would you like a scarf?  If so, colors, length, iwide or skinny?  Bulky yarn or thin and slinky?? No thank you; I have more than I use since I both knit AND I never leave the house anymore
 

How about some dishcloths, for the kitchen?  Or spa cloths for the bathroom?  If so, which?  Any particular colors??  YES.  I have knit those chenille flower washcloths and the Peaches and Cream dishcloths in the past but they are long gone.  I generally prefer greens and blues with some pops of brights for home decor.  Like white and blue will never be wrong.

 

Would you like any of Cat Coven's Halloween goods? It's her original artwork based on medieval art. (It's a limited edition of everything, so hopefully things arent sold out yet.) Nothing caught my fancy

 

Look at The Green Salmon's webpage The Green Salmon - do you fancy any of the teas, coffees etc? It's a favorite place for me to stop on the coast, and I'll take any excuse to drive to the ocean. UGH why so many nice sounding teas. Chaga Spice Latte, Rootin Tootin Licorice Chai, Wynken-Blynken and Nod, Daydreamer's Tea, & Bathory all sound super lovely.

 

What are your favorite halloween/samhain treats to eat? Please be specific. I have access to various candy stores, including healthy candy lol. I am a savory over sweets eater so rarely crave them.  But chocolate with caramel or nuts are good, black jelly beans and Neecos.  Those aren't seasonal tho.  Somebody listed a milk chocolate that was cruelty free and vegan from a place located in MO.  Man I wish I could remember where that was {it was me spying on somebody's previous answers} OH here it is

 

Would you like any of these Snag Halloween tights? And if so, which of their sizes?

https://snagtights.com/pages/halloween. I have never tried them but it looks to be that I would be a size F.  Generally speaking leggings or footless tights and fishnets are my jam.  Frank & Shameless are both fracking gorgeous

 

Also is there anything you would particularly like from the UK? I put in a Q re Future Primative and answered it below.  I am unawares of UK specific things?  Other than UK covers for books which lol are too specific to expect a witch to acquire for me.  Like I once asked a UK friend to pick up Fortunately, the Milk for my husband as the illustrations were different and he is a major fan.  Oh wait I was watching a vegan YouTube and she was raving about Truffle Marmalite and Crunchy Peanut Marmalite neither of which I have ever seen here.  Also I do occasionally buy yarn from overseas because breed specific or just not available in the US.  Really I am not picky.  I have had friends send me chutneys etc or treasures they found roadside or at fabulous boot sales... tho you don't call them boot sales do you?

What Halloween things off RedBubble do you like? Share link if possible. I never find out about RedBubble thingies until too late as I don't generally shop there and am only alerted via a post on instagram or something.

 

 

8/31

 

Is there anything you might want from Japan? Snacks (autumn flavors are out~), nerdy stuff, cute stuff anything! I tend to like stationary things--notebooks, pens stickers etc.  I am not sure what qualifies as cute tho--sometimes I am a baby Gothling other times I am super colorful and bright.  I am currently interested in stuff for journaling {which I don't do} or annotating {another thing I don't do}. I suppose I also covet page nibs or book darts and bookmarks.  I do that whole toner and masking thing.  My face it the only part of my body that hasn't succumbed to my eczema probably because I appropriated skin care

 

is there anything being removed from site or a virtual con scent you are interested in trying? my Q and I basically ordered all the things.  My wallet weeps

 

 Moonalisa.....she just released her new Halloween scents, lip balm, candles, and soaps, want anything?  (mooscents.com) Sugar Scull lip balm which is sold out.  Miss Twi kindly said my witch could contact her for some 

 

9/1

 

I was wondering whether Tim Tams in any incarnation would tempt my witchee? I do not mind 'may contain' aka cross contamination list for dairy -eggs/milk and am unable to see ingredients list.  

 

On the less sweet side, are there any other Australian things you might be tempted by? I am unaware of Australian specific things.  Feel free to surprise me 🙂. 

 

Do you enjoy fanfic? I would be happy to write something for you, and/or read/comment upon/gush over thing(s) you've written, if that's something you'd enjoy... I am a fan of many things but alas do not geek out on them.  Therefore fanfic is not my bag.

 

Would you appreciate rare TAL decant(s) in 1 mL amber roll-on bottle(s)? YES.  

