About Me

After I get out my last open swap Angel ATC I will be taking a break from swap bot for an un-determined amount of time. I just don't have time to keep up with swaps right now. For members of my group: Crocheters of the US please direct all questions to the group officers who will be taking over while I am away.

If you are unhappy with a swap I send, or never received from me... please contact me BEFORE leaving a low rating so I can fix the problem. Thanks!

I am a 24 y/o female originally from Florida, now in North Carolina. I am a newlywed. I met my wonderful husband, Paul on Myspace (gotta love internet communication). I am a paralegal and currently trying to balance work, being a wife, swapping, and preparing for holiday craft shows! I love to read, write, all kinds of music, watching movies, working out and spending time with my animals (chihuahua-Penny, mixed puppy-Dollar and cat-Nickel).

FYI: In the future, because of the rising costs of shipping... I will not be participating in or hosting any international swaps unless they are E-swaps or VERY LIGHT items that don't cost much to ship.

Scrapbooking, photography, sewing, ceramic painting, quilting, wreaths, decorating; crocheting ( I just fell in love with making Amigurumi! my new obsession!), cross-stitch, paper crafts etc.

Likes

Taking an idea from my sis on this one... to help out my swapper partners Jungle stuff (giraffes, elephants, monkeys are primarily what my house is decorated in), palm trees; anything tiny or cutesy; EEYORE and pooh stuff; Purple and blue; Sweets and baking; Learning; dogs; sewing crafts; crocheting (I use the Red Heart yarn... and can always use more :); cross-stitch; jelly bellies; mint; peanut butter; lavender and flowery scents; musky flowery scents (BBW); cookies; ice cream; banana and strawberry; coffee (chocolate coffee... definately); starbucks; chocolate covered expresso beans; smoothies; POGO (Lottso); puppies; clothes shopping; rollercoasters; cotton candy; sad songs; scary movies; coloring books; markers; black, vanilla, rubius and pomegranate teas are my fave!; hole punches and funky scissors; fuzzy stuff; sparkley stuff; decorating; girly stuff (bath and body works.. whoo hoo); my iPod; giving and getting stuff! I absolutely LOVE holidays and decorating for them! I love surprising people with little halloween treat bags or a little christmas Stocking filled with goodies. It's so much fun! For halloween: cutesy halloween like dressed up kittens, cartoony spiders, etc. For Christmas: EVERYTHING!

Dislikes

Bugs; other creepy crawlies; licorice; grape juice; disorganization; tacky decor; lazy people. Yarn that's too fuzzy to really work with (to crochet), i'm not that big into varigated yarn and though I like scrapbooking... I kinda have scrapbooking embelishments and stickers coming out my ears for now. I do NOT like lemon or chai tea. For halloween: gory icky stuff.. eyeballs, severed limbs etc.

Cheap Stuff That I Will LOVE!

Candies: mint chocolates; jelly bellies (apple, peach, peppermint, cappuccino, orange cream, banana, tutti frutti, any really); preferably low fat hard/gummy candies made with real fruit juice but I LOVE circus peanuts and fruit slices.

craft stuff: lace, ribbon, fabric, cool shaped "themed" buttons, beads, silk flowers, embroidery floss, yarn, googly eyes, fabric "puffy" paints, pompoms, pipe cleaners, mini plaster ceramics (to paint), iron-ons, small embellishments such as patches etc., eyes with safety backings (for amigurumi creatures, you can find these in the "eyes" section at Jo Ann Fabrics, yarn, yarn yarn (i'm not really picky about my yarn... I tend to buy the cheap Red Heart brand... though i don't really like varigated and I'd prefer earthy solid colors I can use for amis rather than pinks, purples and blues as I have tons of those! :)

other stuff: different flavors of tea/coffee, smelly and/or sparkly pens and markers, magnetic note pads, magnets (that match my kitchen- jungle, green or fruit like strawberries that I can use for crafts as well); yummy (low-fat) recipes, MUSIC mix CDs, Books that match my prefs, magazine clippings (to use to decorate notebooks & journals), coloring books (ONLY Crayola Crayons though... no really detailed pictures) Mix CD Soundtracks I would love to get: Felicity, Dawsons Creek, Everwood, One Tree Hill, Medium, House.

For a DEFINATE Heart

Original Strawberry Shortcake, My Little Pony, Popples, Rainbow Brite stuff; Spangler Heart Marshmallows (not like normal marshmallows...these are like circus peanuts... i can't find them anymore at V-day time); Koala Cookies (they used to carry these in the US but lately i've had to order them from Japan); Disney themed Desk Accessories (tape dispenser, post it notes and holder, stapler, etc).
