About Me

If you are sending any swaps to me I'd really like it if you could put at least one stamp on the package! I collect used postage stamps so any chance I get I love to receive them in the mail. =D

Hiya! I'm Brittany. I'm a collector of many random things and I love crafting =)

My current hobbies are sewing, crocheting, roleplaying, and collecting many things.

I read sometimes too, but not lately. I love the Jacky Faber series, Hush Hush Series, Maximum Ride Series, Anita Blake Series, and most Vampire & Werewolf books. I am also trying to find some good amigurumi books as well as soft sculpture plush toy books for sewing!

Please keep in mind that I have 2 dog & 4 cats. They all shed and due to this your swaps may get a little pet hair on them. I do try to keep their hair off of my things but sometimes stray hairs find a way onto things.

Favorite Music

I have many favorites in music. Artists I am currently listening to are:

  • Coldplay
  • 30 Seconds To Mars
  • Adam Lambert
  • La Roux
  • The Ready Set
  • Muse
  • Lady Gaga
  • Linkin Park
  • My Chemical Romance
  • Basshunter
  • Josh Groban
  • Paramore
  • Eisley
  • Robert Pattinson
  • And a few others..

Favorite Movies

I don't got to the theater very often because of work..But I do have quite a collection of movies at home. Some of my favs are:

  • Studio Ghibli films (especially Howl's Moving Castle & My Neighbor Totoro)
  • How To Train Your Dragon
  • Alice
  • Tim Burton's Alice In Wonderland
  • Pirate's of the Caribbean
  • Lord of the Rings
  • Disney's Bolt
  • All of Tim Burton's films (Especially Edward Scissorhands & Nightmare Before Christmas)
  • The Day After Tomorrow
  • The Dark Knight
  • Undiscovered
  • Knowing
  • The Proposal
  • Just Friends
  • Remember Me

I also love really scary and gorey films such as Saw..Weird and twisted i know..

Favorite Television

I am currently watching:

  • Fringe
  • House M.D
  • Hell's Kitchen
  • Project Runway
  • Survivor
  • Bones
  • Dexter
  • True Blood

I'm sure there are others, but I can't recall them at the moment.

Favorite Crafts

Well let's see, currently I only sew and crochet. I love making scarves and various Amigurumi. I enjoy finding new patterns and testing out my skills in crocheting.

I really love using Vanna's choice yarns. I'm not a fan of Red Heart yarn unless it's the soft type. But my absolute favorite yarns are ones that are super soft and fuzzy.

As for sewing, I mostly make fleece hats and plushies. I have all of my creations posted in my flickr sets =)

Hi, Brittany! I saw on your flickr that you have a supercute grey kitty! You should enter her in The Grey Cats Contest! :D

Gorgeous Hats! Truly inspiring pieces

thehappyhoneybee on Apr 18, 2011:

Hey there--I saw your City of Bones and Scott Westerfeld books and thought I'd invite you to check out our YA book discussion + swap group District 13. Please consider joining (and adding the appropriate info to your profile) if you're interested. Cheers!

Happy Holidays! tree

Hi there, I was just checking out your flickr photos. I absolutely love your Edward Cullen and can't wait to see if you make any more. I would love to see a Jane or Victoria doll. I would like to try a Lady Gaga doll, just think of the fun of making all her accesories and mad outfits and killer heels.

cobaltgypsy on Oct 24, 2010:

@Rikkuliam your stuff is interesting, but I must caution you about Flickr's rules against labelling something "for sale" or "sale" or by listing prices on them. I got in trouble a couple of years ago for doing just that, and they made me remove all those photos and threatened to cancel my pro-account.

Happy Swap-bot birthday!

Just wanted to let you know I created a new ATC swap with Tim Burton as theme for the new Foundation 42-group.
I hope you will like the swap and maybe join as you listed him as one of your F42-fandoms.
Just 1 week left to sign up! If you have any questions or suggestion, feel free to pm me :-)

(PS: ATCs can also be completely drawn/painted/sewn/... ^_^)
