About Me

Updated: 10.2009

Hi there. I'm artistic and I live in Virginia. I've been swapping for about four years, and found out about this site on 2.22.07 and have been swapping here since then. I love to trade dotee dolls and artist trading cards.

PLEASE NOTE: Please write the name of the swap on the outside of your box or envelope. And don't forget include BOTH your swap-bot forum name (the one under the swap participants list) and the swap name on envelope/packages to me. I want to be sure to acknowledge what you send!

My favorite colors include blues, golds and purples.

I love flowers (the iris is my favorite), nature, books, water (sea, ocean, rain), Asian culture, hearts, tigers and traveling. I write fiction, poetry and essays, and I paint (watercolor).

I'm a voracious reader and love things related to books and tea (i.e. notecards, teapots, stickers, etc.)

In terms of collections, mine include: dotee dolls (I put them on my Dotee Tree), letter openers and blue & white porcelain.

I'd call my crafting style eclectic and artsy simply because I'm willing to try almost anything at least once.

I love to read, travel and listen to music, and I enjoy puzzles (all kinds from crosswords and word searches to mystery and thriller novels), game shows, board games ... and swapping!

I also enjoy swapping neatly prepared decos ... and did I mention dotee dolls. :)

Favorite Music

mellow jazz, instrumental, Celtic, gospel

Favorite Movies

comedies, romantic comedies, and old romantic movies (preferably in black and white for those)

Favorite Television

I like 'em dead, laughing, cooking or playing games/challenges. :) So that would translate to: NCIS, CSI (Las Vegas and Miami), Law & Order, Criminal Minds, Two and a Half Men, Big Bang Theory, Monk, Psych, various cable news stations, Chopped, Project Runway, Top Chef, and on HGTV the show House Hunters.

Favorite Crafts

painting, scrapbooking, quilting, dotee dolls, assorted other papercrafts, including ATCs. I enjoy receiving card or dotee kits or creating them for people.

I love making, buying and receiving bookmarks. (I usually have about four books going at a time -- a thriller or mystery, a romance, a self-help and an inspirational or faith-based work.)

*Note to my fellow swappers**

I update my swap binder records twice a month. If you haven't been rated yet, it's coming up in the next cycle. Including the swap name on the envelope helps with this process and those generally get rated faster.

PLEASE include with your mailing a note with your name, forum name and the name of the swap either on the envelope or inside the package.

Comment: Thanks you very much! If I didn't know better I'd say you've known me personally for years, I've already opened your 4 "anytime" treats :) You were totally right, I am reaaaalllllyy bad at the whole "patience" thing. I've hidden the rest of the box in my closest in hopes that I won't be tempted to open it all early. Thanks!!

Comment: thank you so much for the trouble you when through she lovely. miles x
Response: Hello Miles: I just logged on and saw that you've rated me as not receiving a swap. The swap was mailed to you from the United States on Oct. 1 -- as noted on the swap page. a) The dotee that was made and sent for you has black trick-or-treat fabric as a background (the words trick-or-treat are on the fabric). b) It takes a while for international mail to to arrive from country to country. c) It's a good swap courtesy to let swap partners know via a PM or e-mail that something hasn't arrived before giving a rating. d) If the original package doesn't arrive to you by the end of this week, I'll mail a replacement. Please PM to let me know. Thanks. UPDATED: 10.26.09 -- A resend package was mailed out to you this morning. I sent a PM to you with the customs form (U.S. to U.K.) number. UPDATED: 11.10.09 Glad you got the package!
