Halloween SW 2014 Questions

The_Garnet

330 views

1. I wonder what a potential witchee would think about being bombarded with PUMPKINS in various formats. Because my current obsession just may last long enough to be of use in spoiling.....but I know wouldn't be appreciated by everyone. Would you appreciate it?!?

 

I love pumpkins in food, beverages, scents, and home scents. I've been enjoying Sin in the Pumpkin Patch and Moroccan Pumpkin Patch lately - that's the kind of pumpkin I like in fragrances for me. Pumpkin decor is fine as long as its small. "Witchy" pumpkin decor would be cool!

 

2. I currently have a CSA and my significant other is perpetually out of town for work, so I've been doing a lot of canning and baking with my vegetables. How do people feel about canned good (pickles, salsa, etc) and vegetal baked goods (squash bread, zucchini bread).

 

I love zucchini bread and zucchini muffins. I like pickled things like kimchee and picked ginger, but I generally don't like standard dill pickles. Other canned goods are great, though.

 

3. Trading Post wants?

Implacable Beautiful Tyrant Hair Gloss, Amber and Patchouli Hair Gloss, House of Unquenchable Fire Room Spray, Alchemical Laboratory Room Spray, Phoenix Steamworks tee-shirt, and orange, black, and white stockings.

 

4. What direct sellers do you not like and would prefer not to get things from? And also feel free to list any retail brands you really don't like.

I try to get stuff from indie and small businesses when I can, but I don't have strong preferences otherwise. Something being "designer" or not isn't a big deal to me.

 

5. How about y'alls coffee and tea preferences?

I love coffee but currently don't make it at home. Starbucks Via is great though. And tea...I *love* tea. I don't drink chamomile, but everything else is fair game. I drink the most black tea, but I love chai, mate, oolong, rooibos, white, green, herbal...all the tea, all the time. I'd love to try guayusa and yaupon as well. I like stuff from the Coffee and Tea Exchange, Adagio, David's Tea, Teavana, Design-a-Tea, and lots of others.

 

6. Do you cook? Would kitchen accessories make you happy?

I cook some. I could use a salad spinner.

 

7. How do people feel about creative endeavours? Would you like to receive one? Or supplies to make your own? What do you like? Drawings, stories, poems?

All of those sound wonderful, plus any other art, craft, or creative outlet you do. I love creativity and seeing others' creativity, so I will definitely be an appreciative audience.

 

8. What culture or country (doesn’t have to be modern) do you feel an innate connection with? What about it makes it special to you?

I've loved ancient Egyptian stuff since I was little. I'm not sure what captured my imagination about it at first - maybe the art and jewelry. I love the incredible diversity of jewelry and art that has come out of the Indian subcontinent. (Sense a theme?) Ancient Egyptian religion and myth and Hinduism also intrigue me. Also, although I know it's a broad (and linguistic) category, I have an interest in Celtic cultures, which began because of art and jewelry (again!) and also fierce women in history and myth. I've had a longtime interest in Medieval and Renaissance Europe (and the Middle East during the same time period) and have been feeling curious about the Society for Creative Anachronism lately.

9. Is there any sort of art commission you would like: cartoony, pin-up, fantasy, realistic, etc? If so, what subject would you like drawn (a picture of you, a character, a loved one or pet)?

All of those art styles sound good. I would love to have some artwork of the characters I write about - please contact me in some way if that sounds interesting or fun.

 

10. What do you find yourself doing for fun in your free time? What are your main hobbies and interests?

I like to make things - jewelry, crocheting, books...I love to make things using digital fabrication machines like laser cutters and 3D printers, and to hang out in spaces where I can use them. I like to hang out with friends - I'm pretty big on low-key, geeky conversation. I like museums, parks, and exploring places. I read, write, and dance too.

 

11. Table-top gaming? If yes, what kind, edition, etc? Gaming accessories you long for?

I used to, but I don't have a group right now. I miss it, though. I used to play D&D 3.5, White Wolf, Iron Heroes, and some homebrew stuff. I especially like old Mage (Mage: The Ascension Third Edition) and both versions of Changeling.

