I love my sweet girl, Australian Shepard, Condi! I I love and cherish my family! My life is blessed! I live in sunny Califonia! Love that I live so close to the ocean and mountains and lakes, etc.

I just wanted to post here that I do mostly group/private swaps, due to being flaked on so badly with other open swaps. I have a group, I will approve only those who are in good standing and high caliber swappers and ONLY in the USA. Here is the group name: Swap-bot Stellar Swappers.

I hope no one thinks ill of me for posting so much on me! But I was just taking ques from all the examples people left or talked about! Thanks for taking a peek!

I have very much enjoyed all the swaps...except those that I have been flaked on. One thing you will notice is that I am wonderful swapper I tend to spoil my partner! I love the new rules here now. Hopefully I will have some really fun swaps!

I really love handmade items. And have really expanded my swaps. I have some new ones I can't wait to dive into! Happy Swapping!

Highly allergic to cigarette smoke! Please be careful if you are a smoker put things in ziplock bags,to keep smoke smell out. Nothing worst than throwing out items because they are saturated with smoke smell. Thanks in advance! And I will not rate high for things that smell of smoke! SMOKERS: you must try to wrap items WAY before you send them! I throw away everything that has a hint of smoke...I do NOT kid when I say HIGHLY ALLERGIC!!!

Also, I want to say...I PREFER quality verses quanity...and that's why I have tried to stick with group swaps. I have been disappointed too many times with non-swaps. Getting cheap stuff!! I put a lot of effort into my swaps and that means GOOD STUFF. I am just looking for swaps that hopefully will bring me those type of results...SWAPS OF QUAILITY!!!

Please rate in a timely manner, when you receive a swap don't wait a week to rate, get on the computer and rate! Biggest pet peeve, waiting for ever for a rating after I sent out a wonderful swap. Show some respect! Thank for allowing me to rant a bit...lol!

Also as a side note, I do REswap things I can't use, or don't need. And try to REcycle packaging when I can.

Anyone wanting to do a private swap with me...PLEASE pm me! I would love to do more private swaps with fantastic swappers (artists). I put a lot time and effort into my swaps and would very much like to meet some swappers who do the same!

I am allergic to anything scented with vanilla...makes me very sick/headaches and nausea! But funny thing I can eat anything made with REAL vanilla bean!

Scents that I just love for candles: Any type of baked goods! Some floral. Love clean scents (linen,cotton,etc) But not vanilla! Or pine!

I am a movie BUFF! I have seen a ton of movies to my shame! I love them. They take you way on a wonderful journey. I love romantic comedys, action, thrillers, disney, almost anything EXCEPT HORROR!

Let me just say...I ADORE HANDMADE and HANDCRAFTED! I love anything altered. Handmade anything will most likely earn you hearts! I have swapped with a many talented crafters, and I want to thank you for putting such time and effort into your swaps! I can't thank you enough.

I love doing scrapbooking and photograpy. But I have done all types of crafts. I will give it a try and then master it and then move on. Weird like that but there are so many different things I want to try. That I don't want to get stuck with doing one craft. But scrapbooking is my true love!
