such as a painting? If so, what mood, theme, colors, style, etc. would you be excited to see? If there's a dream, a dnd character, a favorite fairy tale, deity, etc. you'd love it to capture, spill those deets - including anything you wouldn't want (nudity, size restrictions, whatnot).
Yassss! A painting or maybe a tattoo design?!? I now have four bats on my left arm along with with a moon. I would love more tattoos -- these ones are just flash from Friday the 13th specials. I'd love a huge bat on my back whose wings wrap around me (there is some armor in Diablo IV that is similar to what I'd like, lol), an ankh, celtic or nordic inspired horses, hippocampus (fairy tale creature), dogs (blue pit bulls especially), ravens, bats.... I'm partial to black and white monochrome, blues/purples/blacks/greys, gothic, celtic, nordic, etc.
I'm in Japan, anything specific you would want from here?
Delicious kit kats of course! I don't know what else is available though. And I do get the imported kit kats here at Hmart and World Market, so maybe if there exclusive flavors available only there? Anything Rabbit in the Moon (soy sauce dish, large mug, something useful.)
I just got back from Mongolia and brought a bunch of small souvenirs, how do you feel about small things from random countries?
It really depends .. I have so much clutter that I don't especially want knick knacks or things that sit on flat surfaces with no purpose.
I make custom ita rosettes/cases (pics here to explain what I mean https://tinyurl.com/mwtwmvfm. Is that something you might be interested in? If so, what type/colors/size/etc. etc.
I'm sorry, these are not my style. Gorgeous though!
Snorg tees (http://snorgtees.com) has some hilarious and awesome new shirts. They are also reasonably priced. Please give me 3 of your fav designs and tee size/color if available for a color option.
Pretty much any of the Monty Python, Princess Bride, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Lydia Deetz, Don't Blink (Doctor Who), Firefly, Don't Torture Yourself (that's my job), Nightmare before Coffee, Haters Gonna Hate Pit, Krampus ones, some of the Stranger Things, etc.
Women's Signature, always black or grey, probably a 3xl.
BloomChic (http://bloomchic.com) has some pretty fun plus and smaller size halloween fashions. If you so desire, give me your top 3 favs with sizes!
I'm an 18/20 from Lane Bryant, so maybe from here too? I like the skeletal rib invisible zipper romper (black) but maybe in a larger size - 3x? The color block bats button down shirt, probably in the 2x. Bat print stretchy textured zipper hoodie maybe in the 4x? I like over size zip up hoodies.
I like making little flower arrangements with fake flowers; would you be interested in a mini bouquet (think, something that would fit in a bud vase)? If so, any seasonal/color scheme requests?
No, it would just be a dust catcher for me.
Feelings on candles/wax melts?
I don't burn candles a lot because I'm too hot and they raise the temperature a bit. I do like both candles and wax melts though, mostly because I am a scent hoar.
Feelings on crocheted wall art/mandalas? Color scheme requests?
No thank you.
Jumping in as *I think* the only Australian, is there anything specifically Australian you might like? I think Tim Tams are probably the most commonly coveted/procured goodie I could offer.
I can get imported Tim Tams here, so I'm good on that. Maybe a special Australian Starbucks card? (doesn't need money on it.) Or a demitasse size Starbucks city / country cup? (full size is welcome too, but I don't use travel mugs much.) I think I saw some Rabbit in the Moon ones and was coveting those. (I love Rabbit in the Moon.)
I also have a local tea blender just down the street from me if there is anything from there you might like to try https://teahouse-the-tea-specialty-shop.myshopify.com/
Black tea: Copenhagen Blend, Rose Grey, Russian Caravan, Tarry Lapsang Souchong, any of the organic black unflavored.
I have a wonderful coffee roaster near me, wood-roasted, small batch, regular and decaf, all roast types. It's so good, I won't buy coffee anywhere else, and I only drink dark roast decaf. IF this sounds good, whats your coffee desire, and beans or grind size? They are also a FULLY geeked out space with every video and arcade game known. so I would also send a sticker from them, so also include your favorite old 70's-80's cartoons or fandoms.
