I don't know if I posted this in other places, but please don't send me BAR SOAP or COFFEE MUGS (unless they're on a wish list) -- I have sooo much/many.

Does anything from Paintbox Soapworks catch your eye (http://paintboxsoapworks.com/)?

Hex on the Beach and Nightwalker are the ones without potential death notes.    Non Weenie:  Journey in Satchidananda, Pick-A-Duck, Rice Pudding, The Queen is Dead, Man in the Moon, Mandinka, Blackbird, White Rose of York, Whiskers

 

No to soap, perfume, hair oil, candles, and slip lotion.   Yes to sorbetto and bath streusal.   Would love some clean slate scrub (not the soap.)    MAYBE on the wax tarts.  I do have an electric tart burner that I should start using more often.

 

 

Does anything from the Trading Post's etsy page catch your eye (https://www.etsy.com/shop/bptradingpost)?

Not really.  I really wanted one of the skelly shelves but I don't see them on the website anymore (and not on etsy either) but I couldn't afford one while they were up.

Is there anything you want from Japan? Current kit kat flavors are... Salty Lemon, Salty Lychee, Sweet Potato, Chestnut and possibly still some Cookies and Cream Ice Cream or Strawberry Ice Cream from summer. Other than that, anime goods, cute stationery, other Japanese snacks, lay it on me!

I love the flavored kit kats!!!  usually.  None of those flavors are sounding really good except maybe the Strawberry Ice Cream?  Would love more origami paper .. mine is all packed up in storage.  I don't know what other Japanese snacks there are!!  I really miss going to all of my Asian markets in the Seattle area though.  Japanese incense!!!

 

What are your favorite self-care items or activities? I'm especially curious about things that you hesitate to do/get because they feel like frivolous luxuries.

Reading and playing video games, baths with lots of scented stuff, eating out (MOD Pizza, Panera, Costa Vida, Dutch Brothers, Sonic, Taco Bell, Chipotle, Jimmy Johns, Subway, Thai food, Ethiopian food, etc.)   Mead and sweet apple cider (hard.)  There are all kinds of flavored liqueurs I want to try but yeah, alcohol seems like a huge frivolous luxury so I rarely buy any.  I'm almost out of my cake vodka that I save for really special occasions and I haven't been able to find any more!  I usually only get chocolate bars when it's on a major sale or I find some I like at Grocery Outlet for a reasonable price.  LuvMilk is one of my favorite luxury bath item makers.  Another luxury is purchasing things like Death Cups (coffee for Keurig) from Death Wish coffee company.  Or Tim Horton's dark roast k-cups.

are you familiar with https://www.a-natural-alternative.com/ ?  Take a peak & let me know if you might like to try something. 

I'd be up for trying lavender or french vanilla lip balm.

 

 

9/2/20

 

Would you like a face mask from one of my favorite artists? https://akumuink.com/collections/facemasks

I'm good on facemasks right now.  My mom and my BFF in France both make them and I rarely ever go anywhere.  I do kind of want some gaiters but I'm concerned they would be too tight.  I was eyeing the Last Unicorn ones (on my etsy masks faves) and a cheshire cat smile one (on amazon) but I have a fat neck so ... probably not a good idea if they're one size fits all.  (plus I would wear them OVER my other masks.)

 

one of our fellow BPAL friends makes custom masks, Hakutaku Custom Masks on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/HakutakuMasks/ ). Would anyone be interested in one of her masks? 

I already bought one from Jennifer (Hakutaku Custom Masks) for my mom's birthday so I'm good there.  

 

9/3/20

 

Would you like anything from here? https://www.etsy.com/shop/TaterRoundsBeauty

The Black Phillip makes me laugh.  Maybe some of the pure daily moisturizer?  I need a good facial moisturizer since Kiss My Face stopped making the one that worked for me.  Or the Ultra Hydrating Vitamin Rich Face Cream & Aloe Gel?   Hyaluronate & Algae Face Serum - Face Serum?   Vampire Tonic!   ok, I totally want some of the Black Phillip perfume too.  Would absolutely try the hair color.  I added a ton of stuff to my "make up" and "other bath and beauty" etsy faves.

 

9/5/20

 

what are your feelings on home made/ home canned jams & pickles or syrups?  I even make things with berries I grow in my garden.  I make both brandied & bourbon cherries. Syrups good for cocktails, in lemonade or tea, flavors include Lavender, Lavender + Lemon, & Lavender + Vanilla.

