I was nosing around antique shops the other day with my husband (ok, in truth my husband was shopping and I was trying to keep from being bored) when I found this peculiar item in one of the cases. 

Could it be?  Is that a crudely cut spanking paddle?  One that’s even designated specifically for boys??  Hmmm.  I tried with all my might to see what was written on the little tag, but it was unfortunately turned just out of view and I was too embarrassed to ask the lady at the counter to unlock the case just so I could examine this object.  For all I know it’s just a chunk of wood used as an oversized key tag for the boys restroom or something, but then who would put that in an antique shop?   And is that fire extinguisher placed there just in case a bottom is set ablaze?    Curious minds want to know.  What are your guesses?

It’s been a busy, busy week already and it will keep on buzzing by in the week to come.  I wasn’t kidding when I said I was hitting the ground running.  I think I might be hitting that ground with my bottom though!!  Let me update you on what’s going on in my whirlwind spanking world!!!

Had a great Punished Brats shoot on Saturday with Juliet Valentina and Lily Anna.  I got the chance to spank both lovely girls

… and Lily Anna also got the chance to have her revenge on me as well. 

I didn’t get to feel Juliet’s wrath, but Lily Anna sure did!!  Juliet makes a fierce top and it’s amazing to watch the transformation from her usual sweet, innocent self to tough top.

I also did film that juggling scene as promised a couple of posts back.  Wouldn’t you know though, we couldn’t find the juggling bean bags that were always around on the set and then could only scrounge up 2 tennis balls!  David had to run out in the middle of the shoot to find a third object for me to add and was able to find a baseball.  Let’s just say that my juggling skills were really put to the test in trying to juggle such very differently weighted objects.  And by tested, I mean the balls went flying everywhere.  Certainly made sense for the scene because I was spanked hard with a hairbrush for allowing one of the balls to go crashing into a lamp!

I will have lots more photos to share including the hot spankings given by David and Veronica on Pixie’s Previews this weekend.  Be sure to keep an eye out for them!

On Monday I met with a gentleman for a little private spanking session.  That was good fun too.  Boy is my bottom sore though after so many spankings in just a couple of days.  However, it’s awesome to be able to play with someone as well as just chat with them one on one and then act out new styles of role play.  Lily Anna and I are now cautiously looking to do more private sessions — preferably together at least for first time meets for safety reasons.  Here is a link to our page about private sessions with us.  If ever you wanted to play with us two brats – spank, get spanked, or switch, now is your chance!!  Be sure to take a look at our page Private Sessions with Lily Anna & Pixie and contact us today!  It’s guaranteed to be a ton of fun.

Lily Anna and I have also been hard at work creating content for her Clips4Sale site – Lily Anna’s Fantastic Fetish.  Lily has lots of different fetish content up there – some of which I’ve joined in on.  It was a lot of fun popping balloons with her but of course my favorite was when I got to spank her for making such a racket. 

My bottom will be back under fire again this weekend when I get to shoot with the lovely Audrey Knight for her new site, Spanking 360.  I believe that I will get the chance to top as well as bottom so I will be one worn out girl with a sore hand and sore buns come Monday.  We are still working out the details of the shoot, but I do know that I’ll have the chance to work with Vanny!  Woot woot!  I had so much fun the last time I shot with Audrey and Stefan back in the beginning of the year.  Be sure to check out the preview video on Audrey’s latest post to get a sneak peek at some of the videos that will soon be available on her site.  You might even see a very familiar blonde bottomed brat there. 

I’m very pleased to note that things are going really well with Cause for Paws 2010!!!  We are already up to $975 dollars which means we are already up to 5 minutes of a spanking thank you video … and of course much more importantly, the animal shelter is certain to benefit greatly again this year.  Please visit the CauseforPaws2010 page for more information about how you can contribute to the event.  In addition to being able to accept donations via snail mail and through the PB DVD store front, you can use PayPal after all if you email Lily Anna for more information and assistance in doing so.  Her address is on the C4P page.   

Also on the page I will soon start  listing some of the items that will be offered as raffle prizes and what will soon be available for auction on eBay / direct purchase to help raise funds.  Lots of cool stuff including implements, clothing, spanking books, drawings, DVD, website memberships,  jewelry, artwork, and more!!  Join in the fun and lend a helping hand to a needy paw. 

