About Me

Hi! My name is Jenny and I'm 35 years old. I live in small down Ontario, Canada with a beautiful 11 year old son, a supportive husband, 3 crazy cats, 1 sweet dog, 1 wood chipper bunny and a bearded dragon that keeps us all in line. So my house is pretty much a freakin' petting zoo.

I love creating. I love the whole process of having an idea to planning it out to completing an item with my own two hands. I love showing my friends my newest creations. It's like show 'n tell only I call it "Look what Jenny made!"

Me 'n swap-bot are a perfect match! I can't believe I just discovered it. I LOVE (and I mean LOVE) receiving things in the mail. It feels like Christmas every time I see a little package or a pretty envelope in my mail box.

Favorite Music

THE CULT! all time favourite band!

The Cliks - saw them live when they opened for THE CULT!

hmmm, depends how I'm feeling or what I'm doing. I love most 80's music. When doing housework it's got to be The Prodigy or Chemical Brothers. For driving, the radio will do - any alternative station. But sometimes I just prefer the quiet... when the husband and son are off to school : )

Favorite Books

When I have time to read....mostly fantasy.

Favorite Movies

Horror - any vampire/warewolf movie that's not too bloody. Horror/Comedy - SHAUN OF THE DEAD! Chick Flick - Shakespear in Love Action - The Fifth Element (dunno why, I just like it!) Drama - Big Fish Fantasy - Narnia Musical - OMG Sweeney Todd of course! The performance I saw when I was in highschool didn't quite have the same budget for fake blood as the Tim Burton version... p.s. Johnny Depp is amazing in this. The Sound of Music is OK too lol. Sci-Fi - does 12 Monkeys fit in this category? (hmm, maybe it's a Bruce Willis thing lol) Childrens/anything rated G - when you have a child you see them all.... but all time favs would be Shrek 2, Emperor's New Groove, Road to Eldorado

Favorite Television

Discovery Channel - Myth Busters FTW!

closet Buffy fan. I own the whole series on dvd.

Favorite Crafts

Resin, it's my newest addiction.

Jewelry, see resin above

Sewing/Quilting, but never make enough time to do it

Stained Glass, see sewing above

and I'm really starting to enjoy paper crafting! and decoupage. If my husband were to sit still long enough I'd probably decoupage him!

and tonnes more that's on my "TO DO" list pmc, chainmaille, lampwork, pottery, crochet, knitting.....

Things I Collect

Sid Dickens Blocks - I love the look of art blocks arranged together on a wall.

Original ACEOs/ATCs - was addicted to ebay a few years ago (true story)

Handmade Journals - but I'm too afraid to write anything in them for fear of wrecking them.

Purses/Handbags - and I rarely carry a purse. I'm more a jeans pocket kinda girl. But if I see a cool purse (vintage is my fave) at a thrift shop I'll take it home.

Pumpkins! - I think it may have something to do with my birthday being near the end of October but I LOVE pumpkins, their shape, their colour.

Handmade items! - I LOVE Etsy and really good quality handmade items. I almost always prefer handmade vs. store bought.

Things I'm starting to collect - Note cards, postcards, stickers, pretty stationary, handmade envies, Japanese fabric, chiyogami paper, any old ephemera, handmade stuffies/softies, buttons (sewing), kawaii, kokeshi dolls, owls

I also love it when people use real postage stamps (instead of post office printed labels) on envelopes/postcards/packages. I enjoy seeing postage stamps from different countries.

Things that don't interest me

Disney stuff
