About Me

I'm taking a break from Swap-Bot for a while. I hope to be back soon. I just don't feel interested in playing with a community that descends like a pack of hounds on a person who might be late sending, or be having trouble RL. I'd like to thank all the awesome swappers I've swapped with, hope to see you soon!

I'm a Library Officer with a dash of IT support, coffee lover, animal lover, vegetarian, laughterloving fuzznut. I love my dogs, my planet, books, oh all kinds of fun stuff!

I'm located in Australia, so if your items aren't there when the send time is up, please allow a little extra. I swear sometimes they just strap the mail to dolphins and hope for the best.

Favorite Crafts

Crochet, a little bit of papercraft, learning needlefelting, bead stringing, sewing. I dabble!

Loves

Frogs are my big lurve.

Spots, stripes and retro patterns.

Big bright BOLD colours!

Red is my all time favourite colour, but I love (almost) all colours - warm are best, but colour itself is so brilliant I could squee right here.

Earthy tones

Yarn of all kinds.

Letter writing sets, papers, pens, notebooks, stickers - I have a stationary addiction!

Did I mention frogs? I did? Okay then!

Animals.

Best scents: Vanilla, lavender, citrus, coffee.

Oooh I sure do love tea and coffee. Yum. And chocolate! But please don't send tea or coffee from overseas, because Quarrantine has to burn it, and that's a tragic waste of delicious.

Handmade items are always always brilliant.

Books. New, used, pristine or battered.

I love craft supplies even for stuff I don't list as "doing", because it's fun to try new stuff :D

Not Loved.

Pink, or pastel colours.

Make up - I don't use it.

Anime.

Frilly, lacy stuff.

It's hard listing Not loves!

We cleared up pink, right? Good.

I have no allergies.

I'm vegetarian, so meaty stuff is out, but leather is fine. I'm not, you know, militant.

Stuff I collect

I collect frogs, obviously.

I also love postcards, particularly vintage Australian which I have in an album even. I collect general postcards too, but those are just in a box, I'm lazy! If you're sending me a postcard, please skip the envelope. I like em stamped.

I love photographic stuff, expired film is ALWAYS welcome! Makes for interesting images :D I take 35 and 110 formats.

Smokers -

If you are a smoker and you're worried about your packages smelling bad, don't. I smoke too and won't notice.

Non smokers I send to - I do my very best to make sure what you get isn't smokey and yuk, but sadly I have 4 smokers in my house and it's not always possible to totally avoid smokey smells.

Comment: Holy toledo! Nine. Nine!!! postcards over 3 days. Of course the mailman couldn't possibly deliver them all on the same day, but it was really neat, once I realized there were more, to see what else was coming. Thank you!
Response: I'm just glad they all made it! I've had the worst luck with postcards of recent. Glad you enjoyed it!
