GlitterOnFire

Oh, hello :)

My name is Marissa, and I'm a 22 year old hairstylist/makeup artist. I am the pink glitter queen! I'm a really hyper person usually, and I love the color pink, bows, singing, Mamegoma, and Hello Kitty.

I live in the greatest city in the US...Minneapolis, Minnesota! There's always something going on here, and so much art to see and so much live music to hear! The Mississippi River flows right through it, and the skyline at night is just BEAUTIFUL! I wouldn't trade it here for anything...except maybe a year without a snowy winter, haha.

I love baby seals more than most people. Meaning I love baby seals more than most people love them, but also I love them more than I love most people. I have no idea why, but I just love seals!

I am in LOVE Ryan Gosling. I love him past the point of obsession. If anyone wants to mail him to me, I'd be foreverandever in your debt (but I also accept magazine clippings and picture of him too.)

Some random interests of mine are tattoos/piercings, Mamegoma, learning langauges, Brazil, my iPhone, hair and makeup, Portugal, anything kawaii, Pikachu, loud music, Hello Kitty, dance, anything with glitter/sequins, mermaids, designing clothes and accessories, and meeting new people :D

Matt and I have been together for about a year now, and have lived together since November '11. Yes, that seems fast, but things just made too much sense...sometimes you just know :)

He is an extremely talented graphic designer, doing mainly apparel design, but also does a lot of freelance work in basically every kind of design you can imagine! Check out his website :) mattborchert.com

I love to collect and swap stickers! The more kawaii, the better, but I will happily take most anything :) Mamegoma, Sanrio and San-X are my favorites ;)

I'm seeking out bottles of clear nail polish, and loose glitter/pigment. I've recently started making my own nail polishes, so i'm happy to receive donations ;)

I'm also really into repurposing/designing clothes. I'd really like to receive old, quirky sweatshirts and tshirts as I love turning them into something new. If you have any old clothes you'd like to send to me, I'd love to credit you in some of my creations!!

I collect keychains/keyrings from vacations I didn't go on/places I've never been. I'd love a keychain or keyring from you!

Making bows is part of my life...well bows in general are just part of my life :) I'd love to receive fabric scraps to make new bows, or if you'd like to make a bow to send to me, I'd be extremely grateful as well!

If you send me ANYTHING with having to do with seals, I will love you forever

I work as a hairstylist and makeup artist, and have access to maaaaany brands of hair products, makeup, and nail polishes. If you send me anything from my crafting wish list, I'd be more than happy to make you a little beauty care package, or PM me to set up a one-on-one swap!
