“Swap-kind offer”

Is there any volks/dollfies fan over here? I’ve got some dollfies’ clothing I made quite as an experiment and they’re lonely and undressed into a box, and though I’ve tried to find somebody to enjoy them, that’s not such a common hobby over here. That’s the reason why I’m giving it to those who want and I’m only asking for a cool picture of your doll with my handmade clothes in return to add it to my crafts album; there aren’t full outfits but clothes and complements, so contact me if you’re interested in what I have so they can bright and ornate your marvellous dolls ;)

I'm a Spanish girl from wonderful Canary Islands and now living in mainland. I enjoy the good facts of living here such as the big amount of different people and cultures you can find but also like travelling and learning new things from all over the world. I like knowledge and sharing it, so there's no better way to it than talking, conversating and having fun with different and open-minded people :)

Right now I'm into the process of creating an etsy store to let my creativity go wild :) I set a store at artesanum, another platform where I can expose all that origines from my crafty imagination.

I love crafts and have tried many of them, actually everything that allows my imagination and creativity fly free. At the moment I do mainly needle work, knitting, crocheting, sewing, embroidery (most of the time cross stitch and yugoslavian point) but also have made some drawing, FBs and deco booklets, painting, glass decoration and even woodwork.

Well, I usually choose the music I listen to depending on my mood, but my favourite genres are celtic, ethnic from many places, techno and dance, specially the 80's dance hits, also some rock if I fell like it. I don't pay so much attention to the singers themselves but to the specific song; despite this, among my most usual artist you could find Carlos Núñez, Chieftains, Kate Ryan, Corvus Corax, Nox, vocal and gothic rock stars and the oldies rock'n'roll stars as well.

Some books I loved to read were:

• Paulo Coelho's Momo.
• S.E. Hinton's Outsiders (or "Rebels" as in its Spanish title).
• Umberto Eco's The Name of The Rose.
• Ken Follet's The Pilars of the Earth.
• Dragonlance saga -- the Chronicles.

I really enjoy fantasy and sci-fi movies and series, huge art works like Babylon V, Stargate saga, Quantum Leap and, have to mention even thought it's not amnog sci-fi, Macgiver :D (I grew up looking those amazing invents!) but right now there are very good sci-fi series, as Kyle XY, Heroes or Eureka. Recently I've re-discovered and outstanding one - Battlestar Galactica, wow, all those who really recommend it to me, they all were right!

• I can speak Spanish, English, French, Catalan and Esperanto, unfortunately not all of them with the same fluency.
• I like how Irish Gaelic, Russian and Scandinavian languages sound, so I'd like learning some of those languages some day :)
• I love tasting different cookings, I really enjoy Centre European cooking, Canadian maple syrup, Asian and of course, marvelous and tasty Mediterranean cooking from Spain.
• I like tea, mainly green and, above all, red tea (Pu Erh) I really recommend all tea/infusion lovers to try it! I also like fruit infusions but cannot stand rooibos, sorry!
• Chocolate... I love it! Excepting white chocolate, every kind of it fits to me.
• I enjoy art decó. I think it's elegant and balanced as a style and like watching the works of that period.
• My shoe size is Europe 40, USA 9.
• My clothing size is Europe 42-44, USA 12-14.
• About fave colours, well, actually there isn't any I really dislike, all of them are perfect in some place/ocassion/item, so it's wonderful all them exist!
