***6/20-21***

 

Are there any single notes (likely non bpal) that anyone is dying to have/try?

Not especially, but I love sandalwood and would like to try different makers' versions

 

net flick or the likes gift subscriptions? A month of Netflicks vs a DvD?

Oh yes! I've been meaning to try Netflix for some time, and haven't yet

 

Adorable Japanese characters?

Not so much.

 

Do you collect dolls or miniatures? What kind? Do you like to get new clothes or items for them?

No - dolls creep me out a bit

 

Would you like any recycle/upcycle supplies for your crafting?

I had some found objects for my jewelry, but I never used them. I never knew how to incorporate them. Tips for using them would be a good thing.

 

Is there a program you might have missed or show you love which is gone from the airwaves which might be found (or burned) for you by a Witch?

Wonderfalls! I hear so much about it, but never saw it

 

Do you play any online games, like World of Warcraft? If so, what server do you play on, what's your character's name, etc.?

DH got me into this, and now I have 6 Ally 'toons and one Horde, all on Quel'dorei. DH and I have a guild called Blue Man Group, which I joke should really be called "Two Man Group" because we are the only members.

 

Would anyone like bath bombs or bath melts scented with one of their favorite Bpal scents? I do these for myself sometimes and find them to be quite enjoyable.

I just have a shower stall, so unfortunately such items would be wasted on me

 

Would you like homemade cinnamon buns or sticky buns?

Sure, but I don't like frosting on top. Yes, I am weird like that.

 

Is there anyone here that likes Hello Kitty or any other Sanrio Characters?

They're cute, but I'd rather no Sanrio items, thanks.

 

***6/19***

 

How many potential witchees have an iPod, or download MP3s?

I have an MP3 player, I'm not cool enough for an iPod But I am always looking for new music and MP3s would be a welcome gift!

 

***6/18***

Are there any of the BPTP bath oils you adore (particularly ones that you cannot get anymore). What about the room sprays?

No bath = no bath oils. Room sprays: sure, although we mostly use incense

 

How would you feel about an ultra-girlie shawl or wrap in summer-weight (lace)?

If it were handmade, I'd love it, although I probably wouldn't have many places to wear such a thing

 

What would you think of hand-dyed items?

Sounds cool.

 

So, I hear you don't like lacy wraps! How do you feel about hand-knit socks?

I would love a pair of hand-knit socks

 

***6/17***

What kinds of crafts does everyone either enjoy making or enjoy getting? Do you have a certain type of handmade item that you love to collect? Socks, boxes, jewelry, dolls etc?

I make jewelry, so I'd love something not made of beads and wire (see answers about socks and wraps above)

 

Clearly, vegans are not into soaps with honey or milk, etc. But, if you're NOT a vegan how would you feel about soaps made with emu oil? Squicked out/concerned about animal cruelty, or willing to try them?

How exactly does one get oil from an emu? Might be willing to give it a try, I think

 

Would it bother you if you are not the first person to receive the same gift? Imagine a Witch who always sends her favourite book, for example.

Not at all. I think it's great to share the things we really love.

 

Does anyone play video games? What platform(s)? Are there any new or vintage games you would like?

I am not a gamer, really, although I have a Wii.

 

Twilight fans, would you be interested in any products from this Etsy seller? If so, add the items you like to your Etsy favorites and make sure your wishlist is posted somewhere for your witch.

I am not a Twilight fan, so no Twilight stuff, please!

 

Are you in need of decanting supplies, wand caps, or other scent-related paraphernalia?

I could probably use some imp vials, but I'm not a big-time decanter, so it's not a high priority item.

 

Salt soap bars (soap made with a large quantity of salt, like salt-scrub-in-a-bar)?

I'm afraid the salt would be too harsh for my skin

 

Homemade canned goods?

Sure, sounds yummy.

 

would my future witchee like to receive steampunk style jewelry?

Trying to put together a steampunk costume, so yes!

 

Tea. How do you feel about it?

Love tea, would like to try more white tea varieties

 

what is your favorite anime, or if you don't like that what is your favorite animated series?

Not so much into anime

 

***6/26***

How are you doing for BPAL storage? Need any boxes?

Heartbreakangel made me an absolutely gorgeous box, so I'm good right now

 

Is there any place you've visited where you feel like you left your heart there?

There are very few places that I've visited that I didn't love, but I especially felt home in Salzburg and Washington DC

 

What one item would you just love to have that is made by a Switch Witch?

Seriously, just one? Anything my Witch would like to make me would be loved

 

Is your abode a palace covered in fur, a disaster area, or a neat freaks delight?

Kind of a mess, there's piles of stuff all over the place

 

Are there any phobias you have that you absolutely, positively, do NOT want anything from your witch referencing?

I really, really don't like rodents of any kind. Also, someone mentioned that pervy stuff might squick them? It would probably squick me too.

 

What kind of a car do you drive and would you want something you could use in your car? Rear view mirror charms, steering wheel covers (a new thing for the knitters), car blessing medicine bags

I have a blue 2005 Ford Focus. I have some Mardi Gras beads hanging from the rearview mirror, and a safe travel medicine bag. Also, it smells like BPAL.

 

Do you want to know when you have something coming in the mail, or would you rather it be a complete surprise?

