Thanks for asking but I am currently not accepting any requests for swaps, private or otherwise, til my summer camp is over. Please pm me in September when I will be bored out of my mind though!
I own a creative arts studio - check out http://www.claycafechantilly.com! and run an art non profit - visit http://www.herndonarts.org. I run a huge summer art camp so things are a little crazy over the summer but it's all good. I'm happily married to a very non crafty hubby and have one very crafty 11 year old daughter.
I am a self taught origami and paper artist but I am also into ceramics, mosaic and glass fusion. I knit but I can't crochet to save my life. I draw, doodle, and paint but mostly I love my Sharpies:) Hope my work makes you smile!
Styles I like: eclectic, world/ethnic, tropical, modern art, graphic, anime, clever, hand drawn.
Styles I do NOT like: vintage, victorian, zetti, lace, nudes, gothic/dark or religious, country.
Styles that are okay in small doses: kawaii, americana, art deco, tribal
LIKES: Love bright colors, unusual shapes, nature, pretty, happy stuff! Fav colors include pink, red, black, blue, burgundy, purple!
I've recently discovered how much fun it is to bento so I am in search of lots of bento items: egg/rice molds, chopsticks in cases, dividers, picks, sauce containers.
I'm also always happy to receive: Mix CDs, chunky books, amigurumis, kids craft idea books, mosaic'd anything, new placemats and napkins, beaded bracelets, funky sox, matchbox/altered tins, bottlecap magnets, filled matchboxes or matchbox shrines, natural/handmade soaps or shampoos. Like citrus-y, clean scents, not floral or overly fruity.
I'm a notorious early mailer and I send all my swaps the first day or two after partners are assigned so please contact me if one of my packages has gone MIA!! I always resend ATCs!
Other miscellaneous items I like: handmade jewelry, glass beads, ATCs, handmade notecards (but not postcards), interesting papers (especially origami ones;), small candies; finger puppets; fiber crafts (anything knit, crocheted or stitched); mosaic anything; funky pens/altered pens; table linens/napkins/placemats, interesting bars of soap; altoids or other mints; sugar free gum; amulet bags, black teas; chocolates of any variety (but only in the winter months).
Things I don't like to receive: anything vintage; fabric/lace/ribbon (have too much already!!); chunky embellishments; plain papers; incense or anthing with a strong odor; herbal or decaf teas; anything licensed; recipes; bookmarks; or books.
Please NO dollar store cosmetics, candles, candy/food, or personal care products - thanx!
ALLERGIES: Smoke, cat hair - if you send anything that's smokey or cat hairy, unfortunately I have to toss it out so please either air out the item really well or make sure it is sealed in the original mfr packaging! Thank you!
jazz, pop/rock, world, hawaiian, top 40, whatever's in the cd player at the time:)