 

How do you feel about enamel pens?  If positively, which fandoms or topics would you like?  I do buy enamel pins although I rarely wear them.  I have backed some stuff on kickstarter as well as purchased things that catch my fancy.  I am not sure they are fandom tho.  I backed the ancient Egyptian Little Helpers for example and do wear my Consent Cavalry Pen from Isabella Roman I am currently entranced by some flower pens and made a Q re them below.

 

 

9/2

 

I make lightweight hairfalls, the kind that can be attached to a pony  tail or to pig tails. They are good for those of us that are more tender-headed. I use a variety of materials like shibori ribbon, and puffy yarns and pieces of lace and silk. You can use them for every day or as part of your Weenie costume. Is this of interest to you? If so tell me what length, what color(s) and if you want one for a pony tail or two for pig tails. I have never worn them so I don't know....   I guess lace or ribbons for shoulder length hair? But more likely no.  I will not know how to use them.

During my recent travels I got to experience the incredible delight of Serge Luten perfumers here in Paris (imagine if the Lab and Anna Sui made babies inside a Cadbury Cream Egg decorated with stained glass windows and...you've come close to the experience of being in that shop). Anyway, after spending gobs of monies, they loaded me up with delectable samples of their insanely expensive wares- do you want some??? I was just recently on the Serge Luten website eyeballing the Feminine de Bois which is the updated Shiseido scent I never bought cus I was a poor new mom when I sniffed it.  Ambre Sultan also sounds lovely

Haus Of Gloi just had their Halloween update! Anything appeal to you? https://www.hausofgloi.com/collections/fall-1 I would love some of their pumpkin butters.  I used to buy the Aether {unscented} Eudemonia and Haus Amber also sound good from GC, Honeysuckle Incense or Marshmallow Rose from summer collection.  Hex and Blood Orange Marshmallow from fall?  I have a hard time picking scents from non BPAL sites.

 

 

9/3

 

I just came across this Etsy shop (TheGrayMuse) and  I WILL BE ORDERING and wondering if you would like something from there as well? My Q and I will be ordering as soon as I see my witchee's response.  I am planning on buying the Clearance flowers for myself as I do not expect my witch to purchase something in particular for me and don't want them to run out before I get them!  I did favorite some pens and especially the color wheels

 

 

 while thinking of stuff I might want from UK I was reminded of Future Primitive Soaps which has released it's fall stuff.  Would you like anything from there dearest witchee?  https://futureprimitivesoap.co.uk: My Q and my answer--of the fall collection both body creams {campfire marshmallow and witch cake} sound lovely.  Ghost Smoke soap also sounds like it will smell beautiful. Also Rook and Raven hair soap.  I haven't used a solid shampoo bar in a while but I used to love them.

 

 

I harvested some elderberries yesterday and I have a lot more out there, so I made a batch of elderberry syrup. Would you appreciate a 4oz bottle of it? That sounds like the bomb dot com 🙂

 

Do you want anything from Sea Witch Botanicals (I can buy it locally from shops)?  Most interested in Starry Night Lip Balm then scentwise for candles/incense sticks Quoth the Raven, Imbolc, Lammas, Green Fairy etc.

 

Hirons Drug Store - which is basically an Unbelievable place to browse for every kind of eclectic, fun, spooky, weird, and even useful thing you could want - so tell me some Odds And Ends of things you like or want, I know this is open ended, sorry - - gadgetry, stickers, toys, pens, costumery, snacks, decoration, kitchen stuff, etc.  I put this on my Amazon wishlist: I would love a Mandoline for slicing my veggies into super thin strips.  I am kinda scared of Mandolines but hey I want one anyway.  I do like paper goods so notebooks, colored pencils, stickers, pens etc.  If you see something veganish in the snack isle {potatoes or other savory thing} I am down.

 

Gift Certificates you'd like to places that are local to you?

 

How do you feel about ILNP nail polish and what are your favs from the new Cosmos collection and any others on their site??  I don't use magnetic polishes often so the latest release isn't doing it for me tho I do like ILNP.  I do need a new neodynam strip magnet for magnetic polish fun.  Or a ring one which I have seen but never purchased.  The last bar I had got stuck to my necklace and then when I washed my face it fell to floor and shattered!  I do have 'fun' shaped magnets my kids use but Imma boring tiger eye nail person.

