Wish List:

cotton or wool yarns, soft ones, pretty ones, luxurient ones, lol

pretty much anything hand made or wahm made, even if you're not an expert (cause goodness knows I'm not, lol) as long as it's made with good intentions and love

giftable items for my kiddos (stocking stuffers would be great too), I love giving to them, and I don't get to do it as much as I'd like, so this is really for me more than for them, lol (3yo boy, 5yo girl, 6mo girl)

handmade goodies to snack on :p

A child friendly Nativity like Fisher Price or similar for my kids to use at Grandma's house. She collects them and she lets them play with her expensive ceramic ones. I'd rather they have thier own there that is ok to play with. Baby Jesus must be able to come out of the manger though, that's my dd's favorite part, lol. Simple, rustic, handmade, it's all fine as long as it's not easily breakable. Wood would be swell, or Fimo clay.

silly stuff that you spot in a store that makes you laugh, like bumper stickers or little plaques or goofy figurines, whimsical stuff

anything pentacle, goddess, horned god, pagan-y.

breastfeeding advocacy tee for my littlest dd (12m size) or for me (XL)

~jo

looks good, thanks mamas!! :happy:

me too!! I'll get a list together later. I'm pretty open, just no nut things!:)

Add me. :) I have an overly long iso in my sig, and I'll come back an edit this later

Edit to add more info:

Ok, me, hmmm. :p My favorite color is orange. I like copper tones and bronzes and burnt rust and other deep earth tones, and then I like rainbows. :) My kitchen is decorated in bright splashes of colors, prism suncatchers and crystals, and silly vegetable art. I spend most of my time in the kitchen since that's where my crafting space is and that's where I sew. I love to cook and collect odd, old, and offbeat metal cookie cutters. I listen to all kinds of music and dd and I like to dance to world rhythms, Sarah Mclachlan, Sarah Brightman, Tori Amos, KD Lang, They Might Be Giants, German and Italian opera, musicals, folk, and well, anything danceable :) Mixes are just great.
I'm just getting into bellydance and have been into historical recreation for years (Renaissance rather than mountain man style)
I love my bathtub (I'm not really a land mammal) and think wahm bath bombs, soaps, lotions, etc are a little bit of heaven. My favorite scents are deep and earthy and spicy like sandlewood, amber, clove, and patchouli, but I also love green smells, and citrus.
Funky stuff for my hair is always appreciated. Hairsticks, hair jewels, barrettes, combs, hairsilks, etc are all fabulous. My hair is really thick and straight and is about halfway to my waist.
I'm a reader and adore books both fiction and non-fiction, especially well researched historical fiction. I'm a sucker for a good poet too.
Pagan and goddess themed stuff for my house would be lovely. I love peacocks and Venus of Willendorf/ancient mother things particularly.
I'm pretty easy other than the fact that I'm REALLY not into country or pastels. My style is more kinda Goth/Ren with a whole lotta tie dye thrown in rofl.

Other than that, I'm trying to make much needed lifestyle/eating habit changes, so treats aren't the best idea but I'll make an exception for really good dark chocolate or incredible bread (I can't resist dark rye)

What the heck....been here almost 6 years....time to get involved!!! :)

Gotta think about my likes!! I'll let you know!!

My Wishes:

Well, I'm pretty easy, but I'll give you a list to help!! :)

~Starbucks gc
~music...stuff that tells a story that is kind-of folky. Like Sarah McLaughlan, Sheryl Crow, Anna Nalick, etc...
~stud earrings in birthstone colors ( I have purple and light green).
~flannel pj bottoms (size med or large...wear size 8 jeans).
~cool coffee mug
~crockpot recipes
~wham soaps (don't like rose or strong floral scents).
~Handmade pillow cases for the kids (no tv characters pls)
~Handmade napkins
~earthy things...I love fall colors
~rice pack that you can use for a heating pad
~milk chocolate
~blank notecards

Dislikes:
~white chocolate

I would like to join. My likes are; yummy coffee and teas, spice scented candles, windchimes or bells, wahm made soaps( not floral scents please alergic), CHOCOLATE, any non religous winter decor. :happy:

hey mama, i'd really like to stick the the guidelines & you must be a member for at least 6m to join this swap. not being harsh, nothing personal , just trying to stick to the way it has been done. you are the 2nd person i have said no to for this, so please, don't be offended :) eventhough i am sure jo can vouch for you...LOL ;) imo it just wouldn't be fair.

i suggested to the other mama, that perhaps she start a holiday swap for the newer amity mamas who would like to join ~

off to check my PM box, i haven't gotten any full notifications at all & randomly am receiving PMs..strange.

no problem sticking by the guidelines Nic- but just so everyone knows why she is here all of a sudden- Gaga is my mom :heart:

~jo

sorry jo....lol :) it does seem weird to say no to her & i am *sure* she is VERY swapworthy LOL... but i had already told a new mama no & well.... exceptions, exceptions...they start to get tricky. thanks for understanding. and i hope you do to gaga :big hug:

how fun to have your mom here :happy:

I'm going to have to not do this as I'm concerned about being assigned instead of sending choices I'll get matched with a mama with things on her list I'd have a hard time filling.

Have fun, though.

