SilverWing

I love crafts. I sew, crochet, make jewerly, just a little bit of everything. I love polymer clay. I love painting; I do oil painting and murals. I also love to draw. I read all the time. I'm a graphic designer who FINALLY got her first real job! insert happy dance here

If swapping with me: I LOVE anime and Japanese culture. Anything "kawaii" and cute. My favorite Sanrio character is Cinnamoroll! I also love Keropi and Chococat. ^^

Colors: Fav colors are blue, green, silver and black.
I usually wear black or navy or very dark colors.
I decorate in shades of blue with green accents because they calm me. I want my space to remind me of a cool breezy day at the beach. Actually, one day I want my space to BE a cool breezy day at the beach...permenantly! Ah...dreams...

What would I love to recieve:

See my Wishlist below :)

I generally love anything that shows someone put real work into. It makes me happy. I love seeing what other people are really good at. If you make really amazing journals, but you see that I like clay jewelry, make me a journal. I would love to see what YOU are best at. I'm an artist, and I love art, in all forms.

Also, I craft. A lot. So I love craft books. At a loss for me? I can always use a new crafty book. I'm trying to collect japanese ones, but they're hard to get sometimes. Scans are great, too, though!

And, actually, I like books in general, so if you have a book that you think I would just love, that's great too!

Kawaii items and items from Japan! Cultural items, band t-shirts, other cute t-shirts, souvenirs, 100 yen/daiso items, bento boxes, anime figures or other anime items (see "television section below for favorite series), gashapon toys, etc. etc. Also, kawaii hedgehogs and lemons are extra appreciated!

Peek-a-Poohs and other Tomy/Gacha machine toys. I already have all of series 16, though, the Hundred Acre Woods series. ^^ I only need the Gnome from the Garden series, series 12. Any others would be awesome!

Vintage (1980's) My Little Ponies (Wind Whistler is my fav! And the so-soft ponies!)

cute/sexy undies! Yes, I love cute underwear. Please, new undies w/tags only! string bikini preferred, but no granny panties or boyshorts, please. Size 7, unless the brand is known to run small, then an 8 would be great. ;)

anime themed stuff! Right now, Nana is top of the list!

cute/fun tote bags. I collect and use them all the time!

twisted Alice in Wonderland stuff. Not gory, but on the darker side. Especially the Cheshire cat or the Mad Hatter.

t-shirt/tote/cute or punk stuff with the 7 of Spades on it.

Japanese craft books

Cinnamoroll items!

I love just about all music except hard core metal, death metal, industrial, etc. I've had to listen to more than my fair share due to my brother's taste in frightfully loud listening...

I do like Matchbox 20, Savage Garden (old, I know), EverClear, and Jack Johnson makes me extremely happy...I love finding new music, too.

So many...I love Hayao Miyazaki's movies: Howel's Moving Castle, Spirited Away, love My Neighbor Totoro, Laputa, etc. Also Garden State, Dragonheart, Anastasia, Lilo and Stitch, Hurculese (Disney's), Dirty Dancing, Save the Last Dance...Coyote Ugly...I just love movies...actually...

Scrubs! heehee, and Lost.

anime:

Nana - current favorite and obsession! Osaki Nana is my hero! lol

Saiyuki

Fruits Basket

Fullmetal Alchemist

Ghost in the Shell

Utena

Marmalade Boy

Samurai Champloo

Gravitation

did I mention Saiyuki? ^^

video games, because they deserve a place, too!

Kingdom Hearts - I LOVE this series. I was extremely concerned about the Disney aspect...I was afraid it would hurt an otherwise ok RPG, but it turned out well. I still think they could have done it without the Disney, lol, but I love it anyway.

Final Fantasy IV, VII, IX, XI

World of Warcraft - I play a horde blood elf rogue!

if you want or need a listing of any of my fav characters from any of these, don't hesitate to ask!

This section is sort of crazy, because I do a little of everything, and if I haven't tried it, I eventually will. My next one to try, though, is glass etching! ^^

Sewing, crochet, polymer clay...amigurumi, shrinky dinks, jewelry making, scrapbooking...just creating in general, really. I'm hoping to get into book altering and doing "altered arts" soon. I'm in love with Somerset Studio magazine and am hoping to do some pieces inspired by that soon.

Tennessee stuff, like souvenirs and postcards and such.

Crafts - totes, purses, wristlets, cell charms, jewelry, clay figures, t-shirts, crochet scarves, amigurumi, plushies, and much, much more!

Dollar Store goodies

Peek-a-Poohs - for the most part, I currently have access to the Garden series and the Hundred Acre Woods series. When I get to Huntsville, I can also get the Beach ones, right now. ^^

Profile surprise goodies. I like to "stalk" profiles and try to come up with great stuff!

This definatly isn't the full list, but I can't think of anything else right now. If you want to do a one-on-one swap, just message me. I do generally only swap with people whose rating is a 5, as I've been burned on very expensive swaps twice (both international sends on my part, both over $50, and NO swap angel was found) and I'm not repeating that experience, but if you have an imperfect rating for reasons that weren't your fault, then by all means, let me know! ^^
