I adore the Soviet Realism style...and speaking of art and arcitecture, nothing gets my blood going like Retro-Futurism/Atomic/Googie Art/buildings. That's sort of a leap in topics, but then again, that's me.

-I'm not planning on an order anytime soon.

 

Do you have any interest in rocks? Not like, polished colorful stones.. but like... rocks. With geologic significance!

-I'm quite the fan of geodes. And while rock with fossils and such is lovely, I grew up in an area where you could find them very easily, just off the ground. So they've lost a bit of luster for me. But shiny, sparkly is always good.

If your witch was the practical type and wanted to include one or more of your everyday essentials, what would those include? I'm talking about the bath products, lotions, face lotions, teas, food, etc that you really use every day.

-Aveda cleanser and moisturizer for sensitive skin, Eucerin Redness Relief Daily Perfecting Lotion SPF 15, Vitamin C serum, Morgana's Cryptoria and MAC lip balms and lipstick, Haunt and BPAL (and etsy folks) soaps, Aveda hand lotion, Morrocan Argan oil for my hair, Oscar Blande aerosol dry shampoo, Klorane Aersol dry shampoo, FX Wild Harvest Shampoo Hydra Curl, ditto for conditioner, Bumble and Bumble Creme de Coca Masque, Montagne Jeunesse masks all of them, Biore strips, Seche Vita nail polish top coat, Nailtek nail treatment, those nail polish remover pens from Sephora/Sally Hansen....I think that's it!

 

Jane Austen .. Yay or Nay?

-I do love Pride and Prejudice with Kiera Knightly...and Prid enad Prejudice and Zombies was a fun read. But that's about the extent of my love.

 

I put up quotes I love in my office and studio to get me going, They range from goofy to sarcastic to inspirational... Are you interested in a hand painted quote? Do you have one in mind, or a topic in mind?

-An art teacher once told me 'Destroy your precious'. Meaning, that journal that's too pretty to write in, write in it. That piece of fabric you're saving for something special, use it. That yarn you just can't bring yourself to use, unravel it and use it. That special china, that new dress, that necklace for only special occasions, use it, wear it, live it. Destroy your precious. When she told me that, I had a full on existential crisis, right there in the middle of class. I was fighting back tears. It was such a profound moment for me.

 

Do you like period or period-styled paraphernalia? Stuff like postcards, notecards, jewelry, office supplies, what-have-you?

-I'm quite a fan of Steampunk, which fits in nicely to the Victorian era, so to speak.

-No.

 

If you could choose a Smack, what would it have in it?

-Ooooo, the Bonfire Days smack is just about perfect. I just think I'd remove the vanilla and add Suede.

 

if you could have a salon scent made, based on any artwork(s) what would it be?

-Anne Brigman's photography. Hands down. I've never been more inspired by photography than with hers. My greatest wish is that one day she gets the recognition she has long deserved.

 

Are you scientifically curious and/or process-oriented? Would you like a project-type gift that allowed you do do something like make soap from scratch, take and (nontoxic-ly) develop photographs using a pinhole camera, use plant dyes on yarn or fabric, etc.?

-Oooo, that sounds awesome! I love crafts in all forms.

 

What's 'your' song/your theme song?

-Oh man, this is hard. Phenomena by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Don't Stop believin' by Journey. Three Little Birds by Bob Marley. Right where it belongs by Nine Inch Nails. Maps by the yeah yeah yeahs. That's all I can think of right now.

 

What would be your superpower?

-Time and space travel. So basically, I'd like to be Dr Who.

 

Witchee, would you like a gently used BPAL tshirt?

-Sure! I'm wear a mens L in Woot shirts, if that helps.

 

Do you like homemade snack mixes? I know Puppy Chow was mentioned in a previous question, but what about healthier and more natural type snacks like granola or trail mix? Give us your list of DO's and DON'Ts!