 

Would you be interested in anything from Alobudra? https://alobudrallc.company.site/products/ I was just thinking I would like a Palo Santo smudge stick but that could be purchased anywhere?  I will say 99.9% of my tarot and oracle decks are not catalogued in library thing so it is probably not a safe bet but I am happy to learn more about witchy stuff.  I used to burn resins, cones and incense a long time ago but haven't in years so do not even have the accessories for such things anymore.  Those orb shaped incense holders {zodiac and geometric} are gorgeous

 

are there any more “traditional” Japanese souvenirs you’d like to have (think chopsticks, tenugui, washi paper, etc.)?  OOH the Tenugui I saw when I did a quick google fu are gorgeous.  I love me a repeating pattern. I have never learned how to use chopsticks and I do like washi paper along with any sort of paper type of goods.  I used to use a bento box and liked the bags and egg molds and flower cutters etc when my kids were little.  I still have a bento box but my youngest is 19 and the glory days of fun shaped boiled eggs is not part of my life.  Still I like things like that... are those Japanese or generic asian?

 

 

9/4

 

Would you like to try Brujita Skincare ?  (Ignore the out of stock except for In Your Room collection and Inner Child Ritual candle.) My Question:-)

 

Would you be interested in any jewelry or other items made with tiny bones from this shop? There are some Halloween themed ones: https://www.tinybonesandthings.com/s/shop ooh I saw this from somebody's blog for last years question.  Very interesting but I just cannot imagine wearing wee bones.

 

If you like tea, is there anything you would like from Bird & Blend? https://www.birdandblendtea.com/ You cannot go wrong with a chai blend in fact I popped into page and went immediately to the Sticky Chai category.  Baby Spice also sounded like my usual basic witch type of thing.  I do like rooibos, green, jasmine and fruity teas {pom/orange} etc.  I don't really drink black or breakfast teas.  Also I do not have a tea infuser 😞. I think I mention that every time I do a circular swap as bpalistas seem to be tea drinkers in general and the subject comes up often.  I should probably jump up to something that costs under and over $10 that I never buy myself and add that....  WAIT I found a ceramic mug with a basket in it and a lid for brewing!  I can. have tea!!!!

 

 

9/5

 

 

BloomChic - just discovered them - Take a look at the Halloween stuff, and tell me the link and the size of whatever thing you like!  No thank you so much tho.  I don't wear holiday themed clothing generally speaking

 

PeosieTea https://www.poesieperfume.com/loose-leaf-tea. Yes please.  I think the loose leaf discovery set sounds lovely.  Again anything sweet and fruity instead of harsh and black {obv black tea is good if it is fruity!} Fearless sounds good apple cinnamon.  I am really pretty basic when it comes to tea.  I used to drink the Celestial Mandarin Orange Spice in my college days {with cream and honey!} and since I have had yummy teas at my sisters who frequents fancy schmancy tea companies but I just don't spoil myself in this way.  Really tea would be an excellent I feel totally spoiled gift.    ALSO I don't ask for perfume oils from other companies as a general rule {cus hello I don't need to get addicted to another house} but that MADAR sounds like a dream come true.  I mean, come on, who doesn't want to smell like rice pudding?

 

 

9/6

 

 

Would you like anything from Trader Joe's? (Pumpkin products are, sadly, not in stores yet, but they will be during this round!). I live about 5 mins from a Trader Joe's and shop there for yummy refrigerated things to throw together for a quick meal so nothing really mailable?  I do have a thing for the sparkling soda they sell--blood orange? Pink berry something?  I forget.  Cus I buy blood orange from either them or WF and the other from TJ.  I haven't purchased the everything bagel seasoning although I always think dang I wish I had some.  They have new reusable silicone food storage bags which would probably take less space than all my glass containers.  hmmmm.  Sometimes I pick up skin care from them... they have a newish Brazil nut butter?  Or ooh! the Rosemary Marcona Almonds.  Yum.  I actually buy a lot of nuts from them but the Marcona are the only snack ones.  So snacky flavored nuts would be lovely.  I used to eat all their mustard style bbq sauce and even bought some sketchy batches from amazon when they stopped carrying it so I suppose I would like any of their sauces.  They used to have a fruit tart sold in bakery bit but that was so long ago.  Okay I go there and buy tofu nowadays.  But I am very open to TJs 🙂

 

