just have to start this ....Cellar Door just posted their Halloween goodies - I love their scents, soaps and candles - which of these might you fancy?

https://cellardoorbathsupply.com/collections/halloween-fall-collection?_kx=wJHWHTN2OASY0k5c5ZR301X0_-q-0iaglCjL2XDqO-E%3D.SE8AhX   The Haunted Woods or Holland Hard Cider soaps look nice.

 

If you'd like handmade knit items, are you good with soft wools or do you prefer acrylic only?  No thanks, I'm in FL.  The only thing I could probably make use of is socks.

 

Are there any items you'd love for fall/halloweenie? (Ie mittens, hat, fingerless mitts, cowl, legwarmers)  Maybe socks?

 

Anyone fancying the new Paintbox Soapworks or Witch Baby Soap Halloween launches? From PBSW- sorbettos in either What the Moon Brings or September.

 

Would you be interested in an adult Halloween coloring book? I recently backed on kickstarter for one by a local gothic art market near me and it's due in during the swap period.  No thanks.
 

What are some OCYL brands you've been wanting to dabble in? I have dabbled, pretty unsuccessfully.  I do like Mr. Hex for LUSH dupes and incense.

 I am working on making bath bombs.  Would you be willing to try my creations?  How about wax tarts?  What type of scents do you favor?  My own question, but if you make them I would love to try yours too.

What kinds of home smell good things do you like? (I.e. incense, candles, wax melts, felt scent balls, essential oils, linen spray). Incense and wax melts.

 

My question for the fellow pumpkins would you like anything from the bath and bodyworks Halloween line? 🤔 Yes, sure. I'd like hand soap or body wash in any of the following: Spiced Apricot Cider, Marshmallow Fireside, Sweater Weather, Wicked Vanilla Woods.  I also think the pocket bac holders in Pumpkin Milkshake and Glow in the dark black cat are adorable.

 

Do you have any interest in spooky squishmallows? No thanks.

 

Of the recent releases YES!!!! these - Vanilla cream, pistachio and macadamia and Butternut squash, patchouli and green fig.

 

And would you enjoy spooky stationary? Sure, although I am way behind on my letter writing.  Sorry penpals!

 

I know a lot of us are witchy and have deeply held beliefs about the materials we use as part of our practice. If you're one of those individuals, are there certain herbs, crystals, etc that you do not want to receive?  I'm not witchy.

 

When you have a distinct preference for one holiday over another, What are some cross over items that actually work for both? I love fall and Halloween equally.  Pumpkins are a cross over item for me.

 

One question (that is actually several questions) -- Local honey? Infused/flavored honey? Local infused/flavored honey with Southwest notes (jalapeno, other pepper, mesquite, acacia)?  Yes to honey with chilis or jalepenos

 

Does anything from JiJi Knight spark your interest? https://jijiknight.com/ No thank you.

 

Any spooky/weenie DVDs you're missing and would like in your collection? NMBC? the Crow? An old Hammer film? Dark Shadows? The Omen? Sleepy Hallow?...? No thank you.

 

Dang (or good!), another serious question -- Shampoo and/or conditioner bars and if so, for what type of hair (dry, fine, oily, curly, normal)? YES!  I love LUSH's shampoo bars but have been really interested in trying a conditioner bar from them or another brand.  My hair is a little dry so I like extra conditioning.  Very interested in whether a conditioner bar would work.

 

I just got the email that the Ectogasm Halloween Collection is live. Does anything interest you? https://www.ectogasm.net/collections/halloween

No thanks, I don't wear pins

On a scale from Paprika Is a Heatwave to Let Me Eat a Peck of Pickled Ghost Chiles, how spicy is too spicy, and how spicy is just right?  I can handle ALL the heat, bring it on!

 

I make lightweight hairfalls- would you be interested in some? Either to incorporate into a costume or just for your own year-round use? If so, name your colors and preferred length, and if you have any fiber allergies you want me to take note of! No, thank you.

Hello all, I have a question.

I make things from old sweaters.

If I were to make you a set of arm warmers/ fingerless mitts, what color(s) & style would you like?  Sorry, I live in FL and can't really use them.

 

Homemade canned and baked and concocted goodies? Any aversions? YES!!!!  Anything, I'm game.

If I could make you some of my fudge, what would you prefer?  I would love either plain chocolate or penuche or peanut butter/Chocolate

 

Are you open to trying different indie perfume houses if I find a scent that I think you'd enjoy?  Sure, although don't go out and buy it, I have too much perfume and don't need any more really.  But if you need to destash, that's different.

