My first name (Nieves) means snow in spanish. I love snow and snowflakes, I love old things, handmade anything, glitter!, red, hot pink, lime green, bright colors, stripes, polka dots, little things, plastic toys, tin toys, tiny toys, vintage toys, Japanese culture, cooking, baking, pin-up girls, skulls, Dia de los Muertos, Mexican culture and wrestling, Catholic imagery, saints, glow in the dark Marys, old ads or packaging, weird or cute stickers, art and craft supplies, sanrio and other Kawaii stuff, indy comics, weird, old or horror comics, vintage clothes and accessories, vintage buttons and fabric, miniture things, old plastic or metal stuff, wacky or weird things, one of my very favorite things are vintage nudie playing cards, especially the mini ones...

Comment: Greetings! My feeble mind thought I had already rated you. I loved my package, and it came at a very good time for me -- when I was a little under the weather. The wrapping was so interesting. My pin is very unusual, and will be a joy to wear. But my favorite was the kitty toy. I wish you could have seen Kitty Supreme holding it in his front paws and kicking as hard as he could with his back paws. And this is a rather sedate, 14-year-old kitty. He was quite pleased! I am going to share the cat bed instructions with several friends. You deserve two hearts for such a great package! Many, many thanks -- Mary