Do you have any Halloween traditions?   My husband buys several boxes of full size candy bars and then hardly anybody knocks on our door.  He is so disappointed by this.  He has been trying for 10 yrs to hand out candies.  Isn't it kinda sad that children no longer are able to knock door to door?  I mean we live in a nice neighborhood a couple of blocks from an elementary school and kids walk to school from our area.  I know there are kids around.  But the whole Halloween back of car trunk in elementary school parking lot has been the thing.  Very very sad.  Anyway yes we do get candy and decorate the porch and he dresses up and sometimes I even make chili and we give any hapless teen who knocks on our door a dozen full sized Hersheys with almonds or Reeses or whatever else of that ilk.  They make out like bandits if they knock on our doors.

 

What about Halloween-related fandoms? (ie. The Nightmare Before Christmas). Hmmm my favorite witch of all time is Patricia Coombs Dorrie and I have none of her books.  It is the striped socks you see.  My bestest friend of all time gave me a copy of Anna Elizabeth Bennett's Little Witch which was another childhood favorite-- she found me an og copy with the green cover from 60's.   Sadly with no striped socks.  I must knit myself some striped socks.  But yes Nightmare Before Christmas is pretty classic tho it has been so long since I have seen it that I don't actually remember it.  Hides

 

non-U.S folks!!!  We always end up asking what we'd like from your exotic-to-us locales, but do you have any wishes for things from the States? N/A

 

1.  I make things from thrifted sweaters that I cut up & make things from.  Do you like armwarmers?  Long or short? Solid color ( elegant) or funky stripes made from multiple sweaters? Fave colors?  Is cashmere okay?  Wool & related blends? ( I never use scratchy wool for arm warmers.) Do you like buttons used decoratively? Yes I do like arm warmers and knit myself the longer type.  I am stripe cray cray but solids are good. Probably no on buttons?

 

2.  I also do coiled & sewn rope work- it's functional art I wrap the rope in fabric & add appliques.  I just had my first art show with these- bowls, trivets ( that can hang on the wall when not in use), coasters.

Is this something you'd  like ?  What sort of Halloween fabric?  Whimsical? Witchy, bats, mushrooms, moths?  How gothy do you like? I have velvets & sparkly stuff to work with too.  What is your preference witchee? ooh bowls sound nice.  So do coasters type of things to set a candle or something on {not so much trivets as in I am not going to set a hot pan on your art!  ermagod}

 

9/7

 

How do you feel about cherry things? Check out Cherry Republic and let me know if anything catches your eye! Like right off the bat I noticed the dark chocolate covered dried cherries.  I totally used to eat the Trader Joes variety oh 15 yrs ago.  Like I kept them bedside as a treat.  I miss those suckers.  yes to cherries.  All the cherry anythings

 

Similarly, are you into fancy flavors of olive oil or vinegar? Check out Fustini's and let me know if anything appeals!  again all the yesssss except for horseradish or stone ground/brown mustard types of things.  I like olives of all sorts. Jams chutneys etc are fun

 

We also have an awesome store for jams and sauce, American Spoon which you should totally check out! oooh I just typed out jams are fun.  Yes thanks!

 

Would you like some locally sourced maple syrup? yes.

 

Finally, I live in a place known for fudge. Do you like it and/or are their flavors you particularly like? My favorite shop is Murdick's if you need to see a flavor list.  I like nuts in my fudge but alas most fudge is nowhere near vegan friendly.  Greenwoodtree makes a vegan fudge but that isn't local to you.  Also I may have said this in my original Questionnaire I am not nitpick-y re sugar sources or gelatin or anything like that.  I avoid honey and look for vegan foods but my kid brings me chocolate and I will eat it in a pinch.  Did I say veganish or vegan?  

 

Anything from the IKEA Halloween store catch your witchy eye? https://www.ikea.com/ca/en/campaigns/halloween/ I personally do not seasonally decorate because I am No Fun.  Thank you tho

 

https://wildsoulriver.com I own the Magical Nature Tarot and love the feel of the cards.  They have candles and teas and tinctures and books of the activist or witchy sort.  Anything you see that you'd like? The kitcharie spice mix sounds intriguing  as do some of the candles....Thorn Magic and Shifting Light in particular.  Also I didn't see it last night on my phone but how stinking cute is that black cat candle?  Must procure for my cat loving child. They also have teas but not the necessarily tasty kind but the healing kind.  Like I follow them on insta and they had Echinacea tea or tincture that and the elderberry syrup sounded like just what I needed for my reactive airways during cold/flu and covid season.

