i like to make nice things out of stuff that has been thrown away, a favourite of mine being old jam jars decorated with paint and cut outs from old magazines.

i like to knit, a lot.

and crochet, often.

and im just getting to grips with my sewing machine.

Im a 22 year old fundraiser for various charities in Glasgow, Scotland.

Letterwise im up for talking about anything, absolutely anything, and i write really long ones because i like getting them :D

To be honest im fairly easy to please. My favourite physical things are

• floral or bird print

• things that are/look old

• stuff that other people think is utter crap

• wool

• PVC things

• fruit/veg print

• woodland critters

• But to be truthful id be happy no matter what you sent me!

If i had to be totally specific about what i would like to get it would most likely be:

a postcard from your area

a mix cd

retro knitting patterns

anything victoriana

anything floral

or maybe even your favourite recipe

jars

magazines

teabags

comics

cross stitch pictures

condoms

boiled sweets

paper cake cases

glass bottles

metal tins or wooden boxes

hair slides

wool/yarn

knitting/crochet needles

craft books

stationary (pens/paper/envies)

perfume bottles

knitted emblems/granny squares

kitchen utensils

old books

film cameras/film

ALSO AT THE MOMENT I AM COLLECTING RING PULLS SO SEND ME YOUR RINGPULLS, DOESNT MATTER WHAT KIND :p AAAAND 340GRAM EMPTY SPAM TINS

colours: i go mad for greens of any hue, i like orange and purple too. but a good mix of any colours will make me happy :D

I play the violin so i guess to an extent that via osmosis i like traditional scottish music, i also love red hot chilli peppers, anything from th 80's, gogo bordello, tinie tempah, anything from the sixties

I love Ian Banks, Joanne Harris, Charlotte Bronte and any books on crafts.

candywise, dried fruit is my candy! especially dried mango, yum :D other than that i love popping candy and bubble gum: kids stuff :P
