Switch Witch 2020 questions
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!
The book witch is super cute and I can always use notebooks.
What about www.drawingsbynicole.com? Anything specific? No thanks
Does anything from www.vapidlacquer.com stick out to you? Not really
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!
That would be so cool! I love turquoise and purples.
9/11/20
Is there anything you'd like from the UK?
Clotted cream fudge and anything treacle flavored. And teas!
Do you have a particular fandom you'd like stuff from? I really like What We Do in the Shadows, the TV show more so than the movie.
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?
Chais would be welcome for the fall. Steepologie is new to me, and everything looks good!! I don't need any tea tools, though. I drink both bagged and loose teas.
How do you feel about fragrant things for the home like incense, candles, atmosphere spray?
Candles yes, but I don't use incense or sprays.
Do you share your home with any loved ones (human, feline, canine, etc.) who might enjoy a tiny treat too?
Large dog who eats anything. 6 Cats plus foster kittens right now, they love most treats and toys. My husband will probably get to try any food gifts.
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 don't cross stitch myself. Would use a pin over a patch.
9/8/20
Art and artists - anyone dig any of this? https://www.studiodesade.com/ (They also do masks, see here.) No thanks
If you knit/crochet/weave, would you like custom dyed yarn? And if so do you have preference on weight, fiber, colors? None for me
what is one fun/frivolous thing for $20 or less that you’d enjoy? Random kitchen gadgets
If I sent you to a dollar store with $20, what would you walk out with? Probably some candy or discount Halloween items!
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? All of that sounds amazing
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?? Nothing in particular. I'm just excited to see what the round brings.
Would you rather receive supplies/tools for your own craft/hobby or receive something you can't make yourself? Since I'm not super crafty, something I can't make myself
Is there anything you'd like from Penzeys (https://www.penzeys.com/)?
I've been wanting to try them! Penzey's pepper, Chicago steak seasoning, Tuscan sunset

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!

8/29/20
Does anything from Paintbox Soapworks catch your eye (http://paintboxsoapworks.com/)?
Haha, I placed an order the day her weenies dropped. Hex on the Beach is amazing, I just got the oil in it. So any lotions, bath struesels, or candles. I didn't get any candles on this order, but would love some.
Does anything from the Trading Post's etsy page catch your eye (https://www.etsy.com/shop/bptradingpost)?
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!

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.
Arm warmers! I can wear those in my office. Mittens don't get much use in Louisiana.
I enjoy historical reproductions and am a fan of LBCC Historical Apothecary. Is there something in her store you might be interested in? I get Ipsy and just have tons of makeup, so I really don't need more!
9/13/20
Do you have a favorite art style/movement/artist? There are a few favorite artists on my Etsy. But for grand, historical art styles and movements? It's hard to pin down anything specific, I guess I just get overwhelmed at all of the possibilities.
Who is your fashion icon(s)? With COVID, my library allows us to wear jeans daily. Sure, I like to think that I'd wear the dresses that I own (and sometimes I do!), but I mostly wear jeans and whatever is comfortable.
What is your favorite mythological creature? Selkies. My litter of foster kittens last year had mythological names - mama Nessie and her babies Banshee, Pooka, Pixie, and Bigfoot.
is there anything you want from Lush? I've never tried anything from Lush. I don't like anything that makes a huge mess in the bathtub though.
Do you need any astrological work done, since thats one of my professions? Any particular areas you could utilize a consultation? YES. I would love to do this!
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!)?
Yum!! Forest fruit looks delicious and I love fudge with walnuts.
How do you feel about keto or sugar-free, low carb baked goods or treats??
I will eat them, but I'm totally fine with sugar and carbs.

Please no socks!!! I have too many and my cats love to pull them out of drawers every day and scatter them around the bedroom.
If you're not near one, is there anything from Trader Joe's you'd like?
Definitely!! Nothing specific, since I haven't lived near a Trader Joe's in a decade. If we make a trip to Dallas I'll stop there to see what's new. Snacky things, chocolates, cookies, spices.
How do you feel about local items from my city, like spicy (think chili) things or local coffee? The coffee is not spicy lol.
Yum, yes! Love spicy things

9/18/20
Witchee, assuming you like home made/home canned condiment goodies, what is your spice level preference?
Flavorful spicy. As long as it's tasty, I can handle a lot of spice.
Would you be interested in anything from Cellar Door Bath Supply Co.? Oh, this company is new to me and looks right up my alley. Blook Magick, Crooked Corn Maze, Once Bitten, Sanderson Spice seem intriguing.

Lilith are up! Is there anything from the release that you want? Decant or full bottles? A Little Piece of Eternity, Baby's First Chainsaw, Our Little Crypt Ghoul, You are not Alone
How would you feel about recipes? Sure!
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. We've made a stop at the Alabama Bucees and it was fun!! Lots to choose from.

How do you guys store your decants so they are not a confused mess? If you've got a system, please share it. My decants are a confused mess 😲
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? Usually too warm in Louisiana for scarves
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? Haunted Mansion items would be spooky
9/22/20
Would you like any of Snag Tights’ Halloween offerings and if so, what size? No thanks
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? Either is fine!
Witchee, do you like tea? If so, what kind? I do and make both loose leaf and bagged. Black, green, white, herbal, I'll try any.

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! Sure
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. No thanks
Do you have an Amazon wishlist? If you do and you're ok with getting stuff from it, please share the link! Yes, in the spreadsheet and I recently updated
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? Yay...if edible I prefer nutmeg-free pumpkin spice.
Candy corn – love it or loathe it? Or just don’t care much one way or another? I like it, but only need to eat one or two pieces a season. The mallowcreme pumpkins are a different story!
9/23/20
https://www.poesieperfume.com/loose-leaf-tea <---- would you be interested in receiving tea and / or scents from Poesie? Anything from this site would work for me
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? All of the above. HOMEMADE MARSHMALLOWS made my heart skip a beat.
