As i was out shopping this morning I had a couple more questions but do think I can think of them now while I sit here

[tmlskk01]

I have a question to add.

Do you and or your children like to make crafts? If so is there anything you would like for crafting?


I make a ton of things, I am always looking for chalk paint and clear wax (love the stuff from michaels), stencils, crafting magazines, paint brushes and just about anything else. I will find a use for it haha.

[tmlskk01]

Buddy, do you have a wax melter/warmer. If so, are you looking for melts? Which scents do you like?

I love baked goods and fruity scents for my melter.

[becky_j]

We have both a scentsy and glade warmers. Would like fruity melts as listed on wl

As for board game would be ok with monopoly.

ds1 likes to do crafts once in a while. We usually don't buy them because 99% seem to be marketed to girls. But if you find a nice boy one that would be great.

dh makes a game every year for both kids birthdays (something to match the theme of the party). He usually uses craft markers (he's been using the same ones for 4 years and they have finally dried out... Red, black, blue, green, brown, grey, yellow. Common colours in super heroes and other boy themes), thick blank paper (card stock? Can't remember exactly what he called it), scissors (he uses normal scissors but might like special craft scissors.), and double sided tape dots.

me not really if I want something made I get Dh to do it.

ds2 not yet but he likes to help with stuff so might want to do something crafty by himself soon.

[scbpooh]

No crafty stuff here. I have a glade warmer but use all types in it. We prefer sweet or fruity smells. Gag gift, I'm ok with anything

Definitely kid friendly. I mentioned in my wish list that we do these packages together which means we will all be opening them together. It doesn't have to be a kid item but can't be inappropriate for them to see.


my buddy will probably notice I have a lot of walking dead items on my list they are aloud to see stuff like that (just not aloud to watch the actual show or video game) but the toys/collectibles are ok.

no we don't we also don't have many candles (we only use birthday candles) since we have 2 small kids we avoid having any kind of open flames, hot waxes or hot oils (so we don't even use the electric ones).

I tried to go shopping today but the line up at Popeye's was short and I couldn't help myself. We just got it in Ottawa a few weeks ago. Will probably buy a few items over the next few days.

My buddy's wishes are awesome and I should not have a hard time with them!

I love Michaels! Going to the USA for Black Friday and hoping to take a few pics. I love to paint and scrapbook.