Interested?

I only have one jar of homemade garlic dill pickles left, so yesssss bring the artisan dill pickles!!!   This year we made peach jam, ginger peach butter, cardamom plum jar, star anise plum jam, plum butter (two different types), apple butter, applesauce, lavender vanilla bean liqueur, rose petal liqueur, dilly beans, green tomato dill relish, and I currently have plums and spices sitting in vodka (Slivovitz, but it won't be ready until December.)  So anything else, I will gladly take!!  Especially brandied and bourbon cherries!!!  BRING IT.

 

Is there something that you're especially hoping to receive for this round?  For example, a brand you've heard of that you're especially wanting to try, or a certain "thing" that you really want but just cant bring yourself to buy for yourself?? 

I'd really love some Scream Inside your Heart or Scream Inside your Snake Oil BPAL and a sticker.  But I'm also in the 13 Nights of Halloween and asked for it there too, so you'd probably want to pop into that thread and ask my Pumpkin to contact you so as not to double up.  Or have someone else do it for you since I follow that thread, haha.

 

Would you rather receive supplies/tools for your own craft/hobby or receive something you can't make yourself? 

I have sooo much yarn and really don't need any more.  I can always use Chiaogoo Red Lace needles in a size US 7 though!  I like getting things I can't make myself too.  

 

Is there anything you'd like from Penzeys (https://www.penzeys.com/)? 

I think I have everything I want spice wise on my Amazon Cooking wish list.   It has a bunch of things from Penzeys on it.    

 

 

9/8/20

 

Art and artists - anyone dig any of this?  https://www.studiodesade.com/  (They also do masks, see here.)  

Really not my color palettes or style.  

 

If you knit/crochet/weave, would you like custom dyed yarn?  And if so do you have preference on weight, fiber, colors?

Anything from fingering to bulky is fine.  I prefer either gradients or semi-solid.  Black and grey are always needed for neutrals, especially paired with a great contrast-y semi-solid (or gradient, lol) to make brioche or colorwork hats (so like dk/worsted) - I love jewel toned purples, blurples, blues.  Dark blackened reds.  Merino is awesome, merino cashmere, merino silk, merino silk cashmere, anything with yak... I don't love alpaca, llama, bfl, acrylic.  Bamboo and tencel are great!

 

what is one fun/frivolous thing for $20 or less that you’d enjoy?

A pig or dragon tea pet!  

 

If I sent you to a dollar store with $20, what would you walk out with?

maybe some frames to hang up some of my artwork, assuming they had frames matted for 8x10.  maybe some gift bags or wrapping paper/tissue.  if it's halloween time and they have cool bats or skeletal animals, that's all me.  

 

 

9/9/20

 

would anybody like a small cross stitch thing, like a patch or pin? or cross stitching notions like handmade needle minders?

I am old and losing eyesight, so although I really wanted to learn cross stitch, I just can't see.  So no notions.  I would love to receive a patch or pin!

 

9/11/20

 

Is there anything you'd like from the UK? 

um, yes!  Tea!  Chocolate!  Future Primitive stuff!  

 

Do you have a particular fandom you'd like stuff from?

I have fandoms that I like things from that are on wish lists - I'm still kicking myself for not getting the Princess Bride funko pops when I was at the Everett store but unless I really love them, I don't collect them.  If that makes sense.  I know it when I see it?  And I usually add it to a list?  There are a lot of fandom pins, for example, on my etsy jewelry faves from Firefly, HP, Brave, Buffy, etc.  I love Nightmare Before Christmas and love the cookie jars.  Hot Topic usually has a new one every year?  Or used to, I haven't been shopping for the past four or five years so my collection is very small and all packed up.

 

How do you feel about tea?  Preferences?  Would you want anything from David's Tea (https://www.davidstea.com/us_en/home/), Steepologie (https://www.steepologie.com/), Bird & Blend (https://birdandblendtea.com/us_en/), or do you have a favorite tea maker to suggest?  What about tea tools or cups?  

YESSSSS  I have things from Bird and Blend, David's Tea, Mariage Freres, Dammann Freres,  Harney & Sons, Stephen Smith Tea, etc. on my amazon Beverages wish list.   Oh!  And I love Blackthorn Hoodoo Tea, I should add some of those.   

