I am a 36 year old hippie chic. ✿ I love ☮ peace signs ☮, vintage trolls, Christmas, peacocks, stickers, glitter, snail mail, taking pictures, sharpies, my iPad, unicorns, stickers, rainbows, Lisa Frank, Prince, nail polish and vintage / retro stuff. Did I mention stickers?

I have a 7 year old mini-me (B) who loves to get mail. She loves stickers, crafty stuff, magnets, animals, (pretty much stuff I like) and she collects key chains and Shopkins.

I mainly host and join sticker swaps. ➳ I LOVE stickers and I always share with B!

{PLANNER DEETS: I HAD an Erin Condren Vertical Life Planner. I gave it 6 months. Sadly, I have found that I am definitely an electronic calendar gal. And yes, that truly makes me sorta sad. Oh well, live and learn.}

I do have several smashbooks though. I keep little things I like, quotes, bits of artwork B draws for me, small magazine clippings, prayers, etc.

♥Vintage stickers

♥Full sheets / mods

♥Prism and holographic stickers

♥Laser stickers

♥Cool decal stickers (for my kayak!)

♥Vending machine stickers (old/vintage)

♥OK, really any stickers (no reward*, word, flakes, or holidays other than Christmas and Halloween, please)

*I like smiley face and star stickers though!

I don't care for kid/cartoon character stickers either (like dinosaurs, Dora the Explorer, etc.) ~ with the exception of Carebears, Trolls, etc. (anything that's a throwback to the 80s/90s!)

I am always open to private vintage sticker swaps.

My nickname is CK (really creative, I know)

I just cannot pick a favorite color. Is rainbow a color? What about glitter? Holographic?

Most of my closet is fashion jewelry, not clothes.

I do not like my bare feet touching the floor.

I have 3 tattoos, including a peace sign ☮, and an amazing unicorn! (It's on my instagram page @thegrantgirl

I sell and collect [hoard] vintage stickers.

I am a bit of a germ-a-phobe, and a little OCD.

I hate putt-putt (mini golf).

I love the HBO show, GIRLS.

I am not easily offended.

I am a full-throttle Scorpio ♏

I am a Girl Scout Daisy leader.

I love Johnny Depp and all of his sexy weirdness.

I would not "rate down" for any of this stuff. I just don't prefer it.

Both ends of the spectrum and everything in between!

I love magazines too. I subscribe to Martha Stewart Living, House Beautiful, Country Living, National Geographic, Our State, Woman's Day, Natural Health, Bust, etc.

I tried the whole reading-magazines-on-my-ipad-and-nook-color and it is just not the same, because I like to tear out/clip things I like and keep them in a notebook!

I don't watch a whole lot of TV, but I do really like: The Goldbergs, Full House/Fuller House, The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, OITNB, Girls, The Ranch, and other random stuff on Netflix/Amazon Prime.