Dark roast ftw! I love flavored or just dark roast. Ground to go into a keurig (I use the self fill cups.) Ummmm I can't think of any fav 70-80's cartoons or fandoms that I would want a sticker of. I'm sure there is one, I just can't think of it. Massive brain fog, this is my life.
I’m dying to knit my Witchee something lovely, as long as it would be appreciated. I can’t commit to a big project in the time frame, but socks, a hat, a cowl, arm warmers, or a shawlette for your neck and shoulders could definitely be doable if that would be enjoyed. Just let me know colour preferences, or fibre preferences/allergies.
So I am the weirdo who is too hot 99.999999% of the time and usually I am wearing shorts and a shelf bra cami and nothing else. And am still too hot. But if you wanted to make amigurumi or something, I'm down with that! I love bats, horses, unicorns, dragons, etc. I have a list of "Make For Me" patterns on my Ravelry favorites that has a bunch of knitted stuffies.
I sew clothing and costume, if you could have any garment made just for you what would it be and what would it look like? You can include reference links/images or just describe it.
Ooooh. Does it include leather or pvc or ... let me come back to this.
Do you enjoy stim toys or other fidgety items? I work near an amazing store called Madam Clutterbuckets Neurodiverse Universe that caters to neuroduvergents as well as employing entirely Neurodiverse staff and supporting lots of ND and disabled artists. I live buying stickers, patches, art fidgets and kicknacks. Would you be interested in anything? Website is here but there's way more in store: https://www.madamclutterbuckets.com/
They have a cute bat sticker! My fidgets are usually a ring or knitting or my tablet. I'm rarely without the tablet/phone or knitting. I did look at their fidgets and it made me anxious, so I think the answer is no. I have sooo much "stuff". (I am AuDHD.)
What is your size in say Tshirts? Pajamas?
From TeeTurtle I like the premium woman's in a 2x or 3x. Pajama's I usually wear mens (pockets!) and maybe 2x or 3x.
Do you like Halloween socks? Any particular style or image/character?
I don't really wear socks anymore. I would be ok with quality socks, usually black, and I like moons, skulls, skeletons, pit bulls, Nightmare Before Christmas, etc. I don't do well with one size fits all since I have huge feet, and I don't do well with the mass produced nylon socks from China. I prefer cotton or wool socks.
I was fortunate enough to be gifted an entire collection of the Flower Letters-Lily Clara series. It's a story told through beautifully illustrated letters, pictures, diagrams, post cards etc. One snail mail letter at a time. This one is a story of a entreprenurial woman during the silver rush in the West and a bit of a mystery. The letters and details are gorgeous. I've finished reading it, would you like me to pass it along to you, witchee?
No, I am good. That sounds lovely but my eyes are getting really bad and I tend to be really clumsy and have a hard time holding on to paper and things. I do my reading on my tablet now.
I make junk journals and paper crafts. I would probably have time to make a mini journal or a paper folio type thing. It would come decorated but with space to write and add your own touch or I could make a folio complete with address labels, stationery, stamps etc. to organize your writing goods. Would you like to receive one? My style is generally vintage but I could also do a Halloween one, winter holiday one, shabby chic or something of your suggestion.
Ooooh. I would love to receive one! I would love a theme of spooky with bats, crows, skulls, cats, dead trees -- but not halloween necessarily as no pumpkins or witches or ghosts or whatnot. I'm not sure if I would prefer a folio or a journal; I was looking at journals last night on etsy and added a bunch to my favorites (but I think that is private.) I might have added some to my stationery list on there. I was thinking wedding guestbook sort of journal (so at least 9x11 and doesn't need too many pages, certainly not 400!)
Snag tights have released their Halloween lines. Is there anything there that tempts you? https://snagtights.com/collections/halloween
No thank you, I am too fat for tights right now.
Is there anything you'd like from Lush? I will link to their US site, but obviously different countries have different versions. https://www.lush.com/us/en_us
I love LUSH so I'm afraid my list would be really long.
I will be placing my Dragon Con / Black Moon order *tonight* (8/31/25) -- PLEASE mention now *anything* you would like to receive from this or any recent updates so I can add it to my order! This will be the ONLY chance to get something from the Lab with enough time to receive it and send it on to you!!!
