Hi there! My name is Felicia. I think cute things, making stuff and giving gifts are fun...

I am now a SAHM, I used to work for a nonprofit office. It was an eye opening experience; it was a fundraising office so it was more like a sales office. Just not my cup of tea.

I have a wide variety of likes and interests, I'm very bohemian, but I mainly like to swap kawaii items, matchboxes, and books.

I have two super cute, fun, adorable little girls. Also two kitties, Mona and Ginger. My hubs is the only boy in the house. Poor thing, he works so hard for us as a self-employed advertising/designer whiz and has to come home to sticker flakes, Powerpuff Girls, etc. etc.

Knitting, sewing (beginner) and scrapbooking, which is my favorite.

I like to learn new crafts, but I kind of get disappointed if I have a project that doesn't turn out well. I know that some things just take time and practice, but I am sometimes very impatient and I hate to waste things.

I really love to read fiction books! I love used books! I love craft books! I love children's books! I just love books!!!

I heart:

• anything with deer, anything with elephants
• anything fairytale!
• anything with kewpie dolls
• anything with little kawaii girls
• tokidoki

• of Sanrio items, I like Deery Lou, Kuromi, Tenorikuma, Sweet Coron, and Hello Kitty (and this is the only character I'll say "no knockoffs" about, only because there are so many bad ones, like Hello Kitty is not supposed to have a mouth or eyelashes!)
• of the big kawaii companies, I prefer Q-lia and Crux, but I also like unbranded stationery from Asia, especially if they have the themes listed above or are like the little animations on my profile n_n

I am always looking for loose lettersets, deco tapes, and cute pens. I also love things that smell nice and cute handmade jewelry.

misc likes:

• favorite colors: blue and green
• favorite indulgences: craft magazines and recycled paper products
• favorite accessories: bracelets (all kinds, cuff, bangles, charm, bead)
• favorite animals: deer and elephants
• favorite fruit flavors: banana, mango, pineapple

I also love coffee, caramel, and vanilla creme, so anything in those flavors or scents would be super sweet. I don't have any allergies, but I am really not a big fan of chocolate and prefer not to receive meltables because I live in a desert.

*What the lil ones like: Yo Gabba Gabba! Powerpuff Girls and Hello Kitty ^_^
