As i put in my SW questions, I will try to keep a better wish list this time so that they have some idea what i am looking for as apparently that was one fo the problems my last witch had with me.
Okay dear Witchy who ever you hapopen to be. I have to tell you i went HAT crazy on Etsy today. Because i have been freezing with our latest cold dip. So the Etsy list now has lots of hats that could give you ideas if your crafty or well jsut ideas of things that i like of that sort. I am planning on keeping this blog to help you know what i am doing.
As i wait for a witch of my own, I am trying to correct my last witches problem of not enough info. I may be over compensating but Hey this is getting fun in its own way. Today at work i saw something and though of something i have always wanted but never been able to find at a price i could afford. Ever seen the candles that when lit the wax doesn't get to hot so you can Play in he bed room with them. That may be TMi but really its something i have always wondered about so i thought i would throw it out there.
In the I am COLD vein of the last week. High today was freakin 28. I went to sockdreams again. Such a dangerous store (its all ursula's fault her and fabulous glove fetish work) I would KILL for some Large thigh high socks to prowl around my house in. As for color choices you can never go wrong with black and anything bright, if a bird of paradise might put it in his nest then in all likely hood i will love it.
really witch i am just trying to put out ideas, be aware that if you just think of me and talk to me you are in all likely hood going to have a very happy witch on your hands.
What kind of candy/sweet treat would you like to receive? I like sour gummies, reese cups and cherry stuff
Would you personally rather get handmade jewelry or the beads to make something yourself? Made but please no sharp or pointy edges. I once had a small cross get impaled on my collar bone and it HURT

Speaking of which, how many Browncoat witches do we have?? And if you are, would you be interested in getting a Kaylee parasol? If not, would you be interested in getting a paper parasol hand painted with your favorite colors?
Is there any time during the holidays (or the rest of the round) when you'll be away from home for a significant period and it'd be best not to send anything by mail? Not that I am aware
To make up for the fact that I probably won't be able to send my witchee homebaked goodies, will Tim Tams in any number of varieties be an acceptable replacement? Sure
Hand beaded jewellery, yay or nay? YAY
Which witches would like hair accessories: clips, scrunchies, hairsticks, headscarves, etc? I love scarfs and Long hair sticks. It has to be longer than 6 inches or it won't even go through my mop let alone hold

How does everyone feel about steampunk? Its not for me, I like a more natrual look
Since we're talking about warm winter wearables, who likes hats? Mittens? Arm warmers? Okay if you happen to be a knitter we need those type things in this house. As my previous post showed I need a largish hat for me. But I could use kid size mittens with strings attaching them. Hubby would probablly worship anyone that made him some nice mitten for his hands (hes like a medium size hand)
If your witch were to send you cookies, what kind of cookies would you like? I like sugar cookies
Who likes tshirts? What about homemade tshirts? Like with transfers I made myself.... I love tshirts, if they are smart elic and wise they are even better

Okay I spent most of today trying to do two things, BPAL related. FIND my Imp of Snow, Glass, Apples. It had disappeared from where i had thought it was. THe other things was get the Final THREE packages from the dear yoakenokami from last round. I didn't get it done yet again. *hangs head* the most awesome present and they STILL can't get photographed.
Anyway I started this because i have lost my wish list. Lost it somewhere in that thread of doom. If you dear witchee have found it please send me an anonymous hint where it can be found. Actually my lsit of BPAL wants is small at the moment. I am waiting on 4 decants from the halloween but I was without internet when it went up and i had to do it by someone reading them to me and i missed two i would like. Sooo heres my latest want list.
Autumn coolness
MICTECACIHUATL
and I know this is crazy and i wouldn't expect it But I am so wanting more Snow, Glass, Apples. One imp of this is never going to be enough.
Also if anyone wants to get to me but not have to talk to me. *pouty face* Then you can always ask my dear mentor for this round Ahania, who is holding my hand rather well so far.