I love surprises

 

What is your mailbox situation?

Small apartment-sized box. Our regular guy will bring boxes to the door, though.

***6/25***

 

Are you interested in Tarot or Tarot art?

Yes, but I don't need any right now - I gave away loads of decks in the PIF thread. There is a Tarot deck called the Gendron Tarot. I'm not so much into the deck as a whole, but the image of the Princess of Swords really resonates with me. So if my Witch could find me that one card, or an image of it, I would love it. I also love the Chinese Tarot by Jui Guolang. The illustrations are traditional Chinese ink drawings. There is a more modern deck called the Chinese Tarot that has computer-generated images which I don't care for.

 

What would you think of soap samples/shampoo bar samples? (I believe the latter can be used as soap if you are not shampoo bar inclined). Or other sample sized bath/beauty products, for that matter?

Sounds good to me.

 

What about burnables as in candles, tarts and/or incense?

incense is always welcome

 

Who knits? Do you also spin and dye? What supplies, that you wouldn't buy for yourself, would you just love to have for that activity?

I don't do anything with yarn, but for some reason am obsessed with natural dyed yarns (ie, madder, marigold, especially indigo)

 

Do you like coffee? Whole bean or ground? Bold/Medium/Mild roast?

I love the smell, can't stand the taste

 

So you have enough socks and wraps... (shush, VCW!) Are there any other knitted goods you might like? Lap blanket? Fingerless gloves? Arm warmers? Little knitted animals? Silk scarf? Head band? Wrist cuff? Dish clothes?

Any or all of those sound awesome

 

***6/24***

 

Are you obsessed with honey? If so, is there a particular kind you like best? Spun honey, flavored honeys, certain types of honey....etc.

I don't really know a lot about honey and would probably like to try some different kinds

 

What are your favorite materials? Or material things? Some people like jewelry, some like woods, some plants...

I love the feel of sanded but unvarnished wood as well as pewter

 

Is there anything you've been wanting to learn that your witch might be able to help you with?

Knitting, sewing, chainmaille, press riveting

 

Posters, yes or no?

Sure, our walls are pretty bare right now

 

What do you like to snack on?

I like salty things - pretzels, goldfish crackers especially, and cheese

 

Is there something that would offend you if you received it in your mail/gift/email)? (as in profanity, a bad words in an email/card/music ... or a card or something with a scantily dressed man/woman pictured on it, crude/immature humor tshirts, etc ...)

I mention above about pervy things squicking me, I'd prefer none of that; other than that, anything goes Let me 'splain a little better. (I didn't think this was very clear.) Pervy things don't really offend me as such, but they would embarass me muchly to get as a gift. I can talk dirty with the best of them, but pictures and such would make me blush. Also, there's always talk of sending underpants, and although as far as I know it's never happened, I still always mention I'd prefer to buy my own.

 

Salted caramels?

No thanks, I'm not really into caramels

 

Which flavors are you interested to try from the Chocolate Research Facility? What is this Chocolate Research Facility you speak of? Those all sound awesome, but I'd prefer little to no chocolate, since it can give me migraines

 

Do you wear makeup or nail polish?

I don't wear makeup at all. I do occasionally paint my toenails in the summer, and could use a good basecoat/topcoat combo

 

Do you like shiney hanging porch decorations like windchimes or those things that spin and swirl in the wind?

One of my favorite sounds is the sound of windchimes

 

Hair adornments?

My hair is so baby fine, they all fall out. I have had some minor success with bobby pins, but I can't even wear barrettes

 

Is there any infomercial product you're dying to try even though you know it probably sucks?

Can't think of any

 

What are your favorite websites (besides this one, and the online shops you listed in your questionnaire)?

Animal Rescue Site, Yoga Journal, Hard Rock Cafe Online Pin Catalog

 

if you made something by hand for a previous witchee or have an etsy store or some other outlet for hand made goods, will you post it here with pictures or links?

I've made jewelry for previous witchees, and I had an etsy shop, but no-one ever bought anything, so the listings all expired

 

So would anyone like to receive some original, or very much loved recipes from his/her witch? That would be awesome.

 

List things you DO NOT need any more of: Cluttery knick-knacks. I appreciate little goodies, but I have no place for 'em.

 

What's that one thing you keep meaning to get but keep forgetting or passing over?

Nothing that I would ask my Witch to provide for me - too pricey, which is why I keep passing them over.

 

Who out there is equally challenged and would appreciate icons/banners as witchy gifts?

I'd love one!

 

Are there any etailers you haven't tried yet but would like to be enabled (e.g., a company you haven't tried but would like recommendations from your witch, based on your likes and dislikes)?

Please! Witches from former rounds have introduced me to all sorts of neat things.

 

If you are a dog lover, or gigantic dog nerd like I am, would you like any breed-related items from this site? If so, which breed(s)?

I love Labs and Goldens, and have had both in my life at one time

 

Do you like coffee and/or wine?

Like wine, reds especially, but reds have been triggering migraines. So recommendations for drier whites would be most welcome! I like the smell of coffee, but not the taste.

 

What are your thought on World Market?

I love that place.

 

Non-Melting candies?

I love Brachs Starlite Mints and lemon drops of any maker. Red liccorice, Jujubes, and Dots are also favorites.
