AshleeCoombes

Hello everyone!

My name is Ashlee Coombes. I am a 33 year old mother of two young kids. I recently got engaged, so I am busy planning a wedding. I love anything artsy/crafty. Garlands- I, starting to learn how to make them. One day I want to make with someone! Message me if you want to!

My passions are reading, cooking, being around my children, fiance, and family.

I love to garden, I have so many houseplants! Im that plant mom.

I have 4 dogs, yikes! They are so sweet and walking them is a favorite pastime.

I love sunshine, but cold, cloudy/rainy days are my favorite. We dont get those much here in West Texas! The sunsets here are amazing, sitting outside with a glass of wine and watching the beautiful colors in the sky is a nightly ritual.

Reading is up there on my favorite passions. I love historical fiction. That's about all I read! Finding new and good books is a challenge, so Im excited to participate in book swaps!

I love handmade knick knacks for around the house.

I love, love handmade mini albums and journals.

Anything with bright, pastel, cream and white colors draws me in. White and pink are my first and second favorite colors. I honestly hate orange and red anything, so please not too much of those 2.

I love glitter, ribbons, bits and bobs, and pretty beads.

Interactive and miniature anything are particular favorites of mine when crafting or receiving crafts.

Art journaling and happy mail are probably my top hobbies. Decorating envelopes to send to people is so fun.

I am constantly collecting ephemera. Vintage ledgers, dictionary pages and music sheets. As well as vintage foreign language books. Vintage shorthand is really cool too.

I am currently looking for pen pals! Old fashioned hand written letters with fun swap-bot twists! Message me if you are interested!

Florals patterns, flowers, plants, hearts, circles, cute doodles and designs are my style.

I love to look at handwriting and calligraphy.

No gothic, dark colors or modern design for me.

I have two planners, so I am obsessed with planner accessories and stickers.

I recently bought embroidery kits and am excited to work on those. I love learning anything new!

Papercrafts! Crafting is big in my family!

Dislikes:

The colors red and orange.

Modern patterns, style, modern anything.

Gothic or dark items

The smell of cigarette smoke

Kawaii- sorry!
