About Me

My husband and I have moved into our new house. I've updated my address, so that it's current. I should still receive anything sent to my old address because it's my parents' house, and they'll let me know if I get any mail there.

I am a 24-year-old stay-at-home mom to an 11-month-old baby girl. My husband just got out of the Navy after serving for 6 years. I make and sell jewelry and accessories at craft fairs and on Etsy. I love retro, vintage, cute, weird, and unusual things.

My daughter is extremely curious and is in everything, including the trash can. She loves animals and kids and gets extremely frustrated when they ignore her. She likes dancing, singing, and "reading."

My husband is very dorky and enjoys math, tools, cars, reading, music, science, the doomsday calendar, chocolate, and being out of the navy.

Favorite Crafts

I enjoy jewelry making, crocheting, sewing, felting, screenprinting, and scrapbooking. I love trying new crafts, and will try anything once. I'm having fun with matchboxes. I love little tiny cute things. I also love handmade and/or hand dyed yarn.

Things I Like

I love bright and pale colors(esp. lime, green, pink, turquoise/teal, red). I also like black and chocolate brown, but not together. I like polka dots, owls, hedgehogs, dinosaurs, kittens, birds, zombies, monsters, stuffed creatures, gnomes, mushrooms, forest creatures, acorns, stars, hearts, kawaii(mostly food with faces and animals), octopus, cupcakes and other baked goods, strawberries, tomatoes, apples, pears, and vintage items from the 1920s-1980s. I also like fruit flavored candies, milk chocolate, and tea. I like lucite, acrylic, glass, and wood beads and buttons. If sending scented items I like fruit scents and bakery type scents.

Please Don't Send

I'm allergic to raspberries, so please don't send me flavored or scented raspberry items. I'm not particularly fond of anything orange colored, dark chocolate, sour candies, gold or brass, red roses, frogs, headbands, floral and musky scents, and lip products besides lip balm.

Favorite Movies

Ghost World, Amelie, Harold and Maude, The Big Lebowski, Donnie Darko, and Garden State. I also love zombies, bollywood, and anything Steve Buscemi.

Favorite Music

I'll listen to almost anything if I'm in the mood. I especially love Tilly and the Wall, Jason Anderson, Consafos, The Good Life, Rilo Kiley, Belle and Sebastian, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Cursive, The Octopus Project, Cat Power, Johnny Cash, Le Tigre, Mates of State, Radiohead, Talking Heads, The Breeders, and The Pixies.

Favorite Books

art and craft books. I like learning new skills, but I'm terrible at following patterns.

Wishlist

-things with polka dots in colors I like

-cute food with faces

-pincushion shaped like something I like

-scrapbooking supplies(particularly stuff for a baby girl or just regular basic supplies. I would love stickers, paper, stamps, stamp pads, embossing powder, or any interesting embellishments.)

-other craft supplies like interesting or vintage beads, charms, buttons, yarn, fabric, or other embellishments.

-anything handmade(I like seeing other people's creative side)

-japanese candy or other unusual candies or snacks(I love gummies, fruit candies, and milk chocolate. I like pocky, pretz, lindt, haribo, and meiji.)

-decorative things having to do with the letter "c"(my daughter's name is corinne. I'm looking for cute artwork that says things like "c is for cupcake" or "c is for cat")

-cute purses, pouches, or wallets

-cute things for a one-year-old girl(no princess or ballerina. My daughter isn't one yet, but she has enough under one-year-old stuff.)

-handmade or unusual stuffed items or little toys

-bento box or bento box accessories(would love a rice mold, food picks, or sauce bottles)

-anything cram cream

-cute erasers(the kind that look like fruit or cakes)

-things to help decorate my new home

Comment: Thanks for the pretty card. It had opened up in the mail and was almost like a greeting card. I like the textured paper.
Response: That's weird that it opened. Maybe its because I used a different kind of glue than I normally do. I love using that textured paper.
