Ghost ornament swappers: so excited to see everyone’s ideas! If you are stuck or want to try a different style or challenge, some ideas are I love old book pages or light academia style themes, edgar allen poe and classic english goth horror (picture dorian grey, dracula, etc), typography stamping, vampire fangs, anemone flowers or any flowers in the my fave color scheme, books, ravens, potion bottles, light green or whitish pumpkins these are just a couple ideas that would fit with my tree if you want to branch out. The color scheme for my tree is black, greys, cool neutrals, pale vanilla white, greyer whites, and bright white, mauve and eggplant purples and olive greens and sage greens. These are just ideas if someone wanted to break out of their box or wanted to try something themed and is not necessary, just ideas, I will love whatever is handmade and swapped! I know I personally like trying to do different themes to cater to my swapee and like to try new things and different styles, so if you want the challenge feel free. I can’t wait to see everyone’s unique style as well.

Historical period fiction and fairytales! Just finished the wheel of time which is a great series if you haven’t read it.

My favorite author is Anne Rice and I love vampires, her vampires especially because they all come from different time periods and she did a great job with researching that time period and giving a historically accurate portrayal of the period.

I also love gothic classics and british literature like Picture of Dorian Grey, Frankenstein, The White Woman, Jane Eyre etc.

Love chuck palahnuik, tom robbins, stephen king, and am up for most books in general.

Art anything art I love art it is one of my greatest passions. My current obsession is watercolor but I also paint in acrylic and oil and trying out gouache this year.

I also love journaling and pen-paling and love stationary.

I especially love items created with white, black and text/typography, grey neutrals, and stamped inks or calligraphy, floral patterns if not bright, patterns with no bright colors or with colors less saturated.

I love dark academia aesthetic and dark romantic goth witchy vibes along with dark cottage core. I also secretly love kawaii pastel things, shhh cause it’s a secret 🤫! I do love receiving kawaii themed mail sometimes but it isn't personal aesthetic or style but is very fun to get letters inspired by it that others make. I won’t use kawaii extras but will pass them on to penpals. I will always appreciate getting black and white kitties and cute girls, foxes, and witchy things like stars and moons, homey cottage house and landscapes, plants, and ghibli, harry potter
