About Me

edited and updated on the 24th November 2008.

If for some reason you do not receive your package from me whether its a swap or a tag, (although it hasn't happened yet) PLEASE let me know and i will rectify it. I always send before the due date, and always rate the day i receive. I always send something i would love to receive my self, and if i give extras its because i have something i think my partner would love or want, not for a heart. Don't feel you need to add extras for a heart, as its the swap i rate on, not what comes with it.

Thankyou for taking the time to read my profile and for sending to me, i do appreciate it!

Im a mum of a 13 year old son and a 2 year old daughter, I work part time in a craft store, and love being creative.

favorite colours

my favorite colours are teal, red, pink and purple, these colours make me feel all warm and fuzzy!!! i love all the colours of a peacock and i also like lime green !!! its such a fun colour.

i love the combo's lime green and orange,teal/aqua and red, brown and red, purple and red... (gee i like things with red dont I!!)lol

Favorite Crafts

I am pretty much into anything and everything, and mixing them all together, i love to knit, felt, quilt, making toys from socks and altering anything i can get my hands on, I have dabbled in mosaic, jewellery making, pretty much everything really! i have yet to try my hand at painting art (it scares me a little its such a permanent hobby)! i am now hooked on dotee dolls too!!!

Comment: Niss - thank you for your patience on your rating as I was out of town much longer than anticipated. I love the dolls - great fabric choices and their beaded/button hair is such a sweet touch. And I really appreciate the cute and practical wrapping - I will put the fabric and yarn to good use. What a great package to come home to! For some reason I can't use the heart option from my BlackBerry, but will go back and adjust that this weekend. Thanks again!