-Most of these are just full of sugar. So instead of making my witch learn to make something low-carb, it might just be best for me to say No.

 

Do you like charm bracelets? If you had a bracelet, what sort of charms would you want on it? Favorite hobbies, symbols, whatever?

-I do like them, but I hardly ever wear bracelets.

 

September 20th

 

Would you like any ecotools makeup brushes? They're kinda one of my favorite things ever, and they're animal-friendly and the handles are bamboo. And to top it all off, they work really well for applying makeup.

-I love them, and have just about every one they make. So no, I'm good.

 

Do you like Legos? Especially mini-fig key chains, Lego block keychains, small Lego sets, etc?

-I do like them, but not enough to have around. Maybe a small set for my desk at work?

 

What would you do if you found a $50 bill on the ground...Also, say they had free shipping. What would you get? And spend it all! Or as close to $50 as you can get.

-Bottles of Wanda, Bon Vivant and Squirting Cucumber.

 

Are there any characters that you love or identify with?

-Rose from Dr Who. And of course, The Doctor (Tennant) himself. Rose and the Doctor FOEVAH! I love Lizzy from Pride and Prejudice (2005) and Mr Darcy, natch. Starbuck/Kara Thrace from Battlestar Galactica...the ultimate badass.

 

A question! If you are crafty, what's your personal art style? I'm not talking just about what art you like to look at, but what kind of art do you like creating? Do you have a "process" while you're creating beauty?

-I stick primarily to jewelry and graphic journaling and collage. No real process, just when the mood strikes.

 

Are there any Arcana Weenies that you MUST HAVE?

-Dancing in the Boneyard, Edict of Worms, Ghost Pumpkin, Hobbedy’s Lantern, Ruby Crow, Sleepy Hollow. I've never tried any Arcana before, so I'd def. be interested in doing so.

 

So what say you? IS an "unexpected" visit/in-person witching OK?

-Oh wow...sure, maybe at the end of the round? As long as you aren't offended by a messy house, two dogs and two foster kittens.

 

September 19th

 

How do you feel about franken polish? Are you okay with all chemicals, or would you prefer 3 free? Would you want glitter or holographic glitter? What colors would interest you?

-I make frankens! So I'd love to get a franken from my witch! I'm down with whatever. I'd love to let my witches creativity roam free!

 

Dear witchee, how do you feel about lip balm? Favorite style (twist up tube, pot, tube with wand, etc.)? Favorite flavors? Flavors to avoid? Favorite brand? Do you need more right now or are you set? Are you one of those people who could never have enough lip balm even though you have a bowl on your dresser overflowing with them and 10 in your purse and an order for more on the way?

-yes please! Twist up tube, pumpkin, cheesecake, red currant, dessert flavors, blackberry, perhaps avoid absinthe or other such star anise/juniper tasting things. Brands...hmmmm. I'm a fan of most of the big Etsy lip e-tailers. I do like a good pumpkin lip balm, and went through a phase where I ordred a ton. Then I found Haunt's Pumpkin Cake lip lust. Heaven.

 

Would you be interested in getting fountain pen inks or art supplies via JetPens and or DickBlick? (I know I have a wishlist on JetPens and just love using fountain pens in my artwork)

-Yes to all the things!

 

For those interested in watercolors, how would you feel about getting a palette filled with paint from my watercolor tubes but not getting the paint tube itself? (kind of like this but without the covers for the compartments and bigger http://www.flickr.co.../in/photostream)

-That'd be lovely.

Darling Witchee, would you enjoy farmer's market pickled veggies (green beans, garlic, asparagus, etc) or fresh canned peaches or something of that nature?

-Abso-freakin'-loutely.

 

Do you prefer color or white photographs? Nature or abstract?

-This is hard, cause it depends on the photograph. I love architecture, graveyard and street sign photography, especially of New Orleans, Austin and Venice and I mostly prefer those in color.

 

would you be interested in something like this?

https://lostcrates.com/how-it-works
