About Me

Swapbot member since March 2006.

ATTENTION SWAP PARTNERS: Please do not write swap or swapbot or the name of the swap or anything at all web-related, on the outside of your envelope or parcel to me.

I would appreciate this very much - thank you for understanding and being discreet.

If your swap to me is going to be late, just message me and let me know. Communication is a wonderful thing.

I'm a foodie. This means I like cooking & baking, alot and all things related to cooking & baking and the kitchen. Sending me anything to use in the kitchen is always welcome. Dishtowel, packet of spices, napkins, cute utensils. I really like crocheted dishcloths, interesting cookie cutters and patterned cupcake liners, chopsticks, sushi stuff, and sprinkles. I adore vintage and retro kitchen decor. Love Bento.

I spend alot of time papercrafting with scrapbooking and cardmaking, I can never have enough buttons, brads, ribbon, embellishments, stickers, ephemera, papers. I own upwards of 500 rubberstamps - send me something irreverent, cool, or downright weird.

I would love to receive your handmade notecards.

I make hand-stitched felt ornaments. If you happen to have extra felt sheets, craft thread & embroidery floss laying around, please do send it my way.

I love bath & beauty items such as shower gels, bath bombs, soaps, nail polish, hair clips & elastics, scrunchies, lipgloss/balms, hand & body lotion. I prefer 'food' scents please: brown sugar, coconut, mango, pear, any citrus, all berries, vanilla, cucumber, melons, coffee, chocolate, anything fruity.

Please no: florals, perfumes, musks as they give me the megrims.

I have no allergies worth mentioning where swapping is concerned.

Little toys, novelty candy, taffy & caramels, Jelly Belly, chocolate, coffee - flavoured & whole beans, all kinds of tea, interesting doodads, things out of vending machines, bouncy balls, fridge magnets, shrines, scented candles (again food scents please), I love all of these things.

I also like weird, funky, vintage, retro kitschy stuff, things with monkeys on them, hand-crafted monkeys, cheeky tee-shirts, comics - anything Marvel, DC only Wonder Woman, robots and ninjas. I like Star Trek alot.

I like old cameras dating from the 1970's and prior, if you find a cheap one in your local thrift shop, working or not, send it my way.

My favourite colour is red, for red is the best colour. I welcome any packages containing only red things.

Other colors I'm very fond of: sage green, robin's egg blue, turquoise, raspberry, chocolate brown, rich violet.

Usually interested in themed, larger-scale, crafty one-on-one private swaps. Message me with your idea :)

I'm not picky nor easily offended. Send me something profane.

Comment: Thank you so much for the wonderful matchbox package that arrived today. The matchbox is lovely and is filled with really fun found objects. I especially adore the little gray doggie. The little record player is fabulous and the soap--it smells so amazing I have to remind myself not to eat it!