I’ve also started my Pixie Picture Archive blog up again and have daily posts set for the next few weeks.  I hope you’ll take a look and enjoy.

Thankfully the answer to the question, ‘can a brat fly?’ is YES!! 

And swim too.  Ha!

I had a ball on my vacation at Cape May/Wildwood with my hubby and friends!

We did so much – water parks, parasailing, biking on the boardwalk, light house tour, shopping, walks/runs on the beach, and more – that I could use a vacation to recover from my vacation!  Seriously though, I’m incredibly thankful to have been healthy enough to truly enjoy myself on this trip we’ve had planned since December.  But now, it’s time to get back to work! 

Wasting little time, we are ready to go with a new Punished Brats shoot tomorrow featuring two beautiful brats, Lily Anna and Juliet!  My bags are packed and I’m ready to take my very lightly tanned bottom to Philly to get a deeper hue … and share the glow too.  Muahahaha.

On the note of sharing and caring … and spanking too for that matter … I have set up an Online Donation method for Cause for Paws through the PB DVD store front. 

I looked into other services and P*yP*l alternatives, but found none that offered reliable service without chancing violating any terms of service agreements by being associated with spanking.  :-/  By donating through the DVD store front (Quick Cart), it’s totally a totally safe and secure transaction.  You may enter in any dollar amount you wish to contribute in the box marked “Price”, keep quantity as “1″, add to cart, and check out. 

Your privacy will always be protected.  Nothing will be sent to your home unless you wish (and win) a raffle item.  Your credit card statement will not mention anything spanking related!!  Of course, if you wish to avoid making any sort of online transaction, but still wish to donate, you can mail in your donation.  As of today, we are already up to $355 via snail mail!!  That’s already 1 minute and 45 seconds of spanking.  How long can we make this video and more importantly, how much can we help the shelter?

I’ve created a page – Cause for Paws 2010 page - located at the top of this blog to have one easy spot to keep updates regarding the fundraiser – the detailed information regarding donations, the snail mail address, and in the future the updates regarding auctions and raffle prizes.  Keep an eye on that page!!

I am headed out of town for a few days.  My husband and I along with a couple of friends are off to enjoy some time at the beach!  While we are there, I will answer the question “can a brat fly?” when I attempt to parasail.    Thank goodness this brat has pixie wings just in case. 