I already answered up thread.
I go to Disneyland Paris a few times a month as I have a pass- is there anything I can get for you? There are exclusive enamel Trader Pins, for instance. Of course, all the other types of goodies as well.
ALLLL of the Nightmare Before Christmas stuff!!! And I like the Haunted Mansion too.
Want any of the DragonCon Claw Polish?
Nope, I'm good. None of my colors there.
I have a Daiso opening near me next weekend. I'm going to the Grand Opening. Is there anything you want me to be on the lookout for?
I have no idea what they have but evidently we have a Daiso about 5-10 minutes away.
I'll be placing a Nocturne Alchemy order asap, anything from the Halloween update catch your attention? (https://nocturnealchemy.com/collections/limited-collection/products/new-halloween-limited-2025?variant=47186703188182 )
Wow, am I not getting the email from NAVA anymore?? *runs to look* Usually Halloween is easy because I'm no cinnamon, no apple (except in things like BPAL's Samhain), no pumpkin (usually), no leaves, lol. All of the vanilla, lavender, roses, amber, etc. though!!

Would you be interested in a handwritten journal, filled with things about some of your favorite things, birthday lore, recipes, pretty pictures, stories, quotes, etc.?
oooh, recipes is a great idea. And stories!
Is there anything you absolutely DO NOT want, that hasn't come up elsewhere? This could be anything from "please, no more plush unicorns, I am drowning!" to "I have trypophobia."
No weird religious stuff unless it's for my weird religion (witching!) No orange pumpkins unless I'm eating them. I don't especially like the traditional Halloween "witches", ghosts, frankenstein's monster, zombies, etc. Clowns - for the love of all that is holy, no clowns. I don't need any hand or body lotion right now unless it's on my wish list specifically. No small coffee mugs (18oz and over is great since a lot of them have been breaking lately. I blame the 13 year old living here.) I think I already covered my sensitivities and allergies (jewelry/metal/bath and body stuff.) Ummm if getting me any kind of dried fruit or whatever, make sure it's organic if it's on the dirty dozen list. (EWG's 2025 updated one.)
If I were to send you a physical book, are there any genres/themes/authors you'd prefer not to encounter?
The only physical books I would want in most cases are cookbooks or fiber art books. (Picture or art books are different - like coffee table books.)
Is there a charity you would like me to donate to in your name?
Not right now.
If I could make you my fudge (not currently selling it, btw, but willing to make for SW witching, nacho witching, etc!), which of these flavors makes you drool :
Chocolate & Peanut butter, white chocolate berry, plain chocolate with or without nuts, Old fashioned penuche with or without nuts, peanut butter fudge, Chocolate with montmorency cherries, pumpkin pie fudge. Also possibly taking special flavor requests.
OMG the penuche without nuts is sooooooooo good. But the chocolate with cherries sounds good, as does the Matcha that was mentioned in thread.
anything from Dryad teas pique your interest? https://dryadtea.com/collections/all-tea
I collect tea pets too... I can't believe how prices have gone up on them! There used to be a ton on etsy! Anyway, there are a couple on this Dryad Teas wishlist.
https://dryadtea.com/pages/swym-share-wishlist?hkey=daa2dd96-eb67-48cf-a059-cbcc2506745f&lid=daa2dd96-eb67-48cf-a059-cbcc2506745f&utm_source=swym-Wishlist&utm_medium=shared-wishlist&utm_campaign=daa2dd96-eb67-48cf-a059-cbcc2506745f
I do canning and make lots of tasty condiments. Would you like to try some? Give me some flavor ideas. How do you feel about peach? Rhubarb? Tomato? Spicy or sweet? Spicy and sweet?
YES. I love peach! I love rhubarb! I like tomato in things like salsa or pasta / pizza sauce; someone made me some tomato jam once too! I like spicy AND sweet sometimes (candied jalapenos for example, or the "canon sweet hots" green chilies.) I also love sweet!
Poesie Tea (poesieperfume.com) what would you like?
Royal Wedding sounds interesting.
