I am a mom to 24 teenage boys, 2 pugs and various other kids who are in and out of my house. I live 7 miles West of the New Jersey shoreline and love it!

I have loved to craft for as long as I can remember and love learning new crafts and techniques. I am an expert and none, but love to try them all.

I love music, it has the power to change your mood instantly! I am a die hard rock fan from the 70s to present.

My absolute favorite things to receive are items that you make! The best swaps I have received thus far are things that you talented women have made that are themed to my LOVES! I will treasure those and the ones I am lucky enough to receive in the future forever. They are all displayed in my craft room!

I pledge to rate you ALWAYS and will ALWAYS contact you before rating you if I have not yet received from you and would appreciate the same courtesy from you :o)
