Morgaine

A lot of people seem to be missing this part in my profile lately, so I will be cheeky and put it at the top before the introductions: I DON'T like pastel colors, the only exception being blue and pink pastels. A lot of people have been sending me stuff in yellow and green pastels, and sometimes a pastel that looks like a bad mix between yellow, green and a little brown. This/these colors are frankly offputting to me, so please don't make/send me anything with these colors, because sorry to be blunt, I won't enjoy it.

My name is Sandie, I am 31 years old and I am married. My husband runs a teambuilding business and I am currently looking for a job, which is turning out to be full-time work with lousy pay. I used to create and produce my own skin and haircare products using only natural ingridients. But that business did not make enough money, so now I am looking for a "real job" as my mother-in-law calls it ;-)

I am a wiccan and a practicing witch and have been so for close to 10 years now. I run a small coven (four members including myself) and we meet every 14 days (almost) without fail. I love all "my girls" and feel blessed to have found them.

Craftwise I don't really think I'm super good and up there with the best or anything, but I do okay. I love handcrafting different things and I always put heart and sould into it. You can see some of the stuff I've done on my Flickr photo page. The more I do/make/create in the crafting department, the more I wanna just go handmade all the way. I enjoy making stuff and hopefully you will enjoy what I make for you if you are my partner in a swap.

I love sweets, but only good quality. I prefer chocolate, cakes, bisquts and caramel/toffee. And NO RAISINS in any of my sweets please. This cannot be written enough, I HATE raisins.

I LOOOOVEEE Pop-tarts. If you want to get me a special treat, give me pop-tarts. I prefer the ones with fruit or berrie filling, but really I'll take any flavor as long as it's pop-tarts ;-)

I like nuts, but anything involving raisins or something in that general familiy is the enemy as far as I am concerned.

I usually only drink cold beverages. Water, juice or some kind of lemonade or ice tea. Rarely soda or anything that has bubbles ;-)

I rarely enjoy a hot beverage, and if I do never coffee. I will drink tea or hot chocolate if the mood stikes.

I don't drink alchohol ever.

I love stuffed animals as well as real ones (my husband and I have a bunny).

Witchwise I collect anything to do with the maiden, mother, crone theme, and the horned god is welcome as well. Anything from pictures to ritual gear to statues/figurines.

Any kind of God or Goddess statues are welcome as well. So far I only have Poseidon and Athena.

Other than that I am really into runes and oracle cards.

My favorite color is blue and I am a water element, not by birth but by everything else I am water through and through ;-)

I usually read young adult books because I like to relax with something that is easy to read.

I mostly read stuff about wicca/witches of some kind. My favorites are the Sweep/Wicca Series, the Balefire series and the Circle of Three series.

I am currently reading the Twilight series.

Tips for bookcrossers or just people who feel like sending me books. I would love the following genres: Sci-fi, fantasy, paranormal, romance, classical (ancient Greece or Rome).

I am open to other stuff as well, just know that I only read fiction. Please don't send me bios, historical fact novels or craft books for that matter.

I am a trekkie and have watched all Star Trek movies and series. I don't really get as much into Star Trek as I used to, but it's still in some way a part of my life as I have many friends that I met through the danish Star Trek fanclub trekkies.dk. This is also where I met my husband.

Besides that some of the favorites include but are not limited to:

Gilmore Girls, Buffy, Angel, Charmed, West Wing, Psych, Battlestar Galactica, House MD, Medium, Ghost Whisperer, Numb3rs, Boston Legal.

I also really like funny half hour shows :-)

Pop-tarts with berrie flavors (except for strawberry, those are the only ones you can get here)

White hot chocolate mix (don't know if this even exits, but I'd love to try it if it does)

Terrys Chocolate Orange Milk (bar form or a whole orange shaped thing)

Kinder Happy Hippos

Any interesting, high quality chocolate you think I should try :-D

Nuts, either dipped in chocolate or mildly spiced like for instance salted, barbeque or paprika nuts (nothing remotely hot please, so no chilinuts or the like)

Tv shows on DVD, any region code. I am up for trying new stuff, so if you have me as a partner for a really big expensive swap a first season of a tv series would be welcome as long as it's nothing listed amoung my favorite shows. Used is more than okay, as long as it plays well. So if you have something you wanna get rid of, you can unload on me ;-) I'm not a big movie fan, so don't send those.

Pagan themed cookie cutters

Pagan themed fridge magnets

Meditation CD's (just music, nothing guided please)

Glitter glue

Regular glitter

Stickers (no Hello Kitty please, and nothing religious except for pagan)

iPhone4 covers (don't have to be new, just clean and presentable)

Spell candles in any color but white and red (those are the only two colors we can get here in Denmark, and only around christmas where people use them to put on the tree)

Magic (compact) facecloths/washcloths (prefably with the themes listed above for the figurines. If you can find pagan themed ones that would be awesome)

Goddess/God statues from the greek pantheon, or really anything related to the greek pantheon (my patron deities are Poseidon and Athena).

Anything to do with ancient Greece in general.

Anything in a maiden, mother, crone theme.

Anything in a horned God theme.

Rune themed items.

Favorite colors are: blue (blue is the most favorite), purple, white and silver. I like bright clear colors, nothing babyish or pastel (which is basically the same to me ;-))

Any jewellery you might wish to send me should be silver or silver look. I'm not allergic, so it does not need to be real. But I don't like gold, so please don't send it or anything that looks like it.

I don't have my ears pierced and I don't do clip-ons either, but I do like making earrings for others ;-)

Anything religious that is not pagan

Anything political

Anything that smells of smoke

Any illegally burned DVD´s or CD´s. I only want originals.

Anything to curse people, bring them bad luck or any other dark/bad magic stuff.

Incense

Oil for oilburners

Herbs with very strong scents

Scented candles (give me a horrible headache)

Things to do tarot spreads on. I rarely use tarot as my divination of choice and when I do I do my own personal speads, so ready made cloths with laid out patterns for a spread will be of little use for me.

Coffee

Kool-aid

Anything with alchohol in it

Make-up

Bath and beauty products (I only use my own)

Earrings of any kind

Postcards (unless they are handmade by you)

Bookmarks (unless handmade and related to my profile)

Die Cuts

Please PM me if you are interested in doing private swaps. Especially if you can send me Pop-tarts :-D We can talk about what I can send you in exchange.

always rate the swaps you send and always send out my swaps on time or let you know if they will be late.

I DO NOT flake on swaps. If you don't get the swap it is the fault of the postal service and NOT ME. Please PM me before you give a bad rating so I at least have a chance to resend. I tresure my good ratings and would like to keep them good :-)
