I live in New York and work in music. I also sell paintings and do artwork for bands. Can't wait to swap with you!

I totally can't stand....ANYTHING ON TOP 40 RADIO, Rap (unless its indie hip hop like K-0s), Country, Classic Rock (except for The Band), Techno/Dance Music (like you would find in a club), Ska, Heavy Metal,Hard Rock, Grunge, and ewwww PLEASE DON'T SEND ME ANYTHING THAT HAS DAVE MATTHEWS IN IT. lol. Yeesh! I also hate 90's music for the most part.

Making doll dresses and clothes, especially for my Blythes. Sewing stuffies, sock creatures, felties and sometimes dotees. Painting and drawing...and making tote bags. I also make tee shirts.

I pretty much like any fabric or material as long as it is not made of a dead animal. I'm not a big fan of fur fake or real, but especially not real lol. I also don't dig floral prints.

All colors are fine with me!

All patterns are fine with me too :) I usually like funky things, retro, vintage, mod, etc. I'm not too big on big 'pink and green florals' though.

I DISLIKE DISNEY RELATED ITEMS. I also don't usually like to get food and candy in the mail. Most times it melts before it even gets to me in which case it becomes 'mystery food'.

Cute little Mushroom items.Cute pins and pens. Christmas decorations and Christmas related items of any sort.Mod/Hipster type things.Cute birds/owls items. Fabric.
