Favorite Crafts
I do a wide variety of crafts, and have the craft room to prove it, lol. Things I love to do: Altered art, crocheting, sewing, beading (have tons of beads), painting, paper crafts, making resin charms etc.
Interests....
Things that interest me.
*Anatomy and medicine.
*Books, vintage and different languages espcially, I use the pages in art. But I do actually love to read real books.
*Miniatures
*Dollhouses
*anything with a Gothic theme
*anything Victorian, I love their obsession with nature and medicine.
*Zombies
*ghosts
*cryptids (BIGFOOT!!!)
*Steampunk
*Animals (even reptiles!)
*Butterflies and dragonflies
*Spiders (I like the image of them, but don't like them in real life.)
*I collect vintage glass mason jars, and I LOVE the ones with the glass lids. I also collect antique perfume bottles.
*Swarovski crystal beads
*Beads (glass or stone only.)
Dislikes...
I'm allergic to nickel, like cheap jewelry. Sterling silver and stainless is fine tho. I don't wear gold jewelry, it makes me look funny.
I dislike most insects, see above for the exceptions.
Please don't send religious materials. I will laugh and then throw it away. I am an atheist, and I'm not looking to get converted, thanks.

Response: Haha its ok, I really just wanted to make sure it got to you intact...I was a little worried about it! Glad it made it there, and am glad you liked it! It was beautiful!
Response: Glad they arrived! Have fun making all kinds of things! :D
Response: haha, yeah I like to get my swaps out early! Glad you liked the package!
Response: Glad they arrived! Hope you can make some cool stuff with them!
Response: Oh yes we can totally do a decopauge swap. Just let me know what you want to make! And thanks for the heads up on the stationary it was sooo cute! I think I used the ones with the bird cages? If so, I got that at michael's, if it was plastic hello kitty or something, I probably got it on etsy, lol.
Response: yay! I'm glad you like it!
Response: In my response to this, I'd just like to point anyone looking at this to the photos of the box I sent. http://www.flickr.com/photos/starsandsparrows/sets/72157628073390294
This is the altered box I sent her.
I had posted her name in the non raters forum, because she took over 2 months to rate me. Not once ever, did earthnk contact me about her disappointment in the swap I sent. In that time, I contacted her twice about rating me. The first time I contacted her, I was told she was out of country and would rate me when she returned. On 11.6 I posted to her profile to please rate me. She then replied to my post in the non raters group with "You are rated. I was so looking forward to this swap but greatly saddened when I saw you had my name. Past group issues left me feeling not to expect much and boy did you pay off in spades there." My membership in FOK has no influence on what I make for other people on this site. For the record, I never once spoke to this person in said group, and she left right as I was joining.I just want everyone to see what she was "very disappointed" in. EDIT: I don't know why you just suddenly changed your response to this rating, but it kind of irritates me. Why change it now almost a year later? Did you try to go back in there and give me a 3 and couldn't? .
Response: No worries! I'm just glad that it got to you and that you like it!!!
Response: I'm glad you like them! I tried to pick out ones from my collection that you would like :)
Response: Sweet! Always nice to meet someone who has stuff in common! You're welcome to friend me!
Response: Oh me too! I always wanted to live on a ranch and have tons of animals! lol
Response: I'm glad you liked it!!! Thanks for the heart!
Response: I'm glad you like what I sent and I'm glad it arrived safe and sound!
Response: Sweet! I'm glad it found its way to you! I had fun creating it, and glad you are having fun with the stuff inside! I packed in as much as I could in those tiny drawers!
Response: yay! I'm glad it made it to you safe and sound! and you're very welcome!
Response: Sweet! I'm glad you liked it! I guessed on the color, because I had it pretty much done when you PM'd me back. lol. Thanks for the rating!

As a previous fellow Renoite, I just wanted to drop by and say hi. :)
I love your Nevermore tattoo. But I'm sad to see that you aren't doing anymore swaps. :(