 

As far as tools go, I have a variable temperature electric tea kettle, multiple tea pots, and a couple of ingenuitea type tea strainers so I'm probably good.  Please for the love of god no more coffee or tea cups unless they are specifically on a wishlist.   Oh, I do have some ice tea pitchers / infusers and water bottles on my wishlist.  There was one kind that had a screw off bottom so you could fill it with ice easily but I can't remember where I saw it at.  Any water bottles need to be stainless/aluminum and preferably dishwasher safe.  I do kind of want another black iron japanese style tea pot but they're never large enough for me.

 

How do you feel about fragrant things for the home like incense, candles, atmosphere spray?  

I love pillow spray!  Would love to try the low smoke incense from Shoyeido  (all of the scents sound fine.)  I don't burn candles very often because of my respiratory disease but I do love Sihaya & Co's candles - I burned one during our recent four day power outage and it didn't irritate my lungs so I am hopeful.  Would love Black Roses, Samhain Dusk, Celtic Twilight, I am Here I am Whole, Long Distance Hug.  I rarely use atmosphere spray because I don't want to choke the dogs.  I have three or four boxes of it (BPTP) in my closet.

 

Do you share your home with any loved ones (human, feline, canine, etc.) who might enjoy a tiny treat too?  

My dogs always love treats!   I also have pigs, goats, and sheep but they are all totally spoiled and love bananas, so I think they're set.  ;) 


 

9/12/20

 

Does anyone like the prints or items from www.ElissaMarieCreative.com ? I have a few of her prints and the notebooks and they are quality!

I kind of like some of the art work but the color palette is very much not me.    (and I'm getting full walls for artwork and don't use notebooks.)

 

What about www.drawingsbynicole.com? Anything specific?

Nope.

 

Does anything from www.vapidlacquer.com stick out to you?

Sugar Scrub or Body Mist both sound nice.  Sugared Rose, Continuity for the Body Mist.  Available scent notes are missing for the sugar scrubs.  Maybe Butter Beer or Vanilla Vixen?

 

I do pour painting/acrylic fluid art (with varying degrees of success, haha). Would you like a custom piece in colors of your choice (takes 3-4 weeks with curing, longer if you want it sealed, so it would arrive post-round if custom) or a piece already finished in my collection? I have mostly 12 x 12 and 10 x 10s  right now. Pics available upon request! 

Would love to see what you've got.  My walls are getting full of art already and I have a ton more to hang up that I need frames for (matted for 8x10 artwork from Brian Serway.)  I only have a small room in someone else's house and being disabled, I don't know that I'll ever have my own place again.

 

 

After enjoying looking at the links several others have put in the questions, I decided to add some of my own favorite independent artists who I enjoy supporting - so, what do you think of the goodies from these people? And specific items you love? Enjoy!

1) https://www.catcoven.com/ -- Creature of the Night silver pin.  Curious Wanderer Silver pin.

2) https://www.mineralgypsy.com -- I love crystals.  Anything you'd think I'd like.  

3) https://www.redbubble.com/people/thelatestkate/shop -- Super cute but bright.  I could actually use a new ipad case but I need the kind that doubles as a stand (I have an older iPad air.)  I'd say a water bottle but none of her water bottle designs call to me.

4) https://www.marikapaz.com/shop/ - would totally take sheets of stickers to decorate packages with.

5) https://www.faunwood.com - nothing really.

6) https://www.shannatrumbly.com/ - I really don't need any prints right now and the stickers are pretty expensive.

7) https://fiddlersgreenzine.com - are these zines?  I love the style (very Tolkien) but don't really like zines.

8 ) https://www.hedgespokenpress.com - I really don't need any prints right now

 

One of the things I do is make nifty things from sweaters that I cut up & upcycle into things like super warm mittens, arm warmers, striped arm warmers, cowls, teapot cozies, & French press cozies.  I don't have a slipper I love yet, but I'm working on it.   So, which of these things might you like?  Give me some thoughts on colors you like & if for a teapot or press, I need to know a size.

TBH, I am too hot 99.99999% of the time and I'm a knitter, mom is a knitter/crocheter, and I absolutely do not need anything to wear that would be warm (except maybe some nordic style pajama socks.)  I don't need either a teapot or french press cozy.  I am super picky about my cowls.   But if you're a knitter or crocheter and want to make me something, I have a bundle on Ravelry called "make for me!"  filled with thing to knit (all kinds of colorwork and stuff) or crochet (mostly amigurumi but also some top hats)    Warning -- all of the fox stuff is for my mom.  So if I receive any of that, she will get it.     I do wear socks, fingerless miits and double length cowls or long cresecent shawlettes.  I don't wear knitted hats or choke-y cowls or smoke rings or mittens or triangle shaped shawls.   

