I like decoupage, altered art, paper crafting. I love almost anything vintage: ephemera, old ads, old postcards, quirky old photos, broken old brooches, one earring from a vintage set, parts from games, old magazine pictures, etc.

I love colors of all sorts...pastels, brights, rainbow colors, all hues. Favorite color combos are cherry red/aqua, pink/lime green, light blue/lavender, etc.

Halloween! I love Halloween. Not cute Halloween but not super scary Halloween either.Maybe vintage creepy Halloween describes it best...spidery writing on aged looking labels, old school witches, bats, pumpkins, spooky stuff!

I am fascinated by carnivals, so anything carnival game or act related is cool. Ringmasters and knife throwers and trapeze artists and strong men...red and white striped graphics...bold playbill looking fonts...

Bees/honey/hive graphics are interesting me lately. The hexagon shapes that all fit together.

I like ruins...anything with a semi-dilapidated look is what I make a beeline towards at garage sales. Particularly if it is wood. I like to transform old wooden objects.

Supplies I like: bottle caps, stickers, small scraps of pretty paper, glitter, rubber stamps, ink pads, and um, how did I ever live without washi tape?

I don't like anything too gory or horror-filled. Nothing too cute or too perfect or too modern.