 

12. DVD movies or games that you wish would magically appear in your hands? Can they be used, through Amazon? Used would be fine. I would love to have both Despicable Me movies and both Hobbit movies.

 

13. What kind of snacks or candy from other countries/states would you like to try? I'd love to try green tea kit kats and other Japanese candy. I've also had a few Tim Tams and would like to try more.

 

14. Do you have a favorite internet meme, character or pop culture fandom? I like Grumpy Cat and lolcats in general. :)

 

15. Do you have a Facebook profile (or other social media) that you are comfortable linking to aid your witch in stalking? Please note whether you are willing to add BPALers as friends. I don't do much with my facebook.

 

16. Anybody interested in something from RCCC, whether it's con-exclusive merch or from a particular exhibitor or artist? Seems like it's too late for this one, but if you happened to pick up something nifty, that's cool too!

 

17. How important to you is regular contact / chatter with your witch? I like occasional contact - my schedule was severely busy in September and I sometimes suck at replying to email, so I definitely understand and don't expect constant chatter at all.

 

18. Do you like puzzles/riddles/treasure hunts and that sort of thing? Treasure hunts and scavenger hunts are fun! I'm less into things like crossword puzzles and Sudoku.

 

19. If you were to receive music, would you want a physical CD or digital versions? Either is fine!

 

20. What’s a current problem/annoyance you have that could be remedied but you haven’t had time to address it? I need to get some good makeup suitable for a professional look, and tips for how to apply it.

 

21. How do you feel about having some sort of trinket to carry around for good luck/wishes? i.e. a small figurine, symbol, card, coin… I like that sort of thing - I like gifts with good/helpful intent.

 

22. Are you superstitious about anything? Any things you can't have in your house for that reason--bad associations? As long as it didn't come from toxic people who used to be in my life, we should be fine! :)

 

23. For the vegetarians and vegans: How do you feel about things (say, marshmallows or gummy candy) made with vegan gelatin or other typically-animal-derived-but-not-in-this-instance products? N/A - I'm an omnivore. (Possibly an omnomnomnivore.)

 

24. Ok, so we've covered pumpkin. How do you feel about the other fall classic – apples? I like apple scents - bonus points for dark, spicy, sophisticated, or sexy ones. (I don't have a good BPAL example yet, but I love Black Apple from Violette Market, and The Halfling's Party from Deep Midnight is just foodie goodness.)

 

25. Do you have any fabric or skin-contact aversions? Nope!

 

26. How do you feel about Christmas/Yule ornaments? I enjoy (secular) Christmas and (pagan) Yule, but my partner and I haven't put up our tree the past couple of years because the snake cage is where we used to put it. Some garland for the snake cage (outside), perhaps?

 

27. How do you feel about Hello Kitty, and Hello Kitty accessories (including mugs, cups, etc)? Hello Kitty is cute. I like cute things, and I *really* like darkly cute things.

 

28. If you had a week free where you could learn anything, with no financial restrictions, what would you want to study? I would love to learn silversmithing and silver soldering, or scuba diving. Possibly also CNC machining. :)

 

29. Do you enjoy poetry? Who are your favorite poets and what type of subject matter do you like? I love poetry. I like Pablo Neruda, Walt Whitman, Robert Frost, Ursula K. LeGuin, and haiku, both traditional and modern.

 

30. Would you enjoy receiving something related to a favorite Disney character? I generally like Pixar, especially all the Toy Story movies. I'm not as big on Disney as on other fandoms, though.

 

31. How do you feel about cute things as decorations or accessories? (Example: Would you enjoy this stationery - or do you prefer elegant/creepy/neutral stuff?) I like cute things. I also like darkly cute and elegantly creepy stuff, especially for Halloween. (Or all year 'round - who am I kidding? ;) )

 

32. What is something you'd really like to recieve from your witch? Please be as specific as possible - no, "Oh whatever she thinks is fine!" I would love some BPTP hair gloss (decants are always fine), NAVA samples (especially vanilla and amber scents), steampunk stuff, TAL decants (from my wishlist), and cute socks. I would love ogham staves, too (see below). Tea and chocolate are also always good.

