About Me

Hey everyone!

Iā€™m a 20-year-old girl from Belgium with a big love for all things crafty. A few years ago, I started looking for penpals from all over the world and discovered how much fun it is to make cute letters. Since then, my love for crafting has only grown stronger. I've been diving into all sorts of crafts like making postcards, creating jewelry, junk journaling, bookbinding, and more!

Recently, I heard about this website and just had to give it a try. It sounds like an amazing experience!

So, now you know why Iā€™m here. Let me share a bit more about myself. I study classical singing and Iā€™m on track to finish my first bachelorā€™s degree this year. Outside of my studies, I also sing in our university choir. Itā€™s such an amazing group of people, and together we create a safe and joyful place for music lovers.

Favorite Crafts

Iā€™m a craft enthusiast who loves dabbling in almost every type of craft imaginable! Here are my top favorites:

Junk Journaling/Scrapbooking: I absolutely adore turning random bits and pieces I have lying around into something beautiful and meaningful. It's like magic!

Making Postcards: Whenever thereā€™s a birthday, you can bet Iā€™m the one crafting the card. Handmade cards add a special touch, donā€™t you think?

Painting: Lately, Iā€™ve been diving into the world of paint. Watercolors are my jam, but Iā€™m still on a learning journey. Each brushstroke is an adventure!

Creating Custom Journals: After watching a fantastic YouTube video, I was inspired to start making my own journals. Now, I can craft them with thread or just some clip rings. Got any tips? I'd love to hear them!

Jewelry Making: Iā€™ve been a bit lazy with this hobby lately, but Iā€™m gearing up to jump back in during the vacation. Sparkly creations, here I come!

Fantasy and Fairytales: I'm captivated by fantastical worlds, mythical creatures, and classic fairytales. Anything with a touch of magic or whimsy is sure to make me smile.

Dark Academia Aesthetic: I'm drawn to the moody and mysterious vibes of dark academia, with its vintage books, gothic architecture, and scholarly motifs.

Cottagecore Delights: I love the cozy and quaint aesthetic of cottagecore, with its floral patterns, rustic charm, and nods to simpler times.

Space and Celestial: I'm fascinated by the wonders of the universe, so anything with a cosmic themeā€”stars, planets, constellationsā€”is right up my alley.

Steampunk Style: I'm intrigued by the retro-futuristic world of steampunk, with its Victorian-era technology and industrial charm.

Retro 80s Revival: I have a soft spot for all things retro, especially the vibrant colors and bold patterns of the 1980s.

Art Deco Glamour: I'm enamored with the elegance and sophistication of the Art Deco era, with its geometric shapes, luxurious materials, and bold colors.

Carnival Carnival: I'm captivated by the whimsy and wonder of the carnival, with its colorful rides, dazzling lights, and playful atmosphere.

Dislikes

Sports-related items: Without much interest in sports, I'm not as enthusiastic about receiving items with sports-related themes.

Religious or political themes: While I enjoy exploring diverse topics and themes in crafting, I prefer to keep religious and political themes out of my creative endeavors.

Graphic horror or gore: As I'm not interested in horror themes, I might not appreciate receiving items with graphic horror or gore imagery. That does not include Halloween(-;

Comment: I wanted to reach out to express my heartfelt thanks for the incredible ATCs you created! Each piece is a miniature masterpiece. The hand-painted echinacea flowers are vibrant with colour, capturing the delicate beauty of nature. The collage of the sailing boat is so creative and full of character; it feels like a tiny escape to the open sea. And the green forest piece, combining paint and collage, is a serene and peaceful work that truly evokes the magic of the woods. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and creativity. These cards are a true gift to treasure! D

Comment: WOW! I absolutely love all of the great things you shared with me! I think your thrift stores must be better than the ones near me, to find such interesting things. (I used to live in a state with much better ones, so they can definitely be found in the US, it's just where I live now they are not as good!) Anyway, thank you so much for the great swap and your nice letter. I love how you used the page from the photo album to package it all, too - what a neat idea!
