About Me

I am just me... college, and working full time as well, living life with jasper.

I love vintage (30's 40's 50's) and hippie inspired stuff. anything patchwork or tie-dyed, or inspired by nature. I love good fabric and good chocolate. I really like stuff with cherries on it. I really love 50's style kitchen stuff. I like things that inspire me or perhaps remind me of days gone by.

my lucky number is 47.

I love hedgehogs, turtles, and pink elephants. i love little boxes made of anything. I love atc's and have a pretty big collection already, are you in my collection yet???

I really love volkswagons! I have a pretty big collection of vw stuff. I just finally bought a little vw safari, you all know it as a thing! anything vw inspired i will keep forever!

I like girly stuff, but don't appear to be a girly type of a girl. I love orange, but not to eat. i hate the color green but seem to buy it alot lately. I love wierd stuff! I love converse shoes only the canvas ones... I really likevibrant colors like bright orange, pink, turquoise, black, red, and blue. I dont like yellow at all. i like brown too.

I really like girly stuff in my house but not for me to wear...

I love lip gloss! I really love to go find great stuff that no one else has at lush and sephora. jen's got me wearing makeup these days... those of you who actually know me know that its wierd. my hair shoulder length... I cant do much besides tie it back, ... so if ever you are inspired to send something like barrettes taht would be sweet... I love the wierd stuff you'd buy for your 10 year old... but I'd like the grown up versions too.

I love wierd things to use for embellishments on fabric or paper or metal or anything. I just recently started making altered things, like boxes. I really love j-b weld... and epoxy. I just found my ex-boyfriend's toolbox in the back of the shed and theres a sottering iron in there i think it might have to go into my craft supplies :)

I collect: keys that have no home, keychains, vw's, turtles, piggy banks (not often pigs though), homemade pins and buttons. I really like those 60's pictures of the people with the really huge round eyes... they look strange. and I love anything with stars on it...

Favorite Music

I love music, but its not really my thing.... I don't sing or dance or anything like that at all...en hum... unless i'm drunk and thats not very often. I love the grateful dead, widespread panic, the white stripes, panic at the disco, nofx, johnny cash, bob dylan, kurt cobain (and nirvana), the beattles, nofx, any and all SKA, almost all reggae and some random country like allison kraus (but only her older stuff). norah jones. dar williams. i love classic rock and the stuff i grew up on,and some newer "catchy" stuff. I love goin to shows and festivals and watching live shows way more than listening to the radio. I still own vinyl. and cassettes. wierd. I have no way to play them?!

My boyfriend is a dj so i am lately listening to stuff that i have no idea what is!!! and am always open to something new.

Favorite Movies

:) I think I forgot about watching movies when I had jasper.... zathura....jumanji....and a bunch of kid movies...

i love adam sandler and drew barrymore... and robin williams... so i love all the movies you can think of with any of them in them....

Favorite Television

i still hate the tv, and dont have cable...if i did i would watch the discovery channel, national geographic, bravo,ifc, and ??? and every now and then cartoons. why dont i pay for cable?

Favorite Crafts

I love to sew sew sew and design clothes. I love rubber stamps and embossing and creating new ways to use mixed medias. scrapbooking and the like. I love making atc's! Lately I have been working on sewing projects, atc's, and altered books, journals,boxes, and stuff. also i like to create my own postcards to send to ya... saving needlework and knit/crochet for the winter.... summer is here! now i must go sew!

I really love postcards from everywhere too!

I am from.....

I am from washington state, but recently moved to New Mexico.... Some days it feels like a whole 'nother world!

Looking forward to moving to sante fe soon.... by june i hope!

What I Do In My Spare Time....

generally I spend any extra time that I can find with my boys jasper and dusty.... but lately there isnt much left over time with working and going to college full time. For now the spare time has been hanging with them and sewing summer clothes......

Comment: the quotecard #12 was great! it really made me think. my fear of being wrong has totally paralyzed me in the past. i also loved the OTHER quote from george lois. thanks so much for two! really like the santa fe bell tower picture postcard! the third arrived today and, again, i love it! thanks
Response: there should be one more! I sent three to three, since one postcard makes a lonely mailbox!
