Hi! My name is Lauren and I am 28 years old. I live in the south of England, where I have lived my whole life.
I've been a member of Swapbot for years now and yet I still don’t really know what to write in this section.
I suffer from a condition called Selective Mutism, which is a severe anxiety disorder that affects communication. I’d love to hear from anyone else who suffers from it, as it doesn’t seem as commonly known in adults. I also suffer from other physical and mental health issues, and crafting/swapping is pretty much like a therapy to me.
** For JJJ Let’s Make a Junk Journal **
I’m happy to receive any theme if it’s on my A-Z of likes. I especially love florals, under the sea, nautical, vintage, animals and circus.
Any size works for me too as I can work with all sizes
I rate as soon as I receive a swap, so if I haven’t rated yet, it’s hopefully just because mail can be a bit slow. The latter also applies to swaps I’ve sent.. if you haven’t received a swap from me, please message before rating
I understand life can get in the way, so if you’re going to send a swap late, just pop me a message and I won’t rate down because of it. However, if you send late and don’t bother letting me know, I’ll have to rate down
Where possible, I would prefer to receive envelopes that aren’t completely covered in sellotape/clear tape, as I like to use parts of the envelopes in other crafts, and recycle the rest
Please DO NOT send loose glitter or items with flaky glitter. They will end up being discarded. It’s on my dislikes, but I seem to be receiving more as more of it lately
Unless a swap involves sending one, I would rather not receive postcards of places. I don’t use them

Hi Lauren! I really appreciate you angeling the Washi Swap #4. That was so nice. I really like the samples. Such a great swap host. Happy Swapping! KB
You are for sure a creative, talented and generous Angel - thank you so much!
Hi Lauren, thank you for the lovely and joyful LSRU August wishes you sent. I will enjoy using them in my journals and making hand crafted bookmarks. Each wish was very thoughtful and my favorite was the cat photo. Every little creature has a secret message!
Thank you for angeling the Washi Sample #2 swap! I love the options you sent!
