About Me

member of Swap-Bot since March 3, 2007!

Hello and Welcome to my profile! If you are here just to have a look around, enjoy! My profile is an almost constant state of change! If you are here to get more info for a swap, can I please ask you to look at one thing first? Please scroll all the way to the bottom and read my list of dislikes. That way it saves you time and maybe money. Thanks!

My name is Mikki!
I am a 36 yr old married mom of 3 kids and married for 12 yrs. I am a S@HM and fabric artist! .

I am a Witch. I walk with the Goddess and I honor Her on a daily basis. I walk a fine line between the dark and the light, what I like to call a Twilight path. Because for me, there is no light without the dark. I've been a Pagan for 30+, practicing for almost 20. I consider myself Eclectic since I follow my Louisiana HooDoo roots, Hedge Witchery, Kitchen Witchery and the Egyptian trad. I work with herbs, candles and crystals. I will not and do not hesitate to do what some consider darker magic. I am a Daughter of Hekate. I also honor Gaia, Isis and Bast.

I am a member of the Covenant of Hekate. I participated in the Rite of Her Sacred Fires May 5, 2012. At the same time, I also did the ritual, The Rite of the Devotee. On Aug 13, 2012, on the night of the Feast of Hekate, I completed the Rite of the Red Cord. I am now considered a Devotee of Hekate through the COH. Although I didn't need all of this, I now feel closer to the Goddess than ever. I have been a Devotee of Hekate for over 5 years now. I've also recently joined The Mystai of the Moon Coven. It is an online coven dedicated to Hekate.

Random, specific things that I love: my husband and kids, Halloween, horror movies, Vincent Price, black cats, bats, thunderstorms, vampires (not the sparkly kind!), reading my Kindle, the smell of patchouli, the Goddess, candles and incense, fabric, the color black, the smell of old books, Ancient Egypt, old cemeteries....

My nerd girl randomness:
* Star Trek
* Star Wars
* Supernatural
* Lost
* Batman
* Wonder Woman
* InuYasha
* The Big Bang Theory
* Justified
* Hello Kitty
* Wonder Woman
* The Big Bang Theory
* Marvel comics, specifically--Iron Man, Capt. America, Thor, Loki and Hulk.
* Firefly/Serenity
* Sherlock
* Doctor Who

My current mini-obsession is Pinterest. So yes, I am joining a lot of Pinterest email swaps. I love seeing what others have found and finding some treasures of my own. In my eyes, it's another way of getting to know someone.

Wishlist

Disclaimer: This is not a shopping list. If you have me as a partner in a swap, I am not at all expecting you to send me any of these things. (If you choose to it will obviously be much appreciated.) This is more of a guide of things I like and would like to have!!

This book, hardback or paperback or softback:

  • Smudge Feather or fan
  • handmade necklaces (18" and longer) and bracelets (at least 7")
  • souvenirs from Romania. Anything with Vlad Dracul.
  • anything with crows or ravens
  • items from my Etsy list or based on them
  • items from my Amazon wishlist above. Doesn't have to come from there is you can get it elsewhere.
  • Hearse items--jewelry, etc stuff like that. If I could own one, I so would!!!
  • Vincent Price items--I have most if not all of his movies, so other items would be good.
  • Vintage black jewelry--broken is fine.
  • Bats--not the baseball kind! ANYTHING with them is most awesomely awesome!!!
  • small copper candle holders--the kind you usually see in thrift shops
  • skeleton keys
  • dream catchers

Random info: for tops, I wear size XXL in Juniors sizes, m-l in ladies and m in mens. I CANNOT wear normal earrings. I love bracelets.

bar

Crafts I currently do:

  • Crochet. I only work with yarn, never mastered working with thread. and I've yet to go beyond blankets and scarves!! (i.e. no sweaters or socks). I've also done a couple of beanies. I'm not a yarn snob. I am currently working on a blanket/throw for myself using Red Heart yarn.
  • Sewing. I can sew just about anything. I've made quilts, clothes for people, clothes for 18" dolls, etc. If there's a pattern for it, I can make it.

I have moved away from paper crafts. While I do enjoy doing the various crafts with paper, I just don't have the patience and art skills required to do good work. So instead of stressing myself out about it, I've decided to step away.

.

bar

Things I collect:

  • Dracula by Stoker books, the different covers
  • any non-fiction books dealing with vampires
  • stamps, specifically looking for 90s to current series (no forevers though), used
  • postcards, any but the free kind. Love the vintage from flea markets, etc.
  • Classic Movie Monster items, esp. Dracula, Frankenstein and His Bride
  • Vincent Price items
  • Halloween items, Vintage and Prim is a plus
  • Witches..old, ugly, new, pretty. I love the all.

Star Trek Profile Decoration

Because who doesn’t like some Cumberbatch? :D

I love the graphic on this one. The Enterprise just looks cool anyways.

Pine and Cumberbatch? Oh yeah! I'm guessing there will be a flood of fanfic...

I left spaces in. Got it now. You are fast!

fruitbat5150 on May 20, 2013:

One can always use more Cumberbatch!
