        I’ve been swamped all weekend, otherwise I would have posted pics, but my ornaments from etruscan arrived Saturday. Yay! It’s a pair of white elephants! So cute! They are already hanging on one of the trees in the house. 🙂 Thanks so much etruscan! 🙂

        You’re welcome. I’m 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 don’t want to risk missing the end of the auction. There are free options available if you would need it only once in a while.

              What is “See’s chocolate?” A specific brand?

              Anyways, no surprise what I want, a point and shoot camera. My last one was a lemon 🙄

              See’s is a brand, yes. I don’t think I’d consider them “fine” chocolates, but they’re not the low grade candy bar type either. I love the marshmallow/caramel. Mmmmm!
              Ah, OK. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen that brand, but they may be here; I don’t really eat chocolate so I just might not have noticed them.
              See’s 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 See’s chocolate was the very best. So every Christmas I put See’s chocolate in her stocking and Godiva in my daughter’s stocking. Going to the See’s kiosk while carrying a Godiva bag – or going into Godiva with a See’s Candy bag – always made the sales clerks frown. I can go either way, except I don’t think that See’s 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 – I spend most of my online computer time on ebay, Windstone forum, and email.

                  Mine has been mailed [yesterday 😳 ]. Fortunately it doesn’t have far to go.

                    I could certainly try 🙂 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. I’m not used to buying clips and fasteners.

                      Wow – I don’t usually like the Emperors but that one is spectacular! Congratulations – 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 – 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 – I was wondering how long it was proper to wait before asking! 😉

                              I just rediscovered the Windstone CafePress store with all kinds of Christmas gift ideas. It looks like you can have a Pearl Secret Keeper on a tee shirt, even if you don’t have one on your shelf! 🙂 The path is Windstone Home – Website & Dealer Catalog – Cafepress Store.

                                Wasn’t the poll also at the beginning of the user control panel or the private messages section? I remember seeing some announcements there as well as on the Forum itself.

                                  I did a search on “eye socket” and I found a couple of posts about eyes not fitting windstones because the eyes themselves are handmade and can sometimes differ just enough to make a difference, but I’m too terrified to try the other eye in the socket, especially since I can definitely see some raised part in the socket that I don’t remember being there in my last PYO.

                                  Purpleturtle – what did you use to scrape out the socket? If I can correct it I don’t want to bother Susie.. I know she’s probably pretty busy.. but at the same time I don’t want to wait until it’s too late! 🙄

                                  If you search “eye stuck” and “remove eye” you will find other posts on this topic. The message seems to be “Use great care in removing the eye”. I can’t tell if you were able to get yours out or not.
