My Wists - stuff I love

About Me

I am a married working mama w/ a little boy born in July '07. I love fashion, glamour, drama, humour, current events and foreign cultures.

Styles I like include: vintage, glamourous, sweet, japanese cute, asian, Indian, foreign cultures/languages, paintings, art. I love Anthropologie style as well as Amy Butler. I am an information junkie and I read a lot of newspapers and magazines, both serious and fluff (then again, who says Vogue is not serious?). I'm always trying to learn new things including languages, crafts, cooking, guitar, etc.

I try to rate ASAP, so don't hesitate to message me if you think I may have missed rating you. Also, I send out all my packages, and communicate when I will be late, so if you haven't received something from me and it has been a while, please contact me!

My Wish List:

  • Anything from or inspired by my Wists (link above)These are things I love and want!

  • Tees for my little boy (size 2T for fall/winter and 3T for spring summer) I love funny, hip or rock and roll tees for him. There are lots of examples on my Wists!

  • Toddler socks (size 2T or 3T)

  • Huge (I mean huge!) bibs to cover the baby when he's eating

  • Cute socks for me (size 8-9)

  • Beautiful pendants I can wear to work

  • Handmade or unusual postcards

  • Handmade or otherwise cute notecards, envelopes, etc

  • drawings

  • paintings

  • embroidery

  • something involving foreign language

  • foreign magazines

  • Kitschy stuff

  • 80s stuff

  • Nice markers or gel pens (art supply, not school supply)

  • Amy Butler fabric or paper

  • knitted stuff

  • something from one of my favorite movies

  • cushions or cushion covers

  • pillow covers

DISLIKES (I'm not picky, I swear! Note, generally if its handmade I will love it, if not, see below) I would rather not receive:

-Any food, candy, tea (anything edible)

-cosmetics including lip balm

-stuff with cats on it (I love cats, just don't want to be weird cat lady)

-dollar store junk, unless really unusual, funny or interesting

-pooh, disney, etc

-goth/gory stuff

-beads

Favorite Crafts

Sewing, papercrafts, decoupage, tie-dye, embellishing onesies and tees, embroidery, actually most crafts! I love getting knitted/crocheted things because I don't know how to do those! I love trading ATCs as well and I like the really creative arty ones or anything made with interesting fibers or textures. I don't like scrapbooking style ATCs. I think that too much use of scrapbooking materials takes away the creativity.

Favorite Music

This is a hard one to answer because I like everything! Besides pop, hip-hop, & r&B, I like international music (for example) salsa, Bollywood, etc. I like hearing songs in languages other than English. I like music from different eras as well, such as 70s, 80s, etc.

Favorite Television

The Office, 30 Rock, SNL, Daily Show, Project Runway

Favorite Movies

Rosemary's Baby, Persepolis, Fargo, Goodfellas, Rushmore, Big Lebowski, Best in Show, Waiting for Guffman, Life Aquatic, Election

Favorite Books

I read mostly non-fiction...politics, biographies, memoirs, how-to, etc.

Comment: Love them! No problem about the sleeves, if there aren't any on them, I just put my own on. That card is an extra in its self! And those cool papers and lace. Thank you so much. I love getting things I don't have.
Response: So glad you liked it all! Those cards cost extra to mail b/c they add so much weight, but I think they are worth it...I lucked out and got a great deal on a bunch like those and snatched them up for swaps!
