POSTCARDS

My ultimate addiction! I love getting cards, my “wish list” is: -Elvis Presley and Graceland -Map cards -Touristy cards that show famous sites -Route 66 -vampire/zombie/cemetaries/funeral related -Outhouses -Stonehenge, famous colloseums, famous buildings -gnomes -Burlesque/Bettie Page/risqué -typewriters -strange and unusual -”freaky” or scary cards -lighthouses, ocean/sunset scenes, anything "pretty" in nature.

I also like things related to taxidermy, funeral, embalming and the like.

if you have any Jackalope postcards, statues, or the like I'd love to have them as well!

if your state has a "license plate" postcard I'd love to have it, also any state capital buildings, state flag/bird would be welcome too. I've finally gotten all 50 state map cards, but would be more than happy to get more---there are so many varieties i always welcome them.

Zazzle cards are ok, I love zazzle I do not prefer handmade cards.

ELONGATED PENNIES

Always seeking these, either in a set or random. Looking for great pressed penny books as well. If you have any of these, I’d love you for it! I accept all types of pennies, nickles, dimes or even elongated quarters.

LETTER SETS/STATIONERY

I love paper. Any sizes, all of it gets used. Anything from cute to bizarre to obscene. Doesn’t have to have matching envelopes. I do like note cards as well, but usually of nature, cute, unusual, or color blocked. I do not like note cards that are covered in flowers or paisleys, unless that are exceptionally different.

I also like sealing wax and presses.

MAGNETS

i LOVE fridge magnets. Touristy, Souvenir city/state names/ shaped like the state, famous sites or attractions, Halloween, goofy or strange.

SNOWGLOBES

I love to get city/state snowglobes (or dolphin) for my daughter...she's starting a collection

SOUVENIRS

I love souvenirs from other cities/states/countries. Magnets, snowglobes, Elongated Pennies, tshirts (size XXL) funny knick-knacks that you find in souvenir shops, strange items.

BOOKS

I love classics, like old editions of Poe, Emerson, Chaucer, etc. Love original Anne Rice (like the vampire chronicles), like Fiction and Romance, some true crime, not fond of bio unless its on Elvis or Famous Poets, I love compilations of poetry, "best of " erotic series (they come out yearly) any new best sellers. Pretty much, if you see it has any sort of decent plot, I'll read it. LOL I also like horror and black comedy, like "abraham lincoln, vampire killer", etc.

MUSIC I like all music, with emphasis on Elvis. :-) I also love Mozart, Beethoven, Compilations of new music, like "now that's what I call music" and soundtracks. I'm a gleek, but have no music from the show. I like new country, ie Trade Adkins, Rodney Atkins, Eric Church, etc. I'm pretty easy musically, I listen to lots of different kinds!

OTHER I have been really into apothocary jars and the look, I can find then usually at Halloween here, no other time. I also appreciate any address lables as well, with themes similar to above. :) In candles I prefer "fruity" scents, like Pineapple, coconut, pomegranate, mixes. I do like some flowers but it's limited, night jasmine and lilac are about the only ones that don't give me a migraine. PLEASE don't send me anything coffee scented---I gag at the smell of coffee.

In BOOKMARKS I prefer store bought, love the metal ones with sayings/quotes on them. But also like the plastic or paper ones. Fav color is orange. Like sayings on them, halloween (or just creepy) egyptian, regional or touristy, etc.

I love Halloween, the creepy nature of it, and accept things Halloween at any time of the year. I am in mortuary, so anything pertaining to cemeteries, funeral directing, embalming, etc is loved. I prefer "old" to cutesy, but really you cant' go wrong with Halloween!

I will always take fabric as well, but on the above topics, don't just send generic fabric to me, it'll only get tossed. If you have any on the topics I've already listed, I'll totally use it!

I also have 2 small kids, both who love dolphins and dancing and disney. My older one loves to write to other kids and collects postcards and paper too. We all love the NIghtmare Before Christmas

I LOVE poetry (poe, emerson, Dante, Voltaire, etc etc) and love the stories from 15c to 19c, any exchanges of old books of poetry, like from a paperback exchange will be loved. If you can find any scrapping items with poetry on them as well I'd love to have it.

Please do not send me anything religious.

No tea/food/candy.

I go to the mailbox (eagerly) daily, and don't "forget" to register anything. Please email me if you do not receive something from me---I DO NOT flake, I mail out within 48 hours of a swap close, if you didn't get, either it was pinched or tragedy struck. Either way I will make it right!
Happy swapping.
