I\'m a 38 year old woman from Finland. I have 2 boys (ages 6 and 10) and a husband. We live in an old house that we are fixing... lasts forever but we love the house and the place!

I like tea (all kinds), traveling, Scrabble, board games, stationary, candles, fabrics, buttons, ribbons, yarns, polka dots, stripes, houses, leaves, trees, lovely handmade items etc. I really like all kinds of creative stuff.

I love everything simple but still beautiful, rather than something very complicated and \"overdone\". Rather plain than too fancy. I would describe my style simple, scandinavian and quite practical :)!

I don\'t like strongly scented things (give me a headache!), golden things, religious stuff, funny/girly things.

For all my swap partners... I\'d really love to read a little bit about you too, besides receiving a nice swap, so please include at least a small note to go with the swap. Thanks!!!

I enjoy making all kinds of handmade paper things like cards, collages, ATCs, Inchies, paper quilting and paper mache things. I also like sewing, felting, crocheting, embroidery and I also enjoy trying new techniques. I would love to know how to paint well... but I still need a lot of practice in that area, and more time too.

My favorite colors are red, white, blue, grey and black. I also like dark brown (especially with turquoise), olive green and teal. I enjoy nice colors and lovely patterns. Fluorescent or neon colors aren\'t my thing!
