Hi! I just LOVE creating heartfelt art to share with others to brighten their day. I also love checking my mailbox for happy mail and seeing what beautiful things my swapping friends have created. π¨ π
Iβm open-minded and accepting; and I love handmade art! Always feel free to try a new technique or try something new on a swap for me. I love to see what you come up with and how you made it happen. Iβd love to hear a little about what you made/sentβ¦ I really like hearing from you. π
I will always angel any swap I host.
I am open to private art swaps! Send me a message if youβre interested.
I'm mom to 2 boys, a wife, a gardener and an artist. We have a dog and a cat. I love history and fairy tales. I enjoy genealogy. I love rocks and crystals. Iβm into native plants, and herbalism. I love nature. A weekend in the woods is a perfect weekend to me!
πΌ I maintain a "little art gallery" in our front yard. It is always open for sharing and swapping art locally. If you'd like to send something for the gallery, I'd love to select something to send back to you! Follow @littleArtgalleryolivette on facebook for updates.
I just love creating things... from sewing to papercrafting to painting to leather and woodwork to to embroidery and everything in between (including polymer clay)! Iβll try any craft at least once. I just LOVE making things!
Most recently, Iβve learned how to bind a leather book, and Iβve been sewing hexagons together (English Paper Piecing) to make small toys and a quilt top. Iβm also in the middle of sewing my 1st (non-historically accurate) historical garment... a dirndl dress, along with a blouse and apron. Iβve also been cranking out lots of ATCs lately!
I love sending and receiving happy mail! (Who doesnβt?!)
Some things Iβd be thrilled to receive:
anything handmade (even if the swap requires a "bought" card, I always prefer handmade and will not rate down)
colorful, decorated envies and packaging
collaborative art (decos, postcards, ATCs, etc); I really enjoy seeing what others do, and adding my own touch. Iβm always happy to send them along. Homers are okay with me (because then I get to see the finished product before sending it home)!
zines
"fancy" tissue paper samples
ATCs
gel prints or mono prints
tiny artwork
a secret, a hope or a dream (I'll keep it between us!)
your art
interesting items from where you live
tea (especially caffeine-free or herbal)
a letter from you
a story or essay or poem
favorite family recipe
soy-free, dairy-free vegetarian recipe
handmade or interesting paper samples
your best parenting or marriage tip
vintage stamps or stamps from other countries (Iβm in the USA)
I am grateful to receive any art that you wish to send me! I especially love hand-drawn and -painted art.

β’ the sea, seashells
