About Me

I like most anything craftsy, and love when other people make crafted things for me, especially paper crafts like cards since I'm not that great at laying things out and am always impressed :) ! I like to knit and crochet the most, I'm not very good at scrapbooking (yet!) and haven't tried ATCs but I like swapping for these things!

When I do have free time I love relaxing at home, kind of a homebody. I like to read, craft, drink coffee, relax with a glass of wine, watch tv, play video games like Starcraft 2 or nintendo games. Currently obsessed with Animal Crossing New Horizons! I didn't used to like going to the gym but recently have found a fitness routine I love (barre, pilates, dance classes!) and am interested in fitness and healthy eating/living.

I also love to travel and would love to eventually travel to all continents (except Antarctica probably, lol) and as many countries as possible! I check theflightdeal.com all the time, last trip I went on was to Japan! I love traveling in Japan- the food, temples, and atmosphere are so interesting. I also love learning about other cultures and trying all the different foods.

On and off I like to extreme-coupon (using thekrazycouponlady.com/blog) and have a mini-stockpile going now :). It's pretty fun, like shopping but also getting lots of free stuff!

Favorite Crafts

knitting, crochet, cross-stitch, embroidery, origami, occasional other papercrafts (mostly memory scrapbooking)

I like to swap for:

  • used U.S. postage stamps
  • notecards, especially handmade, any size
  • stationary, postcards
  • knitting/crochet/cross-stitch patterns (or any crafty magazines/patterns)
  • cupcake liners or toppers
  • Disney items
  • cute or colorful things, especially kawaii but I'm not super picky (I like Disney, Lisa Frank, Morning Glory, but not Diddl)
  • fav chars: mamegoma, kuromi, any san-x chars, any kind of bunny, pucca, mashimaro :)
  • I love the small horizontal memos- like the 1/3 of the notepad size- to use as address labels!
  • haven't made any zines, but would love to receive some
  • yarn
  • handmade surpise! ...especially if it's a useful/functional thing (like decorated notecards to send people, a holder for...things, etc.)
  • cute decorative buttons/beads- I like to sew them onto amigurumi cupcakes (even if they're things like little animals)
  • sushi-themed crafts (i.e. a sushi plushie or charm etc. I have stitch markers already that I got on etsy ^_^)
  • recipe booklets (handmade is cool)
  • books
  • coffee

Swap with me for:

  • I make lots of knitted/crochet things- I would love to make an amigurumi or something for you, send me a message and we can swap! See my photobucket and blog or etsy store for examples of things I've made, I also can custom design your favorite animal/etc.
  • I can make swap cards, address labels, and cardstock tags
  • used postage stamps (especially international stamps)
  • korean/japanese pop music CD
  • handmade envies- variety of styles

Favorite Movies

Spirited Away, I Heart Huckabees, Howl's Moving Castle, Pirates of the Caribbean, Sin City, Shaolin Soccer, Pride and Prejudice, Marvels Avengers movies

Favorite Television

When I'm not super busy with work or other things, I do watch kinda a lot of TV, love a good story.

Past faves: Game of Thrones, Walking Dead, The Americans, The 100, IZombie, Silicon Valley, Once Upon a Time, Veronica Mars, The O.C., Hart of Dixie, Revenge s1-s2, Heroes season 1, Rome, Brotherhood, True Blood, Tudors, sex and the city, Buffy, stargate (the older sg-1 episodes and SG universe).

I love drama and (light) soap operas and watch most of the CW shows like Vampire Diaries (guilty pleasure). I also like anime- fav series: Steins;Gate, Tatami Galaxy, Eden of the East, Fruits Basket, Nodame Cantabile, Death Note, Hikaru no Go, Yakitate Japan, Ouran HSHC, Love Hina.

Coupons interested in

  • Couponing stores: RiteAid, Target, sometimes CVS
  • Pretty much anything except foundation/powder, or pet products. Especially interested in baby, bath and body, or food coupons.

Comment: Thank you so much for the book, I really appreciate the priority mailing, however if you going to continue to share books there is a less expensive way to mail them, send books by media mail, it will be half of what you paid, I am a senior citizen and could not afford to trade books if I had to pay for priority mail as you did, I love to read and send books out every week, thank you again for the lovely book, it is next on my list to read. Maybe we will get to be swappers again. Marcia