 

I live near a Penzey's Spice https://www.penzeys.com 

- do you cook? yes

- Do you want fancy schmancy spices or spice blends?  I am 100% down with trying your favorite spice blends

- Do you have a favorite alternative source that you prefer and or recommend?  For example egads I am asking lots of Qs Curio Spice Co, Diaspora etc do ethically sourced spices.  my Q and I haven't checked them out personally yet... came across them while thinking about spice sources

-  If you cook is there a type of cuisine you are interested in learning more about and would appreciate a starter pack of spices for that type of cooking? I am really into Latin, Indian and Asian cuisine aka yummy foods.  I have been slowly buying various sauces and condiments 🙂

 

Colourpop's Haunted Mansion collection dropped today.  

If you're interested in makeup or skin care, are you interested in anything from Colourpop?

https://colourpop.com/  I rarely wear cosmetics.  Like I buy something for a night out and then it is so long until I wear anything again 

 

Anything of interest from Cellar Door? (They have candles and soaps.). ooh I bought my giftee last year a candle and soap from them and it smelled so good.  I was thinking of trying them this year again...  I forget what I got {and they enclosed a cute little sample that was delightful}. Aieee.

 

Are you into wax melts, candles, incense, room sprays, or none of the above? I use all of the above 🙂. 

 

Would you like anything from Luvmilk's Monster Mash? Pegasus Girlfriend dusting powder!  ermagosh I haven't used a dusting powder in forever and I used to use them for my pits, my pits, my pits.... I am totally saying this to the tune of Black Eyed Peas My Humps lol 

 

I dye yarn.  Are you a person who crafts with such?  What fiber, weights, and colors would tickle your fancy?  Would you rather have two different 100g skeins or enough of the same something for a bigger project?  I am a knitter.  I tend to work with lace weight, fingering and sport weight yarns.  Over the past decade I have basically only knit socks or arm warmers, fingerless mitts or hats with the occasional shawl so small amounts work for me.

 

Provided my experiments work, would you be interested in a bar of homemade tallow soap?  I promise I will not send you anything particularly suspect, so this is entirely contingent upon my competence.  sure--I used to actually make soap until 1996 when I had my first.  That lye solution became an issue once I had a baby.  I buy all my soap from indie makers and would love to try yours!

 

Do homemade caramels or shortbread tickle your fancy? I love shortbread and haven't had any since I became vegan.  I would totally sneak either of these into my mouth tho.

 

 

9/8

 

because I’m a knitting kind of witch, would you appreciate a pair of hand knit socks. If yes, would you like them in a particular colour?   Socks are my least favorite thing to knit and apparently the only thing I knit anymore.  Yes.  Handknit socks are the awesomest.  I prefer cool colors.  Stripes are even better 🙂

 

What type of spooky season imagery do you like? (Ie. bats, ghosts, vintage Halloween, etc.). I still don't decorate cus I am still not fun but I do kinda like vintage-y cute or bats.  Bats are super neat

 

Astrid's Autumn Line and Anniversary Tea Party just dropped.  Anything you want?    A friend just mentioned Astrid for florals but I am unfamiliar with them.  I am happy to try something you think I might like

 

Homemade and preserved food goodies - Which of these things would you like my dear witchie? All are organic and grown or made by me.

sun-dried heirloom tomatoes Yes

dried ancho chile peppers - can be whole halves or ground into a delicious powder Yes

sugar-free candied pecans and walnuts or almonds Yes

gourmet quality fudge in many flavors (formerly from my ETSY shop which I had to close until I have my own home again) please give me an idea the kinds of flavors you like. My more popular ones are Penuche, Choc & PB, Pumpkin pie, Forest fruit (with cherries, blueberries and cranberries), Vegan chocolate--I purchased the vegan chocolate with nuts in past.  I would like to try forrest fruit if it can be made vegan as well.  But fudge with nuts are my generally safe 

dried italian plums (pitted) Yes

sugar-free canned plum or logan berry jam Yes

freshly dried rosemary, thyme, basil, parsley individually or in combo Yes.  I am very fond of thyme in particular.

almond flour baked goods (low carb, sugar free, and gluten free) - give me examples of savory and sweet things you'd like have never tried almond flour thingies but I know you are a great cook and am more than. happy to try some savory crackers?  