 

33. Go to your music source of choice - on random or shuffle setting if possible - & share with us the 10 most recent songs/artists. Tori Amos, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Soundtrack, BT (from Trance Classics compilation), Achillea (from The Celtic Lounge), Solas, Sarah McLachlan, my friends playing woodwinds, O Brother Where Art Thou Soundtrack, Mary Jane Lamond, Gipsy Kings. Which is a pretty representative selection. :)

 

34. Tarot cards, rune stones and/or other divination tools yay or nay? I love divination tools. I currently read runes and tarot. I like the rune set I have, but I'm always up for more tarot decks. Right now I have the Intuitive, Thoth, Robin Wood, Steampunk, Shadowscapes, Science, and Tarot of the 78 Doors decks. I'd really, *really* like to learn to read ogham, and to have a set of ogham staves. A nice pendulum would be cool, too.

 

35. Do you have a Celeb crush? or someone who you just can't get enough of....other than your SO Not really, although I love the Mythbusters quite a lot. (Including Tory, Grant, and Keri, who will be leaving the show.) The Mythbusters are part of what inspired me to get into maker culture.

 

36. Glitter? are you okay with it, or hate it like the plague? I love glitter, provided it stays in place. (So glittery nail polish is great.)

 

37. If there was another time period other than now that described your style/aesthetics, what would it be? I love Steampunk, and Cyberpunk, and Celtic Nouveau Cyberpunk (which I pretty much made up.) Medieval and Renaissance Europe made some pretty neat stuff too.

 

38. If you had to pick one or two quotes to live by, what would it be and why? One of mine is "Carpe Diem." The other one is "Dare Mighty Things", and the Teddy Roosevelt quote it came from: "Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those timid spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." It's a good reminder when I get too perfectionistic or get caught in imposter syndrome.

 

39. Do you prefer physical books? CD books? eBooks? If eBooks do you have preferred format, kindle/nook/kobo/PDF/ePub/ect? eAudio? I prefer physical books, unless it's something my partner and I would both enjoy listening to in the car, in which case whatever format Audible downloads are in.

 

40. Smut! Yes or no? If yes, what kink, er, kind? Yes! Please email me for details if you're curious.

 

41. Ebooks! Yes or no? I'd have to read them on my (desktop) computer, which I can do, but I prefer something I can take places.

 

42. If you were to get a custom bottle from House of Gloi made for you what notes would create your perfect blend? Dark patchouli, tonka, white amber, and blood orange

 

43. If your witch were to take a photograph (or paint or whatever) of something just for you, what would it be? Landscape? Flower? Critter? Something to illustrate a favorite quote? Doors, archways, and/or courtyards. Get liminal with it! ;)

 

44. What is your favorite Halloween animal or other symbol/decoration? I like black cats and ravens

 

45. Makeup, especially of the indie variety. Nail polish, nail wraps, eyeshadow, lipstick/gloss, etc. Y/N? Specific preferences (color, finish, product, brand, etc.)? Yes please! All of the above. I recently got back into nail polish. I haven't tried nail wraps yet, but they sound fun. (Although keep in mind - I keep my nails very short.) I'd also love some (mineral?) makeup that would be good for an everyday professional look. (And advice on how to wear it.) And eyeshadow primer.

 

46. How do you feel about profanity and off-color humor? I love it! I can be very profane, although not at work.

 

47. I make hairsticks...would you like/use them? Yes please! I have long, thick, wavy hair.

 

48. Does anyone here LARP? If so, what kind of LARP? And what kind of character do you play? I don't LARP anymore. At one point, I played a Virtual Adept in a Mage LARP. She was a big fan of cyberpunk and technology that affects the physical world. I've sometimes joked that if she was in Chicago now she'd be hanging out with my friends, so anything she'd enjoy would probably be something I'd like in real life.

