About Me

Hello! I'm Rose, 22 and I love love love searching through my local Flea market! I've just graduated from an Illustration degree and now spending my days working on my personal illustrations and hopefully trying to sell my work/flea market finds on my online shops!

Favorite Music

Mainly indie/electro stuff :) Metronomy/The Strokes - Albert Hammond/Belle and Sebastian/Bombay Bicycle Club/Death Cab For Cutie/Envelopes/Foals/Friendly Fires/Grandaddy/Hot Hot Heat/Jeffery Lewis/Kate Bush/Kimya Dawson/Shout Out Louds/ The Go Team/The Kinks/The Libertines/The Smiths/The White Stripes/Vampire Weekend/Yeasayer/Justice

Favorite Books

I love Nick Hornby's books - Yes Man by Danny Wallace - Life of Pi - Are You Dave Gorman? - Exodus by Julie Bertagna - Northern Lights books, Memoirs of a Geisha is the most recent book I've read, I couldn't put it down!

Favorite Movies

Juno/Labrynth/Ghost World/The Fall/Amelie/The Little Mermaid/Pocohantas/all Studio Ghibli films/Persepolis/Whale Rider/Shawn of the Dead/Monty Python/Memoirs of a Gaisha/Where the wild things are

Favorite Crafts

I love to draw mainly with traditional materials - pencil/pen/inky/coloured pencils/acrylic/gouache/watercolour paints :) I love collecting things from the flea market and painting straight onto them. I also enjoy drawing on photoshop with my tablet, making my own cards and promotional work. I'd love to make badges and my own stamps but not sure how to go about this. I'm not very good with sewing/crochet/knitting, I've tried and failed!

check out my blog, if may give you more of an idea of things I like: www.rosehudson.blogspot.com

Wishlist

I would love colourful and fun looking buttons - ribbon - fabric scraps - polka dots- gingham - hearts (I love wooden hearts).

I'm a big big fan of Laura Ashley/ Cath Kidston type things. I know these are expensive but anything similar would be amazing! I also can't get enough of the shabby chic/distressed style!

Things from a flea market/home/second hand shop such as; Vintage photographs (mainly earlier then 1950's) - vintage pages from old books (especially ones with illustrations or diagrams) - vintage children's illustrated books - vintage cards/postcards/letters - vintage handwriting

Sweets from abroad (not loose please) If you get me ANYTHING with cinnamon I would give you a million hearts (if it was possible). There's not much cinnamon here where I live and I'm absolutely besotted with the taste!

I love handmade things - broaches/badges - promotional material - artist zines

Oh and I love parachute soldier toys and cute hair clips! And I'm besotted with moomin merchandise :).

Hates

  • Please don't send me recipes - I can't cook (and wont cook!)

  • Please please please no religious things :)

  • No nuts... apart from cinnamon flavored pecan nuts :)

  • I'm not a fan of glitter at all!

  • Even though I love disney films, I don't like disney memorabilia, or anythig similar like tweety bird, Pucca, Pooh, Carebears..big name sort of things

  • Beauty products

  • Stickers

Comment: Oh man, I haven't listened to your CD yet but I'm soooooooooo excited. Whenever I meet anyone who is into Fuck Buttons my day shines more brightly! There were lots of other people I was excited about, but I forget at the moment and I've taken the CD to work so I can code with it on. One thing that was especially awesome: the candy you sent must have felt like a broken something, because my post service wrapped the bag in plastic and attached this big apology for sending me "a package that they received from the letter stream containing broken items." I guess it's kind of mean to derive pleasure from this, but your package instilled a little bit of chaos into day-to-day life and that makes me happy :)
Response: Hahahaa!! Oh wow, I tricked the postal service *evil laugh* bwuhahahaha! I checked out your profile again when i sent the package and noticed you had Fuck Buttons in your music interests - wooo! They rule. Anyway I hope you enjoy it when you have time to listen :) thanks for the rating!
