Hello, I'm Anne-Marie! I'm 30-something and single, born and raised in Quebec, Canada. I enjoy reading, crafting, surfing social media, watching TV/movies/YouTube, and writing snail mail! :)

I enjoy baking and decorating and I took a French pastry course a few years ago.

I dabble in lots of things, but these are the ones I've done the most/had the most success with...

One of my favourite crafting mediums is polymer clay. I (try to) make Christmas ornaments to sell at local craft fairs every year. I also make jewelry, cake toppers, figurines, etc. I would love to do a related swap sometime!!

I enjoy crocheting. I haven't really made anything more complicated than afghans and hats, but it's fun. Something to do in front of the TV in the winter.

Paper crafting... I have been playing around with pocket letters recently and having a lot of fun with that. I have also dabbled with flip books in the past and am thinking about trying that again, I adore anything stationery (Post-Its, memo sheets, letter writing sets, cute pens, notecards, postcards, washi tapes, stickers...).

I have also recently picked up sewing again. My most recent projects have been reusable makeup pads, "un-paper towels" and book sleeves.

I love reading! I'm currently working toward a goal of reading 100 books in 2020.

My favourite genres are murder mystery/crime fiction, young adult (all of them, but especially romance and fantasy), and girly fluff reads. I also enjoy a good middle grade/ children's book (Harry Potter, Nevermoor...)

Some of my favourite authors are Louise Penny, Cecelia Ahern, J.K. Rowling...

I don't like choosing favourites (maybe you can tell), but if I had to choose a favourite book, it would be The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. I love the magic and all the imagery.

I have been watching more YouTube than TV or movies lately, but there are new seasons on Netflix of Umbrella Academy and Good Girls that are calling to me! I also really want to make time to watch The One and Only Ivan and Star Girl on Disney+, and I can't wait for Mulan to become available!

I collect Harry Potter stuff! I am a Ravenclaw - that's the blue house, with the bird mascot. :)

I also collect Funko figurines! I have several Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts, and Disney characters. I think they're really cute.

I love handmade Christmas ornaments! I have a collection of crocheted snowflake tree ornaments. I also really love anything with gingerbread people.

Stuff you can (almost) never go wrong with: * cupcakes * polka dots * unicorns * mermaids * rainbows * cats * cacti * florals * books / bookstores / libraries

I'm quite girly, so I enjoy things like: * nail polish * hair accessories * jewelry

Favourite colours: * pink * turquoise / teal * purple * gold * mint green * peach / coral

Unfortunately, I DO NOT LIKE coffee or tea. I will on occasion drink a hot chocolate or apple cider, but for the most part I just prefer cold drinks. :)

However, if it is a swap requiring you to send a hot beverage and you only have tea/coffee, just send what you have. I can always pass them along!

I adore chocolate, but I don't really like chocolate scented items. I also don't like fruit & chocolate flavour combos. Chocolate & mint is great, tho ;)

I like most floral scents EXCEPT rose and lavender.

I've seen other people make a section like this, and it's a pretty great idea for profile-based swaps, so here goes...

• Pretty stationery sets (matching letter sheets & envelopes)
• Harry Potter merch (Ravenclaw or Hogwarts in general)
• Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them merch (anything Niffler or Newt Scamander)
• Disney-related items (Peter Pan, Alice, any of the princesses...)
• Funko Pop! figurines
• Chapters/Indigo gift card
• Book quote items (art prints, jewelry, notebooks, etc)
• Unused Canadian postage stamps (my Post Office is small and we don't always get all the pretty new stamps)
• L.O.L. Surprise! Doll
• aluminum crochet hooks with handle (6.0mm to 8.0mm sizes)
• Magnetic bookmarks
• Treats from other countries (I don't care much for licorice, but my family members do, so if it's all you have, it's ok ;) )