 

Might you like a witch hat?  Later this month I'm  taking a class at an area museum where I'm  supposed to decorate 2 hats.  Also I crochet wicked cute witchy hats.  I hear these are covetable.  Please share pics if. you are not my witch.

 

 

9/9

 

Do you see anything here that interests you?  They have dry shampoos, whipped soaps, awesome hand cream, linen spray, sugar scrubs and perfume. https://www.etsy.com/shop/faefragrance/?etsrc=sdt. My Q I forget what scent caught my attention this year....Oh yeah Bear Hug hand cream or whipped soap ?

 

DEAREST WITCH THIS WAS NOT A QUESTION ON THE FORUM BUT I THOUGHT OF IT WHILE I WAS GOING TO SLEEP LAST NIGHT.... So you remember where I said I was Vegan but not so strict and then I say stuff like yes shortbread?  Well I am on a horrid no food diet until after Thursday where I cannot eat my beloved beans and rice or spicy foods or even vegetables.  Like no salads! WTFrack is that?  So yes all the shortbread and chocolate sounds good RN [actually always but I wouldn't normally be Yes Yes Yes] When I am doom scrolling on instagram and a food video shows up and they stick in a meat or egg I totally stop watching so I don't want you to think I am normally so wishy washy.  For the record I read Diet for a Small Planet over 40 yrs ago and have been pretty much veg heavy since then. I mean I wasn't vegan but I only ate meat once or twice a week.  Not for the animals but because of world hunger/water issues.  So I was never strict even about being a vegetarian {which I was for years and years but then would be like I want a steak then see sawed back to vegetarian}  But I basically made the choice to cut out dairy and the oh so tempting bbq 6 yrs ago last month.  My husband, who has heart disease, went vegan a year later-- I was cooking flex meals until then.  My children are not vegan/vegetarian or anything like that so I am really super not judgmental but I no longer cook with meat or dairy products and choose to eat out at vegan restaurants.  BUT if I am a guest in somebody's home and they used butter in their cooking I don't make a big deal out of it.  I just don't put the meat on my plate ya know?  Sorry if this is confusing not that you are necessarily thinking of snacks for me but, you know, in case you are one of the many cooks offering up baked goods.  I am sure I would appreciate anything you sent me unless it was something like pork rinds o.0

Anything you want from my favorite local tea shop? www.fridaytea.com

 

How about from my skincare person? drjensbeautylab.com/

 

How about from my witchy Chandler? https://www.etsy.com/shop/TeresaLynnsSimpleLux

 

It's also that time of year where I make handmade soap (usually with calendula infused olive oil, tallow, oatmeal and honey) and candles (feel free to specify color and size, I don't usually scent them, but I do have a clover and apple scent I've been wanting to play with). I can also annoint and dress candles with TALs and herbs. Any interest? Yes to both

 

I also grow herbs which can be culinary or magical. I'd be happy to prepare a smudge or dry some herbs for your enjoyment. I currently have oregano (yellow and standard), mugwort, thyme, sage (purple or garden), tea peppermint, chives, lovage, plantain, comfrey, raspberry leaf, and yarrow. I'm probably forgetting something. I am particularly fond of thyme but yes:-)

 

I also make salves! My go to in an arnica, calendula and comfrey mix for healing wounds or chapped skin. This can also be used on pet paws. We do have barely enough time that I could do a custom infusion. yes

Anything in the Paintbox Soapworks Halloween update looking good to you? https://paintboxsoapworks.com/new-limited-edition/2023-weenie-collection/

If you have a furry friend living with you, what sort of treats do they like? My new pup has only been home for a month now--he is a baby and I don't know anything that he loves as much as my shoes 😞

 

 

9/13

 

 What is your feelings on seasonal mugs?  Yes or, no?  Too many in your house or bring them on??  No thank you 
 

Are your wishlists - Amazon, Etsy, etc - up to date, and if so, are they all linked somewhere that I can find them?  Yes--on master link page/warehouse etc sheets
 

Do you have anything you use every day that you wouldnt mind getting more of? Not really.  I tend to shop in spurts and go years without buying something then show little to no impulse control until I feel like ack too much then back to no buy.  Ummm I think that is a shopping disorder of some sort.  I do need some lip balm.  

