Are there any GC scents that you love, but for whatever reason, you keep putting off buying bottles of?

TKO would be the main one. Also O, Siren, Dragon's Milk, Snake Oil, Belle Epoque, Veil, How Doth the Little Croccodile

10/30/13:

Do you want to be an early accepter or would you prefer your reveal later in the swap, say maybe closer to the deadline?

Whatever works best for you

10/29/13:

Is there anything you would like from the Blooddrop Halloween update? Never tried them. After looking, these sound interesting:

Chocolate-covered Apple Cider Doughnut, Vanilla Musk, Apples & Bones, Madame Claire de la Lune's Quince Cider & Honey Beer, A Coffin Built for Two, Autumn Delights, Enchanted Orchard, Harcakes, Devil Girl, Vixen, Wolf, Chai Tea, Curse, Vanilla & Ginger Apple, Mulled Cider, Pomegranate & Darkened Honey, Cider & Honey Softening Soak

Do you prefer to receive whole coffee beans or ground? Not into coffee, thanks(although I love the scent)

How do you feel about robots? some are cute or cool

10/28/13:

Are you interested in anything from the Haus of Gloi yule update on November 3rd? Which products and which scents?

Uhm, don't know. Their Bubbling scrubs sound nice. Honey Tree, Lavender Sugar, Vice, Satyr, depravity, elevenses, Twice is nice

If I made fairy, dragon or butterfly wing earrings, would you wear them? If so, which would you prefer? OH! I'd love ANYTHING like that - but especially dragon or butterfly.

10/27/13:

How do you feel about nail polish? If you like it, are there any brands or colors in which you are interested?

**sigh** I am a chronic nail biter. I'll go thru phases where I think I've broken the habit & then BOOM I'm reading and suddenly realize I've bitten a nail all the way down. If you know of anything that might help with that, it would be awesome!

What about makeup? What brands do you prefer and which products would you most enjoy receiving? I use a lot of Lumiere Mineral stuff, but any brand/samples you have would be cool. Mainly lip colors (looking for my perfect red)and blush right now. ALSO mascara (dark brown) that is very good for sensitive eyes/contacts and/or doesn't run or get rubbed onto your face very easily.

10/26/13:

Your feelings on Adagio teas: If you've never had anything from them, would you be open to trying them? If you HAVE had them and like them, name some favorites blends. Just tried a few - no favorites so far but anything with chai, apple, or chocolate or that is geek themed would be awesome

Do you like video games? not really

Have you ever tried anything from Paintbox Soapworks? LOVE THEM! Really want to try some bath struesel - mandinka or any scent with lavender, vanilla, or

Do you like/have space to garden? If so, what do you grow? In theory, yes & I'd like to try to some this coming spring - veggies (but not peppers) lavender, snap dragons . . . ?

Gift cards/vouchers - yay or nay? If you like them - which stores would you like one for? Oh yes! Any place that you find mentioned on any of my lists or blogs or any interesting place that maybe I haven't heard of & you think I might like.

Seen anything lately that makes you go OH HOLY FUCK THAT'S AWESOME!! ? hmmmm nothing under the price cap comes to mind

Name five small things you could use, but might not think to get for yourself? Good hand cream & lip balm, Auburn/Dark Cherry hair color, a good face mask treatment, really neat book markers

Is there anything from a farmer's market you might like? Oh God Yes! Jams, jellies, preserves, teas, sweets, spices . . . and all sorts of fruits and veggies. Not sure what would mail well, though.

10/25/13:

Do you have any upcoming away time I should be aware of, for shipping purposes? Nope

Would you like anything from Sock Dreams? Where is the drool emoticon? Anything over the knee and/or sock slipperish is bound to be adored forever

10/24/13:

Is there anything in the Miskatonic Valley Philharmonic update that you're interested in? I love the theme!

Csardas Macabre

Marche Funebre (Max I)

Und Wir Dachten Der Toten

Totenanz

Is there anything my mom's etsy shop that you're interested in? Bags are always great ideas for me - I especially like the snowflake one & the dragonfly one. Also love the "chainmail" and the werewolf hats

10/23/13:

Are you okay with semi-spicy foods right now? I'm thinking like curry or chipotle? If you were to choose a chili powder would you go Hot, Medium, or Mild? Chili and curry are great for me as long as they are MILD

If you were this mystery witch's witchee, would you be interested in Spoonfudge (http://www.spoonfudge.com/) or any other such "ordered online" sweet? I drool for spoonfudge!

