About Me

Hi there swappers, here is a little about me...I am an art teacher in a rural victorian secondary school, I am also a practising artist, I work mostly with vintage wrapping paper collage and drawings. I love listening to records, I have a soft spot for 8o's music! I also love anything that is retro and colourful, particulary from the 70's.My entire house is furnished with retro vintage clutter! I also love clothes, retro tees and accesories.

Favorite stuff.

I love owls, I have them all around the house. And Bambi is my very favorite character, I collect vintage bambi's and love tees with Bambi on them.

I love costume/kitch plastic jewelery and beads. I also wear lots of plastic vintage brooches and big plastic earings. Kitch is great!

I collect...

I collect 70's tea towels with flower power designs and cute animal characters on them.

Vintage/ hand made hand bags.

1970's cannisters

Big sunglasses.

Owls and Bambi

My favorite colours.

My favorite colours are purlpe, red and green, but I love anything brightly coloured and patterned. Especially polka dots and florals.

Favorite Crafts

I like to make jewerly, but I always give it as gifts. I paint and also work in mixed media. I try to sew, but I am not fantastic at it! I am still practicing.

Softy for softies.

I also have a soft spot for soft toys!! Especially handmade ones, I have been making little felt owls lately, which have been a hit with my mates.

My little wish list.

  • Scarfs, coloured and patterned ones.
  • Plastic jewerly brooches, rings and beads.
  • Vintage wrapping paper, I use them in my collages.
  • Vintage tea towels.
  • Hand bags, big slouchy ones, vintage coloured ones and patterned ones.
  • Fashion Magazines from your counrty (old ones are fine!)
  • Anything with Bambi on it!
  • Anything with Hello Kitty.
  • Little note books.
  • Funky cushion covers
  • Retro Tees size medium
  • Paintings
  • Big retro sunglasses.
  • Anything owl related, necklaces especialy.
  • Ear muffs!(they can't be foung in oz!)
  • Interesting sticky notes.
  • Nana rugs.
  • Anything with rabbits or deers.
  • Spotty, stripey socks (knee high)
  • Old 1970-80's records.
  • Scarfs, spotty, floral, floaty.
  • Original Artworks.

Things I don't like.

Velcro shoes Skulls and skull related stuff Gory or gross things Brown or fawn things Rude people Mixing my foods together Flavoured yoghurt Haloween stuff Glittery fake diamond jewelry Dark chocolate Things made from or tested on animals Lipstick White clothes (Art teachers can never keep them clean!)

Comment: thanks for the package. alot of the stuff was not kawaii though (betty boop, glass beads, blank tags etc), which was what the swap required. i liked the hello kitty fabric though. anna october 20th: i never said anything about a disappointment so please don't act like i did. i appreciate that you wanted to send extras, but non-kawaii stuff really made up the bulk of the package, meaning they weren't really extras. nevertheless i appreciate the effort you made, which is why i rated you a 5.
Response: Sorry you were disappointed with your package. I will try to make a bigger effort to stick with the theme, I got a bit carried away with extras i thought you would like.

I just invited you to be a member of Classroom ATC. Have you ever thought it would be fun to have you kids trade art with other students from around the world. I'm an art teacher from Minnesota, USA and I want to do a ATC trade with other art teachers so we can have a professional conversation to see if Swap-bot might assist in Classroom ATC Trades. Join our swap and group if you want to learn more.