 See you when I get back rested and maybe a little more tan.  Oh and relaxed.  Working on the relaxed part.  To get a head start on that, I got a little reminder to chill out. 

~~~~~~~~~

So while I’m away, I’ll be available for any urgent issues via email at either customer service or pixie accounts, but I’ll get back to regular correspondence when I’m back home and settled in next week.  Updates will go up as scheduled and this week we have coming up at Punished Brats:

   
A Trip To The Study / Party Sister / Tennis Rivals

And don’t forget to take a visit to our Clips4Sale and Spanking Library sites.  Recent and upcoming udpates include:

    
Dad’s Dresscode / Evil Stepmother / Little Critters

And lastly, if you haven’t already checked it out, be sure to hop on over to My Spanking Roommate to see me get spanked and paddled alongside Ariel X by Momma Clare!

 Just a warning … this is one of my mega ramble info posts so be sure to grab a cup of coffee and a snack in preparation to read fully.

Thank you to everyone who has joined in on the brainstorming meeting for the Cause for Paws event! You have provided some wonderful suggestions. While unfortunately not all of them a feasible, they have helped guide me in a direction of what to do for this year’s charity drive. Let me give up a brief update (meeting minutes!) of what’s been decided and what’s still in the works.

1. Online donations – Thanks to a great tip from Chloe Elise, I’m looking into a method of receive online donations through Razoo. I just want to place a couple of calls on Monday to verify privacy (for myself and for donators) and also confirm the shelter can work well with this method of donating. I am also looking into Google Checkout which was recommended by Feline Fan. That might be another fantastic means of giving and receiving donations. I am going to dig into that option as well.

2. Snail Mail donations – As always, checks, money orders, and concealed cash donations can be sent directly to me via snail mail. Be sure to make the checks out to C.S.A. This is the organization we are raising funds for. The snail mail address to send to is:

Amber Wells
P.O. Box 204
Oxford, NJ 07863

3. Auction Items – Richard Windsor will be helping me with running online auctions to raise additional funds. I will be offering items of clothing and implements of my own up for auction via eBay. If there is anything specific from me that you’d like to see (spanking related or vanilla) go up for auction, send me an email or leave a comment. Richard and I will also be asking some of our spanking industry friends and brats to also contribute items if they choose. Again, please let us know what you might like to bid on.

4. Raffle Items – Anyone contributing $25 or more will be automatically entered into a raffle to receive donated prizes such as a 1 month membership (or free extension) to Punished Brats, a PB DVD, and a Cause for Paws t-shirt signed by many members of the PB cast (thanks for the idea Kelly!). Other raffle prizes are to be determined once we start coordinating with the other animal loving folks that wish to donate goods or services for the Cause. I already have a few readers here from my blog that have voiced an interest in donating items and we hope to have items from several of the girls from Punished Brats as well as others in the spanking community. I would like to draw names and do so on video in order to verify the random drawing. In order to protect everyone’s privacy, I will not read the full names aloud! Only the initials or screen name and the state / country. The winners will be contacted then privately via email. You will have to trust me on this one for the sake of everyone’s privacy that I hold to the nth degree. **Note** If you do not wish to be entered in the raffle because you do not wish to have anything sent to your address, please let me know. If snail mailing, include a little note stating this. If you are donating online, send me an email. Although all items will be shipped in a plain envelope/package with a normal return address and no mention of spanking, I totally respect your boundaries since all of you are so kind as to respect mine.

5. Other options / requests – As Matt mentioned on the previous post, last year Lily Anna was kind enough to do a custom video of herself standing in the corner for 10 minutes following her C4P spanking in exchange for the $100 donation. We would both be open to doing similar brief videos or custom photos in return for contribution.  Suggested donation in exchange for a short and feasible custom clip would be ones on par with Matt’s donation of $100.  Please email me if you have a request you would like us to consider.

6. Sorry, no Calendar – While I love this idea, I am not able to work it out financially. I have researched costs involved in creating a custom calendar and the per unit price to have the calendar printed would be $8.98. Then shipping from the printer to me would be $5.67. Then I would need to ship the calendar from me to the end recipient and would estimate this would be another $5.67 … more if it’s international. It was suggested that a calendar go to everyone that donated $20 or more, but in doing so, that would mean basically nothing would be left to go to the Cause. Plus I have the fear of placing the order in bulk for the calendars, paying up front, and then not even being able to move enough calendars to make up the investment I’d put in. Just a bit risky.

7. The Video!!  – The all important video. The first year I did a spank per dollar. I quickly realized that I had bitten off more than I could chew when I was overwhelmed by everyone’s generosity (or perhaps everyone’s desire to see my bottom clobbered). The second year Lily Anna and I came up with a tiered plan where our bottoms’ fates would be determined by the total raised – certain dollar amounts would mean a specific number of swats with various implements. This year I’m changing it up again and hope to make it just as fun but perhaps a little easier to film and potentially to involve others.

