I am a Professional Reborn Doll artist. I paint dolls to make them look extremely realistic like a real baby. I run my own business so I work from home in my studio. I have clients from all over the world which I love. I have been married to my husband for 25 years. We were lucky enough to have been blessed with 6 wonderful children, all grown up now. I have done craft swaps locally for years and love it so much. I have a 4 year old very spoiled small breed boy dog who spends 24/7 either on my lap or by my side. My favorite holidays are 🎃 & 🎄 . I will rate my partners immediately after opening a swap. I am hoping that my partners that I send to will do the same for me 💕 I would love to meet friends here that love quality swaps and making new friends as much as I do ❤️
Below is just a list of my favorite crafts. Please note that I do not expect any of my partners to send anything special. I am extremely easy to please. I am always looking for something new to love! If you know of a craft you think I may enjoy, please let me know 🥰

My little male dogs favorites are toys. He loves the soft, plushie fuzzy toys that have the hidden squeaker inside. If the toy also happens to have the Krinkle sound? He thinks that is a HUGE bonus, lol. He gets so excited when he gets a brand new one to play with. When he brings me the toy to play, he makes sure that the squeaker part of it is in his mouth so that he is the only one that can squirrel his toy 😂

HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT ONE!
Hello Lea!
Greetings from central California! My neighbor loves Halloween too and has been busily decorating her front lawn this week--so far she's got maybe a dozen fake tombstones sprinkled about, but soon will add a number of large inflatables that always delight the neighborhood kiddos (and the young-at-heart) when they pass by on their daily walks. I believe there is also an animated coffin and sound effects to complete the scene :)
I hope you are able to enjoy some autumn weather and are staying safe this storm season.

Hello from the UK 👋 I spy a fellow dog owner 😊 I’ve got two cockapoo’s; they’re brothers and just over a year old, called Ollie and Archie. They’re my happy companions on long walks through the countryside. They’re constantly having to have their feet washed though because oh boy do they love getting muddy paws! Hope you’re having a great day. Take care, Donna. 😊🌸