Would you enjoy overtly Australian things in your gift? Like indigenous spice blends, or Vegemite, I already mentioned Tim Tams, but there are lots of other fun things I could send. Also, if I were to include chocolate in your gift, would it be milk, dark, or white? Or is all chocolate good chocolate?
Can I have a wallaby? I'd really like one of those. I am preferring milk chocolate lately. Unless white chocolate has cocoa mass in it, it isn't chocolate imo. I like dark chocolate over truffles or caramels but not in bars. I can get vegemite here in the US no problem so pass. Maybe indigenous spice blends? Possum yarn? Yarn from an australian dyer?
Is there anything here that appeals? https://www.erstwilder.com/
I am sad that their bats and winged kitties are orange!! And that the skeletal doggo is a dachshund, lol. I do like the Full of Woe brooch! It's kind of spendy though, so I wouldn't expect it.
Are you interested in having some of this year's homemade peach jam?
If you are someone who makes jam and other things (dill pickles!! candied jalapenos!!), I shall be very pleased to receive such items.
Do you like bracelets? Can you wear soft stretchy polyester ones, like zox? (zox.co) If so, what size would you prefer? (s / m / l)
My question. I belong to the zox monthly club, so I'm inundated with bracelets. (I'm a large.)
Do you need any supplies or notions for any of your hobbies?
Both not really and always, haha. Ok, so I *always* need cables for my knitting needles. ChiaoGood Twist RED Cable Small - 30" or so is good. 37", 40", etc. 50" is getting a little too big. There are some on my fiber arts amazon wishlist.
I'd like to learn Tunisian Crochet but I would need the right hooks with cables (we're looking at $130 for the ChiaoGoo set, lol. So don't buy the Tunisian Crochet books in my Amazon fiber arts wishlist, don't have hooks yet!)
I need a Lazee Daizee Viking Knit tool for jewelry making (on my fiber arts amazon wishlist.)
I'd LOVE the Nightmare Before Christmas official knitting guide by Tanis Gray in some kind of hard copy (easier than reading on my kindle.) (on my fiber arts amazon wishlist.)
I'm absolutely ok with used pattern books!!!
Do you like plushies, like Squishables?
Sadly, I do love squishables. I only get them on major sale though. Bats, crows, and gargoyles all welcome from both squishables and squishmallows. Or other cute ones; I have a huge purple bat from a small indie company that my partner got for me; it sits on my desk next to my monitors.
Do you like caramels? We have a local caramel maker who vends at our farmers markets. Any of these flavors sound good? https://jonboycaramels.com/collections/buy
F yes, all of the caramels, chocolate covered caramels, salted caramels, caramel sauce.. I like all of the flavors EXCEPT espresso because I'm a weirdo. I love the taste of coffee only as coffee. I love the smell of coffee only as coffee. I do not want it in my other food or bath and body. 🤷♀️
My son makes mead, would you like to try a sample?
My question; but if you have mead around you in smaller bottles and it's sweet (none of this dry or semi-dry stuff) then yes please!
We made rose petal liqueur and lavender vanilla liqueur; are you interested in having a sample of either?
I don't actually drink very often and only in very small quantities and only when it's freezing outside, but I do love interestingly flavored liqueurs and vodka. Nip bottles are more my speed.
Is there anything specifically Pacific Northwest or Seattle themed that you would like?
I'm good. I do love trying local favorites, so if you have anything that screams "LOCAL FAVORITE" to you from your home, feel free to share with me.
Maeve Chocolate (formerly Seattle Chocolates) has "seconds" bags; are you interested in some imperfect chocolates? Which flavors? https://maevechocolate.com/collections/truffle-chocolate-bars?
My question. (My favorite is the San Juan truffle bar.)
Trader Joes is getting their seasonal things in. If you don't have a TJ's by you, is there anything you want? https://www.traderjoes.com/home/discover/stories/fall-products-2025
I shall be going and rolling around in all of the maple flavored things (the maple bread is so evil and delicious) as well as the chocolate mousse pumpkins and the pumpkin kringle.
Wyrding Studios just posted a new update. Do any of these appeal to you, witchee? https://wyrdingstudios.com/collections/in-the-waiting-woods
Nothing from the new update appeals to me, but I do love some of the UV glowing necklaces and bracelets! (Fauxfire #2!) probably 24".
