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

I love paintbox and am always glad to get her hot process soaps and lotions. 

 

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

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 trying new and odd flavors of candy.  Stationary is good.  I'm a sucker for cute things.  I've fallen hopelessly in love with Fruit's Basket all over again watching the reboot of the anime. 

 

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.

 

I don't actually know.  I'm really bad at self care.  Probably gardening stuff.  I'm getting ready to out more bulbs in soon and I always want more.  Tulips, daffodils, hyacinth...... anything that will grow in zone 5 b.  I know they sell drill bits for planting bulbs and that would be amazing to have.

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

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 sound delicious.

 

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?? 

 

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

 

I love homemade things

 

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

I adore tea.  I drink more tea then any one person should drink.  I tend to prefer black teas

 

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

 

No incense of candles please, my allergies mean I very rarely or never use them.  I do use atmos. 

 

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

 

I have so many being in the house that all like to be loved on.  My kids are 10, 7, and 4.  And I have 3 dogs and 3 cats that appreciate treats.

The Cuddle fish one is super cute.

 

What about www.drawingsbynicole.com? Anything specific?

 

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

 

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! 

 

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.
