About Me

I promise to ALWAYS rate. Also, If anything comes postage due to you, please let me know and I will fix. I almost always send items in re-used packaging, but only secure and clean ones. I will always look at your profile and try my best to fit the swap to you!

I recently relocated to the Austin, Texas area where I live with my husband, nine year old daughter and our cat, Mitzi.

For those of you sending mail to my daughter, Beate, she loves craft supplies, stickers, anything kawaii, items from other countries and cats. We gave up TV, but she does love iCarly. She's pretty happy with any color other than orange, which she really dislikes.

I like private swaps too. Just contact me!

Favorite Crafts

I love all kinds of arts and crafts!

Here are just a few on my list: ATCs, embroidery, sewing (bags, Dotee & "monster" dolls, pins), collage, photography, drawing, painting, stamping, linoleum cuts, crocheting and DIY clothes.

I love learning new things and sharing ideas with others.

I have some tutorials on my Flickr page, which is listed in the links above.

Favorite Music

Goth, RPM (Electronica), Punk, Global, but I'm pretty eclectic! Some favorite bands of mine are: Ladytron, Sigur Ros, Royksopp, The Knife, Dead Can Dance, Placebo, Bauhaus, Devotchka, Morrissey, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, David Gahan, Tiga, Moby (older stuff), Cocteau Twins, The Cure (older stuff), My Brightest Diamond, Lily Allen, Muse... and many more.

Favorite Books

Authors I Love: Ray Bradbury, Paulo Coehlo, Hermann Hesse.

Themes I Love: sci-fi, fantasy, post-apocalyptic futurism, vintage, steampunk.

Favorite Movies

Sci-Fi, some anime, fantasy and foreign films are my first choices...

Just a few: Amalie, Labyrinth, City of Lost Children, Corpse Bride, Mirrormask, Young Frankenstein, Delicatessen, Kiki's Delivery Service, Pan's Labyrinth, The Ninth Gate, Wristcutters: A Love Story, Gattacca

Favorite Television

I gave up TV and watch what I can see online, mostly through Hulu.

Here are some shows I really like though: Glee, Warehouse 13, Doctor Who, My Family (BBC), House, The Simpsons, American Dad, Futurama, Pucca, Scrubs (original), Twilight Zone (original).

Comment: Thank you for the lovely pillow! You did an excellent job with the stitching! I will have to put it in a special place so my Boo Boy and Aslan (dog and cat) do not claim is for themselves! And thank you for the buttons and yo-yos!

Comment: Thank you for the dotee doll! How did you know this shade is my very favourite red?? Is it a big red snowflake (my guess) or a snow butterfly (my son's guess)?
Response: Wow, I guess it was luck picking that color. She's a big snowflake since you liked winter and snow I went with that theme. Glad you like it!