The spankings will be determined by time rather than number of swats. Eliminates that pesky need to count swats too!! We have a terrible time keeping track when either being the ones getting spanked or the ones spanking. LOL. Using a timer might be a little easier … although of course we’d have to keep an eye on the clock and knowing us, we’ll probably go over.

Similar to the swat/$ the first year, this will be time/$. The more donations that are raised, the more content we film. I know for certain that Lily Anna is in for filming with me. I am also sure that my hubby will be up for doing another filmed performance. And with any luck, I’ll be able to have other spanking friends contribute a few minutes of bottom warming to make a great compilation video. I can’t guarantee anything right now, but I am going to ask some of my fellow animal loving spanking enthusiasts if they’d be willing to literally put their bottoms on the line for the Cause.

Last year the grand total raised was a little over $3000 (including a few donations that came in after the event) and with the spanking Lily Anna and I did using the tiered approach, our video was 18 minutes long … about 15 of which was spanking action. Using that as a guideline, I’d like to offer that for every $200 raised, we will offer 1 full minute of spanking. As this will be a compilation video, it will feature spankings received by Lily Anna and myself and hopefully others too that are performed in a variety of ways. I know there are many different preferences out there and not all of them can be met simultaneously. This is the next best thing. There will be segments that start over clothing and segments that are right to the bare. Segments that are f/f and segments that are m/f. Segments that feature the hand and segments that feature a host of implements. Lots to enjoy in a video. But how much we have to offer and how much time we have to reach meet these variations will depend on you and the funds we can raise together.

I think it will be a fantastic and fun event as always. And most importantly of course, it’s for a great cause. Won’t you join in this year? Keep an eye out for future updates including how to donate online once I get that confirmed, for items that will be going up for auction, and for a list of spanking friends that are willing to participate in making this year’s thank you – spank us Cause for Paws video.

Time is flying as always – shoots, shore time, shpanking … errr spanking …. and more.  Just as summer should be!  But even as we just reach the peak of summer bliss, I received a reminder notice from the animal shelter about the annual fall fundraiser.  Aaaack!!  Fall???  It’s early this year and if I want to try to coordinate another Cause for Paws event to assist in sponsoring me in the fundraiser, I need to start organizing things now.

I was hoping that maybe you could help me brainstorm what to do this year.  I have already contacted a few animal loving friends including Lily Anna and Juliet and they’ve agreed to pitch in as they can.  

From Cause for Paws 2009 … What will 2010 bring?

I certainly plan on making another thanking-spanking video as we have done in past years, but we want to give back a little more to the individuals that are kind enough to donate to the Cause.  Richard Windsor has been helping me come up with a few ideas already.  The details have to be worked out yet and I certainly want your input as well. 

- Much like other fundraisers, we thought we might offer raffle entries to those that donate – I’d do a recorded drawing of the winners and mail the prizes to the individuals.  Of course if anyone doesn’t want to receive any form of correspondence or prize, that will always be honored!!  Trust me.  I value privacy immensely.

- Do it like the telethons and offer a private photoset or video to be sent via email for those that contribute a certain dollar amount.  Kind of like the PBS totebag, but a lot more fun to look at.

- Any other ideas for ways to give back to those that choose to donate?  Any prize ideas/requests if we opt to go that route?

Then there is the tricky issue regarding donations themselves.  As you may recall from last year’s event, both my own P*yP*l account (I dare not say the name) and David Pierson’s were permanently shut down due to having been affiliated with this blog which is considered to be “obscene” for its spanking related content.  So as much as I loved the ability to use their services in the past, that’s a definite no-go this year.  Are there alternate services?  Of course there is always good ol’ snail mail and possibly using the PB online DVD storefront, but I want to make this as easy as possible for all of you.  P*yP*l was great as far as ease, convenience, and reliability, but what can you do.

So that’s it for now.  I hope you’ll help in providing your feedback and figuring out ways to have another successful year for the sake of our furry friends.

I had the pleasure of doing an interview with the lovely Juliet Valentina and asked several of the questions you posed in response to a Pixie’s Previews entry a few weeks ago.  It was great to learn a little bit more about what Juliet has been doing the last couple of years and find out what it was like to come back to a very warm Punished Brats reception.  Enjoy!!

I’ll start off with the most frequently asked fan question …

What inspired your change in hair style?

– Honestly, my change in hair color was mainly an “experiment”, having never been anything but a blonde since birth (yes, it’s natural! lol). I had an audition for a musical that required a brunette character, and I saw my chance to make a dramatic change. So far, the response has been extremely positive, from co-workers, family, and friends, but I secretly want to go back to my natural color in a big way (I think blondes DO have more fun…). I’d love to know what the PB fans think about it — they might see the “old” Juliet sooner than later anyhow!

You have always been a very popular model and your fans are thrilled to see you back.  Is there a way for them to get in touch with you? Any thoughts to starting your own blog?

