Dinobabe, I just recieved my box of halloween goodies. I love the towels with the bats on them, they actually match my leather faire mug. the hand towels with ghost, The hankerchief with the celtic knot and the hat & scarf that match my faire outfit perfectly great for the cold weather get togethers I go to. Everything is wonderful. Thank you so much.

The scarf and hat match your garb!?  How cool!  I picked the colors because I want to make a set for me and I thought they were great fall colors.  How funny! :D  I'm glad you like everything! :-*

You're quite welcome. I hope you like the scents. The wax will liquify when it is on the warming plate and when that happens you can remove the wick if you choose.... if you don't like burning them or if you aren't allowed to have flames where you use them (dorm rooms or work or such).

Thank you Wildthingjew!!  I love the scarf.  It is a beautiful color of orange and will go with my bellydance/gypsy outfit perfectly! :-*

Ironically, I have recently begun to buy this style of scarf and have three (four with yours!).

So all of the packages should have been sent this week.  Please let me know if you do not receive something in the next couple of days.  I know a few people had to send out after the deadline, which is just fine.  And if you did receive your gift(s) please make a point to thank your gifter either privately or in the post (which we all prefer so we know what cool goodies you received!). ;D

Wow!! I just got home for the holidays today after a tough semester and a grueling finals week, only to come home to find 2 packages and a letter. I opened one first and it was a beautiful necklace Rani Zemirah made that was commissioned by dbaldock! I love it so much, it's gorgeous and I know I'll wear it to faire and with everyday outfits all the time :)

So, I open the second, confused because I thought I had already gotten my gift exchange, the necklace, and the first thing I pull out was a renbabes calendar! It's so awesome, I saw a post about it a while ago and I'm not usually a calendar type person, but I thought to myself "this is THE calendar for me" and look at that, now I have one! Not only that, but dbaldock got it signed by almost every girl featured ;D Most awesome thing ever.

There was also a CD by Circa Palea which I have never heard but I've read good things about and I am excited to listen to them. You can never have too many faire CDs I think. And last but not least, I got a book about the Norman Conquest, which I shall start reading very soon, I just finished a course on Medieval History in Europe. The letter was a Christmas card from Lady Everclear with some amazing photos of her in garb along with a cute little favor pin. So thank you very much to dbaldock for all of my gifts and for commissioning the beautiful necklace by Rani Zemirah, and the Christmas card from Lady Everclear. It was very nice to come home from a long day of travel to some great stuff from great people :)

Sent mine out today!  :)
Had to make fudge to go with it.   ;D
And is it ever yummy!!!  :D

When I got home from eating dinner this afternoon, I checked the mailbox - and there was a PACKAGE!

Thank you so much for the gifts ... the delicious smelling Fudge, the 365 Day New York Times Crossword Puzzle Calendar, the Pin, and the pretty Currier & Ives print Holiday Card.


I certainly wish you a Happy & Healthy Holiday Season, as well.


Take Care,

Shanon "Delireus",

I'm really glad you liked the gifts I picked out for you, and especially the necklace that Rani made (she posted a few pictures of it in her Facebook photo album, and it looks nice).

Hope you have a Safe & Happy Holiday Season at home in Houston with your family.


Take Care,