 

49. Would you completely freak out if I sent you a chocolate covered scorpion or some other food oddity? This includes things like 'bacon powder' from thinkgeek.com. I love odd food, although I would not enjoy eating a scorpion specifically. Ant candy is fine. :)

 

50. This has kind of been covered, but, are you ok with receiving canned jam (from a veteran jammer!) and if so, what flavors would you like and not like? That sounds great! I really like berries and also peaches and apricots. Spicy jam is cool too. Really, anything except pickles and olives.

 

51. Let's talk nail polish. What colors do you love? Hate? Which brands are you dying to try? Have you ever used indies? Do you like glitter? Any textures to avoid (glitter, sand, etc)? I like jewel tones, dark colors, and GLITTER! I'm not as big on straight-up creme polishes, but everything else is great. I like OPI and Zoya for non-indies. (I could really use some OPI top and base coat.) For indies, so far I've tried and enjoyed Dolly's, Comit Vomit, and Starlight and Sparkles. I'm always up for trying more indies and other brands you'd recommend, as long as they're 3- or 5-free. Right now, I'm especially looking for purples, and magenta with silver sparkles. :)

 

Oh yeah, and I could probably use something more subtle for professional wear too. :D

 

52. How do you feel about getting a special Halloween plushie? That would be great!

 

53. I'm in Japan, anything specific you might want from the land of the rising sun? Tea, incense, candy, origami paper, and kawaii stuff all sound fun.

 

54. Are there any GC scents that you know you love, but for whatever reason, keep putting off buying bottles of? Dee and No. 93 Engine.

 

55. I know not everyone likes Lush products, but if you do, which Lush items would you like to get from your Witch? I'd love to get some soap or bath bombs. (Especially bath bombs.)

 

56. Is there anywhere (in the US) that you are dying to get away to? Also when would you be able to get away. Would this even be something you were interested in? If so, go look at the Southwest sale for routes and dates and times. I'd love to go to New Orleans, but I'm really not looking to travel much the rest of this year.

 

57. If you are ok with receiving t-shirts, what size are you, do you prefer tissue tees, normal crew tees, babydoll etc? I like normal crew tees and babydoll tees. I take a large in standard unisex crew tees and probably a 2X in babydoll tees.

 

58. THINKGEEK! Who loves it - do you have a wishlist on there?? What are some things you are jonesing for on there for under $20? I love Thinkgeek, although I don't have a wishlist on there. Really, anything related to my fandoms - Matrix, Star Wars (original) Lord of the Rings, Firefly/Serenity (especially Kaylee), science (especially radioactivity and space), and zombies would be great

 

59. Zombies, yes or no? Yes! Umm, but not an actual zombie apocalypse please. :)

 

60. Would you like arm warmers/fingerless gloves? If so, what length? just beyond the wrist, almost to the elbow, full sleeves? Just beyond the wrist or almost to the elbow would be great. In related arm items, I would also enjoy opera gloves and vambraces/bracers. :)

 

61. Do you feel a particular affinity for a specific animal/s? Hawks (especially redtails), squirrels, jackals, ravens, mountain lions, sharks.

 

62. Anyone have any Paintbox Soapworks loves? ALL THE PAINTBOX! I love her soaps and lotions. I've got a couple of Sorbetto Samples (but wouldn't mind more) and I haven't tried the Bath Streusels yet, but want to. Oh yes, and the scent balms. Love them! I recently ordered Beet It, Blackbird, and Guy Fawkes soaps, but wouldn't be averse to more. The next ones I want to have big bars of are Cyprus and Lavender Truffle, and Punkie NIght is great too.

 

63. How would you feel if your witch or a minion of your witch showed up in person at your house with goodies? Thrilled? Annoyed? Completely creeped out? That would be cool, as long as I knew ahead of time it was happening.

