Important Information

9 January 2014:

I am so sorry for my absence this last year (and all swaps that were not received). I will be contacting each person to make sure I have their correct current address and marking all swaps with 1's as unsent until they are sent or resent.

If you are interested in why I was gone, please continue reading:

All 3 of us were hit with several illnesses over the last year. On top of that, I lost my grandmother in July (she was my last living grandparent and the one who taught me to crochet when I was 10.) After so long, we finally found out why none of us could get back to good health - the house we were renting (it was full of mold due to a leaking roof and holes forming in the walls).

We will be completely moved out by Monday January 13, 2014 and then I will begin making up all the swaps that are missing!

Themes I like

Basic Themes I collect:

Fae (Dark and Light faeries--not Disney type fairies), Vampires, Angels (Dark and Light), all animals (especially wolves and black panthers), fantasy art, rainbows, and celestial. Favorite Colors: red, black, blue, green and rainbow.

I enjoy different teas (except French Vanilla, plain Rooibos, and Yerba Mate) and am always willing to try new one. Also, hot chocolates whether plain or flavored (either regular for the kids or sugarfree for hubby and I.

my boys

Family Allergies

I am highly allergic to:

  • yellow gold (jewelry cannot be real gold or gold-plated unless it is white gold) -paints are ok as long as it is not on something I will be wearing!
  • shellfish
  • mushrooms
  • most perfumes (especially Avon)
  • cigarette smoke.

My husband is highly allergic to:

  • cigarette smoke
  • lavendar (even a mild scent of lavendar causes him to go into respiratory attack!)

Dislikes

flowery scents

perfumes

pink

lavendar (the color and the scent)

I am not extremely picky unless there is an allergy in the household!

Favorite books, movies, tv

Books: Harry Potter, Twilight, most Vampire or Werewolf books, Sleeping Beauty (by Anne Rampling)

Movies: Harry Potter, Twilight, anything with Jim Carrey.

Television: The Biggest Loser, Switched at Birth, The Voice, Supernatural, Warehouse 13, Vampire Diaries, Being Human

Favorite Crafts

Crocheting (just started doing amigurami and having fun) , Knitting (still new--can do bookmarks and washclothes), papercrafts, learning new crafts. Making Notecards!

Starting to learn how to make different candies and cake decorating.

Have started participating in journal swaps and I enjoy doing both complete journals, shared journals, and tip-in pages.

Starting to really like doing ATCs and matchboxes even though I am new at them both-if you receive either from me, please feel free to PM me with suggestions for improvement :)

I also like making lunch bag books!

About Me

If you have read this far, I assume you would like to know a bit about me ;)

I am a wife and mother. I have been crocheting since I was 10 and have learned how to knit. I love learning new crafts! I am starting to make amigurumi animals (and have completed one doll--Edward from Twilight for a swap!)

I enjoy photography with my husband. He takes mainly portraits and I take mainly pet photos. We hope to open our own photography and graphic business in the next couple of years!

Comment: 3+ years and finally getting a rating to you! I do feel bad and I am embarrassed about it also. I have been on an emotional roller coaster and I am hoping that it has finally came to an end. Life is not always fair. But we will survive! A while back, I promised myself to make right all the people and ATC's I have neglected to complete. It has been bugging me, as this has never been how I usually handle things. A few days late possibly, but always completed. I am so sorry about this and I do hope that this long awaited rating, will bring your paperwork to a 100% close at for anything I still owe you. If there is something else that you are missing from me, please let me know asap. Again ... Sorry!!!
