About Me

I am a CRAFT ADDICT age 31. I love to share my stuff around the word.

Colors I Love:

* periwinkle,
* lilac,
* violets,
* roses
* blues

I also like:

* pastels
* bright colors
* Red and oranges are nice to.

Colors I DO NOT care for:

* green
* yellow
* and brown colors

Things I like:

* I like tea or coffee.
* I'm a sock addict... so Sock Yarn is always welcome.

Since I knit and crochet, helpful items related to that craft (needed and appreciated) would be:

* Buttons, decorative ones mostly.
* Heart shaped things- buttons, boxes, decorations - I adore them.

I love to use in my crafts:

* beads especially small ones but with holes big enough that I can thread my yarn through.
* Funny stickers and smiling faces
* Candles
* incense
* herbs
* oils 

* Also, I love nature and gardening, I have a lot of flowers.
* Don't like to use make-up, but love scented soaps and other bathroom items - I just love to try new fragrances when I find them.

I really like Fantasy Books:

* Dungeons and Dragons: games and books
* I love to read Salvatore.

PLEASE NO

* candies or
* chocolate

Favorite Music

Rock mostly, Nickelback being my favorite lately, Aerosmith, Brian Adams,...

Favorite Crafts

all one can imagine, but mostly with tread and yarn: crochet, knit, macramee, ... I like to use strange materials and make decorative things. I use beads in crochet and like to make small items like washcloths and hot pads and small purses.

Comment: Elly, I am absolutely **thrilled** that you crocheted me such a beautiful, beautiful purse! And a little matching pouch! You cannot imagine how excited I was when I opened it all up. Thank you very much! (For the teas and dolphin magnet, as well.) A very thoughtful package with a nice long note too. Very nice! Hugs, Terry
Response: Thank you dear Terry, I am really glad you liked it all. I crocheted you that bag the way I would do it for myself (in fact I am making me one) and because of that I am even more happy.

Comment: Thank you so much! I love the colors, they are perfect for autumn!
Response: Sorry michelle, the problem is that mail from Croatia takes 2 or 3 weeks to arrive to US and there is nothing more I can do to speed up things, my apology.

Comment: elly-b, thank you for angeling me and sending such a lovely package. The cell phone holder (is it crocheted or knit, I cannot tell?!) is the perfect colour and just the right size for my phone. I also now have my first magnet from Croatia! The postcard and Kawaii memo pad are also cute. Many thx! Terry

Response: Yes unfortunately it takes two or three weeks to arrive there, and I sent over a month ago so I am concerned now about what happened. If something doesn't arrive soon please let me know and I will send again something else. Hope you take in account when rating me again.