 

64. Do you have a ravelry account? Tell me about your yarn obsessions. I have an account as TheGarnet, but I haven't done a lot with it. I hand crochet and machine knit. I love to crochet. I recently discovered Noro yarn and I love it. I have to admit - I enjoy novelty yarn too. I used to spin with a drop spindle until mine broke - I would enjoy having a new one and some roving to use with it. I want to make more amigurumi.

 

65. Sock Dreams, yay or nay? Yes please! I love cute socks!

 

66. Knitted items like scarves, shawls, dishclothes....yay or nay? Favorite fibers? Favorite colors? That would be neat. I don't have strong fiber preferences, although I like interesting textures and soft things. My favorite colors in general are red (especially dark red/crimson/garnet), light blue, purple, and black. Sage green and dark red things would go with the color scheme in my house at the moment.

 

67. Is your Amazon WL up-to-date? I don't have one.

 

68. If you were to receive handmade caramels, would it matter if they were made with raw cream (unpasteurized)? That sounds good!

 

69. Would you enjoy getting a sampling of quality incense taken from various sources? Are there types of incense you know you don't like? Would you want a burner for loose incense and a few charcoals to get you started with that, or would you rather stick to simpler types? That sounds nice. I already have a burner and charcoals.

 

70. I know we already had a question about needed kitchen accessories, but what about spices? Stuff like garam masala, curry powder, interesting marinades for meat sound good.

 

71. Would you like handmade stationary or cards? How about a quill pen? Those all sound neat!

 

72. On a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being "gimme that ghost pepper!" and 1 being "oh, that's a bit too much black pepper for me" Where is your heat tolerance? 6-7. I like spicy things with good flavors - not just "tastes like burning!" I enjoy Indian, Ethiopian, Thai, and Mexican food, if that gives you any idea.

 

73. What is your favorite type of Halloween candy? Anything with chocolate and caramel.

 

74. Do you need or want any cosy footwear, like fluffy slippers, or slipper socks etc? That would be good. My feet get really cold if it gets below 50F or so - this would make things more pleasant for both me and my partner. :)

 

75. What do you most look forward to each Fall? Fall-themed scents and drinks, Halloween and Samhain, pretty leaves (especially maples and ginkgos), clear crisp days

 

76. What gadgets do you use in your everyday life and would you like a cool case for them - with your favourite fandom or artwork or saying? I have a very old cell phone but I want to get a new one soon, and I don't know exactly what kind I'll be getting. I would love to have a sturdy case for my jewelry pliers, though.

 

77. Are there any beauty accessories you need or would like? For example make-up brushes, facial brushes or eyelash curlers. Make-up brushes would be cool.

78. Would you be disappointed to get one big box, or would you prefer a bunch of little ones? And would you be disappointed if your witch actually had it together early and sent it to you sooner than later? All of the above is fine. This is fun no matter how you choose to send it. :)

 

79. Stores are putting out their halloween PJs and undies! Would you be happy to get any in a package? And if so, what size? For PJ pants, do you like cotton or flannel? Halloween undies sound cute - I'm probably a large.

 

80. Do you like M&Ms? Yes - I like the random varieties like mint and pretzel.

 

81. How about wax melts? I don't have a warmer for them. If you wanted to send one, I probably would use it.

 

82. Would you like a subscription for Spotify? Yes.

 

83. What scents from the Lillith update would you like to try? Lily Witch, Om Gam Ganapataye Namaha, The Heirophant and the Empress, Venustas, and Very Pink Surprise Cake

 

84. Would you be interested in receiving a box of sugar cube skulls? Those are cute!

 

85. Skin care routine? Fave cleanser? Toner? Moisturizer? What about body lotions? Any particular brand or scent? Lip balms? Yay or nay? I like Burt's Bees deep cleansing cream for my face, and I could use a good moisturizer. I like Aveeno unscented body lotion, as well as Paintbox's lotions in my favorite scents. I like Bath and Body Works lotions (and shower gels and body sprays) - my favorite scents from them are Sensual Amber and Black Amethyst. Lip balms are a necessity in the winter - I like Burt's Bees (including the lip shimmers) and For Strange Women's Absinthe Lips.

