I love anything vintage. I collect sweet little birds and their little nesty things. My favorite color is robin's egg blue. A whole palette of beautiful hues of blue makes me quite happy. I find it so serene. I also like blue with brown and pink with brown as far as colors go. I have an affinity for textiles and ephemera. I collect postcards (love vintage especially, or retro). I love to cook and am forever trying out new recipes. I love vintage cookbooks. I wish I had more time to travel. I dream of living in Vermont and wish I had a green mountain view. I like to write and have fun with language. I am a big fan of puns. Laughter is my greatest pleasure in life. I am a packrat who hopes to become a minimalist one day. Other things I like: zinnias & hydrangeas, vintage seed packets, anthropomorphic creatures, anything with great sculptural lines, found objects, handmade items, vintage sewing patterns, stickers and stationary, collages, paper crafts, repurposing items, thrift shopping etc. You can check out my blog to learn more about me, just use the link above to get there...
p.s. if you are participating in a kids' swap and want to address a package or postcard directly to my kids they are: Amelia & Cooper.
p.p.s my beloved 63 year old Mom was recently diagnosed with lung cancer. she has never smoked. it was a shock. i am asking for raok postcards to lift her spirits (or any type of snail mail greeting you may like to send her way). Just message me for her address if you are interested in brightening her day. thank you!
I am playing catch up to those missing swaps. I am sorry for this and am getting things out as soon as possible. Thank you.
60s 70s & 80s music mostly, but not stuck in a time warp...I do like "things moderne"! My favorite bands are The Smiths, The Pixies, Beastie Boys, The Ramones, Beck, The Police & Led Zeppelin. I really love Jazz through & through. I don't think I've ever met a jazz song I didn't like.
Runs the gamut from Woody Allen films to Napoleon Dynamite. Sixteen Candles is possibly my favorite movie, still. And I am 37 years old. Go figure.
The Office, Project Runway, PBS Cooking shows, Antiques Roadshow, The Chapelle Show...I really don't watch that much tv, so these are what I watch when I do.
I'll try anything once...so my favorites are constantly changing. I guess I like recycling, sewing, paper crafts, collage and anything with felt best.

Hi, do you happen to like/make ATCs? The reason I'm asking is I saw your fruit postcard swap and wish there was a fruit ATC swap! I don't normally make postcards, but may not be able to resist joining since I love fruit as a theme! :D
Your World Poetry Day postcard arrived today--I love the texture of the fibers in the photo & the clear envelope ensured that it reached me in great shape. And "heavenly grass" is a wonderful phrase.... Many thanks!
You have just one more week to sign up for the Shutterbugs first swap. Won't you come join us?
