09/24/2020-Regarding postage due swaps. Lately, I have received returned mail with postage due. I was also informed recently that an envelope of mine required $3.40 postage due to my partner. I felt horrible about this and reimbursed my partner ASAP. I use a home digital scale and the scale at the post office. I also use the template from the post office for size and thickness. If you get a swap from me, with postage due, please refuse it. I will do what is necessary to make it right. Thank you, and I apologize should this actually happen to you.

#BLACKLIVESMATTER

Fur baby & plant mom, childless by choice, messy bun (getting sh*t done), chemist, dog lover, science geek, Curandera, lunar/green witch, flirty, introvert, user of profanities, gun owner, recycler, spunky, migraine sufferer, paper book reader, partnered up with a tattooed total bad ass, a self-proclaimed paper addict, and am an advocate of the federal legalization of cannabis.

I am here to have fun. I'm not easily offended. I actually get a kick out of the nude, rude, crude, perverted, vulgar, and dark humored. I enjoy the different, bizarre, weird, and totally inappropriate. However, I will not tolerate racism, homophobic language, religious pressure, bigotry, violence, or the rhetoric currently spewing from the White House or the idiot some call a president.

I obviously dislike the mistreatment towards animals, children, the disabled, and the elderly. I can't stand bullying, the greedy, irresponsible, negative spirits, the ungrateful, liars, and soul suckers. You will not find me on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, or whatever else is out there.

I love your creativity!!

My last name is COFFIN, so if you have anything coffin related that you'd like to share, please feel free to do so! Thank you.

CRAFTS

I love to get lost in my creativity. I like to try all forms of art. I like mixed media, handmade bookmarks & postcards, vintage ephemera, weathered book pages, embellishments, paper crafts, vintage black and white photos & postcards, good quality handmade things, paper & postcards in foreign languages, stitched paper crafts, card making supplies, ATCs, and junk journals. I love to upcycle and recreate. I reuse packaging when I can and I save creative envelopes to use in my junk journal.

I am interested in altered tins, flip books, zines but have not dabbled in them yet.

DISLIKES

I'm not fond of social media, monkeys/apes (they totally creep me out), chocolate, Disney, coffee, clowns, cute/child stickers, smell of cigarette smoke, rodents, and snakes. Please do not send me anything religious or political unless swap specific.

I pledge to rate. Not rating is almost as bad as flaking, in my opinion. If you haven't received a rating from me, chances are, I haven't received it. Also, I check my ratings to track swap receipts. If you haven't rated me, I will contact you to ensure receipt of my swap.

This is mostly for my own reference:
