Hello.

Life with my beautiful daughter is going well and I’m very much continually amazed by how great she is.

Life’s settling down now again and so might start a little light swapping once more.

I have some cute knitted monsters / Knitted Amigurumi for swapping on my flickr page. Have a look please! Will swap for Domo or profile related items. :))

Yay!

hugs

I love this site and the happiness and excitement it brings!

I try to send quality swap packages and hope for the same in return.

I like 1:1 swaps - have a look at the links above for an example of the type of stuff I have available for swapping. Can also make or find other things - so any ideas for 1:1 swaps please PM me.

I am a super punctual person, but like a lot of other people seem to say - remember what the postal service is like.

Any issues at all with me - please please message me and we can discuss things in a lovely friendly and nice manner. I am a very caring and conscientious person - and here to have some super fun!

I sometimes re-use packaging to help the environment. But only the outside packaging and I make sure I take extra time to wrap items up inside the packaging.

huge hugs

I am 37 years old and live in Yorkshire, UK - with my lovely husband, daughter and cat.

I love crafting, listening to music, collecting soft toys, visiting interesting places, and having fun!

Please don’t be ‘put off’ by my name – I am not ‘scary’ and you wont get a load of skeletons or the like from me (unless you want to – he he he).

Please don’t stereotype me - it's an internet name I have used for years and so can remember it.

As you can see I love bright colours, I’m a Buddhist, a committed vegetarian (have been for most of my life), love nature and animals, and really very average. I am a complete mix of contradictions but am a very lovely person – see all the hearts I have – so please don’t judge a person by there online name and the stereo types you associate with it.

I am also a new mummy to the most amazing little girl - Poppy Ladybird (her real name). I love being a mummy and she's just so great. She's growing and developing so fast and has made my already cool life even cooler.

I am a 'big' lady who is getting 'smaller'. At the moment I am about a UK 20 or 22 on top and a UK 16 or 18 on bottom. I do love clothes and wouldnt mind them as swaps. I need new clothes as loosing weight leaves me with a lack of clothes that fit. :))

I love crafting - making cards, scrapbooking, ATC's, papercrafts, knitting, crochet, glass painting, rag rugging, making soft toys, rock painting and more.

I like all sorts really, mostly 'alternative' - goth, ska, punk, metal, rock, 80's, and folk.

My favourite colours are shocking pink, purple, blood red, electric blue, and black. And I do like some shades of green and blue and orange.

I love lots of lovely and interesting things. I like bright colours and shiny and glittery things, whilst at the same time as liking odd and strange gothic things too.

To add a list of all my favourite things would just be too boring to write and read. Hopefully all the above stuff will give you and idea of me and here are a few other snippets on information as well.

A small example of the type of things I like to collect:

•DOMO! •Mary Engelbreit. •Ladybirds. •Penguins. •Things with stars on. •Teddy bears and soft toys •Cats. •Stickers (the cuter the better). •Sea shells. •Fairies - but one's with attitude. •Pretty stationery sets. •Kawaii. •Strange and wonderful ‘gothic’ stuff, like Living •Dead Dolls and similar. •Tim Burton – books mostly. •Art by Jasmine Becket-Griffith and similar art. •Miffy. •Tattoos and piercings. •Bags - funky, cool, cute and a bit childish ones. •Fountain pens and inks to go with them. •Pencil cases. •Balls of wool (new). •And loads loads more – will add more as I think of them.

Some other facts –

•I am a vegetarian. •I have long hair and love hair clips and bobbles/scrunches. •I really love bracelets - especially stretchy beaded bracelets. •I love to celebrate and love Halloween, Christmas and Easter – I decorate the house and have lots of fun. •I’m not really into sport – but I do love shopping. •I’m in a very rewarding but not very well paid job. •I am a mummy to a lovely little girl. •I only like silver coloured jewlery.

Some things I don't really like and wouldn't really like to receive -

•I really do not like gold coloured jewlery - even gold coloured fastenings on jewlery - got to be silver coloured thanks. •Food / candy / sweets. •Tea or coffee - i don't drink tea or coffee. •Books - got way too many that I don’t read as it is. •Comics - I like comic book characters but not the actual comics. •Things with cherubs or hearts on. •Items that are very pastel and bland. •Erasers. •Random bits of small paper in a swap. •Pencils - unless very specific to my tastes. •Felt-tip pens - unless Sacura. •Colouring pencils or crayons (got loads). •Items that smell of smoke or other horrid things. •Bath or skin products (and lip balm) – I have very sensitive skin.

Thank you for looking :))

My daughter (Poppy) is 2yrs old.

She loves: cars, dolls, Yo Gabba Gabba, Peppa Pig, The Wiggles, castles, pink, Hello Kitty; owl's; the moon; trains, stickers and general stuff a 2 yr old likes.

So you could send me things for her as part of a swap - but it does need to be safe for her age.

Oh yes I do!!!!

Send me anything Domo and I will burst will joy!

I would love to swap for anything Domo related!

Also known as ‘Domo-kun’, he is the mascot of Japan's NHK television station, appearing in several 30 second stop-motion sketches shown as station identification during shows. He is described as "a strange creature that hatched from an egg." Domo's favourite food is Japanese-style meat and potato stew, and he has a strong dislike for apples, due to an unexplained mystery in his DNA. Domo-kun is known to pass gas repeatedly when nervous or upset.
