All my swaps have been sent & I am taking a break from swapping to catch up with pen pal letters; I will continue to rate as I open mail. If for any reason you need to contact me, you can still message me through the site & I will check it as soon as I can. Stay safe everyone!

If you're looking for a tuck in to send me.. I love stickers! My favorite are washi, cute, cozy, colorful & any with dogs! I prefer not to receive children, reward, character, puffy, dollar store, or ones with words. Notecards & creatively shaped memo pad sheets (basically not square ones, any with a cute shape - of an animal or whatever) are top on my list too. My 2nd favorite things are postcards, bookmarks & cute letter paper/kawaii memo pad paper - things like that.

I do not want used stamps, ribbon or any type of crafting things like yarn & thread, handmade envelopes, scrapbook paper, etc. I simply don't use them.

I'd love to know where you get your stationery from (online stores if possible)! Especially washi, notecards & stickers.

Watching something on Netflix, Hulu or Amazon Prime? At the moment I'm zooming past shows like it is my calling. I'll give anything a try & would love to hear your recommendations.

Reading is a passion & I could use more books in my TR list. I'm looking for recommendations in the thriller/psych (the more twists the better), contemporary fiction, dystopian sci-fi, lgbtq+, mental health, self-help, & poetry... please no historical fiction, sappy romance/chick lit or memoirs. Send over your goodreads username if you have one!

If you send me an ATC or any form of your art, it will go on my fridge! Seeing them makes me happy. Oh & I really like zines!

Hi, I'm Ali. I'm 27 & I live with my wonderful partner in a geese filled state of felicity. I watch too much tv, read past my bedtime & have an immense fondness for food. I'm scared of mostly everything, scream with joy when I see a dog & if possible would buy everything in any shade of pink.

Currently Watching: The Haunting of Hill House (Netflix)

Previously Watched: Monsterland (Hulu)

I tend to fangirl really quickly over things I just watched. If you are into what I'm currently watching or previously watched & wanna ramble on about it or share your thoughts, write about it in your swap. I truly insist!

Halloween & Valentine's Day.

The letter R.

Flowers.

Anime. Especially movies.

The sun, the moon & the stars.

Sanrio & most kawaii.

Colors. Especially pink, orange, blue & yellow.

Virgo & Scorpio things.

Horror movies & clowns.

Earthly smells. Water, trees, rain, the ocean, forests, etc.

Birds (land & water - ducks!), pigs, otters, hedgehogs, sharks, elephants, rats, hamsters, bunnies, raccoons, quokkas, dogs, squirrels, bears. & dogs, dogs, dogs & more dogs! I love dogs 🐕. I like cat stationery, but not a fan of physical cats (I'm allergic - achoo!)

Disney! Favorites: Belle, Pua, Lady, Mickey & Minnie, Anna & Elsa, Marie & Dumbo.

One of my biggest pet peeves is receiving mail that I know took you 10-15 minutes to put together. I don't expect a full art project but at least take the time to put some stickers on the envelope & write more than just a generic vague message. I want HAPPY mail, not something I'll open & throw away because it is meaningless. I have gotten so many like that recently & it is so unfortunate

No tea, please. I don't drink it. it will just be left in a cabinet until I remember & be thrown out unless I am in a swap where I can send tea bags.

Religion. I am not against it but I don't practice any so I wouldn't want to offend anyone in any way.

As much as I love flowers, I cannot stand the smell due to chronic migraines. Same with fruity fragrances.

Cars, wedding, baby shower, very old school things, sports, steampunk, used stamps, chocolate.
