My Etsy Shop

Hi there! Thanks for taking the time to look at my profile! I am 29, live in Florida with my 4 year old daughter M, my boyfriend Chubbs, and our dog Cayenne. I have a full time job, am a mom, run an etsy shop, and love to swap! I tend to collect crafting items more than I use them lately. :P

I am always up for a private swap!!! Message me if you are interested!

I ALWAYS send & I always rate, usually on the day I've received. If I have somehow missed rating you, please message me.

I re-use/recycle packaging and I hope you do the same! =D

I had a short lived obsession with the Twilight Saga... I even founded a group called Twihards that was active 2010-2011, until I took a full time position at work, and was unable to dedicate as much time to swapping as I had in the past. The group is still open, but not active. I really love swapping here and have had a lot of fun swapping with everyone! Crafting is my stress-relief. Between my job, my boyfriend, daughter, family and friends.... Life is pretty hectic, but I ALWAYS make time for crafting/swap-bot. It helps me wind down, and I love anything that can bring out the best in me, while de-stressing!

I spend most of my time working, or to put items up in my etsy shop, as well as spending time with my daughter and boyfriend, so I dont get to craft as much as I used to, or would like to. I occassionally make Resin pieces for necklaces, keychains, & rings. I spend time making cupcake toppers to sell on my etsy shop. They are super cute on cupcakes! I also make polymer clay charms, thumbtacks, magnets, ect..

• 5/1/13 I just got a smashing journal (the pre-made kind from Michaels) and supplies to go with it... I am super excited about adding things to it! I have started a couple circus/carnival themed pages, and would love to add more to them! I have also started a page of birds, and a page of silhouettes. I am always looking for things to add to these pages!

In the past, I have enjoyed making inchies, twinchies, ATC's, Tiny felt stuffies, Altered Matchboxes, Card Making, Scrapbooking, putting together craft kits or inspirational kits, big boutique style hair bows,post cards, amongst other things, and I hope in the future, or as time allows, I am able to craft more.

I have even inspired my sisters to begin swapping here (they are very crafty and artistically inclined and we all share the same love for creating new things)

• My sister Savvi on Swap-bot

• My sister Stacy on swap-bot

I have a daughter who is 4 months old. She loves cookies, her sniffy blankets, and toys. Mikaylas middle name is partially "Skye" so she has a lot of things with stars. And sky decor.

Update: 2012. My daughter is now almost 4 YEARS old! lol. She is having a Hello Kitty Themed Birthday, and is super excited about it!

She really loves Hello Kitty. So any HK stickers, coloring pages, ect will most likely end up in her hands! =D She loves seeing what mommy gets in the mailbox and often asks if she can receive mail too. She has even 'mailed' letters to her grandfather who passed away last year. I would like to do kid friendly swaps for her!

What she would like to receive (for any kids swaps I join for her) would be:

Hello Kitty stickers, memo pads or notepads/notebooks. ect. Adventure Time anything! Super cute plushies Anything sky, cloud, or starry. Especially material large enough to make a toss pillow sized pillow, stickers, crafts, decotape, ect... Stickers (different characters & images) A Sticker Book Colored pictures or crafts created by your little one. Notepads Coloring books Hand crafted jewelry (she is but a princess, of course!) Poppin Kitchen/Happy Kitchen kits Kawaii plushies and squishies

Anything kid friendly & unopened. =D

My Boyfriend: Enjoys baseball, football, the weather, video games & video game accessories, & wrestling. He is a great guy with a big heart, and can always make me laugh. He is sarcastic, goofy & a big nerd & I love him. We enjoy watching shows on Netflix together. He is a gamer! I love watching him play!

MY FAVORITE PLACES TO BUY KAWAII: Online. I do not have any stores nearby that sell kawaii, (thank goodness, Id probably drop a small fortune and forget to pay my bills if there were!) Kawaiiya, ShopKawaii, Janesstore.com, Kawaiidepot.com, are my favorite kawaii shops. If you know of any others that accept and ship to the US, please let me know!

THINGS I DO NOT WISH TO RECEIVE:

I love tea. I cannot use loose-leaf tea at this time as I do not own a loose leaf tea infuser. So bagged only, please. I do own a Keurig machine so Kcups are always welcome, if you'd like to send those. Especially teas!

I love Sweet Cinnamon Spice Tea, Flavored Green Teas, ect. I Do not like English Breakfast Tea. I do not like Crystal Light singles as the only flavors I can stand are lemonade and raspberry green tea. I do not truly care for things with aspartame or other artificial sweeteners. I prefer to use honey or raw sugar to sweeten things.

I love trying new flavors, and foreign teas.
