About Me

hey! i have attention deficit crafting disorder! i do CROCHET, film photography, decoupage, sewing, jewelry, ...etc.....have a craft room filled to the max ( so i can spare some crafty love!) and love vintage stuff and my 1980 honda moped... wanna swap?

random kinds of factness

i have a facebook page, a blog i never update and a ravelry account! I have severe Hypothyroidism also known as thyroid dysgenesis (acute degradation of the thyroid), i wear vintage glasses, i have a special place in my heart and art studio for 50's-70's plastic/metal kitchen containers and the colours avocado green, rust orange and deep turquoise. I love 70's craft magazines for ideas, sewing patterns for ANYTHING, specialty threads for sewing machines, vintage stamps,German,Italian or Japanese stickers/stationary!

Favorite Crafts

sewing, vintage fabric, glass/tile decoupage, YARN, embroidery floss, jewelry findings (like clasps, earring hooks,jump rings) jewelry, funky, crochet, hair accessories, headbands, appliques, BUTTONS! acrylic painting, etc.... really looking for old 70's plastic flower looms, yo yo makers, sculpey things, letter stamps ( i don't really ink stamp often... i stamp my sculpey!) I adore funky fabric pieces and metallic paints (puffy paints too! i need some!)

Favorite Television

sci-fi, doctor who, quantum leap, start trek, better off ted six feet under, sliders, house, american dad, alien nation, the IT crowd, red dwarf, monty python, catherine tate show... if its on the BBC/scifi or home/garden, i will watch it!

Favorite Books

LISA CAREY! seriously, i love her writing, zombies, dinosaurs, cook books, (craft magazines, crochet magazines, patterns...vintage too!), ready made & CRAFT & MAKE & Bust magazines.

Favorite Movies

walk hard, classic movies, star trek movies except #1 and voyage home... foriegn & indie creepy films like perfume and eternal sunshine of the spotless mind Labyrinth, Monty python movies and anything by the PYTHON boys, the beatles movies

things i frikkin love!

sci-fi, vintage kitchen ephemera really cool vintage fabric, Dinosaurs, cupcakes, robots, anatomical diagram illustrations, dia de los muertos skulls, tattoos, crochet stuff, YARN, VINTAGE PILLOW CASES, cute earrings with hook posts or complete hoops, stickers, adorkable hair accessories since i am growing my hair out, notebook journals to draw in and pens, calligraphy nibs and ink/cartridges, fimo clay, things to make jewelry and hair accessories, crochet things like needles and STITCH MARKERS and cool yarn, craft books...uhm, david bowie....i love cute bird drawings, owls, monsters and stationary that is almost too cool to write on! any Q's ask me! SEWING NOTIONS!

things i despise...

cathy cartoons tweety bird and betty boop. really. big polka dots, earrings with post backs (since i have gauges and can only wear long hanging ones), rap, most country, fanny packs, seeds ( if i get them, i give them to friends & family. i have a black thumb) i really am not too picky!

a note about this sender...

I have noticed people can be twidgy on here. I work a 40 hr a week job and I understand life gets in the way. I understand paying bills before post office trips. If it is going to be late, just email me. I like a heads up and to know other people can be like me! when it comes to swaps, I rarely give 3&1's. some people can't afford a huge amount of things. If i get things i don't need or want, i put them aside and put it back out there! If you truly put effort, you get a heart. Period. I like getting presents in the mail! (no bills!) ^-^ krys
