About Me

.Hi I am a swapbot addict I Love my french style apartment and my family i have four sons 3 grown and flown one still at home. I finally got a grand daughter and love her to bits,I also love my little undercover apartment cat Poppy (the cat you have when the lease says you cant have a cat hehe ) Favourite colours -duck egg blues ,and white and moss greens,dusty pinks..I am starting to decorate in the french provincial style.My son keeps me busy he has Aspergers and i craft to save my sanity although some would say its way too late ! .My blog really says it all Feel free to visit. I am single again and movied\ from my vintage stocked big house to a small 2 bedroom apartment hmm how that was gonna happen i didnt know, I am certainly not a minimalist rather a maximist. I have a sister who is also my best friend she is also a crafter.We inspire each other or as the case maybe we lead each other astray in buying craft supplies.

Favorite Crafts

I am into all sorts of paper crafts i adore doing Atc cards matchboxes ,scrapbooking digital collage and anything new (like button fairies) Inchies and altered arts Please dont send fabric as i dont sew (sewing and i have never seen eye to eye lol)I do however love pretty braids and trim that i can use in craftwork.I suppose my craft style is shabby and vintage but id say more elegant than cute.I love dusty pink and grey blue at present I love all kinds of brads

Favourite things

I adore gingerbread men,snowmen and Santas as well as pixies and fairies. I love bluebirds and tiny birds and eggs and nests .Im crazy about keys specially old ones.I love lipgloss and bangles. Mini anything American like uncle sam..Actually i adore anything teeny tiny miniature probably because i am so short lol I love Mary Engelbreit and charms of every kind and all sorts of things I love address labels can never have enough and miniature luggage as in mini suitcases trunks hatboxes etc..i love all sorts of keys and tiny locks.Roses i love and hearts.Old sheet music and old cards.Broken jewllery bits.I am also partial to scrapbooking bits.I love old photographs especially sepia.Old millinery flowers any old bits and bobs thats me lol

I collect

Well if you ask my family that would be everything lol I love vintage am mad for vintagethings that others sometimes consider junk..I love them to be loved and to look it.I collect vintage children's party things and toys.Rabbits,dices,spinning tops old Christmas ornaments and old books.I collect gingerbread men,snowmen and Santas as well as pixies and fairies.

OMG, your little tussie mussie is so cute! Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness; I loved everything about it, including the little box it was in!! When I opened it, it felt like fairy dust was sprinkling about. And thank you for introducing me to tussie mussie swaps! I have been having fun making them, Phyllis

I got the second baby bonnet and it is gorgeous! I was just looking on Etsy for ideas for newborn photo props and nothing was even close to that lovely! I can't wait to take pix of my little guy in that bonnet! The stamp will be fab for my shabby projects and I'll have to find a tiny cute jar for the beautiful smelling soap. Thanks sooooo much.