 

Feets are huge, size 11w.  Hands are also huge.  If you knit socks for me I REALLY REALLY need a stretchy cast on (if cuff down socks) or bind off (if toe up socks.)  And both the stretchy cast on AND bind off for mitts.  (I use Jeny's for both, myself, although a cable cast on is usually stretchy enough too.)    I think the stretchy thing is one of those tics of being autistic.   (shrug)

 

I enjoy historical reproductions and am a fan of LBCC Historical Apothecary. Is there something in her store you might be interested in?

I'm not really into vintage-y type stuff and I really don't like things in round tins (especially lip stuff.)  The Rose scented ink is the coolest but I don't write at all!  I can still type and knit, but my hands don't like writing for more than a few words on a note.  The Egyptian Geranium EO or the Organic Clove Bud EO both caught my eye but I don't really have a pressing need for EO's right now.  Maybe a large loofa sponge?  Oh!  4 Thieves Vinegar!  Ok, the 1896 Cleopatra's Enamel looks interesting too.

 

 

 

9/13/20

 

Do you have a favorite art style/movement/artist? 

I think I talked about it in my original answers.  But since I don't really need any artwork right now... 

 

Who is your fashion icon(s)? 

I don't know that I have any particular fashion icons.   I'm mostly attracted to gothy/fetishy/industrial mixes of clothing and makeup but I am too lazy to dress that way myself most of the time.

 

What is your favorite mythological creature? 

Anything equine really (I used to collection tons of unicorn/pegasus figures but they're all packed up.  I love hippocampus too!) as well as grotesques and gargoyles.  And Krampus.  And Black Philip.

 

is there anything you want from Lush?

always.  like every single bat bath bomb!!  ALL OF THEM!  I have other stuff from LUSH on my Amazon Bath, Body, Fragrance wish list.

 

Do you need any astrological work done, since thats one of my professions? Any particular areas you could utilize a consultation?

This would be fun if Holly was my Witch.  But I don't know my birth time and my mom can't find my baby book.

 

How do you feel about the homemade fudge I sell in my etsy shop?  https://www.etsy.com/shop/HollysRainbow -particular preferences, flavors (consider I take special flavor requests all the time!)?

No nuts, Penuche!!!!!  And the apple pie fudge!!!!!!!   *sad grabby hands towards all the fudge*

 

How do you feel about keto or sugar-free, low carb baked goods or treats??

I'm ok with real sugar, butter, cream.  I try to avoid corn syrup.  I'm also ok with coconut sugar and alternatives, but I prefer using castor sugar or brown sugar in things.  My mom makes a lot of alternative, gluten free, oil free, low sugar stuff so I already have access but that doesn't mean I wouldn't want any from my Witch if that is their specialty - I just don't require it?

 

 

9/14/20

 

Anything you'd like from Future Primitive: https://futureprimitivesoap.co.uk

I am interested in the Bath Salts, Shampoo Bar, Sugar Scrubs, and Whipped Soap (especially if you want to send something for my son - he LOVES their whipped soap and uses it for shaving - Ghost Smoke is his fave.) 

 

Scents that sound good are:

Festival

Four & Twenty Blackbirds

OM

Rook & Raven

Sylph

White Witch

Lughnasadh

The Gloaming

GHOST SMOKE

 

 

 

Do you have an Etsy wishlist?

Yes, I believe it is linked both on the Switch Witch Spreadsheet and on my Switch Witch Help (both are in signature.)  And I put it here for ease as well.  ❤️  ETSY FAVES.  That being said, once an item is sold out I am unable to remove it from the sorted lists which drives my virgo heart absolutely crazy.  So make sure to check the "show only available items" when looking through lists.  It's a major bug and the only way around it is to make a new list, add all of the items you want to it, and delete the old list.

 

 

I wanted to share this link to a soapmaker I love and ask if y'all see anything you would like from them! https://www.herbneden.com/

No bar soap, but I would up for trying the bath salts, scrubs, facial stuff, etc.  I put a bunch on my amazon bath, body, fragrance list for fun.  Some of them are kind of spendy but the bath salts and masks aren't too bad.

