Hi...I'm a 34yo mother of 2 boys aged 14 and 5 and love to craft whenever they give me a chance.
I'm an Indigenous Australian and I love my people and culture.
At the moment I'm living in a city called Adelaide, although I'm originally from the town of Cairns.

I'm a girly girl and I love all thing vintage, and by that I mean from the late 40's to early 70's.

For swaps for household things my house is Ethnic themed, Reds and earth colours, think Bali, Indonesia, Africa, Aboriginal.

Because most of my swaps will be international I will try to get my packages out before the send date to avoid any delays.
I'm not sure how to give peace of mind to fellow swappers about flaking but I will take photos of all swaps and keep my receipts.
I will send out every swap I'm involved in and hope you all do the same.
If for some reason you do not receive the swap please message me and I will be more than willing to resend. If you have any concerns or questions please message me asap.
Thank You and happy swapping!!

Did you know that in Africa women and girls don't have access to sanitary pads. Because of this many women use dirty rags, camel hide, newspapers or stay locked in a hut for that dreaded week every month, many young girls miss out on school or just drop out all together. I've started sewing reusable pads to donate, as a woman I think this is very important. I'm hopeing that by getting the word out there some of you may be able to help out a sister in need. The website goods 4 girls Goods 4 Girls has patterns and information on how to make a huge change in some one elses life by doing such a little thing. So come on ladies, help a sister out and help change the world one pad at a time....Thanks, Kerri
