Hi, I'm a mother of 4 from Western Nebraska. My children are 20, 18, 12, and 5. My oldest is a junior in college studying music education. He is a very artist person. My 16 year old is a freshman at college doing general studies. She is very much a free spirit. Then I still have two at home. My 12 year old is in the 6th grade, and is a girly girl. She loves to sing, likes to make bracelets and necklaces, and loves dance class. We just had a spa party for her birthday that was incredible. It has all neon colors (her favorite) and we even had a chocolate fountain. My 5 year old is my princess. She is a very smart loving little girl. She loves anything to do with being a princess, fairies, dance class, girl scouts, and learning to read.

I'm an in home daycare provider and miss getting out of the house. I used to teach preschool and decided to stay home with my daughter for her last year before kindergarden and now she goes to school. I like to do lots of projects with my daycare kids and try to run it alot like being at preschool.
I'm looking to meet some new friends and thought this sounds like alot of fun.

I love the victorian and medieval time periods. I like Ellen Clapsaddle images, art by Monet, and anything frilly and feminine. I collected blue and white dishes, teacups and teapots (any color) and stuffed bears. I enjoy the fragrances of ocean, cinnamon, lavender, and fresh rain. I enjoy baking especially making decorated cupcakes and cookies. I also do some cake decorating and would like to try make some fun cupcake wrappers . I am wanting to learn more techniques in paper crafting.

My favorite colors are blue (any shade) pink, and purple. I really do not care much for orange except for at Halloween. I wear alot of black, blue, and pink. Depending on my mood.

I like both gold and silver jewerly. I would really like to get into jewelry making. I like pins, bracelets, and necklaces, I LOVE funky socks. We always look for crazy socks wherever we go. My fiance' travels and likes to bring back crazy ones from wherever he has been on business.

I'm trying to start a children's party planning business. I love to plan parties and have found a way to combine my different passions. I love to create different crafts and have had fun making things for my new business. I look forward to making new friends here.

I really do not like the fragrances of vanilla, musk, or anything really heavy. I am not much of a sports person. I prefer classic vintage looks to more modern looks in everything, decor, accessories, jewelry, you name it.

I like milk chocolate and dark chocolate, I like mint, caramel, and nuts. I really do not like chocolate covered cheeries, licorice, and taffy.

I will work to make my swaps really fun for the recipient. I think this is a wonderful idea and look forward to having a great time creating.