 

Nui Cobalt Designs perfumes...(just got her latest email): How about the scents being discontinued? The Critters? https://nuicobaltdesigns.com/collections/critters-2020?page=1

or other ones?

Nah, I'm good.  I have so much perfume and no more veins.  

 

9/15/20

 

I have a friend who does pet caricatures. He's done ones for all of my pets. Is this something you would be interested of for your pet(s)?

Not caricatures, no.  

 

Do you decorate seasonally/for holidays?  Is there anything in particular you would like to that end?

My room is always filled with bats and skulls and skeletal things and gargoyles.  I would love Nightmare Before Christmas ornaments and especially the new Pumpkin King tree topper (Hallmark.)
 

Would you like anything from House of Gloi, especially from their Autumn Update? (https://www.hausofgloi.com/collections/fall-1) 

The Fancy Witch body powder sounds nice.  Black Rose or Marshmallow butterbombs.  Do they not do whipped soap anymore?  I'm trying to avoid sugar scrubs right now because I'm battling skin infections and I don't think sugar helps.  Prefer oily/salt scrubs.

 

I know the tea question has been asked, but what, specifically, about Adagio teas? 

mmm tea

Samples are great.  Loose leaf.

 

If you wanted to create a blend for me with your own artwork, that would be fun!   (I don't like mate, pu-erh, or rooibos/honeybush)  Lapsang, Cream, Butterscotch, Clove?

What about anything tempting from Dandelion Chocolate? (https://store.dandelionchocolate.com/pages/home)

Sea Salt Caramels

Chocolate Covered Almonds

Dandelion Chocolate Chip Cookie

Anything from the Pantry & Baking - nibs, chips, chef's chocolate.  (Tiffin is one of my favorite things and I like to make it out of "good" chocolate instead of plain chocolate chips.)

 

9/16/20

 

Would you, my dear Witchee, like anything from April Gloom? https://www.etsy.com/shop/AprilGloom  (this is our @spookygrrrly - switch witch code coming soon to a spreadsheet near you.)

I'd really super love a planchette / skull pendant from her but I love her cute pins too.

 

Would you enjoy anything from my friend Brian's Etsy shop? https://www.etsy.com/shop/BrianSerwayArt?

I have sooooo many of his prints.  I really need some matted (white mat, black frame) for 8x10 for all of his artwork that I haven't hung up yet.  The only one I super want in stock right now is I Am No Man.


Are you a sock person?  If so what are your favourite kinds to wear?  Do you have a sockdreams wishlist?

The sockdream's wishlists are shareable!!  I don't actually like wearing socks but I *DO* need some new ones.  I'd love a bunch of black cotton footie socks!  Also black cotton crew would be good.  I have size 11w feet, so they can't be "one size fits most."  I think I put a bunch of sockdreams stuff under my SW Help (in signature.)

 

If you're not near one, is there anything from Trader Joe's you'd like?

I'm near one!  I can't think of anything I super want that I can't get myself.

 

How do you feel about local items from my city, like spicy (think chili) things or local coffee? The coffee is not spicy lol.

I love dark roast coffee but right now it needs to be k-cups.  I love green chiles!  I have a bunch of chile stuff on my amazon cooking and kitchen and snack wishlists.

 

do you have good feelings about Funko Pop? 

I don't collect them just to collect them but I have gotten a few that I love.  I have the Goblin King, Death, Demogorgon, Jack Skellington.  Would love The Man in Black (Princess Bride) and/or Inigo Montoya -- I'm still kicking myself for not buying some when I was at the flagship store in Everett last time.  Would love Black Philip.  I can't remember if I have a Krampus already or not.

 

Candles! Anything from these places catch your fancy?

https://cantripcandles.com/collections (restocks Friday 9/18 at 9:00 PST)

https://miruscandles.com/collections

https://briarwickcandles.com/collections

 

without knowing if they would irritate my lungs or not, I'm going to have to say no.  I love candles; I am a chandler ffs.  But my stupid lungs and chronic respiratory disease!  Argh!!!

 

 

9/17/20

 

Is there something from your fandom that popped up in another country you'd be particularly interested in?  What, and what store?

I'm not sure!  I don't have any disposable income so I don't really go looking.

 

Would you be interested in some boozy chocolates (or anything else) from https://www.chocolatemoonshine.com/ ?

