In no particular order, these are the things I am seeking, and why:
Beads or marbles. They must be round, color is becoming irrelevant but white is preferred. I need them to create eyeballs. Ideally these would be 10mm-20mm.
Fabric, trims, scraps, and cast-off clothing. At KawaKon there is a panel on upcycled costumes, plus a big ol' Project Cosplay workshop on Sunday. I'm seeking donations of fabric, trims, ribbons, and the like. Since this is for both human-sized costumes AND doll-sized clothing as well, small pieces and scraps are welcome.
Raffle Prizes: We have a raffle at KawaKon to benefit the STL BJD convention, so prizes appropriate for the KawaKon crowd are welcome. We are ALSO having a fundraiser in March, and are looking for raffle prizes for that. We're looking for new (or like-new) donations of wonderful items to inspire people to invest in the raffle.
A Trailer Ball-hitch. 2 inches. I used to have one but I believe that I left it with the Blue Truck. The Kracken needs a ball. LOL. If someone has one to spare, speak up quickly so I don't have to buy one.
Tools for working in clay. We have a doll-sculpting panel and we could use some more tools. I'll even take your play-doh tools!
Ponies! If you have anything resembling a "my Little Pony" that you no longer want, pass it along. There's a pony-modding panel at KawaKon, too. I'm not running it but I bet they could use more ponies.
My Costumes: If you have borrowed anything from me and still have it, please give it back. I have huge gaps in the costume collection and convention season is upon us.
A pair of clown pants. In particular, I want a pair of those comically large pants with the hoop around the middle and suspenders/bracers to hold them up. Not sayin' why. Just need 'em.
Snake-in-a-can gag gimmick. I need two. It would be nice to not have to buy them. I only need the snake part, not the can.
Helpers. I could use loading and unloading helpers next weekend. I'm looking for someone to come to the Mint Cookie and help me load the truck on Friday morning, and someone to help me unload Sunday night.
Pettins. When you see me, hug me. Pet my head. Scratch my back. Grab my @ss. I've been feeling like I'm at arm's length for a while now. Remember that I don't have someone at home to pet me for the time being. I could use some more pettins.
(Weird: Just now, as I'm typing this, my cat hopped up on my chair and is sitting on my back. I guess she can READ English too...and is now on my shoulder like a parrot.)
Booze donations. The Horny Party is back! Underbridge and associates will be entertaining the masses at Conflation. If you have random leftover party booze, we'd love to have it for the Troll Bar. Lothlorien's Troll Bar sucked down my "spare" booze last year. I will be acquiring some choice social lubricant, but if you've got a bottle or two lurking in the cabinet taking up space, bring it along so the Trollop can put a Dollop in the drinks! (In particular: Vodka and tequila because I don't actually drink them and usually forget to buy them.)
Of course, if you want to bribe the Trollop, she likes green boozes (Midori, particularly), Fruity stuff (peach schnapps, triple sec, grand marnier, sloe gin), and the spider-flavored stuffs (absinthe, sambuca, jaegermeister.) And we all like a bit of rum, don't we?
