I had time to sit and watch this this morning. It was wonderful and I truly appreciate the window into an awesome and supportive community.
It takes strength to be who you truly are and more strength to be willing to share that with others who may not be as open to something different.
Congratulations on finding each other and I wish you well and much happiness through your lives!

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I’ve never had to remove any stuck on cardboard but here is what I do for my other Windstones…
For general cleaning of my Windstones I dust them with canned air every other week or so.
For the yearly cleaning of everything except the Rubies I dust them and then wrap their tags in cling wrap to help keep the tags dry (I also usually use a bit of string to tie the tag up to the side of the sink so the tags aren’t just laying in the sink on the large pieces) then set them into the kitchen sink and spray them very lightly with water. I then use a very old soft toothbrush and some diluted dish soap to go over them. Smaller items, of course, you can just hold upside down and clean without getting their pads wet at all. I rinse the soap off as quickly as possible then set them onto a bath towel and press down a bit to help dry their pads. I’ll move them a few times on the towel and repeat the process to be sure the pads dry well. I just gently towel off the excess water at that point and let them stay on the bath towel a few hours to be sure the pads have dried before I put them back on their shelves.For my Ruby Windstones I tend to use the canned air on them once a week to help prevent any dust from building up at all. They are also kept in an enclosed cabinet.
For their yearly cleaning I dust them well. I then take the old soft toothbrush get it wet and rub it mostly dry on a towel so that it is BARELY damp. Then I go over them with the brush, rinsing and re-drying the brush any time it starts to look like its got any dirt on it. After I’m done I use a soft towel to go over them and buff them to be certain I didn’t miss any spots on the dragons.Hope this helps!

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"Ohh these are always my favorite cards every year! Sent in my address and so looking forward to it again this year!

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"Not the best display photo of mine, but this is all of them in one place the last time I cleaned them. I have since added a hatching baby and a coiled dragon but that was after this photo was taken. And the Rising Spectral has been sold.

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"That was so thoughtful. And a beautiful memorial.

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"lol. That probably depends upon just how much you want to keep the hubby.
I look at it this way. The Windstones don’t eat and so are actually cheaper to keep in the long run!

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I am sorry Natasha. As you already said, she is in a better place now and at peace. Sending prayers for you and your family.

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I live far enough from town that in 30 years I have never had any trick or treaters. Having said that I LOVE Halloween. I don’t usually decorate much as really no one will see it but me. This year I just did a small display area.
Happy Halloween everyone!

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"Welcome Jeff!
I don’t even know what a podcast is so I cant help you out any there. But I wish you all the best at Windstone and here in the forums!
Looking for:
"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I thought long and hard on this and came to the conclusion I would sell the hubby and keep all the Windstones!
Looking for:
"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"Beautiful collections. Love your display icewing!
Looking for:
"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I am so sorry for your loss. It hurts so much to lose a fur baby and when one connects so deeply its something that is always there. Know that she is still watching over you from the rainbow bridge and that she wouldn’t want you to blame yourself nor the Shepard mix that you also rescued.
No matter what we do, sometimes life just doesn’t align how we hope it would and horrible accidents unfortunately do happen.
Sending thoughts and prayers of peace and healing for you and your family.

"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"I too agree with all that Rylorian and the ones after her have stated. The mini-beans are an exclusive KS reward and should remain so. The KS was something most of us in the forums knew was upcoming for well over a year before it happened which gave everyone time to save, barring any unexpected emergencies.
I know for me personally I would not have bought as many of the mini-beans as I have if I thought they were going to become something everyone could buy at a later date. As adorable as they are, for me, in part their exclusiveness adds to their value. I would be less likely to try and save as much for any new KS if I thought the exclusive rewards were all of a sudden going to become available to everyone.
I think Melody has been incredibly kind to continue to paint for those of us who did back the KS. I know that I have bought some additional members to my clutter and they are all much loved and appreciated!
I do love the thought of Halloween painted poads and I think that the tad poads would make a fantastic candidate for that. Just think vampire tad poads with black and white tufts! Or orange ones with green tufts. So many possibilities and still affordable!
Looking for:
"COSMIC SHIFT DRAGONS and KI-RINS" and the "OCTOPUS TANUKI TEST PAINT #1"Yes I got the same one. I will email Jennifer and Susie to let them know
