Would you like to receive Girl Scout cookies and if so, what kind is your favorite? Sure! My youngest left scouts this year and I haven't ordered any yet. We like Thin Mints, Samoas/Caramel Delites, the new Adventurefuls, Smores and I really want to try the new raspberry ones.

 

Would you like a Gnome amigurumi?  (smol knitted or crocheted gnome)  Yes please!

-- if so, What gnome colors appeal to you?  (three-four colors please) jewel tones, black, gray

-- do any of these patterns appeal to you (I pretty much have all of them including the ones for humans but I'm not going to make a colorwork sweater for you, sorry.  I *might* make a hat or mitts if you like grey, blue, and red as shown because I already have that yarn.) I really like the long floppy hat one - Here we gnome again.

 

How about Gnome tea towel(s)? Sure!

 

Would you like a cross stitched gnome picture / ornament? Sure. 

 

What's your favorite way to experience Nature?  A hike in the woods, a day lounging on the beach, only as screen savers on your computer? Wandering in the woods behind my house, kayaking, definitely love beaches and exploring bodies of water, tide pools, etc. When I think "nature" I think trees and water.

 

what kinds of safety and environmental concerns need to be considered for your gnome so they can safely reside at your home? will they live outdoors so they need to be weatherproof (for what kind of weather)? will they be indoors and need to be pet or child-safe? do they need to be very tiny or capable of hanging on a wall?  I am ready and willing to provide a suitable habitat for an outdoor gnome, but would also happily provide an indoor home. Sadly, I do not have a lot of wall space for a hanging gnome.

 

How do you feel about zombie or other horror gnomes? I'm really not into zombies, but would not be opposed to a creepy gnome.

 

Do you need any seeds? If so what varieties might you be interested in? Flowers, veg, herbs.. ? I have a black thumb, so please, no seeds or live plants. 

 

Would you like feathers from my Peacock, Gary (short for Gyrados)? Sure!

 

if BPAL is one of your treasures, which BPAL would you like the mostest?  (Maybe one that is available right now from BPAL and one Limited Edition/Discontinued?) My wishlist is actually updated for once. I'll try to think of specifics.

 

If you are a tea drinker, which (if any) of these teas tickle your fancy? Parisian Breakfast and Vanilla Black and Nutcracker all look good.

 

would you like a tiny hand drawn gnome picture? Sure.

 

Is homemade vanilla something you might like?  I have a "Mother Jar" that I can decant from.  These beans have been steeping for 2 years in a very nice bourbon. OMG YES!!!!!

 

Are there any colors you would prefer your gnome not to have? I'm not really into orange/yellow/brown or pastels.

 

If the creativity bites, would you possibly like a small embroidered gnome? Could be an ornament? Any gender preference or details you might like added (small mushroom, bee, heart or egg...)?

A little ornament with bees would be delightful. 

 

Do you have a need for cheese knife?  https://ototodesign.com/products/bert-cheese-knife?

OMG, I was all set to saw naw, then I saw the link and he is hekkin adorable and I wants him. 

 

I'll be in Seattle next week- any treat you might enjoy from the PNW? Spoopy/ Gothy things? Nice coffee beans? A Nirvana t-shirt...?   
Always up for coffee beans. Now I am coveting a gothy gnome.
 

I'll be back in Disney World next month- anything you might like from Epcot or Hollywood Studios?   
I can't think of anything specific. 

 

Would you be interested in a small copper nature totem that could nestle in your garden or amongst your plants? I can do some chasing to create a mushroom or a leaf or a special bug fren...

That sounds lovely. Our yard is kind of vaguely controlled chaos, but we have a lot of neat sculptural things hidden about. I would particularly be interested in a bug fren.

 

Would you be interested in a decorative pillow or zippered pouch featuring a gnomely figure?  like this?  or a little coin purse? or please tell me to make this because oh my gods...

Yes! The first or the last for sure. The coin purse not so much. 

 

I have an angora rabbit and she's currently molting. Would you like rabbit fur for spinning, felting, or other crafty uses?

This sounds lovely, but I don't really have a use for it. 

 

Do you need any spices? There's nothing I specifically need, but I'm always interested in trying new spice blends. I could use some new curry blends specifically. 

 

How would you feel about gnome-inspired clothing? I would feel good about it.

 

would you be interested in any horror movie merch? If so, do you have a favorite horror movie / character? Not really my thing. (although a scary gnome could be fun)

 

Haus of Gloi launched their Valentine goodies today. Anything appeal? https://www.hausofgloi.com/collections/valentines-1

Ooh, whipped soap, bubbling scrub, body butter or soap in Come Hither, First Blush, Superfreak, Who Needs Love and maybe Lily Cakes if the Lily isn't SUPER strong (this one sounds intriguing, but potentially migraine inducing)

 

Moonalisa? If she restocks soap or releases body butter in the Lemon Curd and Coconut Cream or Raspberry Vanilla Cream, sure!

 

NAVA? No thanks.

 

Seeds/Plants? Sadly no. I definitely would get no use out of seeds. I might be able to keep an air plant or a succulent alive, but it's iffy.

 

Shortbread? This is my question, but yes, I would love to your version in floral or fruit flavors. 

 

 

Any candles you might like? Be sure to check her clearance for leftovers from Halloween! https://www.etsy.com/shop/TeresaLynnsSimpleLux Some of the Headache and other aromatherapy stuff looks interesting, but I'm not sure about the scents. I definitely have TOO many candles, especially since I rarely burn them outside of September - December. 

 

Lupers? I'll try to get my wishlist updated.
