I found the forum while searching online for Windstone. If I recall correctly, that day I saw βAzaleaβ, the raffle prize, and signed right up β knowing nothing about forum etiquette or anything. Fools rush in β¦ (but everybody was very tolerant). Thanks.
Follow-up question: the most daunting part of PYOs may be all the supplies that seem to be required. How much room do all the paints, and powders, and brushes, and airbrushes, and sealers, and thinners, etc. take up? Or is it one of those things that starts small and expands?

Itβs kind of intimidating when your meager effort is going up against the likes of Koishii, GB, Drag0n, Melodyβ¦ Iβm kind of wondering if I shouldnβt have joined the ornament swap now, since I see people like etruscan were in it. I hope my person isnβt too disappointed.
Donβt feel that way, pip! I started the ornament swap just to have a little fun around the holidays.
Heavens no, donβt feel that way! I joined the ornament swap because I have patterns and supplies for making little felt critters (as you saw). But that is as far as I go. PYOs scare the heck out of me, though I certainly enjoy looking at everyone elsesβs work (and I have been lucky enough to buy a few along the way).

Thanks so much etruscan!
Youβre welcome. Iβm glad that you like them.
I have used AuctionStealer (http://www.auctionstealer.com) for years. I have the paid service because sometimes I use it a lot, but they also have a limited free option.
I know a lot of people disapprove of snipe engines, but I find mine invaluable for situations like this, or when the auction closes at some inconvenient time, or when I donβt want to risk missing the end of the auction. There are free options available if you would need it only once in a while.

Anyways, no surprise what I want, a point and shoot camera. My last one was a lemon
Seeβs is a brand, yes. I donβt think Iβd consider them βfineβ chocolates, but theyβre not the low grade candy bar type either. I love the marshmallow/caramel. Mmmmm!
Ah, OK. Iβm not sure Iβve ever seen that brand, but they may be here; I donβt really eat chocolate so I just might not have noticed them.
Seeβs Candy is a West Coast brand, though they do set up an outpost at a mall near here (Annapolis, MD) during the Christmas season. I think they have also gone into mail-order. I had a relative who moved here from San Francisco and she thought that Seeβs chocolate was the very best. So every Christmas I put Seeβs chocolate in her stocking and Godiva in my daughterβs stocking. Going to the Seeβs kiosk while carrying a Godiva bag β or going into Godiva with a Seeβs Candy bag β always made the sales clerks frown. I can go either way, except I donβt think that Seeβs makes Key Lime Truffles. :yum:I use Amazon, but mostly to see when books are due to come out. Rarely buy through them. None of the other sites β I spend most of my online computer time on ebay, Windstone forum, and email.

Mine has been mailed [yesterday
]. Fortunately it doesnβt have far to go.

I suppose those are easy enough to find at craft stores?
Now, that is a good question. Craft store? Hardware store? My ex-husband had a whole room full of stuff (plumbing, electrical, tools, nails, screws, washers, bolts, etc,, etc., etc.) so I got in the habit of just going downstairs and rummaging when I needed something. Iβm not used to buying clips and fasteners.
Wow β I donβt usually like the Emperors but that one is spectacular! Congratulations β and a tip of the hat :hi: to whoever is willing to let him go.
Rather than trying to complete the hole, could you attach the trinket with a spring clip β something that has ends that fit into the existing holes?
I am not in the market for Griffins, Siamese or otherwise (though that chick sure is cute), but I like the first male that was on ebay much better than the second.
Thanks β I was wondering how long it was proper to wait before asking!
