Greetings your Excellencies,

I very greatly approeciate your willingness to donate largess to the
GW baskets.  What did you have in mind?  I have asked a few artisans
to prepare small but tasteful gifts to be distributed to each kingdom.
Jewlery, handcrafted wooden boxes, coifs, and feather hat pins are
currently planned.  We could probably use some containers/bags for
holding the items.   Kits such as an armor repair kit, a shower kit,
sewing or first aid kit are also usually welcome.  I enjoyed getting
handmade paper note cards and was able to use them for thank-you notes
during my reigns.  


I would generally discourage food items, not that that are not
appreciated, just that sometimes it is a while before you can go
through all the things you get a GW and they may get stale.  Try to
provide one gift for each kingdom.  They do not have to match but
should all be of similar quality.

Many thanks,

Cateau d'Ardennes

Does any one have any ideas or suggestions for items to make?  There 
doesn't seem to be a structured requirement.  Maybe some necklaces in 
the different kingdom's colors?  If you have an idea please post it.