Have fun, though.

we will, thank you~!~!~

eta : i see what you mean..instead of you picking who you *can* send to, gotcha. my kids will draw names to decide who send to who(m)? LOL~ just like any other swap except this one is a secret ;)

I am in :)

My likes:
Things with sunflowers or suns
Candles (sage & citrus, coffee, autumn or winter holiday scents)
Beaded candle holders
Nag Champa
Patchouil, amber, or sandalwood scented soaps, lotions, candles
Dark roast coffee (sumatra, mmm...)
A nice pottery coffee mug
Beaded earrings
Items with "Starry Night" print
Homemade cds would be nice (like reggae, zydeco, blues, jam bands)

Hope

checking my joining amity date. there must be an easier way than this?

i would really love to do this. i was looking for a secret santa type thingy! i dont have any feedback here but i have positive at another "ahem" mothering board. is that okay?

i'll send you my info anyway - if you don't think so then that's okay!

i'll post my likes tomorrow!

why is this turning out to be this way...LOL ~ the point is to have + feedback as a member here, kwim? so that people know you & are familiar w/ you & feel safe that you will follow thru as a member of this community.

you have been here 6m, but if you have no transactions here, personally *i* think that is just as important as the 6m membership.

i'm sorry :eyes: ugh, i hate being the bad guy.

Not the bad guy nic- the guidelines were made for a reason and they do work... there will be more swaps down the line for newer members to join :) Welcome to all of you by the way!

~jo

okay, I'm in :)

I would love:
celestial or pagan tart burners
ankle length strippy skirt - could provide measurements
a soft, pretty sweater - size 14/large
fleece socks for me
flannel jammie pants for me - I've got short legs, so I would probably need something mama made, and could provide measurements if need be for that too.
needle felting supplies and instructions (never tried it but love that stuff!)
anything goddessy/pagan/celtic oriented
anything mermaid for Leila
books off Lindsey's or Joshua's amazon wishlist (Lindsey or Joshua Pilcher - Georgia)
gift cards to yankee candle, joanne's, target or starbucks
my favorite colors are blues/greens/purples/burgundy/pumpkin
a diaper bag that doesn't look like a diaper bag - I'd love something in any of the above colors.. nothing too bright, I prefer to not stand out in a crowd, I'd rather blend in. :)

Things we can't/won't use:
anything with strawberries, nuts or nut flavorings, dairy products, white or milk chocolate.

closing this tomorrow.....have gotten some shipping addys form mamas, please remeber to send me yours :) i hope to be able to draw name & send info out this weekend. :happy:

no problem. but how do you get feedback from general swaps? i've been involved in some craft swaps - i've done the spring tiny things swap - the fall nature table swap and now i'm in 3 more for thanksgiving and winter. i've also bought things from mamas here. should i ask them for feedback too?

search all of her posts for any other iso's or something she is making or whatever. thats what i did.

:happy:

i just realized when i sent my package i didnt send a card so the only way you are going to know who it is from is if you read my name on the address label.

but i guess that is part of this being secret santa. are we supposed to reveal the secret anyway?

i havent received mine yet....................

Tonya ~ was that you that sent me my gifts? OMG ~ I got it this morning and just literally bursted out in tears! You got me what I wanted (I love the wallet, it is PERFECT for me and matches my personality!) and more! During the most difficult time in my life, your package brought a huge smile to my face ~ thank you, thank you! I am wearing the necklace you made me right now and I just love it! I can feel positive energy coming from you! The socks ooohhhh... so plushy!! I will wear it this afternoon when I go out with my kids ~

*wiping tears from my eyes* Thank you mama ~ you brightened up my morning already! Thank you!!!

oh yes! i was indeed surprised! i was dropping by her place to give her some necklaces i made & pick up a fabulous diaper bag she made for me when she said "tonya i'm your secret santa" & i must have had such a puzzled look on my face & she said "on amity's" & i my jaw just dropped. she presented me with a nice basket of all the goodies i asked for!! coffees, chocolate & a honey dew candle. i just love it!!

Oops. I forgot to out myself jody. I had you for both exchanges and I'd hoped there was enough in the box I sent to cover both. And yes, I crocheted the dishcloths.

My package went out today, so don't give up hope yet secret sister.

~jo

I got mine on Saturday-- and it is AMAZING!!!!!!! Just perfect. I got a fabulous wemoon calandar/appointment book. I'm not at all organized but really want to be and this is so cool (and lunar) and perfect for me. I also got 2 amazing cd's Van Leer Rose and some persian violin and percussion which is just AH! Then some candles including a chakra balancing candle. I used it for meditation yesterday and had a pretty incredible emotional experience. Dh was here to help and it was a very good thing to have happen-- thank you Randah.

I'm nervous because my mama was supposed to get it on Friday (it showed on USPS site as delivered on Friday) but I didn't see her post... I hope she got it! :eyes:

thanks dina!!!!! did your dh make the votive holder? LOVE it :) necklace is gorgeos!!!

thanks mama!!

lol! too funny!!~

I got mine and it was great! I needed some new little earrings. And some day this Christmas break when dh is home I am taking a relaxing lavendar bath!

I can't remember who sent it though, sorry, packaging got tossed.

But even the little ribbons you used to wrap up the presents where used by my boys as leashes for their little animals.... funny the things kids get excited for !

But even the little ribbons you used to wrap up the presents where used by my boys as leashes for their little animals.... funny the things kids get excited for !

Tawnya

That was from me. I am glad you liked it! And the boys too. LOL. The earings were made by starkisses.

I did not find a name on the package so I don't know who to thank, but whoever you are THANK YOU!!!:)

Some yummy dark chocolate, amazing organic wool socks, a lovely bag, some beeswax tapers I'm saving for birth++ it was just great. Thank you sooo much mama!!!!
