Wish list time! (updated August 2009)

[hallavaris]

Things I´d need or want or desire (not all of these are entirely practical or reasonable, but I´m writing them down just for my own fun if nothing else):

My Wish list:

* nice & good quality paper (colourful & inspiring, good quality paper I can use for art & crafts; all colours are cool but I especially need pastels & light colours for printing pictures on them), card stock, water colour paper, scrap booking paper (no cutesy or funky patterns).. I like all colours but especially red-orange-burgundy-brown-yellow and blue-green-turquoise and violet-lilac-wine.. and different shades of grey.

* Mon Cheri chocolates or Anthon Berg Plum in Madeira marzipan.. mmmmm...

*bamboo mats for making sushi

*Tiny round brads in all colours!!! And those diamond brads.. any kind of brads actually (but I prefer the tiny round ones) ribbons, lace, silk leaves & tree leaf shaped decorations (for art & crafts) feathers, beads, ephemera etc. materials for crafting. All colours are great!

*religious icons, pictures, cards, bookmarks or anything at all with religions theme. Any religion is ok but I like the Madonna & child & Jesus pictures quite much as well as Buddha pictures & Hindu Gods..(Kitch is not so bad here but I prefer the items to be something I can use in my art.. so no decorative objects like statues unless they are really lovely)

*vintage photos & beautiful glass beads for my crafts

*spices, mixed spices & organic/ecological food & kitchen stuff, delicious things for cooking..

*natural, herbal bath & skin products... anything that smells fruity & wonderful! L'Occitane (especially lemon & honey body lotion!), LUSH (Karma, fruity things..), The Body Shop (fruity things), Weleda, Frantsila etc...

* perfume stuff (=love) I'd love to have a pomegranate perfume! Or Cranberry perfume.. mmm...(I like all fruit & berry scents as well as flowers like rose, jasmine, honeysuckle or fresh scents like mint, cedar, fir or pine)

*gift card to music (CD), book, crafts, eco or cosmetics/bath products store

*Books. Pagan, Shamanism, spiritual, self help, magical children & youth books, good, inspiring fiction & poetry.. (See my Amazon wish list: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/registry/wishlist/ref=sv_w_h__0)

* 18th century men's clothes (knee-pants, jacket, lace shirt & hat)

*seam sewing machine

*books; poetry or "magical" fiction or children's/youth books or any inspiring, beautifully written books, soulful self help books, books about sufism, buddhism, shamanism, paganism..

*compilation CD's with your favourite music

*umeshu (japanese plum wine)

*tickets to cinema to see some interesting films

*unused Finnish stamps so I can keep sending letters & mail art goodies

*dinner invitations (to your place or a restaurant) ;)

*100% essential oils (aromatherapy oils: eleni, lemongrass, neroli, nardus, ginger..)

*weird & pretty accessories, jewelry, hats, clothes..

Grey, black, white (both natural & bright), blueish grey, all autumnal shades, dark/blueish shades of green, turquoise, petrol, purple, orange, ruby & dark red, fuschia, indigo, deep blue..


I like these scents: black tea & green tea, True star perfume, mango, papaya, citrus fruits, resin, bentzoe, elder flower, rain/water, any fruits, berries, herbs, citrus, forest etc.

Scents: spicy, stinging scents, too ickly sweet

Did you liked the jasmine things i posted for you?
Omziin is again now in Tunisia ans i thought if you want some jamine things i could ask her to bring!

I reconize, that i can't use a jasmine perfum or be near jasmine flowers, cause it makes me bit sick.

[tindomerel.livejournal.com]

Oh yes, I surely love all the jasmine things you sent me. I wonder if this scented oil can be used as perfume or is it only for aroma products?

[spilling-words.livejournal.com]

It is real perfume! You can use it like a perfume or make a little lighter with oil. I think the perfume was a stronger than usually.
I bought it from some big cosmetic store.

My sister told that even in Tunisia jasmine oil cost much.

[tindomerel.livejournal.com]

Oh good to know it's a perfume. :) Yay!

[jademondin.livejournal.com]

i am not johanna, but i would like to have one of those jasmine soap bars again. you once gave one to me and i used it frequently but lost it in summer at yogafestival :-(

[spilling-words.livejournal.com]

My father is now in Tunisia. So I will say to my sister that she will buy some :)
Did I send a vanilla for you last time or was it jasmine?

[jademondin.livejournal.com]

18th century men's clothes

Made me think immediately very Dickensy London, which then remind me to ask have you ever read any books of Sarah Waters?
If not, you should. I think you would like them :)

[tindomerel.livejournal.com]

I haven't read them yet but I got two from the library last week and I've seen Affinity as a film version earlier this autumn. :)
