About Me

hey!! I'm Whitney. I like making things and doing stuff to keep my somewhat short attention span occupied. Things I currently love doing are crafting in many forms, sewing, watching movies, listening to music, making themed mix CD's, and drawing. I am also interested in graphic design, stationary design, etc.

My roommate and I are in the process of starting a business, so we're pretty excited and busy with that!

My current favorite craft is collage/found art.

Favorite Music

A few bands I love include Self, Radiohead, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Tortoise, Ben Folds, Ratatat, Of Montreal, and Architecture in Helsinki.

As far as genres go, I pretty much like most anything except country.

Introduce me to new tunes!

Favorite Crafts

knitting, sewing, drawing/painting, mix CD's, care packages, making stationary.

Favorite Television

Glee, Dexter, My So-Called Life, The Office, Sunny in Philadelphia, Flight of the Conchords, Kids in the Hall, Mr. Show, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development.

Favorite Movies

Amelie, Paris JeTaime, anything Tim Burton has touched, Little Miss Sunshine, The Life Aquatic, I Heart Huckabees, My Cousin Vinny, Shaun of the Dead, Wet Hot American Summer.

Swap Ethics

I do not flake. I have not not mailed a swap ever and don't plan on changing that. If you do not receive a swap from me, please message me and I will rectify the situation.

If I'm late on a swap, which occasionally happens, I will message you to let you know, and I will make it worth your wait with extra goodies. ;)

I added this section because I've been having issues with my local post office and a couple of my packages have ended up lost and/or back on my door step. I'm not sure why this has been happening lately, but I didn't want anyone to think I'm a bad swapper! :)

You are an awesome swapper!!!

Comment: Thank you for the donut stuffie and lip gloss. Although your embroidery is very well done, the swap did say "Make it cute, and make it with sprinkles! Beads, felt pieces, etc." Kinda bummer there are no sprinkles. But thanks! :)
Response: Yikes, I must have mis-read that swap, I'm sorry! I thought those were just suggestions. Well I'm glad you liked it anyway. I'll have to pay more attention next time.

I got a second box of love sent on from blair (cbpoole) on Saturday and have again been left speechless at the generousity...Thank You so much for the little bird painting, it is bright and cheerful, and thank you for your kind words in your card, they mean a lot to me (p.s. I love robins the best too)
