I'm 25 and I live in Cleveland, Ohio. I recently moved into a new apartment with a second bedroom that I use exclusively for crafting. I love to sew and draw and paint. I want to learn how to knit! I have two cats and a dog and a degu. I went to school for fine art and I work as a nanny. I try to do little craft projects with the kids whenever I can get them interested! Some of my favorite things are sewing, horseback riding, reading, hiking, camping and geocaching. If you haven't heard of it, you should check it out. It's pretty much the best thing ever :) My favorite color is red. My favorite food is pizza (because you can pretty much do anything with it and make it a new food) and I love making friends.
Also, I ALWAYS send out my swaps on time. If you have a problem with anything, pleae email or message me before leaving a negative rating. I will anything I can to help you!!
I like all sorts of music. I know that sounds cliche because everyone says that, but I do. I worked in a music store for a few years and developed an appreciation for lots of different things. I guess I really like indie rock. I also love bluegrass and old school rap and jazz.
I read sooooo many books. They are probably my favorite thing and I collect them. Paperbackswap.com is a wonderful thing. I decided to do the 50 book challenge recently and completed it in seven months. I'll read just about anything. I especially like biographies and books about philosophy and religion. I love David Sedaris, Laurie Notaro and other writers of that sort. I also love reading the local newspaper. I like to keep up with what is going on around me.
I like old movies. Some of them aren't even very good but I like the innocence and simplicity of old movie plots. I think my favorite movie is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. I also loooove muppet movies!
I don't watch a lot of tv because I don't get any channels on my tv. I do watch shows online. My favorites are The Golden Girls, The Office, Lost, America's Next Top Model. I don't care for the drama of the last one so much but I love looking at the clothes! And I love photography so that's always an interesting aspect, too.
I like making things out of felt--food, toys, doll clothes, cat toys, etc. I want to start making my own clothes. I also like creating stuffed monsters. The more off-beat, the better! I like collecting fat quarters and staring at them, wondering what I could possibly do with them. I also like vintage fabrics and notions. I also collect buttons. You never know when you might need a quirky button!! I would like to start learning how to sew my own clothes. I would love to be able to wear custom things, knowing that I made it and it fits me perfectly! I think my favorite thing to make is children's toys. They're fun to do because there are really no limits. I like inspiring imagination. I love Aranzi Aranzo books. I think they are just cute and clever. They are so simple yet still very appealing.
baking, sewing, playing with my cats, painting, candy, hiking, collecting weird things I really have no use for, reading, Achewood
Candy! I use a lot of felt and fat quarters when I craft. Funny colored/shaped/sized buttons. Sewing supplies. Doll eyes (I use a lot of these). Candles. Quirky and/or eccentric flea market finds. I love the colors red and blue. I love tea. Cute hair clips and barrettes. Gaudy jewelry. My kitchen is decorated in all red and white. I love tea (but no caffeine, please). I wear a size small/medium. Things for my dog or cats.
Please do not send: Religious items, coffee, caffeinated teas, stickers...there isn't really a lot I don't like. I just tried to name some things I would never use or that I can't ingest :)

Congratulations for being the first person to flake in one of my swaps!!
HEY! Just wanted to say thanks for flaking on your partner in my swap. Hope you enjoyed it. Oh and don't worry I will angel it since your new flaking hobby is keeping you busy. Don't enjoy your summer!
Mandy I e-mailed you at your gmail account to ask if you are OK. I got no response and I see you have not logged in since the 14th. I am going to have your partner send her Aranzi Aronzo stuffie to the person who was supposed to send to you. At this point you have six 1s with no explanation. :(
I just wanted to let you know that, since you seem to have gone MIA and have a lot of swaps to catch up, your sending partner for the August Birthday swap will send instead to the person that was supposed to receive for you. If you will ever decide to come back to Swap bot contact me.
Check out my 2 newest swaps I'm hosting, Marilyn Monroe Swap (http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/38743) and We Love Elvis!!! (http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/38742). Hope you'll join us!
