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...

Welcome to Inspiration Station!
Thank you for responding! I was just curious, I know that it's pretty common for people with longer names (me included) to have nicknames and preferences. I like for people to use my full name too (Teshia) but a lifetime of mispronunciations has made me answer to just about anything as long as the person is looking in my general direction lol. A lot of my friends prefer to call me Tish, though I've gone by Tesh, and even things like Tissue and Tshirt. My siblings are the ones responsible for those last two lol.
