Please Note

Please remember to put a note with the swap name (wish or RAK) and your swap bot name in anything you send me. I will always rate (or comment) when I receive.

Please contact me if you haven't received anything from me. I will not chase you for a rating.

If you receive a swap from me and there is postage due please let me know.

If I haven't received a swap from you I will contact you but I will not nag you.

I mark sent on swaps when I drop it off at the window, put it in the mail slot, or drop it in a blue postal box. So this means if they postmark it at the facility that is hours away from here, the date will not match the date I sent it.

Side Note

Please DON'T Send..

  • Makeup (I don't wear it)

  • Nail Polish or nail stickers (I don't wear it)

  • Chocolate (I don't eat it) or anything that smells like chocolate

  • Raspberry scent and flavor is another I don't care for.

  • loose glitter or glitter not embedded in

  • I prefer non-religious

  • I reuse most of what I can from envelopes and packages

Favorite Crafts

The crafts I like to do are:

  • ATCs

  • Mini Pocket Letters

  • Envelopes

  • Simple hand sewn felt items

  • I like to use my ink stamps (I have several) on some of my papercrafts and envelopes

Likes

  • I enjoy coffee (non-flavored) and tea (not a fan of oolong, rooibos, or fruity--though lemon is okay). Tea favorites- licorice, ginger,

  • I like stickers (to use in projects and on envelopes), washi tape and washi stickers (non-kiddish).

  • When crafting I like using double sided tape, glue sticks (have plenty right now), and craft glue (I currently use Elmer's Craft Bond). The ink pads I like using are from Recollections.

  • I have a collection of ATCs others have made and like to display on the two easels in my desk area.

  • I enjoy making ATCs so I can use blanks, backgrounds, and ephemera to create.

  • Unused postcards- I like to send to others and have a collection of sorts.

  • Notecards- I like to make my own sometimes but can always use new ones (with or without envelopes).

  • Envelopes- I enjoy making my own with cardstock and calendar pages. I don't mind if some are sent my way to use.

  • Magnets- I have a little collection displayed above my desk.

  • Keychains- I like to have a different one on my keyring every so often.

  • Papercrafts- I enjoy trying different crafts and seeing other people's creations.

  • Bath/Body/Scents- I take showers only though I may soak my feet. Travel size lotion is great. Soap- travel size, handmade, and fun shaped is great. Scents I like include- apple, lilac, coconut, lavender,patcholi, cashmere, sandalwood,

  • Other handmade items- I cannot crochet or knit so I enjoy seeing what others can make. Above my desk I have a bulletin board my husband made me- on this I have items displayed that others have made (keychains, catchers, etc.)

Amazon, Etsy, Other

I do not shop Amazon. I have taken a look and made a list for who are looking to send me something that do shop there. (This list may change once in awhile).

  • Amazon-handmade soap- By Randalia Bee Hives (patcholi, cashmere). By Three Sisters Apothecary (ylang ylang and cedar). Glue pens.

  • Etsy- Leather cable organizer by Leatherofleather. Travel Turtle Clip on Charm by The Little Items.

  • Other- (Items that could be from Etsy or your local crafter or you). -Sewn or crocheted lip balm holder. A crocheted top hanging hand towel. Pot holder topped hand towel.

*Most of the time when I shop for crafting items I will shop Michaels online. There is a Hobby Lobby in a city near me.
