About Me

Hi, I'm Kendra! I live in Northern California in a very small town west of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. I enjoy the small-town life and am thankful to be able to look out my window and see nature and wildlife everyday. I also live with my partner of 8 years, Kevin, and our nearly 1 year old son, who is my favorite hobby. Besides spending time with my family, I also work as a dental assistant and I am going to school full time to finish by degree in social work. Because time is limited and life is busy, I try to incorporate small acts of creativity into my days. I really enjoy snail mail for that reason, it is a really fun creative outlet that doesn't take a lot of time out of the day. Besides snail mail, I love drawing, painting, collage, art journaling, glue books, and really just learning new crafts and techniques! I really enjoy receiving mail from people who put a lot of effort into their swaps, I love hand-lettering, stickers, washi tape, happy quotes, and cool postage on my mail.

I don't really like...

Some of the things I don't like (in no specific order): *Medieval/fantasy style (dragons, wizards, etc.) *Religious items *Teacher stickers *Disney or any cartoony things *Glitter

Comment: Hi Kendra! Thanks for the coloring page postcard- I haven't tried coloring yet. Any recommendations for what kind of fine tip pen to use? BTW that sunflower Washi tape is my absolute favorite-i bought several rolls of it. It looks ugly on the roll but great on anything white. Happy Easter weekend!