 

I love making stickers!! If I could design you some stickers, what would you love to have? It could be halloween themed or not! My art style is a bit simplistic, cartoony, and cutesy, I usually draw fairies but last year I did a swap on reddit and made someone a bunch of halloween dog stickers lol. (Sidenote: They probably won't be waterproof, but they're glossy vinyl!)  OMG Halloween Dog stickers would be awesome, or Halloween Cats or just Halloween :)

 

I've got a bunch of small round labels perfect for bpal 5ml label lid art! Name your top 5-10 scents that you'd love to have lid art made for! Just as a fun little extra in your package if desired ^_^ (Could also work for other companies with lids just like the BPAL bottles) This would be fantastic!  My top 5 would be The Schoolhouse, Raspberry Sufganiyot, Antique Lace, Samhain, Cthulhu.

 

I'm going to Disneyworld in late September! I'll be going to all four parks and attending both the Not-So-Scary Halloween Bash and Epcot's Food and Wine Festival. Is there ANYTHING from Disney that you would like? Is there something you collect that perhaps you'd enjoy a Disney version of (tea, socks, enamel pins, plushies etc etc etc)???  No thank you, but have fun!

 

Would you like any decor from Say Target, Homewood, or William and Sonoma?  Not really, I have very little space for decor (small house)

 

I am going to Dragon Con for the first time! Which of these BPALs do you want? https://us4.campaign-archive.com/?u=50266fc02a3b75767125e0ed2&id=9bf4d797e8. None, thanks.  Gotta use up what I have!!!

Would you like a project bag.  I have a few already so I am good, thanks

- if so, but you don't see fabric you like maybe link to some photos of fabric you like?

- we can do small box bags or pencil / cosmetic / notions type bags too.  or with a drawstring on top instead of a zipper.

- you don't HAVE to use them just for knitting/crochet, you can use them for cross stitch or even not as project bags.

 

If you are a yarnie, are you interested in a ceramic yarn bowl?  I have an extra Harry Potter (I know, I know) one from Lennymud that I bought before the whole JKR debacle and it didn't profit her in any form anyway.  I believe it's Gryffindor themed.  Not a yarnie.

 

If you are a yarnie, I'd love to gift some yarn from my stash so give me an idea of colors / weight / material / yardage you'd like.  

 

Are you interested in trying some of our "thunder butter"?  It's like tiger balm or icy hot, but with herbs, beeswax, cayenne or ghost pepper, menthol, wintergreen. 

cbd version or no?  OMG YES All day everyday!

 

I need to inventory our canned goods but do you like things like peach jam, cardamom plum jam, peach butter, plum butter, pickles, applesauce with nothing added, applesauce with red hots, dried apples or pears, bread and butter pickles, dill pickles, blackberry jam, huckleberry jam, candied jalapenos?  Ummmm drool.. yes please.

 

Any interest in things from our garden like dried mint, catnip, lavender, rose petals, dill weed or dill seeds, sage, rue, mugwort, rosemary? No thanks

 

How about alcoholic things like rose petal liqueur, lavender vanilla bean liqueur, various flavors of mead (chocolate orange, strawberry mango, whatever my son is making)? Rose petal or vanilla bean sound delicious

 

Pumpkin bread or zucchini bread?  How about blueberry zucchini bread with a lemon glaze?  Either pumpkin or zucchini.

 

I make specialty simple syrups. You can use them in teas or cocktails (and desserts).  How do you feel about a Hibiscus simple syrup? I use 2 ounce bottles for these so its just a fun amount.   Sure, I would try it.

 

Format for tea? e.g. teabag vs loose  Either

 

Do you like spooky themed tights? If so, what are your measurements?  No, thanks

 

Pls post your book wishlist!

 

Would you like to receive a 2D collage art piece? What overall vibe would you be into? (spooky, autumnal, whimsical, eerie, lovely, occult, bizarre, smutty etc.?)  All but smutty.

 

Do you like rocks/gemstone jewelry? Prefer polished/smooth rocks or raw/rough? Any favorite stones, rocks, colors that you'd like? No thanks

 

Luvmilks seasonal goodies are out! What scents and formats appeal to you, my little pumpkin? None seem to appeal to me

 

Would you like a Pyrex 4-cup Nightmare Before Christmas bowl with lid?   (Can also get Starwars and various Disney ones.). Sure, Nightmare before Christmas one.