 

Anything you love or need to have from Adagio or Rishi teas? My tea tastes here will probably align with tea tastes other places.  Fruit or chai type of flavors.

 

List here things you wish you would've added to your questionnaire 

 

 

9/14

 

Nocturne Alchemy just dropped their Halloween update! You like the looks of anything? https://nocturnealchemy.com/collections/limited-collection I have a hard time picking stuff out from other vendors.  I do like the tea scents I picked up a few years ago but I also have had some misses as well with NAVA.  I am happy to try something you think I would like but I am also semi considering a destash as I have so many scents and only wear a hand and foot full on a regular basis.

 

Is there anything you would like from the Weenie update? I answered this on thread... primarily The Hound and the Milk-White Doe.  Although I am feeling a bit overwhelmed with the number of perfumes I own.  I have finished two bottles recently tho so it does happen. 

 

How do you feel about stickers?  If positively, are there any themes you'd rather not have stickers of? yes on stickers but I cannot think of anything overly offensive.  Maybe nothing super conservative political cus I am pretty liberal on social issues.

 

What about crystals, cool rocks, and gemstones? yes--I in particular would like a globe shaped sun catcher to hang in my windows.  Have been half heartedly shopping for one online but will most likely pick one up in person if I see one at a shop/festival

 

 

9/15

 

How do you feel about Squishmallows and Squishables? (They have mini and micro sizes for those who like cute plushies but don't have a lot of space.) Yes I want one pretty badly.  I don't know why I haven't purchased one for myself.  I keep hoping my husband will buy me one.  My husband purchased the bat MissTwi mentioned

 

Would you wear enamel pins with chains that are meant to be put on lapels? (Something like this.) Yes very cool.  I added some to my Etsy wishlist

 

Speaking of enamel pins... The Pickety Witch's Autumn and Halloween collection just dropped. Has anything caught your eye?

 

I used to make mobiles out of paper cranes, would you appreciate something like this? if so, what size restrictions do you have, if any? ie., should it take up less space vertically or horizontally? color palette preference?  That sounds really neat.  

 

 

9/16

 

ordering bulbs from https://oldhousegardens.com and was wondering if my witchee would like some.   My Q. I have the erlicher daffodil in my garden right now.  I would love more frilly white ones or any of the ground covers on the diverse page like lily of valleys, squIll, crocus, hyacinth etc.  My front off. house garden was redone this summer and they removed the rock ground cover and now it is all weeds!  I need a ground cover!

 

Would you like something like "sock arms" if I find time to craft?  (Sometimes I make a pattern called Toast or Toasty {one has a thumb the other is just a tube} http://www.afriendtoknitwith.com/2008/09/toasttoasty.html.   here are other photos from my blog:  https://www.elkaknits.com/?p=845 )

 -- If so what sort of colors?  My Q again

 

Witchee, what's your take on seasonal-themed Washi tape? I do like Washi tape in general.  I don't think I have ever seen seasonal themed ones tho.

What about seasonal treats from Trader Joe's? I bought their pumpkin mix one year and it was a disaster when I veganized it.  

I make gluten-free biscotti this time of year, lemon and also cocoa varieties: does this sound good to you? Lemon beats cocoa flavor wise

Would you like me to make a music mix for you? I kick it old school with a burned CD. If you're into this, name at least 3 to 5 genres of music you already love, or are interested to explore more of! I have been a Mac user for about 18 yrs now and their computes no longer come with CD thingies.  This would not work for me unfortunately.

Anything here you like? https://bserway.com/. oh very cool-- I go for the cats and bats and cuter things than the spooky specter ones.  On first page I would not appreciate Mad World or Luna's Cape for example but think Shade, Rind Cauldron, Spellbound Seance are adorable... I did not explore beyond first page I am sure there are other super cutesy ones

 

Anything you'd like from my Ren Fest?  There is an outstanding garlic based shop I'll  be going to next weekend, for my annual stock up of their spice blends & garlic oil blends.  Any other Renny stuff that you like? Garlic is King

 

know we are looking at a lot of candles, but if you are into looking at more (and it is ok to say you are not), do any of these strike your fancy?

