Oh my GOODNESS! That wand is beautiful. Honestly, it is so stunning <3333 Congratulations on being the owner of such a fantastic thing!!

So glad you enjoyed the love from the love meme, honestly it totally made me cry too. Writing on it for other people felt so lovely, and receiving messages back was just incredible. You absolutely deserve all the love and praise!

Oh no!! I am so sorry that you have been sick. I completely relate. I've actually been sick over the past few days as well. Hope you'll be fully feeling better soon. I know you're a tea-lover already, but be sure to drink EXTRA tea and also get some rest. Maybe look up some figure skating to watch :D

(As a totally unrelated sidenote, I am in the process of replying to both of your messages, so expect some replies relatively soon)

Eeee, thank you!! Isn't it completely amazing? I mean, he hasn't even just painted the veins of the leaves, he's carved them and painted in the gap. You can see it in the last picture. It's effing insane. How did he do such precise work? I must ask him about his process some more. He's done a fantastic job, and then varnish on top of that. It's just-- wow.

Ooooh, yesss, yes. *nods* I've been drinking plenty, both green and black and white. With extra honey in it, for my throat. I usually don't like it too sweet, but with my sense of taste being slightly off it's been fine. The hot drink is really soothing, and today I felt good enough to run some errands.

I'm going to bed now but I look forward to reading your message(s) at some point tomorrow. :D :D :D

Gahhhhh <3 I am just going to stare at the wand for a while longer! It's totally distracting. Wow. Those carved gold accents look like actual magic sparking through the wood. It's genius. I've got actual hearts in my eyes.

*pats you on the head* Good, very good. Glad you're taking care of yourself and drinking ALL the tea.

Goodnight, my dear! Chat with you tomorrow :D

I hope your cold goes away soon, and that you are having a good weekend! <33

Yesss, I love the color too. I don't know if the varnish deepened it, or if he's done something else on top of that, or if it's naturally like that... but I love it. And oh my god, the little golden veins on the leaves blow my mind the most. They're not just painted, they're carved first. It looks like a little needle scratch with paint in. How he managed that is beyond me. That's some precise handiwork, man. :D AAAH. I'm so lucky.

Thank youu~

I hope you're well, too. <3

Ooh, that's nice to hear. How much effort is that? Do you tend to get swept away by the feeling of wedding happiness or have you done it so often that your focus lies on you job?

That wand is so GORGEOUS!! Your pal should get into the for a living! What a lovely present to receive, it's just stunning.

Oh, I'm so glad you said that because then I'm not alone. That's precisely what I told him, that he could definitely make a bunch and sell online, they're that wonderful. He said he sold off the ones he'd made previously over the years, so clearly there's an interest.

It's beautifully handcrafted and he just made it and gave it to me, free of charge. :D I'm crazy happy!

The love meme was such a treat. I'm still in awe about it.

Your wand is beautiful and the gold and the vines are stunning. Didn't know willow was so dark. Or did your friend use some varnish? It's great! :D

Since Friday I've been having a head cold and have to stay in bed for a few days. My colleagues won't be happy, but if I'd spread it that would be even worse, wouldn't it? Get better soon!

Ohh, me too. It was a very nice boost for all of us, I think.

Thank you! Gosh, yes, it's beautiful handiwork right there. He did use varnish, so that must've had some effect although I don't know how much.

Aw, you as well? Seems a lot of colds are going around the world at the moment. I could've possibly worked Friday, but I thought along the same lines as yourself. Why go in and cough on people? Don't think they'd appreciate it. Definitely wiser to get better first. They can manage at work without you while you recover.

OMGGGGG YOUR WANNNDDDD IS AMAZZZINGGGGG!!!!!! Eddy is brilliant, and this is so intricate and well made, ugh, you lucky duck!!!! I am wild with envy and joy!

ISN'T IT THE MOST WONDERFUL THING?! I'm so lucky. I keep playing with it like the dork I am, stuffing it up my sleeve and sliding it out into my hand, and waving it around. Or I simply sit and roll it between my fingers and stare in awe at it. I am SUCH a lucky duck!! Eddy is indeed brilliant. DO YOU HEAR THAT, EDDY? Fandom appreciates your wandmaking.

akfghklgfkh I tried to figure out if I knew who wrote what on the meme and I got to one comment and I was like "this could be her!!" and then I read another and was like "this is also her!!" so I failed. But either I way I was fucking blown away :D :D :D :DD :D :DDD and totally teared up so much I got embarrassed and hid in the bathroom for a minute. <33 And somehow, despite that reaction, it felt EVEN BETTER to leave comments.