– I’ve been seriously toying with the idea of beginning a blog, deterred only by the upkeep factor. As long as I’m able to find the time, the creation of one might not be far off — any ideas or advice would be appreciated Until then, fans are more than welcome to contact me at julietvalentinaspanked@gmail.com!

How did it feel to get spanked on camera again?

– When I took my break from shooting for PB, it was because of personal reasons and because I thought that I was on the verge of going into a teaching career (decidedly NOT spanko-friendly!). My life has taken several different turns since then, and I was actually thinking about returning to the camera long before PB contacted me again — I’m so happy you did!! Walking onto the PB set again was like coming home in a way. I fell back into it very naturally — it was almost like I never left, and that was just how I knew it would be, since all of the people involved are so professional and genuine, and since spanking and discipline have now become a part of my daily life. In my very first scene of the day, I got to watch my “sister” Lorraine take her hand spanking before it was my turn, and the anticipation was crazy!

You did mostly hand spankings before, how was it to take implements this time around?

– Little do the PB fans know, I have been taking implement spankings for some time now…at home! I have a new partner that I’m sharing my life with, who has been incredibly receptive to the idea of domestic discipline and fetish in general; every few weeks or so we treat ourselves to a new “toy”, and I am now very used to a number of different things, from slappers to floggers to crops. I’m happy that implement spankings are now something that I feel comfortable sharing with the PB fans, and I’m sure they’ll be seeing much more in the shoots to come!

What else have you been up to since we last saw you?

– Since my hiatus from PB, I’ve made some major changes in my life, including location, love life, and job! I’ve mainly been making a full-time effort at pursuing my greatest loves, theatre and music, and also working with some Philadelphia animal organizations, another cause that is very close to my heart. Other than that, I’m the same old Juliet, just a little more grown up

Thanks Juliet!  So glad to have you back.  Look forward to filming with you and Lily Anna in just a couple of weeks!!

This just in!  Juliet has created her own blog.  Juliet’s Time Out

Sorry all!  I’ve been snowed under (which is an odd phrase to use when it’s disgustingly hot and humid outside) with a new project for Punished Brats.  I’m working on a way of featuring some of older material as well as continuing to offer our more recently filmed scenes.  We have lots of “lost” scenes - ones that we have filmed and never had the opportunity to present anywhere, and “classic” scenes – ones that may have been featured on DVD only. 

**Edited to announce we are all set!**
Punished Brats Clips4Sale

A lot of the lost scenes feature me simply because after participating in every Punished Brats shoot but one for close to 5 years, that’s a lot of Pixie content … way more than I’d ever impose on anyone!!    But rather than keep it stuffed away in a virtual attic collecting nothing but dust, we’ve decided to make use of it.  And more importantly, get more featuring all of the girls content out and available to fans faster. 

just a few of the lost scenes … hundreds of lost and classics coming soon

So while the project is well under way, I’m just waiting for the billing paperwork stuff to be sorted out and then I will post the link.  I don’t mean to tease (you know I’d never do that), but I just wanted to give you a taste of what I’ve been cookin’ up.  I’ll post a link just as soon as everything is ready to go live.  Let me know if there are any lost scenes that you’ve been on the lookout for!

**Edit: Here is the link**

Punished Brats Clips4Sale

Aside from Punished Brats projects, I’m also trying to gear up for a photo gallery display (eeep!  already?), returning to school to take some classes, and doing my usual running around.  Back to my old self and my multitasking ways. 

And just as on a totally random note, yes I can juggle in real life.  Would you like to see?  If so, I’ll be happy to make a little video of myself making an attempt … though probably with socks or something, not my laptop and phone. 

Oh, you wanted a BUNDT cake.  My bad. 

Is it possible to spot another spanko?  Are there certain features that might give us away?  I think to the general vanilla population, unless we come out wearing a shirt like this …

the answer is no.  They aren’t looking for those specific traits and most likely haven’t even heard of people that are deeply into spanking.  This is a good thing in my opinion.  I don’t want it to be too obvious because this is a personal passion that need not be shared with everyone and anyone.  Not that a love of spanking is anything to harbor deep shame over, but it’s simply a matter that not everything in one’s private life needs to be shared with the public at large. 

But when it comes to spotting another enthusiast, are there signs that you look for to try to identify a fellow spanko? 

If only it were so easy as to be able to spot a red bottom on the beach.

Or when going through airport security, discover the luggage of the person in line ahead of you looks like a London Tanners display case.

I think the signs tend to be much more subtle though.  Certain key phrases used in every day conversation, a tendency to flex the dominant hand in a playful manner, frequently checking out the bottoms of passers-by, an undying love of pretty panties, and so on.  Yes, these are behaviors that many vanillas may exhibit as well, but when a few of them come together or are coupled with other traits, all signs point to spanko. 

What signs do you look for?  What hints might you try to drop to someone you suspect of being a fellow spanking enthusiast (without giving yourself away entirely if the person turns out to be vanilla)?  Is it possible to even define it in words what that spanking vibe is?  Help me out here.