(Feel free to take a look at their current and signature scents too but I wanted to highlight these fundraiser scents first!) The Jaquar and Heaven Sent are more my number than the Lemonade one.  Heaven Sent before Jaquar...

f you are a person who appreciates tarot and oracle decks, do you have a strong preference about receiving new ones vs gently/barely used? no but I do own a lot of tarot decks and they aren't listed on my library thing.

 

Are you a Studio Ghibli fan, and if so, what are your feelings about fan made art featuring characters? Yes I do like Studio Ghibli. My niece worked at Disney forever as a photographer and she is no longer with them.  My in no longer exists.

 

Want anything from LUSH? Here's the link specifically to their Halloween drop (https://www.lush.com/us/en_us/c/halloween) BUT, feel free to peruse all of it. Ugh I answered this on forum and I forget what I said.  I think I said anything from body area esp stuff like the solid lotion bars and I think I picked out a scent that sounded good from weenies.  I am so behind!

Part 2 of the Autumnal/Halloween drop from Haus of Gloi is coming this weekend- take a look and see if anything is compelling! https://www.hausofgloi.com  (fall part 2 is live on Sunday, here is a list of what is coming:  https://www.hausofgloi.com/blogs/haus-herald/fall-part-2) pretty sure I answered this on forum...

Also, I live in Philly and will use ANY reason to spend time at the Mütter Museum- anything of interest (including, but not limited to, the well-loved BPAL exclusive for the museum, Ü?) https://www.muttermuseumstore.org you know I have never clicked on this one before--they have some cute stationary items {not the personal library kit!}. Spit spreads Death tickles my fancy but only cus I am a smarty pants.  Or perhaps it is todays mood.  I also really like the My Pronouns Are pin because that is so thoughtful and fabulous to have it in a semi permanent format instead of a name tag you peel off at end of a night out at a place where people care about respecting others pronouns.

 

If you are so inclined, do you want or need any natural items or ingredients for spellwork that could be collected from forests, ocean, fields or stream?  I also have access to oak gall ink and various other esoteric substances. I now have a source >..> should I ever be super witchy instead of woo woo witchy

 

Are you a fan of the show Cobra Kai? I have not watched it

 

Do you enjoy any of the scented items from Victoria's Secret? I don't shop at VS

 

Would you be interested in receiving a silver locket with papyrus and herbs inside, as a protective amulet? yes although it is not something I would have sought out for myself.

So Witchee mine, are you a spellworker? - any interest  in acorns from a tree known as The Mother Oak at my Ren Fest grounds.  It is the biggest tree I've ever seen in MI.  It is cared for by tree scientists  from MSU.  It is the mom to every other oak on the grounds.   Saturday is Mabon & I will go & gather acorns before the park opens to patrons as I do each year.  But this time it's  actual Mabon.  So Witchee dearest, would you like some?  Yes please

 

Witchee, do you like anything from Lenny Mud?    I think I said no but there were a few cute yarn bowls that I noted.

From previous questions you've answered, I know a lot about the teas you'd like from specific places, but I want to know your more general tea preferences.   Black, green, white, rooibos, oolong, herbal?

      -  Japan is particularly big on their green tea and hojicha (roasted green tea), any interest? I do like green teas

      -  My partner has given me an extraordinary amount of rooibos from South Africa. It's amazing and I'd like to share, so would you like some? yes to rooibos

 

Actually I am good with most teas.  

 

despite being uk based I’m probably gonna have to make a torrid order because I fell in. Anything catch your eye while I’m doing it? I haven't peeked at Torrid.

How do you feel about nail wraps, like from Espionage Cosmetics?  They are having a tempting fall sale.  Anything catch your eye?  https://espionagecosmetics.com/collections/itsfallyall23 NO to nail wraps.

 

Is anyone into colouring in? Oh this one looked neat but I am sure I would be paralyzed worried I was doing it wrong.  Ack! Local artist

Since I'm starting to get ads for holiday shop stuff coming in, witchees who are winter holiday afficionados, are there any decorations, treats, etc. that you would be looking for?  My husband just brought home a pumpkin and we have cases and cases of Xmas stuff--he goes all out for the holidays and I do not.  HOWEVER I do have a couple the 2008 Hallmark Singing Snowman that he always tries to hide.  I love it and keep wanting to pick up more.  I thought I had another but I don't actually recall doing so--my husband finds them annoying so I might have skipped purchasing?  Last year was pretty sad Christmas wise TBH.