 

August Tea's fall sale starts tomorrow, 20% off everything on the site with code FALL20.  Is there anything you would like to try, my Pumpkin? https://august.la/  Psychocandy or Heartbreaker

 

I've recently taken up embroidery, would you like a small (I embroider on 4" hoops) embroidered piece? What sort of design would you like? No thanks

 

I'm going to the farmer's market tomorrow, and there are lots of great vendors. Would you be interested in soap or chapstick or bath/body products?  No, but always interested in jarred fruit, jams jellies etc.

 

Would you be interested in a tumbler like these? If so, what theme would you like it to be? Glitter or no glitter? What color do you want the liquid to be or would you prefer the blood drip look? No thanks

 

How do you feel about ribbons?  Is there anything in particular you are looking for if you'd want some?  What about ribbon remnants?  Colors/textures?  Don't really need any thanks

 

Would you be interested in any skincare items?  Anything you would not want?  The dermatologist just restricted me to Cerave (BORING!!!), so if you have any of that hanging around, sure.

 

New question: Is anyone else interested in the latest Sphere & Sundry release? https://sphereandsundry.com/offerings/bpals-of-exalted-venus-ii/

Or other S&S offerings? No thanks

 

Do you have any interest in trying my infused moonshine whiskey? I've been thinking of experimenting with autumn spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove) and maybe a chocolate chai.   Sounds a little too strong for me :) 

 

Any interest in spooky shape wax melts in your favorite candle scents? (What are your favorite candle scents?) Yes, I use a lot of wax melts.  Anything seasonal that is very strongly scented.  I hate when I put an entire package of melts in the warmer and I can't smell anything!

 

How about lotion bars? No thanks, I have some.

 

Bird and Blend tea just did their Autumn drop! Anything look good to you? https://www.birdandblendtea.us  (Also, if you're not a pumpkin person, I invite you to check out the rest of their offerings, which are always exceptional!)    Nothing in particular

 

Arcana Craves halloween drop! Anything catching your eye? https://arcanacraves.com/  Arcana doesn't work on me.  I have tried several and they just don't agree with my chemistry.

 

I feel like with some of the witchy/seasonal stuff it might be helpful to know everyone's signs.  If you're interested in that kind of thing, what's your sign?  Leo

 

Would you like anything from The Pickety Witch? (I'm going to the Vegas Oddities and Curiosities Expo next weekend, and she's vending there, so it may not matter if an item is in stock or not on the website!) https://www.thepicketywitch.com/  I love the style but I don't wear pins or earrings.

 

so these nail polishes keep showing up on my instagram and they are kinda vampy--do you wear polish and do any of these float your boat?  NOTE I have never worn Holo Taco stuff so cannot vouch for quality just the vibes are super witchy 🙂

https://www.holotaco.com/collections/dark-rainbow-collection  I really wish I had fingernails

 

I have another new question! Favorite bands/artists? Perhaps you'd be interested in a DIY patch to sew onto your jacket/pants/bag or maybe pins or a sticker or anything DIY-ish? No thanks

 

oooh I am reviewing my switch witch help answers from 2017 and was reminded of Lush--there used to be a big Lushie/BPALista crossover at one point.  Is that still the case?  If so dearest pumpkin are you a Lushie?  Is there anything from Lush you are coveting?  Their halloweenie stuff is out here: https://www.lushusa.com/halloween/?cgid=halloween&pmid=604&start=0&sz=28  This is my second addiction (LUSH and BPAL).  I have already purchased some items but would love Monster Mash FUN, Ghost in the dark soap, Monsters and Aliens FUN, Light the night bath bomb, shampoo bars, conditioner bars, silky underwear powder.

 

Because clothing sizing is so notoriously random &&& my idea of cute may be entirely different from your cute... sock dreams?  yea or nay?  Anything in particular catch your eyes?  I like sock dreams but have 2 large drawers of socks already :)

 

 

I have been buying soap from https://rockytopsoap.com for at least a decade as they are unscented and less likely to affect which perfume I pull out.... I realize they are not colored and swirly and as pretty but they tend to be super hydrating and luxurious.  Do you have any interest in these?  I prefer scented products.

 

Nocturne Alchemy just dropped their Halloween 2022 limited collection! I am popping in here to see if anything would strike the fancy of my pumpkin? 😁

https://nocturnealchemy.com/collections/limited-collection/products/new-halloween-2022-limited-collection

I don't really have any experience with them and I got overwhelmed when I looked so I guess not.
