I'm not a fan of anything alien or alien invasion themed. I tend to stick with more of the old English, 18th century, Victoriany style.

IowaGuy, for this themed mini reaper, you need to pick one, specific theme and make a list of things you like that fit that one theme.
If Victorian is your theme, make a specific list: Gothic? Steampunk? Fancy Victorian decor? Jack the Ripper type stuff? Ect.
Have fun!! 🙂

I would say nothing pirate themed, what do pirates have to do with Halloween?

I am thinking perhaps, that a few posters might be thinking this post is about haunt themes? It's the likes/ dislikes thread for the mini reaper "pick your theme" swap. If you are signing up, please give a very detailed list of what you want your reaper to send you. 😊

 

[Tvling]

Just wondering. Can the theme be something like "Creative Halloween" and put stuff on your list that you need to make other things?

...what do pirates have to do with Halloween?

Plenty of pirate stories and legends contain strong elements of horror - vengeful ghosts, macabre traps, curses, murder, monsters, skeletons and mangled corpses, the undead.

Here's my list. I am perfectly ok with thrifted or 2nd hand items!
I am calling my theme "the Creepy Crafter"
Spell book pages, can just be free printed pages, wiccan, dark and creepy. Would love the McBeth witches poem!
Potion labels, small to medium sized. Again can be free printed ( I don't have a printer) can be dark or fun, or both!
Small bells, vintage looking, either antique style jingle bells, or Asian or cow bell style,
Charms, wiccan, witch or Halloween type, silver or gold.
Emphemera, (sp?), images, tags, inks, paper doilies for junk journals( witchy-dark- gothic- vintage- shabby chic style).
Beads of all types- fancy trims for fabric, golds and silver filigree type.
Natural/nature items. Crystals, gems, pretty stones.
Celestial symbols,(the sun, moon, stars) in any type ( charms, jewelry, wood, etc)
Crocheted or tatted vintage ( or vintage style) doily or lace. Creams, whites, colors, all work!
Small wooden shapes and boxes.
Items to make steam punk crafts.
I am putting together a board to give ideas on Pinterest!
I might add to this if I think of something else

Alright, I was on the fence about joining because of my class load and also traveling in May, but your lists are inspiring me. I’ll get a theme dreamed up and post my list soon.

My theme: Spiritual Living

I am a very spiritual person, a soul that has a body. For 17 years I lived with someone who was just plain horrible. I won't go into details here, but part of that was him not allowing me to show my real self. I got free though! Three years and counting now, and I decorate my body, home and life with any and all things that make me happy. No more hiding. No more fear. I am unique and I embrace it! My style is hippie and bohemian and witchy and just a bit sarcastic-(*)itchy. I am free and untamed, and loving every minute of it!

• Incense- Wild Berry is a fave brand. I love Patchouli, Nirvana, Zen, Dragons Blood, Nag Champa. Yes, other brands are fine too!
• Palo Santo sticks for smudging. Maybe a travel smudging kit, with small shell and Palo Santo in a tin or box.
• Soaps, lotions, detergents from Indigo Wild. Love anything from this company really! Fave scents: patchouli, frankincense & myrrh, dragons Blood, any lavender blend.
• Travel tin altars/witchy kits that can go where I go. Spell kits.
• Candles, Any and all. Real or LED. Scented or unscented. Always need them!!
• Any fun/ spiritual themed pillows. From "namaste" to "smudge that (*) it"... Lol, my style can be a bit ornery, bad words do not offend me at all! Dear reaper, I hope they don't offend you, if so, my sincere apologies!
• Spiritual wall art, curtains, towels, tapestries etc.
• Tie dye stuff and rainbows! I love fun bright colors in my home.
• Beaded curtains are awesome!
• T shirts with spiritual sayings/images. I prefer unisex or men's style. I do not care for women's shirts, they are cut too low for my personal taste and tend to hug places I don't want to be hugged. 😂 I like baggy and comfy, 2x is preferred. Love black, hunter green, grey, dark blues, tie dye..
• Hamsa items. Candle holder etc.
• Palmistry hand, kit.
• Yggdrasil, the world tree items. Home decor, jewelry, t shirt, pillow.
• Along the same line, "As above, so below" items for home or wear.
• Chakra themed items. Candles, bracelets, pillows. It would be awesome to have a little chest or shelves done with the chakra colors, so I could display other items.
• Buddha pot/planter for indoor plants.
• Selenite towers or lamps. Candle holders.
• Gemstones- points, spheres, raw, any...
• Colorful lamps, candle holders
• Love any light strands for my big front porch. Could be bulbs or novelty like peace signs, hot peppers, cacti, mushroom. Pretty much anything!
• Peace sign items and decor, candles.
• Sun catchers.
• I love handmade items!!
• Zodiac items/astrology. I am a Leo, birthday is August 5..
• I love flavored coffees and creams, spiritual themed mugs.

Byondbzr, I have the same issues with womens t shirts. I do wear them, my biggest gripe is cap sleeves!! Not every woman is 30 years old and slim!! I have old lady arms, give me some sleeves!!!!
As far as bad word, phishaw--- I am married to a retired Teamster union steward. And he has rubbed off on me!!! 🤪 . So it's all good!

Great list also!!!
