Please message me prior to rating if you have not received my swap in a reasonable amount of time. If I have marked sent; it means the postal system got it on that day. If you choose to not rate swaps, please, as a courtesy, message me that my swap has been received. Thanks!
ââ¬Â¢Wife, mother of 2 fabulous grown daughters, and a grand to 2 sweet boys.
ââ¬Â¢Teacher, college proposal writer and a crafter for as long as I can remember.
ââ¬Â¢Avid volunteer for Red Cross Disaster Services with several completed deployments.
ââ¬Â¢Master Gardener (...I'm a Taurus, love dirt)
ââ¬Â¢Postcrosser (how I love receiving cards from around the world...handmades always welcome as well as map cards, recipe cards, architecture, state caps, scenic, national flags and dress, fun, etc.!)
ââ¬Â¢Traveler (I've been to 17 countries and always keep my 'go bag' packed and ready)
ââ¬Â¢Vermicomposter
ââ¬Â¢ Traditionalist, my kids say old fashioned, but what do they know!!
Likes: Handmade cards! Woodworking (I love my scrollsaw!), furniture re-finishing or painting, collage, decoupage, sewing...& shame on me as I've yet to make a dotee...but I want one, cross stitch, embroidery, decorative painting, screen art, papier mache', nature crafts. And love that "how'd they do that" feeling I get from something new to me. Especially love receiving and learning from your ATC's. Flat out crazy about mixed media and mail art!
Colors: Love all earth colors in shades of green, blue, and brown. Also love deep jewel tones in greens, burgundies, purple and gold.
Don't need: Any more items crocheted or knitted! (those in my family have kept me very well supplied for all seasons & holidays). LOL!
Classic Rock and I'm something of a blues and jazz fan, too.
Not so crazy about going to movies but Netflix and on demand are good buddies. Sleepless in Seattle, Steel Magnolias and the classic Gone with the Wind are some favorites. Yeah, I love a good chick flick! LOL!
Historical novels both US and European, fiction or non-fiction. How-to Manuals for veggie gardening, landscaping, furniture construction, upholstery, even car repair! Any craft book or magazine I can find!
Not so much! But I do enjoy watching Amazing Race, CSI, and Good Eats. I also enjoy some things on Discovery, Nat Geo, and the History channels. But, I'd rather read or craft!
Please no food or beverage! I am very strict on myself nutritionally, but there was a time that I'd walk 50 miles for a 3 Musketeers bar!!
Bits & Pieces: Fibers, colored twine, glass beads, sea glass, ribbons of silk, velvet, satin or grosgrain, large tassels, nature inspired note cards, maps, city, scenic, art, funny or handmade postcards, yellowed, stamped vintage pages, pics of great architecture, mixed media, ATC's, stamped images, dolphins and tigers! I'm really easy to please...
To follow through on every swap I enter and to communicate with my partners and the swap coordinator should life matters interfere. Further, I will rate promptly and fairly and be as liberal in my ratings as the swap item merits. What I wish to receive is a quality item to which you have obviously given time, thought, and effort. Thank you for reading my profile!

Thanks SOOO much for taking the time to read my craft display dilemma thread and for responding with such a BRILLIANT idea!!! I adjusted it for what I need to do, and think it will work great. I would have never been able to think of this on my own, so I truly appreciate it!!! ââ¢Â¥Ã¢â¢Â¥Ã¢â¢Â¥
