About Me

I love the creative boost I get from rubbing elbows with all you talented swap people! I'd love to be your hostess with the most-est! I love to do one on one private swaps too!

I love to design, sew, quilt. felt, craft, and write. I raise chickens as pets and for eggs. I love to cook, garden and feed the birds. I love wind chimes, photographing the butterflies, hummingbirds and wild birds. My yard is a butterfly sanctuary.

I have a great, raunchy sense of humor and dare you to offend me! At the same time, I love and admire all that is beautiful and good in this world, with a little splash of some good clean mud, just for fun!

Please...~ Don't send me anything scented, fragrance, perfume or that smells of cigarette smoke. I won't be able to use or appreciate it! I'm very allergic! Thanks for your understanding!

Favorite Books

I love books and am an avid reader. I read autobiographies, craft & quilting books, cook books, self-help, historical novels, atlases. I am surrounded by books. I love to listen to audiobooks and have a Libby app to check out books from home.

3 bags full...

I like to play with beeswax. I coat some of my postcards, ATC's and note cards with melted beeswax. It makes such a great surface and smells divine! I love working with natural materials. My favorite materials are wool, silk, beeswax, driftwood, found items and hypertufa.

I dye and degrease all the wool I use. It is a labor of love and my joy to make hand crafted gifts and surprises that are unique, specialized and one of a kind.

wish i could...

I love handwork. I love to upcycling items and love the concept of reusing quality items for new purposes.

Favorite Crafts

What I do...

I'm making custom vinyl, custom shirt designs, woodburning, zines, ornaments, felt desserts and miniature quilts, handmade stuffies-ducks, mushrooms, cupcakes, chickens, pickles, ATC's, matchboxes, scrapbook pages, dolls, yoni pillows and brooches.

to know me is to love me...

Love, apothecary, chicken, goose, turkey, bird, egg, corn, mermaids, tea parties, old spatulas, herbs, honeysuckle, roses, morning glories, sweet peas, jasmine, ROLLER DERBY, Halloween, Spring, fall.

Favorite colors, plums purples red violet to lavender fuchsia yellow/orange/green combos black/red/orange/yellow combos drab green mint green olive lime green khaki spring kelly blues & greens teal aqua royal sky cobalt hot pink & aqua Orange & hot pink Red and aqua Black and blue Neon's-esp. lime, pink, orange!

idiosyncrises

I don't like fragrance and have allergies. Please don't send me anything that smells of cigarette smoke! I won't be able to enjoy or use it. Thank you for your understanding! I love cats. I'm a night owl.

I am humbled and brought to higher heights of creativity thru the kindnesses & generosity I have received thru some very special people here! Thanks to all of you! You know who you are and I am grateful! I don't strive for perfection, but, for beauty. I'm not in a contest, I'm on a journey of discovery. I don't compare. Comparison is the thief of joy. I am grateful.

Thank you all who have become my teachers and inspirations! I hope you can see the beauty of my work thru it's perceivable imperfections and gifted love.

Your Swap hostess

badge As your swap hostess, I am meticulous about being accommodating and fair. If you have the desire to share, please come join my swaps. If you join my swaps and don't send, you are unwelcome in my swaps. Flaking is poor form, and a lack of common courtesy. I have a zero tolerance policy.

Please come join me in any of my swaps that interest you enough for you to follow thru with time & care. I consider the people in my swaps and the people I swap with my friends.

Swapbot IS a bot, but I am a real person here. And I work hard to make sure everybody gets to have fun. Please treat my swaps and your swap partners with the same respect.

BIA

If you don't receive something by 2 weeks after the 'send by date' (more if international) then contact me immediately! Once you rate your partner a 1, no-send, if they are still unresponsive to their commitment to sent their end of the swap, I will get busy making you a swap package to make up for the swaplifter. Please don't flake my swaps!

flaker5

If you have an unexplained/unresolved 'no-send' you will not be able to join my swaps. I know life happens and gets in the way. But nobody wants to be left out. I do this out of consideration for the thoughtful & talented people who do make swap-bot the great place it is! Thanks for your understanding!

I know unforeseen events can happen to derail our best laid plans. I am an understanding person and *as long as you are honest and forthright with me there is no problem.

No unexplained no-sends means you haven't left any kind of message in the response portion of the rating. If someone is going to rate you a 1, you at least have to go say SOMETHING-like 'sent, cannot resend', or 'postal problems', 'dog ate swap, remaking', 'sent 3 times will send again', or 'unfair rating left by jilted lover,'SOMETHING!!!

If you have any recent ones, I cannot let you in the swaps. It's just the way it is. I apologize for not allowing you in the swaps but these are the rules I have made for my swaps to keep them running smoothly and everyone happily receiving.

Even if I say this isn't a profile specific swap, please add something about yourself on your profile. A few words do not count as a filled out profile.

If there is a request in the swap description for you to add some info to the comments section, please do so before I assign partners or I may ban you. You will be hard pressed to find any reputable swap hosts around here who will accept a blank/inadequate profile. There is nothing worse than being partnered up with someone who doesn't have word one on their profile. Thanks for your understanding.

As always, I offer to private swap with anyone banned from my swaps. It's up to you to accept it graciously or not. I'm happy to swap with you, even if you didn't meet my swap requirements. But it's not fair to everyone else in my swaps if I fudge on the rules.

Hi NEWBIES!

I would love to do a private swap with you to help boost your ratings! Let me know and I can set a swap up!

Check out Swapbot's FAQ Page for great information on how to navigate the swaps and site.

I want to welcome you to swap bot. I apologize for not allowing newbies into many of my swaps.

When I get flakers & swaplifters in my swaps it makes me mad because these are my friends. Flakers, no accounts and the like are not. Don't flake on my friends!

Please PM your partner if you are sending late. It's called common courtesy. I look forward to having you be a part of my swaps.

Here are some badges you are free to use from the Altered Ernie Graphics swap

Comment: Laura, thank you so much for the two interesting zines and the nice (also interesting) note! I especially liked the Thanksgiving recipes zine and I think Iโ€™ll try the corn pudding and your version of cornbread dressing this year. ๐Ÿฆƒ As per your note, I do get the โ€˜blahsโ€™ myself, sometimes. Ugh! Not fun! Iโ€™m not much for sewing, but I did enjoy the last thing I made - Japanese Knot Bags. Now, besides zines, my interest is leading me to try making tiny dioramas (of sorts) in bottlecaps. Wish me luck!๐Ÿ€ I hope the fires in your area get extinguished soon. ๐Ÿ˜ข
