I'm a mom, a wife, and I work with special needs preschoolers. Needless to say life is busy!!

I love almost anything mid century modern!! I like things that have a great retro vibe - but not necessarily antique.

Orange is my favorite color with green close behind.

I love to cook!!

Vintage or retro inspired kitchen towels are a favorite.

I have a thing for vintage glassware - especially cocktail glasses. I have a set of Dorthy Thorpe highballs that I absolutely love!! One can never have enough glasses!!

I love unique clothing and jewelry - things that make a statement. (I wear a S/M - size 6)

Vintage inspired necklaces are a favorite. Brooches are also great!

I love trying new recipes - I also like canning. Pretty canning jar tops and ribbons/tags are fun - I sometimes give my canning as gifts. :-)

You can find more about me and my adventures on my blog. http://thehairypeachblog.blogspot.com/

I love old time music 40's - 60's - Frank, Dean - we have a record player and I LOVE listening to our old records!

I'm also a big Country music fan - 80's - now!

I like to read when I have time. Magazines with decorating ideas are probably my favorite.

Vintage recipe books are the best!

I love to sew and have been sewing for over 25 years! I have a store on etsy (closed for restocking at the moment) where I make handbags and baby goodies out of vintage linens and hankies.

I love making skirts too!! Vintage pillowcases that I can make skirts out of are awesome!

Fun and interesting fat quarters. A lot of my sewing projects take small amounts. Love, love, love, vintage sheet fat quarters!

Unique sewing goodies.

Vintage and/or unique buttons - I love using them in crafts and sewing projects!!

Cute stickers that I can use in my preschool class.

I like crafting of all kinds - especially for the holidays! So new ideas for quick and easy crafts are great! I work at a school and need lots of little gifts to hand out at Holiday times to fellow teachers/front office staff - room parents etc...

I love Gonzo from the Muppet Show - would love almost anything with him on it! :-)

Just figured this might help - especially since I'm new.

Religious items of any kind. No Bible quotes, things with angels on them, nothing trying to convert me. To me religion is a personal thing.

No sour or spicy food or candy.

Not into scrapbooking - no supplies please.

No hair accessories.

Nothing purple - it's just not my color.

No celebrity memorabilia.

Nothing gothic, gory, gross or distasteful please - that's just plain nasty!