 

86. Is there anything you would like from Salem MA (mugs, keychains, postcards, etc.or witchy supplies like incense, candles, books)? I'm always up for witchy supplies. I remember from when I visited Salem that they had some more ceremonial magic-oriented stores, too - that kind of stuff is also interesting to me.

 

87. Would you be interested in any of the items in LisaNut's etsy shop? I like the mini witch hat and the "Royal" scarf.

 

88. Spiders (as in cute knit kind) yes or no? Yes!

 

89. Pillows (the mostly decorative type)? Not really, although I could use a nice lumbar pillow for work.

 

90. Any kind of bags - big, small, medium, purse, grocery, etc? Reusable shopping bags are cool. Also, I could use a more professional looking purse and messenger bag.

 

91. Is there anything special coming up in your life? I celebrate the anniversary of the beginning of my spiritual path on October 18. Other than that, everything is reasonably chill at the moment.

 

92. Which one scent would you want from each of the following updates: Metamorphosis, Lilith and GC? Metamorphosis: Question Mark, Lilith: Venustas, GC: Dee

 

93. Are you interested in anything from NYCC? Other than BPAL exclusives? I can't think of anything right now.

 

94. Would something from the Tokyo Game Show (e.g. postcards, fans) possibly interest you? It looks like this already happened. But if you had some interesting postcards, that could be neat.

 

95. Would you enjoy any of these couple rings? Or anything from the same store's Halloween collection? My favorite thing in that store is actually the "Makers gonna make" ring. So cute!

 

96. If you imbibe at all ... preference between: wine/beer/cocktails and then glassware and/or bar-ware? cocktail gadgetry? Books on the subject/recipes? would you want sample bottles of local/regional/small batch craft spirits if they were home decanted and labeled? Sample bottles and recipes/books sound fun. My partner and I like wine, beer, and cocktails.

 

97. Would you like some chai, lemon, rose water or other flavored sugar cubes? Sure!

 

98. Jamberry nail wraps? Those look cute! Just please keep in mind that I keep my nails short.

 

99. If you had to choose one currently available book (used-but-obtainable counts if you do used) costing $20 or under for your Witch to buy for you, what would it be? Cast in Peril, by Michelle Sagara. And used is fine.

 

100. Are there five things under $25 at Birchbox you would like? I could use some good not-too-heavy foundation, quality black eyeliner, an eyeshadow pallet that works with a subtle, professional look, and some lip tint (I like deep reds, garnets, and plums, but I like sheer better than standard lipstick.)

Backstory on me and makeup: I generally don't wear any, except for performing and when I used to do crazy artistic eyeliner designs. Recently, my friends and I were talking about my professional image and how I want to present myself for the kinds of jobs I want to get. They recommended some subtle makeup so I look put together, no matter what else I'm wearing. So I want to learn to do that.

Also, based on a comment from my partner, I would love to have a makeup bag that said "Tactical Makeup". Because that's what it is. :)

 

101. Do you want anything from the Fatherhood update at the Post? A Moment in Time sounds great.

 

102. Street art! Into it? Not into it? Meh? I'm not super into it, but I've seen some amazing murals around.

 

103. If you could only pick one note that you love (e.g. Vanilla, Orange, Lavender, Rose) & you could only wear/have perfume, etc in that note, what would it be? Probably amber.

 

104. What are you interested in from the NYCC exclusive list? Lips of Flame and Heart of Stone, Miss Fanny Phipanny, The Bear in the Cellar

 

105. Most anticipated "Weenie blends? I'm getting decants of Autumn Overlooked My Knitting, Samhain, White Witch, Visions of Autumn I, Pumpkin Spice Everything, Pumpkin I, and Pumpkin IV, and am looking forward to all of them. I would probably enjoy all the Pumpkin and Visions of Autumn scents, and Sonnet D'Automne also sounded tempting.. I'm also glad to see Tattie Bogle back, so I could get more when I run out of my imp. (Note: I like to wear lots and lots of different scents, so I tend to use up scents very slowly.)

