12 days of christmas 2016
Can I make you a scarf/cowl/sweater/lap blanket to keep you wintery-warm!?
Most yarny things are too hot for me to wear. A hat or fingerless gloves/mittens will be nice though! But please no itchy yarn.
How do you feel about amigurumi (i.e. little crochet toys), either characters from a fandom, wee animals, or as decorations?
Yes!
Do you like to receive plants or gardening stuff? Do you grow plants? What's your favourite flower, if you have one?
no sorry. Plants will probably die in here. Because I forget to water them, but also because my cats like to eat them.
How do you feel about knit socks? (Plain stockinette, lacework, cables, etc). Are there any other hand knit items you'd especially like? (Mittens, fingerless gloves, hats, etc).
I'm not interested in handknitted socks, but I love fingerless gloves/mittens or a nice hat.
What kind of snacks do you like? Does dried fruit or crunchy dried vegetables sound appealing? Do you like (raw) honey? Jerky? Jam? What sort of local products do you like to receive as gifts? If you're familiar with products in the Pacific Northwest, is there anything specific you'd like to try?
No jerky (I'm a vegetarian) but yes to all the others.
What kind of snacks do you like?
what not? chocolate, nuts, all sort of savory snacks. As long as it's vegetarian.
What sort of dollar store items do you always get a kick out of?
I love dollar stores! But there isn't something in particular I'd like to buy there.
If there's one place you could go in the world, where and why?
One place only??? Noooo not possible. Places I've never been that I'd like to travel to: New Sealand, Iceland, Australia, India (to see Tigers in the wild!), Sumatra (also because of the tigers there, but also Orangutans!).
Places I've already been to that I love most: Costa Rica (nature and animals!), Thailand, Vietnam, Norway.
If you had a custom perfume/beauty/bath product made for you, what would it be and what would the scent description look like?
That'd not easy! Patchouli blueberry maybe...
If you could commission an art piece, would you choose traditional or digital artwork- and what would it be of?
Traditional artwork. I love Kingfishers so a Kingfisher painting or figurine would be awesome.
When it comes to makeup, what is your coloring? Fair, dark? Sensitive skin? Eye color? Hair color? Style....funky, natural? Any additional makeup info:
I have a light skin. My hair is brown most of the time, though at the moment it's dark reddish/purple. It's an a-symmertrical bobline that's too short for any accessories. I have blue eyes.

Do you have a wood-burning fireplace or fire pit, and if so would you like handmade firestarters or scenting bundles to throw on it? (think bundles of apple wood chips and cinnamon bark, or little wax/herb/paper bundles with a wick)
No, don't have that
What animals do you think are considered cute? Kingfishers, cats, dogs, gecko's, foxes, chameleons, owls, tigers, lions, birds of all sorts, polar bears. But I actually like all animals...
If you have a Goodreads "to read" list, are those mostly books that you do not have and would like copies of, or are those mostly books that you already have piled on your shelves/lurking in your e-reader?

Do you like to receive plants or gardening stuff? Do you grow plants? What's your favourite flower, if you have one? No thank you
Favourite flowers to sniff: I'm not that much into flowers scents. But I do like the smell of rose and lavender.
Thinking about your package arriving and unwrapping, would you prefer more foody items or more non-foody things?
Whatever my snow angel decides!
Name a handful of things you would LOVE to see in your 12 Days gifts!
I like receiving things that aren't available here. Local snacks or candy. Or other things that I just can't get over here. Other than that: I trust my snow angel will make this swap awesome! So I trust everything you choose to give me will be the best!
If I were go get my shit together to actually bake before December 7, would you have any interest in fruitcake?
Sure! If it survives shipping...
If I were still feeling the alcoholic spirit and decided to make boozy chocolate balls of some sort, do you have a preference for bourbon, rum or Irish whiskey?
Nope please don't. I'm not that much into booze anyway, but I hate chocolate combined with it.
