  • clouds, especially rain clouds
  • animals, especially baby orangutans

  • kawaii (sanrio and other japanese characters. to me mickey mouse and gang, looney tunes characters like tweety, cartoon network characters like powderpuff girls, snoopy and diddl are NOT kawaii)
  • japanese (esp sakura aka cherry blossoms

  • general horror, negative stuff etc
  • tacky stuff
  • things with my name on it
  • lipstick & make-up
  • please no more alphabet, smiley, flowers and hearts stickers unless they have some sort of interesting design or smell - thanks :)

  • Product (RED) products
  • otter greeting cards
  • cute lapel pin/brooch
  • cute hair pins
  • rubber stamp of a tree
  • funky/childrens/japanese fabric or bandanas for furoshiki (japanese style wrapping using fabric)
  • Polaroid 600 film
  • stapleless stapler
  • natural beeswax candles
  • blank cards and envies for card making
  • anything eco, environmentally friendly or fairtrade (non food related)
  • australian gift vouchers/cards for big w, target, kmart, borders, officeworks (to buy more kids books & stuff!)

Thank-you so much for the RAK in angelling me. It was totally unexpected. The package was wonderful. Thank-you again.

Hello Emily, I see that we have quite a few things in common with each other..especially the love for travel, photography, volunteering and charity work, and scrapbooking and crafting. I am interested in some of your items that you have for trade...wooden rubber stamp, forever friends teddy bag, mother/baby soft toy...I am also wondering a little more about your Las Vegas/Grand Canyon Flight Certificate.

Also, do you have any beautiful photos of your time in Africa, and also of your native country? I would love to see them, or have one in print...Thanks, hope to speak with you soon, Alicia USA

Marymint on Jan 8, 2009:

Hey, I sent your stickers this afternoon - I hope you love them!
