About Me

After almost two years of swapping it's time for an update in my profile :) Soo - my Sons are now 5 and 3, and I'm back at work - it was so great to be with them at home and I'm sorry it's over.I still love handmade things, to do them and to receive ;) Every free moment (usually at night) I'm thinking what to do: craft something, read a book, watch tv or maybe go to sleep :) because my kids are full of energy in the morning. Usually crafting is the winner and that's why I'm always sleepy :) Going back to work took some free time from crafting, and now I prefer to spend every moment with my Boys.

About swapping: I rate the same day I get the package and I also try to reuse envelopes as often as I can. If you will have any question about swap just ask :) If you have some idea of private swap PM me :)

Favorite Books

Terry Pratchett, Harlan Coben, Jan Karon, Roland Topor, Fannie Flagg these are just few that are near my bed right now - I love all of their books. I really can't pick one or few. There are sooo many, I generally love books :) and creative bookmarks ;) I love all DIY and other creative and inspirational books, any 'how to' :)

Favorite Movies

All with Keanu Reeves ;) Old ones - with Cary Grant, James Stewart, Thin man with Myrna Loy and William Powell, old Miss Marple, West Side Story, Gone With The Wind and many other. The list is really long cause there was a time in my life that I nearly lived in cinema ;)

Favorite Television

I rather don't watch tv, mainly because I don't have a time ;) but I like CSI Las Vegas very much. Criminal series are my favorites. I also enjoy comedy series like: Monty Python and other their works: Fawlty Towers and their movies But Friends will be my best ever :)))

Favorite Crafts

Cross stitching, jewellery making, sewing, lately felting (wet and needle), love to play with FIMO clay. I have big plans to try scrapbooking, I would like to do some albums for my boys. And of course also cooking :)

Favorite Music

No particular one - it depends on the mood and weather and how the stars look on the sky ;) just as long as it sounds nice it's OK. On one of my favourite CD are: Nine Inch Nails, Tori Amos, Pearl Jam, Joss Stone, Anouk, Nirvana, Sigur Rose... so you see, it's really mixed ;)

Dislikes & things I don't use

  • dark chocolate
  • spiders
  • kawaii - it's too sweet, but I like zakka things :)
  • anime/manga
  • neon pink (but I like delicate pastels)
  • plastic things --> non ecofriendly
  • makeup - I use it so rarely

Likes and useful stuff

  • I will be more than happy if I get clear shrinking plastic :)
  • bookmarks
  • beads (just no plastic ones)
  • crafting accessories, tools
  • sharpies cause here I can get only black one
  • fabric - cotton with interesting pattern
  • lip balms - especially in some funny boxes
  • nice cabochons that I can use to make some jewellery

  • Mucha and art nouveau style

  • matrioshkas
  • oriental style - ie looking for geisha pattern
  • salamandras and colorful lizards
  • tucans :)
  • cats
  • owls and woodland style
  • zakka style
  • everything that is ecofriendly
  • letters from you my dear swappers ;)
  • I make all kind of jewellery but I wear only earrings :)

Meeting new people is always fun, swaps are a nice benefit :) and suprise is best :)

Tea

  • I'm not a fan of rooibos, unless it's with vanilla ;)
  • I like licorice but in veeery small dose ;)
  • Same thing about spicy teas - I like them but not too strong :)
  • Please no plain teas
  • I like especially unusuall flavors
  • I like lavender taste
  • Healthy, herbal teas
  • Calming and for better sleep
  • I like almost all Bigelow teas and my best of the best is AriZona ginger and honey :)

Dear Kasia,

Thank you sooooo much for the many teatags you send me. They are so good and many of them I didn´t have, so you made my collection grow. So nice. And I really loved loved loved and adored the teabrick. I never heard or saw it before, I will try it on a special occasion. Your envelope was a very nice surprise for me. Thank you so much ;-))

I love personalizing my belongings and I also like reading. To combine both, I came up with the idea of creating a profile related bookmark swap. This swap was created before the group.

Please feel free too visit my Profile Related Bookmark Swap and join.

Hoping we will have a lot of fun because I intend to do a series of them, but they will be within the Bookmarks of all kinds group that you can check and ask to join.

Happy swaps. Toupti =D