 

106. Caffeine or no? And is this a health or preference? YES PLEASE!

 

107. Are you interested in anything from the MAC Rocky Horror or the e.l.f. Disney Princess make up collections? The Snow White makeup collection looks like it would work well with my skintone. (Even if my preferred Disney archetype is usually a villain... ;) )

 

108. I pass this shop every day, If you were my witchee would you like a custom chocolate bar? What would you choose? Plain, white or milk and with what? Yes please! I'm craving some absinthe-ish chocolate, so I would want a 70% dark chocolate bar with aniseed and fennel.

 

109. Would you like to try chocolate covered Turkish Delight or flower flavoured things (Rose and Violet chocolates)? Those would be great - I love all kinds of unusual chocolates.

 

110. For those of you who like Fantasy or play Dungeons and Dragons... would you be interested in a custom painted miniature? If so, what gender, race and class? Any preferences for a theme, color scheme, preferred weapons/armor, etc? Specific character description you would want me to try to hit? That would be neat - please email me for more information.

 

111. Are there any local or national charities that are close to your heart that you know would appreciate a donation in your name? I love the Planetary Society - www.planetary.org

 

112. I have two partial (Backup) bottles of some scents on your wishlist, Witchee. However, the labels aren't perfect, due to a tragic imp explosion. Would you still be ok with getting them? That would be fine - I'm not at all a perfectionist about labels.

 

113. Do you like incense? Or are you more of a fan of essential oil aromatherapy/fragrance oils a la Yankee Candle/B&BW? Or all of the above? What scents do you prefer for those kinds of things? Nag champa? Lemongrass EO for the house? PUMPKIN SPICE EERYTHANG. What companies do you like specifically (if any) - links? I looove incense. I have an oil warmer, but I don't use it at the moment. I like to blend scents and ritual oils with essential oils, though. For incense, I like a lot of Tibetan and Japanese incense, as well as loose incense. I generally like similar notes to my favorite perfume notes. I also like ritual incense/incense with an intent. Recently, my partner and I have been working a lot on home cleansing and blessing. I've also been wanting to try the sustainable agarwood incense from Scented Mountain: http://www.scentedmountain.com/

 

114. Trading Post Weenies are up!! What's everyone interested in? The Black Pine and Pale Incense and Dead Leaves and Dark Incense candles sound amazing. So does the Tricksy hair gloss. In fact, Tricksy everything (from Weenies past) sounds amazing.

 

115. My mom has crocheted a bunch of little witch hats, would this be something you are interested in? Yes, that would be cute!

 

116. Are you interested in anything from my mom's Etsy shop? I like the two rabbit food bags, and the dragonfly and skeleton project bags.

 

117. Are you interested in dried honey crisp apples or italian prunes? Sure, especially the apples.

 

118. Do you need any travel mugs, coffee mugs, tea makers, rock sugar, coffee or tea syrups, etc? I'm good on tea paraphenalia at the moment. :)

 

119. Is there anything from my shop that you might like, past or present? I really love the Key of Fire Pendant, and I also like the Mecha Heart, Symphony No. 101, and the journals.

 

120. What are 6 GC scents & 6 others that you would be interested in as imps?

6 GC Imps:

Sin

Morocco

Schrodinger's Cat

Dragon's Claw

Dragon's Milk

The Raven

 

6 Others:

Hell-Gate of Ireland

Snakes in the Pumpkin Patch

Versailles

Hua Mulan

Zenobia

Tomoe Gozen

 

121. Lush just released holiday stuffs. Any interest?

Rose Jam shower gel, Cinders and Golden Wonder bath bombs, and Yog Nog soap all sound great.

 

122. Any chocolate loving witches want something from this place?

The Blackberry Ginger and Wild Spice bars sound great, and the chocolate milk mix sounds intriguing.
