IT'S ALL ABOUT ME

Smart Fokker

Home Sweet Home

I reuse packaging.


Thinking of Cheryl

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am married with 2 children and 4 grandchildren.
I teach children with autism.

I have an eclectic nature and I am a hippie at heart

I love silver jewelry such as Stacking rings and rings made out of vintage spoons. Steampunk jewelry, earrings(hoops and dangles) ,bangles and charm bracelets.

I love earth tones and jewel tones~ the combination of red brick and ochre yellow, sapphire blue and sunflower yellow like the colours of Tuscany and Provincial

I AM NOT INTO DISNEY OR KAWII OR ANYTHING OVERLY CUTE OR SWEET but I do love the CLASSIC POOH (JUST NOT DISNEY)

I adore shopping and lurking in thrift shops, antique stores and flea markets

I love the work of Klimt and Monet and the Group of Seven. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~http://farm4.static.flickr.com

THIS ABOUT SUMS IT UP.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ephemera is the window into our past
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I give lots of hearts, but not for extras." Hag 53 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sometimes greed just takes over.
I have always thought this site was to create and exchange for the love of arts and crafts. It would be nice to venture back to that way of swapping.

Thanks so much for angeling the NFS Dotee Doll for me! Your doll is adorable, and I love the shape you used. It was very nice of you!
TerryF on Nov 9, 2009:

dulcimer: I have known for years that there are many wonderful people in this world, and a lot of them are right here on Swap-bot. Your kind and generous offer to join a group of special angels --- helping me to make and send a total of 210 handmade ornaments for those who were flaked on in the MEGA Christmas 2009 Ornament Swap --- is VERY much appreciated. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. If I can ever do anything to help you out in return, please let me know. (“;) Hugs, Terry
