I promise to always send the swaps I join! So if you haven't gotten something, message me and I'll let you know exactly when it got in the mail. If it seems to be lost, I'll do my best to remake and resend it.

I'm a mom, a wife, a blogger and just recently became gainfully employed! I love reading, walking, volleyball, yoga and shopping. I'm always on the lookout for bargains, freebies and coupons.

My favorite color is purple. I can never have too many lip balms. I like fun notepads and interesting pens. I used to have a pink pen in the shape of a flamingo! I collect miniatures - anything smaller than a quarter that shouldn't normally be that small will get added to my curio shelf. Someday I'll own a MINI Cooper but until then I'll collect miniature Mini's (ha) and all MINI paraphernalia. My current car is a Fiat.

I'd love to receive a bento box, anything kawaii, and things from outside the US.

I love anything flavored mint or peppermint but I hate spearmint. I love tea, especially peppermint, lemon and jasmin flavors. I'm a vegan, so please NO food stuffs with meat or dairy ingredients. I DO NOT like black licorice flavor or peanut butter candy. I like lilac, jasmin, and gardenia scents. Lilacs are my favorite flower.

We have three cats and two guinea pigs.

I have a lot of favorite authors: John Grisham, Maive Binchy, Diana Gabaldon, Victoria Thompson, Sara Donati, Fern Michaels and many others. I especially love historical romance and mysteries, My favorite book of all time is Project Sunlight by June Strong.

Oh how I love my shows! We don't have cable so I watch everything on Netflix and Hulu. I eagerly awaiting the new season(s) of Criminal Minds, Green Arrow, Supergirl, The Flash, and my guilty pleasure Outlander.

I'd love to get items you've made or found from Wonderfalls and Firefly. They cancel all the really good shows, don't they?

I have started many 'projects' of different kinds over the years. I have so-so sewing skills, can do basic crochet, and like to collect scrapbook items to use in other crafts. I'm a bad painter but I love spreading the water colors and paints on occasion.

My swaps here have really gotten me hooked on crochet. I've been collecting hooks and scavenging yarn from all the thrift shops in town. I'd love to get yarn, even leftovers from your projects and hooks of all shapes and materials.

I earned my BS in Graphic Design in 2001. I'm always redoing forms on my computer and creating paper products for myself: greeting cards, business cards, contact cards, brochures for family, spreadsheets, calendars, game score pads, you name it! I have two boys so my house is always chaotic. My work experience is mostly in finance and accounting. I enjoy 'running the numbers'. I'm constantly looking for ways to reuse, reduce, and recycle. I'd love to receive things you make from reclaimed materials. I would love to receive anything organic, natural, green or vegan.

Yup, it's already happened to me too. Send me the swap and I'll remove your name and change the rating:
