2014 Ornament Swap - all done!

[xeevee]

Icecreamgirl, you might want to check with the post office if you are allowed to ship Christmas crackers.  They have gunpowder in them, so it may be a no-no.

It seems to be ok as long as they are sealed in their packaging and not loose! I'm not even sure that tree crackers have a snap as they are miniatures for decoration, but will double check

Do you like tree crackers? The ones that go bang not the ones you eat!
I love them but no thank you.

Are glittery ornaments ok? Also how much glitter?
Definitely!! The more glitter the better! As long as it's fine and good quality glitter though - and done tastefully.

What kind of chocolate do you each specifically like? Dark, white, milk, etc? Do you like hot chocolate?
I'm not a massive fan of chocolate but I do like mint with milk chocolate. I also like mint hot chocolate.

Does anyone like mint (white or green) or peppermint (red and white) candy? Which do you perfer and do you like it with chocolate?
I don't have a preference because I just LOVE mint in all forms
Probably not with chocolate though because artificial candy chocolate flavours don't agree with me. No gelatine either please.

No thank you

Do you like christmas socks/ fuzzy socks as an extra?
I don't mind Christmas/winter themed socks, I also don't mind fuzzy socks

Do you like stickers?
Of course, who doesn't?

Coffee, tea, hot chocolate... What do you like and dislike?
I enjoy tea and hot chocolate. I'm pretty open to just about any flavoured teas and for hot chocolate I like flavours similar to milk, mint, orange mint and toffee.

Do you mind any art as extras? Do you have any favorite ponies/ponysona?

Regarding hot drinks, what devices do you have for making them (tea pot, tea infuser, kurig coffee machine)?
We have a kettle

Do you have fur babies? If so would you like an ornament or extra for them?
Yes I have 2 young cats, Shadow (girl) and Luna (boy).

If you have multiple fur babies do you have one in particular that is your <3 baby you would like something related to?
Since we only have 2 of them, they are both favourites but for different reasons. Shadow is very mellow and laid back, she kinda keeps to herself. Luna on the other hand is the opposite, loud, rambunctious and always under your feet. A cat toy or treat would be welcome

Partner, can you name some small things you typically like to receive as extras so I can get an idea of your likes? Ex: stickers, candy, jewelry, pens, lotion, etc?
Sure, I love lotion, lip balm, candles, pens, bracelets, stud earrings, stickers, jerky, goodies not available in Canada (ginger spice/pumpkin pie m&m's, hostess mini muffins), fabric as well as ribbons and lace for making doll clothes, doll outifts (that fit MH/EAH/YOSD BJD)

Do you like scented holiday candles?
I love scented candles, especially apple cinnamon, cinnamon bun, black cherry, gingerbread etc

Do you like gingerbread men? (The designs, cookie, or scent)
I love the way they smell, the way they look and I especially love to nibble on them if there softer gingerbread

Do you like Rudolf the Red-Nose Reindeer, Frosty, or Santa??
I like Frosty and vintage/Victorian styled Santa's

A pink, cute, but maybe a tad childish one, or one in black and white but with an interesting comic strip?
I'm going to say whichever one you choose