I'm always interested in boozy chocolates but this site does say that all of their chocolates are non-alcoholic.   The Creme Brulee and Black Cherry Bourbon fudge look interesting - how much do you get for $20, I wonder?  (You can get a pound of Penuche fudge from Holly with free shipping to the US for $20... just saying...  and it's SO.  FRICKING.  GOOD.  and the apple pie!!!  She could probably try her hand at any custom flavor.)

 

9/18/20

 

Witchee, assuming you like home made/home canned condiment goodies, what is your spice level preference?  

I'm a bit of a spice wimp - maybe as high as cayenne (30-50k) but assume I'm eating it with sour cream or cream cheese or something to cut the heat a bit.  I like flavor more than just heat.

 

Would you be interested in anything from Cellar Door Bath Supply Co.? 

The name makes me laugh because so totally Donnie Darko.  Sadly all of their bath salt is sold out and the scents are pretty generic anyway.  Much more interested in Luv Milk milk baths.  

 

9/19/20

 

Lilith are up! Is there anything from the release that you want? Decant or full bottles?

I don't really like (or ever use) decants, I'm a full bottle kind of person.  

Aoede, Melete, Mneme - Sugared cream, vanilla husk, white sandalwood, and flecks of caramel.

Baby’s First Ballista - oakwood, vanilla bean, and sugar cookies.
Boop - Lavender cream, puppy paws, white patchouli, and honey dust.
Between Classes - Fleece spiderwebs, lavender mist, and pink carnations.
Perfectly Normal Childhood - spun sugar, vanilla marshmallows, cardamom, and cake batter.
Rose Quartz Bedroom - Sugared vanilla rose with saffron, white musk, and Lilith’s favorite lavender.
Sentence First, Verdict Afterwards - white roses, tea roses, climbing roses, blood red roses, and a cluster of thorns, blood-spattered and sword-sharp, with clove bud and tobacco flower.

Thunk -teakwood, tobacco, iron, and pine tar.
Two Frames - buttercream-frosted sprinkle cupcakes and a sprig of lavender.

Velut Luna Statu Variabilis - ylang ylang, pink vanilla, carnation chypre, and red benzoin.
Metal Twins - Vanilla cake batter (she only wants the batter!) and flan.

 

How would you feel about recipes?  

You should share them in our BPAL recipe group on facebook?!  (whatever happened to our recipe / cookbook area or was that the old forum?)  

 

Would anyone be interested in anything from Bucees?! It’s a magical giant beaver gas station/shop! It has spices, fudge,  Knick knacks, all things Texas, candy, beef jerky, roasted nuts, and of course beavers! Most things like the fudge and nuts are made in house. 

No beavers, thx.

 

9/20/20

 

How do you guys store your decants so they are not a confused mess?  If you've got a system, please share it. 

I store mine in 100 count ammo boxes and use a grid spreadsheet.

 

 

9/21/20

 

I'm a knitter.  I have some knitted washcloths done, and can knit up more.  Would you like some?  Also, if answered soon enough, I can maybe get a scarf done.  Would you like one?  What colors would you like?  Thin or thick?  With or without fringe?  Are you allergic to any fibers - wool, cashmere, angora, alpaca? 

I think I have answered this one multiple times.  Anything from my Make for Me bundle is great.  No scarves.  No washcloths.  I prefer merino, merino cashmere, or merino silk cashmere.  Bamboo is great for socks.  No alpaca or llama.  Meh on angora.  Absolutely no acrylic except for amigurumi.

 

Witchee, darling, there's a *slight* chance I might be going on a trip next week and *might*, in the course of this trip, have access to Disneyworld goodies from Epcot and Magic Kingdom - any stuff you might desire? 

WHAT ABOUT HARRY POTTER WORLD?!?!  ALL THE CHOCOLATE FROGS!!!!!!!  Obviously I like Nightmare Before Christmas stuff -- especially canisters and plates/bowls from Disney.  No coffee cups though unless they have really large ceramic or stainless travel mugs with a lid (large = 18-20oz.)  I like enameled pins and buttons too.  Large oversize hoodies and zip up hoodies but those are probably getting pricey.  Would take Haunted Mansion or NMBC pandora type charms for my leather bracelet.  NMBC or Haunted Mansion pens -- the HM pen is purple with a bat on the end!  YES.

 

9/22/20

 

Would you like any of Snag Tights’ Halloween offerings and if so, what size?

maybe footless tights or chub rub shorts.  Probably a G because I'm a 20/22 and I'm tall.  Sigh.  Black, purple, skulls, bats... anything gothy.