Tis the season for planner people. Are you one? If so what is your planner poison of choice and do you need/want supplies and if so, what type do you want?
Planner? I use google calendar. I'm not up to much except doctor appointments and it's easy sharing calendars so I know when the hell spawn or Partner have things to do.
Do you feel like you need some leggings, dearest witchee? https://shopnatopia.com/collections/halloween-25
Wow, those are cute. I love the Moonlit Bats and Gothic Glam. I would absolutely love the deluxe pocket capri or long style. I'm an 18/20 at Lane Bryant but I'm always nervous with new companies that they might run small? Partner loves me to wear leggings around the house more than I love to wear leggings, lol, but I do wear them under dresses (like the short sleeved twirl dresses with pockets from Svahausa.com or skater dresses with short sleeves from other places (svahausa's have a tank top... I need sleeves!)
Dearest Witchee, I'll be in London shortly- anything specifically British you'd enjoy? This could be marmalade or tea or Marmite or gothy clothing or a Union Jack something or other. Literally anything- name it!
Tea, gothy clothing, yes yes. Wine gums? A cute Scottish highlander man? (only if he's ok with sharing me with my partner)
Do you prefer things to be individually wrapped so you can open them when you need a boost, or is putting them in one box unwrapped okay?
Totally up to you!!
I’m about to make myself an order here, and was wondering if anything might also appeal to you, dearest of witchee’s https://www.etsy.com/shop/khallion
I actually already have items from her store on my etsy wishlist. I don't think I have the Misbehave pin yet. There are a bunch of prints under artwork (etsy) and some postcards under "cards and stationary type things", like inigo montoya (Avenge)
Dearest witchee, is there anything here that catches your eye? https://ateliercoco-store.com/en-au
Not really my style.
Interested in any of these? Halloween 2025 – Witch Baby Soap or here MoonaLisa: A Supernatural Clean
Northing catches my eye from Witch Baby's Halloween but some of their regular catalog looks fun. (Aphrodite Face Soap or Morpheus Face Soap, Black Mass bath bomb, Charity Bath Bomb, Dragon's Blood bath bomb, Dragon's Blood soap, Heartbreak Hotel body scrub, Hellhound Scrub, Laid out in Lavender bath bomb, Lunar Tide face mask, Psychic bath bomb, Psychic body scrub, Psychic Soap, Rune Stone bath bomb, Spooky Cat bath bomb, Virgo body butter, Honey Pot body butter.
Moonalisa takes forever to fulfill so I am not sure you would have them in time to mail before the end of round. That being said, I love her dusting powder especially the ambers, roses, and vanillas. Maybe in the Vanilla Cola? Sugar Load Scrub, same - Vanilla Cola. Perfume oil in .... can you guess.... vanilla cola! If you could find some of the older dusting powder in Amber Vanilla or Amber Rose, or the perfume oil, that would be spectacular as well. (I love her Bohemian Velvet but I have more than enough right now.)
There are artists that sell tattoo passes, so that you can legitimately have their work tattooed. Is there anyone that you would potentially like such a pass for?
Brian Serway is one of my fav.
Obvious question of whether you would like anything from the new Lunacy update (Black Butterfly Moon, etc.)? https://blackphoenixalchemylab.com/product-tag/september-2025-lunacy/
I already added everything I'm interested in to my wishlist on the black Phoenix webpage.

I love baking but due to my allergies, I only work with gluten and dairy free ingredients these days. While you may not have these issues, is there a baked good you would love receiving even if it is gluten and dairy free? I also only use honey, maple syrup or coconut sugar, but I'm happy to use monk fruit if you'd prefer/need.
Whatever you think I would like! I'm good with honey, maple sugar, or coconut sugar.
I grow a wide variety of herbs, are there any you need for your pantry? I have mugwort (which I can prepare for tea/spice use, bath use or smudge), thyme, winter savory, sage, various mints, rosemary, fennel (leaf and seed), and I'm certain I am forgetting somethings so feel free to ask.
