About Me

Crunchy Mama bird to three little chicks, Girl Geek and Craft Goddess. I'm an avid tea drinker. I value my mind more than my looks. I trust [too] easily and love too strong. I am pierced and tattooed. I reduce, reuse & recycle.

My Loves!

I love:

Owls - 'nough said!

Kokeshi or Matryoshka Dolls - I have some real ones but I love pictures, postcards, I've even seen cute crochet ones! I also love Matryoshka dolls, images, stitched on, postcard... doesn't matter!

Anything Oriental - I have lots of Asian-themed things in my cottage already, a bento box, hundreds of chopsticks, pictures as well as ornaments.

Burnt Orange - I love this colour, it's my favourite. I have a gorgeous thick knit tam [hat] which I wear all the time and have so many clothes. I had an amber ring my partner bought for me but has since been lost :[

Beatrix Potter - I think she was not only an amazing woman but OH SO TALENTED!! Her illustrations never cease to amaze me. I have the 23 books, the special collection. But I love pictures or anything relating to any of the characters. Of course Peter Rabbit is a firm favourite but I also love Tom Kitten muchly muchly too!!

Kitsch, Tacky, Retro, Vintage - whatever you want to call it, I'm the one that goes to the thrift/charity store and buys the mismatched teacup or cat with a strange face... you know the one.... it's the one no-one else wants!

My Wall - I have a wall in my bedroom which is decorated with postcards, pictures, photos, little stars, newspaper cutouts, posters, business cards and various other items, all stuck together creating a mass collage on the wall. I always appreciate ANYTHING [bar XXX, I have a young daughter!] for it...

Tea - I love tea, loose tea, teabags, strange weird tea [although preferably no citrus.... I don't like lemon/lime or sharp flavours]... tea flavoured things... teacups, pictures of teacups... teapots, teapot postcards... basically if it's related to tea I'll probably love it!

Poptarts - The only flavours we can get in the UK are chocolate and strawberry with the occasional choco-mallow. I LOVE the smores..but just about any random flavour will do - I'm currently eating the Christmas Gingerbread ones my mum brought me from the States 2 months ago!!!

Cats - Since I moved and had to give up my cats I'm incredibly sad without them. I love cute little kitten pictures, cats doing funny things... cat, cats, kittens!

Candles/inscent sticks/smellies... I love yummy smelling things!! I have candles lit all the time round my bath, I love candle holders, inscent holders... anything like that!

Please Note: I don't like anything lemon or lime and I'm not fond of sharp flavours like grapefruit. I have my ears stretched (3/4" and 2ga respectively) so I cannot wear "normal" earrings. I have a slight mint allergy so while spearmint is fine any stronger mint burns my mouth!

Favorite Crafts

I knit, crochet and love scrap-booking and card-making too. I would love to be able to sew well... unfortunately I'm not blessed with such a skill!!

Favorite Movies

I love Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Alice In Wonderland, Centre Stage [for the dancing, not the acting!], Empire Records, The Holiday, Breakfast At Tiffany's, P.S. I Love You, 5th Element, Tonari No Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, Princess Mononoke... And many, many more!!

I Always Send

I only join swaps I know I can commit to. If you have not received an item and I was your partner please contact me before rating 1 or 3. If you fail to receive something from me I will always try and send a second time and will always have proof of postage to show I sent the item. Thanks!

I feel like my envie I sent to you was pretty dull considering the fabulous goodies you sent my way, so I'm working on one to send you. I'm hoping to fill your mailbox with some fantastic-ness :)