Also - Double checking everyone's baked goods status. Home-made baked goods or other food stuffs OK? PLEASE

Is there anything you'd like from Lush, witchee? bath bombs are awesome. I'll add a few Lush things to my amazon/universal list.

If you like earrings, what kind? Dangly earrings, hoops, studs - what kind do you like? How long do you like your necklaces? Or would you prefer to just get a pendent, so you can size the chain yourself? I love dangly, but my one year old would love to grab them a bit much! Either small and hardy, or go for the dangle & funky and I'll start wearing them in about 6 months

If I were your witch and were to paint you something, what would you absolutely love, what would you feel ambivalent toward, and what would you not like to see or receive?

I love nature scenes, fantasy scenes . . . uhm my etsy list would give some idea of what I like. If you need more info, e-mail (or ask via SwitchWitch) and I'll be happy to help.

10/21/13:

Are there any craft project/s you are working on now that you need supplies for? Or rather, is there a craft project you've been wanting to do but need stuff to start?

Time and lack of interruptions would be the main reasons I have made so little headway on my planned and/or dreamed projects However, any wooden DPN's size 9 or bigger would rock my knitting world.

What do you think of hair sticks? Would you like a set? Love 'em, but these days my hair is neither long enough nor think enough to use them.

Is there anything you'd really like to have/try from Trader Joe's, or any other popular-but-not-available-everywhere store? I once got a chocolate/coffee/sugar grinder thing from them that I loved, but I haven't been able to find lately. Also - way too big a fan of their "Lacey's" cookies - esp one with dark chocolate.

Would you rather have something fun or practical? Either one would make my day.

Witchee, would you like a set of Cards Against Humanity? ? not sure what this is

10/20/13:

Table Games - do you play them? If so, which ones, and which versions, and are there any goodies you might like related to them? We do occasionally play & I have a few things mentioned in my amazon list

Witchee, are you in need of any particular spices?

not "need" but anything that you think I might find interesting will likely be very fun to experiment with!

10/19/13:

Say your witch works at a used bookstore. what kinds of things might you like from there? cool old pulp fiction paperbacks? tarot cards? (we have those.) a dr who pen? books about haunted cemeteries in seattle? you may have all of these things:) oh, and also movies. and cds. All things Dr Who will be loved. I also enjoy "Real" haunting stories. Also, many books, CD's & movies on my amazon list.

Witchee, the Haunt Halloween update goes live tomorrow! When it does, please post right away and let me know your dreams and wishes! I have yet to try any of their stuff. If you got something that you think I might like, feel free to decant half an imp's worth

I've got some canned goods put up -- mostly jams/jellies, some apple butter, some applesauce. Want some? If so, what kind(s)? You are making me hungry! All things apple, cranberry, blackberry, raspberry, dark and/or sour cherry and just about anything other than peppers

How feel you about lip balms, glosses, and lipsticks? Any particular favourite scents/flavours? Any favourite makers/sellers? I have very recently decided I'd like to try to find a dark red or reddish purple that works for me.

Since wishlist links never seem to work in forum mail, won't you please re-post your wishlist links here, so they're readable?

Are you a fan of anything that you would like a tshirt of? If so, what size would you wear [/b] There are several examples on my amazon list. Dr. Who, the BBC Sherlock, Serenity/Firefly and a whole bunch more. And I love size L T's (NOT babydoll!)

Not usually a fan of pumpkin flavored/scented things

Halloween Candy, Decorations, and Costume supplies - What kind are your idea of FUN and which ones would you thoroughly dislike? Dark chocolate is my idea of great candy If you find some child-appropriate Halloween lights, that might be cool for decorations, or anything home-made that's child-friendly. As for costume-bits wigs, wings, capes, half-masks or "domino" style masks are all good for me & the rest of the family. (well, probably not wings or wigs for the Hubs. And the oldest girl also loves crowns/tiaras)

What traditions to you partake in for Halloween? We all dress up in costume to varying degrees. We pass out treats, take the kids trick-or-treating, then take 'em to see the grandparents & show off their costumes. I like to play "Spooky" classical music and/or the Mannheim Steamroller Halloween CD's (all of which are from the library, by the way. I've never gotten around to spending money on buying them)

Hey, Witchee, it's getting cold. Socks, scarves, hats or arm warmers? OOOOOOOOOO it's all good to me! You can see some of the stuff I like on etsy. Feel free to ask me some specific Q's on style or color if you want.
