1.how would you describe your personal style? Eclectic, feminine, bright

2.when you look around at the things you own,
is there a picky/specific or eclectic mix? Everything is pretty eclectic. As long as I can tie it in somehow I'll love it.

3.is there a particular time period in history that interests you? Hmm...not in a big way, but I always think the styles of the 20s-30s are really neat.

4.please list the total amount of animals in your home
(include all animals except husbands and children) 2. 1 cat for each roommate.

5.do you prefer things that can be hung on a wall, or things that
can be displayed on a shelf/mantle/etc or something edible? I prefer ALL of it!


6. what is something you always get too much of during the holidays? Hmmm...journals. I mean how many can I really be keeping at once? hehe

7. what is something you wish you got more of during the holidays?
(or anytime) I always want more clothes, accessories, and artwork! My size is a small in everything, 2 if a number is needed.


Good questions Maegan!

I think I'll join this post because I don't know a thing about the person I got, so I'd like to give whoever got me the opportunity for some ideas. Let's see..... Sluggo and Pandora love toys - feather toys! And those little pompom people that bat around nice and easy. Pandora is always in need of a new collar, she seems to ditch them around the house somehow. She's an 8"-9" neck. Sluggo doesn't do collars. His long persian fur is just too much for them. My house is decorated in a country style. I always enjoy wall hangings to decorate with. Chickens are the main theme running throughout my house. Kitty things too of course! We, me & the cats, are pretty easy to please. We just like surprises!!!

I have a rather silly question, since this is my first year doing this....do we sign the card with the gift, or does the recipient have to guess who we are?

Ok, first I want to sincerely thank whoever started this thread (after going through 11 pages I forgot!!
) Second, I'm only going to answer the questions that I can actually come up with a like to cut down on using up a whole page for one post
So here goes:
-What are things that you need in your home, you know, for final touches??? Paintings? Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m far too picky about the stuff that goes on the walls so this would probably be a bad idea for me.
-Candles? LOOOVE candles of all types
-What is kitties favorite toy that keeps getting destroyed because he/she plays with it so much?
-What are your favorite scents: Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m obsessed with Cotton Blossom from Bath & Body Works, but I love most of their other fragrances as well!
and what totally turns you off: musky, vanilla, anything really really strong (it kills my sinuses)
-How do you pamper yourself at home for 'me' time? Me time??? Whatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s that???
-What things can you never get enough of because you use them up so fast? Cotton Blossom Creamy body wash, metal free pony tail holders (Max keeps stealing and losing them)
-If it gets cold where you live, how do you keep warm when you go outside? It is impossible for me to get warm if itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s cold outside (I have no meat)
Do you wear hats or scarves? neither
Okay, lets say I'm crafty and can make you a scarf (if you wear them).... what colors in yarn would you want?? see above
Do you like any outdoor winter sports? (Ski... etc.) HAHAAH- If it snows in Columbus the whole town shuts down, let alone participates in winter sports… HAAHAHAHA
Anyone else collect things from different areas? Would like to start, but not real sure of a specific item
Like to cook? or hate to cook? Like to, but donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t really have time to
Butter and cream? or low fat? Butter
Sweets? or savouries? Umm, whatâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s a savouries??? Love sweets (like gummy bears, twizzlers that sort of thing)\t
Any particular treat/food you can't get enough of? Real honest to God German pancakes like my Omi used to make, meringue cookies (the white ones),
Favourite types of clothing accessory?- SHOES (Does that count??)
Dress style/favourite outfit?! I would have to say feminine-preppy (ie New York & Co type stuff)
Pierced ears or not? Pierced ears, tongue, belly button
Favorite colour? Donâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t really have one, I like really loud colors (bright yellows and greens and oranges)
Favourite scent? Cotton Blossom from Bed Bath & Beyond
What do you think of getting something that's used, but is still in really good condition? Most definitely
Do you like to travel? Love too, when I can afford it
Do you enjoy art from other cultures? Depends, Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m really picky about stuff like that.
Food? Again, it depends… I was brought up on German food by my Omi
Would you like a homemade gift?? Sure!!
Do you prefer old fashioned things or modern things? I like both
Have you got enough Cats or would that be on your wish list JK—If my boyfried would allow it!!
1.how would you describe your personal style? Comfortable

2.when you look around at the things you own,
is there a picky/specific or eclectic mix? Right now itâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s more of an antiquie feel

3.is there a particular time period in history that interests you? Any before I was born!! J

4.please list the total amount of animals in your home: Only one cat at the moment: Max (male)
(include all animals except husbands and children)

5.do you prefer things that can be hung on a wall, or things that
can be displayed on a shelf/mantle/etc or something edible? I HATE knick knacks- Max always breaks them.

6. what is something you always get too much of during the holidays?- Knick knacks or stuff I canâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t use
