SignsFromAbove

Well, to give a little information about myself. I spend a lot of time going between Nevada and Washington state for work and to help a sister who was in an accident with her children. I dont have any kids of my own, but, my nieces and nephew mean the world to me (ages, 1, 2, 2, 4, and my nephew is 8). I have two little fur-babies Ally and Tony (Both Chihuahua's) that I just love to death and they are spoiled as can be (But social and not neurotic like most chihuahuas,lol). I also raise Holland Lop Rabbits with my oldest neice/nephew to help them with 4H. We currently have 4 bunnies and one just had two babies!

I am currently not married and I dont really have a 'boyfriend' other than just a couple of "Boy-Friends". I am a happy, 30 year old self declared spinster and I dont mind it one bit :)

I would classify my music taste as eclectic. I love everything! Not too much into the whole rap/R&B/top 40 pop type stuff, but, in small doses it is okay.

Kings of Leon, Type O Negative, Godsmack, Staind, Enigma, Peter Gabriel, Meatloaf, Michael Buble, Foo Fighters, HIM, Enya, Orgy, The Killers, etc.

My favorite books include anything from Christopher Moore (The Stupidest Angel is my FAVORITE), I loved the Harry Potter series, The Circle Trilogy from Nora Roberts, and, as much as I hate to admit it... I LOVE the Twilight Books (Go Team Jacob! LOL)

I am a pretty hardcore movie junky. I would prefer to watch movies to television shows any day. I LOVE scary movies. I am a vampire movie junkie. Especially all those cheesy 80's vampire flicks (Fright Night, etc). I really enjoy anything by Tim Burton (Love Sweeney Todd!), Bram Stokers Dracula and I love to watch romantic comedies when I am in the mood.

Well, I dont watch much actual television except the news in the morning and when I can catch it, Law & Order: SVU. I also like Ghost Adventures (Kind of my guilty pleasure).

Well, I have my own little business where I paint wood signs, and I really enjoy doing that. I also enjoy sewing. I love little stuffed animals and have been giving my hand at that lately. I love working with wool felt. I enjoy papercrafting when time (and space) allows. I really enjoy altered items, I think they are fabulous, I personally dont think I am very good at them, but, I try :) I have recently started making jewelry and I am having a good time with that. I also have just learned to crochet.

Well, I guess this is the part where I put my likes and dislikes:

Likes:

Notepads and pens

BATS!!! I love bats!

Fabric (especially cool and retro prints, fleece, and wool felt)

thread & Embroidery floss

sewing stuff (I collect needlebooks and pincushions)

crochet items (hooks and fun, chunky yarn or really pretty colored yarns),

goddess/wiccan stuff & tarot cards

handmade stuffies

shrines (matchbox, bottlecap, cigar box, etc.),

handmade totes/purses

cool handmade jewelry, scarves, mittens/gloves,

Twilight stuff ( I prefer Jacob, but my niece is a Team Edward gal, and most of the Twilight stuff ends up going to her anyway ;) )

hedgehogs, squirrels & owls

Fairies (More grown up style fairies, not the whole Disney/Cutsie type fairies)

Vampire Anything!

Dislikes: Before I get to into this, please dont think that I am down on any of these items, they just arent things that I can use.

I am not really into the whole kawaii stuff. Very cute, but, not my thing (Exception: Hedgehog stuff is alright).

Christian religious items. I have my own beliefs that make me very happy and fulfill my spiritual needs, so these type of items wont do me much good. No offense and I definately dont look down upon people who belive in this, I would just hate to have someone waste the shipping cost sending this to me :)

Dottee Dolls

I am really interested in doing private swaps with people. I have a lot of great vintage fabric, custom wood signs, and more that I can offer up. My flickr account will have photos of things that I currently have available. I can also do custom work if anyone is interested.

I have a list of likes/dislikes above, but here are a few "Wish" items that I would like to receive, set up private swaps for, etc.

1. Anything from my Etsy Fave list.
2. Mixed CD's (see music types/ideas above) 3.An Altar Cloth
3. A crochet/knitters tote bag for yarn/hook storage
4. Jewelry-making supplies (findings, unique charms, chain, etc. I dont really need any beads though)
5. Wiccan/Pagan items. Contact me for more information if this is something that you want to swap for and I will give you more details of what I am looking for.
6. A cool Messenger bag, handmade would be fabulous, Store bought would be fabulous as well!
7. I am looking for leather and rawhide, bigger pieces and scraps, any types/colors
8. Leatherworking tools (stamps, carving tools, etc.)

JUST SO EVERYONE IS AWARE, I AM CURRENTLY IN WASHINGTON ON AN EXTENDED STAY HELPING MY SISTER WITH HER CHILDREN WHILE SHE IS UNDERGOING A FEW SEPERATE SURGERIES. ALL MY MAIL IS STILL GOING TO MY NEVADA ADDRESS AND MY MOTHER IS MAKING ME AWARE WHEN PACKAGES ARE RECIEVED SO THAT I CAN RATE IN A TIMELY MANNER. I JUST WANTED TO LET PEOPLE KNOW THIS SINCE ALL OF MY PACKAGES ARE POSTMARKED FROM WA AT THIS TIME. IF I END UP BEING HERE FOR MORE THAN THE PLANNED AMOUNT OF TIME, I WILL BE GETTING A PO BOX HERE IN WA :)
