About Me

Artist creating altered art (fairies, angels, mermaids), faux cakes, jewelry.

Love vintage, antique, shabby chic, cottage style.

I do work full time & sell Avon on the side my art is my biggest hobby besides my boys.

I adore going to auctions & thrift stores for new treasures. I like glitter too!

I'm a Capricorn & do fit the profile.

I have a sweet tooth & love to bake.

I'm an animal lover & would have a zoo if I could.

I live with all boys & luv to be girly & glittery.

Favorite Crafts

Altered Art, Acrylic painting on canvas, Beading - jewelry, polymer clay sculpting, vintage ephemera. Love most any supply I can make something out of. Love to make 1/2 aprons adore cute fabric & seam binding, rick rack.

Favorite Colors / Flowers

Pink, Green, Brown, Yellow, Robin egg blue I really hate to choose just one color!

Fav flower would be: Pansy I have a whole wall dedicated to pics of them. I do like old fashioned cabbage roses as well.

Whimsy

Favorite Music

Wide range I have CD's everything from Broadway, Classical, Punk, Country, Reggae, R&B, to Pop, 80's music. I adore music & usually always have some playing. The only thing I don't care for is rap & loud screaming.

Favorite Books

Absolutely love books - own more than I'll probably ever read & can't stop myself from buying more. I collect vintage children's books, old cookbooks.

Favorite Movies

(80's child that I'am) - Sixteen Candles, Under the Tuscan Sun, Sex & the City, Lord of the Rings, the Patriot, P.S. I Love You, Harry Potter, West Side Story, Rebel without A Cause, The Notebook, The Crow.

Collections

mmmmm Yes I admit I'm a collector of; vintage items be it linens, dishes, knick knacks, pictures, cabinet cards, old postcards/greeting cards, lace, buttons, jewelry, aprons, teacups. Bird nests, cupcake things, dolls. I do have a doll house & like miniatures. Last summer I created a Fairy Garden outside too. I've even been known to save rocks! If it strikes my fancy I keep it what can I say.

Kids & Pets

I'm the proud mom of 2 boys: Matt (16), Adam (12) we live in a non smoking house but do have pets: Guinea pig (Sqeakers), Leopard Gecko (Jacobi), Shih-Zhu (Jack), Mini Schnauzer (Belle), Cat (Spike), Cat (Gizmo) my wee menagerie.

Favorite treats

Chocolate dark or milk, (imported is best, due to the fact it's not so waxy.) Not a big fan of white choc. I'm a tea, cappucino drinker, not into coffee much. Favorite combo is mint chocolate or choc & peanut butter. Not a fan of coconut or black licorice. I luv choc chip cookies, ice-cream. I'm the crazy girl that would rather eat the cookie than the icing in an oreo. Also like candles in baked food scents.

Wishlist

Anything vintage in nice condition my style is a bit eclectic. *Old doll parts / pieces, *keys, *beads, *buttons, *hankies, *lace, rick rack, seam binding, *fabric prints, *paisley items, *pansy items, *cupcake items, *yellow & red retro kitchen decor, *cabinet cards / sepia photos, *old postcards / valentines, *victorian style items, *old jewelry bits & pieces / baubles, *surprises

I PLEDGE TO RATE what I pledged http://www.swap-bot.com/forums/topic/7681

I pledge to other swap-bot members to:

  1. Rate for every swap i take part in.

  2. Rate as soon as i am able to get on line after swap is received.

  3. Rate Fairly, I will only give a 1 rating if a swap hasn't been received and that no contact has been made from the sender. I promise to pm member first to give them the chance to resolve the situation first.

    1. I will only give a 3 if i feel that the swap didn't meet the requirements and that the partner chooses not to correct the swap.
  4. I will try and leave a message on all ratings to state what i received and what i was happy with, even if its just a thank you.

  5. I will not use slander or badmouth anyone when given a rating, facts is all that is needed when rating a 1

PLEASE I'm having trouble lately with people neither acknowledging or rating me. I take time & effort to participate & only ask that you have the courtesy to reciprocate.
