Please message me if I have not rated and it's been a couple weeks since send date. I try to rate but sometimes I forget or there is a miscommunication with my PC.

I have a new Facebook profile, separate from the one I use for family. I wanted to use it for swapping, etc. Feel free add me especially if you play TREASURE ISLE. I am in desperate need of friends on that game.

Favorite Characters: Winnie-the-Pooh characters (especially classic Pooh... I love A.A. Milne), Little Twin Stars, The Muppet Show, Twiddlebugs, Ernie and Bert, Ziggy, Sleeping Beauty

Celtic items, mythology, fantasy, faeries, unicorns, gnomes, medieval, knights, ladies, castles.

Poodles, owls, mushrooms, forest friends, my son (17) loves penguins

beautiful/unique office supplies, kawaii erasers, unique paper clips, colored staples, cute or pretty pens

I LOVE wind-up/kinetic toys. I had a couple when I was a tween but they are no more :( Every time I see them in the store I want to buy some. But I restrain myself.

STICKERS - almost all kinds, except stars/ teacher/100smileys on one sheet/etc (I love vintage stickers so if they are yellowed that's fine because stickers from the 70s and early 80s are going to be that way. Of course later ones should not be yellow)

math puzzles, logic problems, cross sums/kakuro, jigsaw puzzles

Kawaii stationery especially deco tape, erasers, stickers, pens and letter sets. NO Hello Kitty. LOVE Little Twin Stars, cute animals and food with faces

Favorite Scents: jasmine, honeysuckle, gardenia, lilac, rose, pikake, violet, plumeria, vanilla, and coconut

I love pinks, violets and blues... cool colors

Favorite styles/patterns: paisley, cherries, polka dots (b/w, b/pink), vintage (cute animals/rainbows etc)

COLLECTIONS: Winnie the Pooh characters Little Twin Stars, Kawaii erasers, Stickers, vintage dishes, Paperchase items

I go oooh and ahh over just about anything from the late 70s and early 80s simply because it reminds me of my childhood. While I don't collect items I do like looking at them or pictures of them.

I am always looking for quick, easy or family-friendly dinner menus with recipes. I can't eat the same thing every week. Well I can but it's boring making it all the time. I'm thinking of starting a swap relating to this. I am trying to eat healthier. Any easy vegetarian MAIN DISH recipes with relatively few ingredients would be great. Not pasta and cheese ones as I have tons of those. Things made with beans and veggies. I look at tons of recipes and they sound good but the list of ingredients is SO LONG I don't even bother. I am a SAHM with 4 kids at home and I got so much to do I rarely want to have a long process of dinner with lots of chopping and what not.

I love handmade items items so no need to ask if you can send handmade :) I never trade or reswap handmade items. They are too precious even ones that don't turn out so great. There is too much heart and soul put in.

Please don't send folded stationery papers or any other folded papers (craft, etc) for that matter

I LOVE stickers but please NO teacher/reward stickers or the sheets from the kid sticker pads... the ones with multiple sheets that have tiny circle stickers.

Anything with alcohol in it

Coffee or anything coffee/mocha flavored.

banana, apple, lime and mint flavors

Makeup.. with the exception of lip balm/lip gloss

Jewelry.. I like it but I do not wear it. go figure

Lavender - yes I am one of the few people in the world that cannot stand the smell of lavender

Romance or horror/thriller/gory novels

Paperchase!!!

Blind box toys

Stickles (I have eucalyptus, waterfall, turquoise, pink and white)

Fantasy/Mythology/Celtic cross-stitch patterns/books/leaflets (used is fine) I especially love Teresa Wentzler, Mirabila and Lavender and Lace Designs

Cross-Stitch magazines (preowned and older are fine)

I like all sorts of postcards but I'm really interested in the store-bought local/area recipe ones right now if you have them on hand. Also state capitol building postcards again if you have them on hand. I'd like all 50... I thought that would be cool. I just got one from Mississippi. Other than that any type of postcard will do.

Refrigerator magnets... mostly because my kids keep losing mine... All types.. souvenir, deco, handmade, funny, vintage, whatever :)

Jean Greenhowe leaflets - the ones with little toys and sweets

I love reading, poetry, shopping, decorating my home, painting or refinishing furniture, sewing by hand, felt items, crocheting... mostly amigurumi, cross-stitch, matchboxes, and paper crafts.

Right now I'm not doing much. I'm still trying to organize our house even though we moved 1 1/2 years ago. At least my stuff is out of storage now. Hopefully I will have my craft room set up in September.
