niinas

Hello!

My name is Niina, I'm 27 years old and I live in Sweden.

What I enjoy doing: Traveling, journaling, reading, crafting, hiking (or doing any kind of outdoor activity) and spending time with friends and family.

I especially like collecting flat items and ephemera that I can put in my journal or use in my mail art.

Stationary and journaling supplies (ephemera, notepads, stickers, washi tape, journaling cards, nice papers, notecards, pens and so on)

Anything with maps (especially old/vintage/retro ones)

Air-mail themed items

Interesting illustrations from old books

Old postage stamps

Vintage botanical/animal illustrations

Nature themed illustrations/prints (trees, acorns, feathers and those kind of things)

Illustrations in general (I prefer illustrations to photographs)

Ravens

Penguins

Otters

Woodland creatures (especially deers and foxes)

National parks (I love postcards from National parks)

Fairy tales

Scary things (ghosts, witches, skeletons and so on)

Watercolor paintings

Harry Potter (I'm a Ravenclaw and I would love anything that shows some Ravenclaw pride!)

Zombies (I love The Walking Dead)

History

Castles

Sugar skulls

Mountains (postcards, prints and illustrations)

Clear unmounted stamps

Watercolor pencils (I use them in my journal all the time)

Lettering and typography

Colors I like: Blue, green, yellow, gold, silver, bronze, orange, coral, teal, pastels, natural colors

I'm pretty easy to please, I prefer paper items and things I can use in my creative projects.

But I still want to give you an idea of things that I'm not that into:

Religious items

Coffee, tea or food

Anything with snakes or reptiles

Hello Kitty (I do like other more unusual kawaii characters though)

Disney Princesses (or other typically "girly things")

Stickers for kids (including reward stickers)

I love stickers but I prefer flat stickers to puffy/thick stickers because otherwise my journals would get way to bulky.

The Walking Dead (I'm really excited about the new season), Downton Abbey and True Detective