I would take some more mugwort for the new place except that we are going to sell it and move ... after the divorce is final or closer to that point. I'm probably ok right now since I don't cook very much yet; all of my cooking stuff is still packed.
I do basic embroidery. Is there a simple design or motif you might like? Like bats, spiders, spooky flowers, pumpkins or other such? This will come either in a hoop frame or on a finished hoop (the back is gathered and covered with cardboard) unless you have other needs like an embroidered ribbon or handkerchief.
BATS of COURSE. Purple spooky poisonous flowers, corvids, etc. Gravestones. No spooders.
and another tea question, is there anything here you might like https://www.fridaytea.com/ ?
yes.
for coffee, whole bean or ground and any particular flavor notes you like? Any roasting preferences? Yes I live in coffee snob land and these are real questions.
I like dark roast, I can do whole bean or ground for keurig. I am the heathen who does like flavored coffee (shhh don't tell the coffee snobs) like hazelnut or chocolate cherry, or orange chocolate, or butterscotch, toffee, etc.
9/26/25
Would you be interested in Halloween playing cards (bicycle brand) or a large Halloween puzzle?
No thank you. I have a lot of decks already and I sadly have no room to do a puzzle.
I am also paring down a huge Halloween decor collection is there anything you'd like to inherit?
Skeletons, bats, corvids.... skulls? gravestones? skeletal animals?
9/29
Would you be interested in receiving cocoa butter or bentonite clay?
No thanks, I'm not currently making any B&B stuff.
9/30
So of course, new question since the Weenies just dropped - what has caught your nose from the full list?
I updated my wish list on the bpal site with them. and now I hear that the bpal site wishlist might be going away so I need to make a copy of it. le sigh.
9/2
I'm wanting to place an order with Paintbox Soapworks. Do you see anything you'd like?
New & Limited Edition - 2025 Weenie Collection - Page 1 - Paintbox Soapworks
Fairytale Bath Struesel, The Grey Hound wax melts.
From "Season of the Witch": Black Sun bath streusel
Copied this question from my Switch Witch-My Witchee doesn't seem to be interested, but might my Pumpkin like the following?
I was fortunate enough to be gifted an entire collection of the Flower Letters. It's a story told through beautifully illustrated letters, pictures, diagrams, post cards etc. One snail mail letter at a time. The letters and details are gorgeous. I've finished reading it, would you like me to pass it along to you?
No thank you.
I make junk journals and paper crafts. I would probably have time to make a mini journal or a paper folio type thing. It would come decorated but with space to write and add your own touch or I could make a folio complete with address labels, stationery, stamps etc. to organize your writing goods. Would you like to receive one? My style is generally vintage but I could also do a Halloween one, winter holiday one, shabby chic or something of your suggestion.
Ooooh. I would love to receive one! I would love a theme of spooky with bats, crows, skulls, cats, dead trees -- but not halloween necessarily as no pumpkins or witches or ghosts or whatnot. I'm not sure if I would prefer a folio or a journal; I was looking at journals last night on etsy and added a bunch to my favorites (but I think that is private.) I might have added some to my stationery list on there. I was thinking wedding guestbook sort of journal (so at least 9x11 and doesn't need too many pages, certainly not 400!)
9/4
Anything from Haus of Gloi's fall collection https://www.hausofgloi.com/collections/fall-1 ?
scents: Blood Orange Marshmallow, Ghost Puffs
mediums: fall soy wax tarts, candles, refresher spray, sugar exfoliants
Are there any creatures, autumnal or not, real or mythological, that you feel a strong connection to?
Anything equine. Bats, rats, canines, ferrets. I love sea dragons (the real ones) and hippocampus (the mythological ones.) I really really really miss my porcine friends (my kune kune pigs) and caprines (nigerian dwarf x nubian goaties.)
9/7
Speaking of fandom, I am going to place an order from Karen Hallion's shop soon and wondered if there's anything my pumpkin would be interested in: https://www.etsy.com/shop/khallion
There are so many on my wishlists. Prints, postcards, stickers, maybe one pin. (I have a bunch already from her store.)