 

Do you prefer getting one or two really nice/more expensive things or several smaller/less expensive little things? Or do you have no preferance?

Whatever my Witch prefers!

 

Witchee, do you like tea? If so, what kind?

Srsly?  *looks at huge tea wishlists*

 

 

Witchee, do you want anything?  Shirts, mugs, postcards from Anarchist Seattle, Portland, or New York.... https://www.redbubble.com/people/litlnemo/shop?artistUserName=litlnemo

 

Would you be interested in a gently-used tarot deck (or other oracle)? If so, toss out some styles you gravitate towards, cause I have SO MANY DECKS and I'd love to send one or more along!

I'd love the Dark Wood tarot from Abigail Larson.  Or some runic sets.  Or one of the tarot sets from The Creeping Wood.  The Phantomwise Tarot is like my holy grail, I wish Erin Morgenstern would make more.


Are you interested in receiving a burned CD of music? If so, name of genres, artists, styles that you are into or would like more of to explore.

Sure!  I mostly love darkwave and gothy stuff.  

 

Do you have an Amazon wishlist?  If you do and you're ok with getting stuff from it, please share the link!

Yes, it's already been shared multiple times in multiple places, lol.  SO I KNOW YOU'RE NOT MY WITCH.  Unless this is some kind of reverse psychology.

 

Pumpkin/pumpkin spice – yay or nay?  Yay in food/drinks but nay in other products (soaps, perfumes, etc.) or vice versa?  What are your thoughts?

I love the spices that are in "pumpkin spice" but I don't love the way that people think it needs to be orange or to have actual pumpkin in it?  It's not about the pumpkin.  It's about the clove, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, etc.!!!   I dearly love clove, please all of the clove scented and flavored things.  But meh on "pumpkin spice" stuff because it's usually not.

 

Candy corn – love it or loathe it?  Or just don’t care much one way or another?

HISSSS  *holds up cross*   *drops cross when it burns her hand*  BACK EVIL ONE!  BACK!

https://www.poesieperfume.com/loose-leaf-tea  <---- would you be interested in receiving tea and / or scents from Poesie?

Tea, yes.  Scents, probably not.  Trying to cut back on the perfume that is taking over my room!   Most of their tea sounds great except no yerba mate, no rooibos/honeybush, no chamomile please.

 

I have been remiss--witchee (or anyone needing a minion), I am notorious for homemade caramels, shortbreads both savory and sweet, and catnip/catnip laced toys.  I've also started playing with homemade marshmallows and fruit candies.  Any interest?

I will always accept homemade tasty things!  I especially love chocolate shortbread and would love to try a savory one.  Love caramels.  Would totally take homemade marshmallows.  Love candied fruit peel and fruits!

I happen to live near this amazing place.  Do you have any interest is anything that I could pick up there?  The have hand made pottery, cookie molds, cookbooks with historical recipes all sorts of good stuff.  https://www.gcv.org/shop/

Not my time period!  I prefer older medieval type things.

Would you be interested in anything from KBShimmer's new Fall nail polish collection or their Falloween collection?

No.  But I do love their magnetic multichrome polish in other colors!  And I could totally use a nail strengthener because my thumb nail keeps splitting.  And then of course I need base coats, holographic topper coats, and quick dry top coats.  Dang, gets expensive fast!!  (but I added some to my Bath, Body, Fragrance amazon wishlist anyway.)

Witchee, darlin', anything appeal from this goth-metal-Satanic Tea company, Pitch Black North? https://www.pitchblacknorth.com/category/all-tea

Breath of Demons (natch), Antichrist Pumpkin Spice, Coconut Chai (in that order.)  The Vanilla Earl Grey would be my last choice as everything else has chamomile or mint.

the other day I found the pattern I made for a small crocheted skull. I have made some before and included some herbs and oils and such, things that both smell good and are said to carry protective virtues, in the stuffing, and hooked them up to hang in a vehicle or such. Would any of y'all like one of those?

UM, DUH.  YES.

is anyone a Daredevil fan??  I'm going to be working with Christopher Brewster who is Daredevil in the suit (i.e. the stunt performer but not the FACE of the actor... but when the suit is on... its Brewster).  I worked with him on something else... and he was super cool... excited to get to work with him again... but if that's anyone's fandom... I wanna know LOL

All the men in tight leather suits please.  And Charlie Cox!!