9/10
As many of you know, one of my baking specialties is eclectic varieties of shortbread. I think I made pumpkin lavender shortbread for someone last year, I've done spiced orange, chocolate orange, lavender peppermint (a surprising hit that I now make annually). I could do something with rose, a wide assortment of spices, citrus rinds, etc. Anything sound interesting (as an early reveal day zero gift most likely)?
Lavender, rose, chocolate, matcha, chocolate orange clove or orange clove or chocolate orange...
9/15
Do you burn candles / would you like to receive one?
I do not burn candles very often because of my asthma. I still LIKE candles!
Is there anything you'd like from Lush?
I love things from LUSH without SLS or parabens.
Are you interested in having some of this year's homemade peach or (some kind of berry) jam?
Bring on the homemade canned goods!
Do you like plushies, like Squishables?
I do!! I love bats, gargoyles, cemetary gravestones, equines, dragons, etc. (Squishables gets some weird ones...)
Do you like caramels?
Yes! Especially chocolate covered.
My son makes mead, would you like to try a sample? Samples are in recycled nip bottles, about 50ml - OR I could do a 5 to 12oz.
I would love mead!!
We made rose petal liqueur and lavender vanilla liqueur; are you interested in having a sample of either? Samples are in recycled nip bottles, about 50ml - OR I could do a 5 to 12oz.
My question, but if you make some kind of liqueur I would love to try it!
Is there anything specifically Pacific Northwest or Seattle themed that you would like?
I live here, so I'm probably good... although I would never say no to blown glass ornaments ("Witch Balls") in iridescent purples and blues.
Maeve Chocolate (formerly Seattle Chocolates) has "seconds" bags; are you interested in some imperfect chocolates? Which flavors? https://maevechocolate.com/collections/truffle-chocolate-bars?
My favorite is the San Juan bar. Or the JCOCO one with quinoa. (JCOCO is their "upscale" sister/daughter/whatever company.)
Do you have a favorite kind of truffle or "candy counter" piece that you like? (Turtles, seafoam, orange jelles, peanut butter cups, butter creams, clusters, chews, chocolate covered fruit or nuts, espresso beans, fudge, malt balls, english toffee, marzipan, rocky road, etc.)
I love chocolate covered seafoam or cinder toffee, and all kinds of caramel chews and chocolate / vanilla buttercreams. Truffles in general with my favorite flavor profiles. Chocolate covered or dipped fruit is good too, especially apricots, cherries, blueberries. Turtles (made with pecans) are good! I do not like Walnuts.
If you're sugar-free, do you want chocolate sweetened with maltitol or other alcohol type sweeteners? How about stevia? Boehm's has a selection of https://boehmscandies.com/product-category/sugar-free/.
I can do the alcohol type sweeteners but right now I'm fine with full on sugar.
How many food items would be too many for your package? If it's all different brands of chocolates from Seattle, honey, mead, liqueur, caramels, jam, etc. is this a bad thing?
I don't mind having a package full of consumables. Maybe at least one little bat?
9/17
Do you need any storage for BPAL bottles or imps?
I do not. I've been destashing a lot and now actually have EXTRA storage.
Is there a tarot deck calling your name?
Mine are all packed away so I can hardly remember what I have!! I think there was an Abigail Larson one that I was interested in (but I have her Nightmare Before Christmas deck.) And I have the Erin Morganstern deck (author of the Night Circus.)
Could you please be more specific about what kinds of socks you enjoy wearing?
I don't really enjoy wearing socks, which is why I'm mostly barefoot all the time. If I have to wear socks inside of boots or "normal" shoes, I like wool (non scratchy.) I'll do cotton as well if necessary, but I don't like acrylic.
9/18
Would you be interested in any Tokidoki? https://www.tokidoki.it/ My kiddo collected for awhile and we have numerous dupes of older series that might love to tag along in your package.
I would take equines, dogs, or suitably gothy ones (skeletons, sugar skull painted, etc.)
9/21
I'm one of those maker people.
How would you feel about a set of nice long armwarmer mitts? I make them from thrifted sweaters. Wearable art. Any preferred colors? I have a new design in my sketchbook, that I'd love to make for you.
I'd like to see the new design! Honestly I am too hot even in the winter and I don't even wear long sleeve shirts or hoodies outside.
