Greetings from North Dakota! :D I'm so terrible at filling out these profiles -never really know what people really want to know, so please -feel free to ask questions!
Now let's see...about me...well..I ♡ Mail! Ha . One of my favorite parts of the day is when I walk my little dog down the street to my mailbox and find all sorts of goodies inside -Yay!
I studied Architecture & Art in college, and was obsessed with all things music -so I truly appreciate anything artistc!
*recently went back to school to study trees and discovered that tree climbing is a thing! I love evergreens, especially conifers, and adore Natural Science. ☆ I am a Minnesota Master Naturalist 😎🔎🌲🪻🌾🦋🍁🐿🕊🌻🍀🌿
I do a little painting (mostly rosemaling and watercolors), enjoy jazz music, love to bake (and eat baked goods) and collect vintage recipe books, especially holiday themed.
I enjoy exploring in nature, being crafty, scrapbooking with Real Scraps (I guess people call it 'junk journaling'/'smaskbooking' now), callages, photography (mostly of flowers/nature/pastries/architecture/travel), stamping, ink, glitter, I like Calligraphy, beautiful Old Victorian homes, Vintage/Shabby Chic/Antique/Repurposed/Flea Market/Thrift Shop finds. I love old books (especially with beautiful covers) -old Poetry books are the best!
Polar bears, Penguins, and Snow ❄️ ❄️ ❄️
I Love Nature and I Love to Travel! I ♡ woodland creatures (Squirrels, Owls, and Foxes are my favorite... raccoons and bears are cute, too). I have a small garden -flowers (I like roses and Adore Wildflowers! ), herbs and veggies (tomatoes -yum!).
I'm a Stationary Addict! Ha ha, I can't get enough! I love totes, vintage pattern fabrics, lovely yarns (alpaca, wool, etc.). Rhinestones * Cathedrals * I really enjoy teal/aqua/turquoise blues, mauve/dusty rose pinks, plum/aubergine purples. I adore color (even though I seem to wear a lot of black, hee hee).
Goodness, lol ....I like a lot of things, it seems. Ha ha
Well...I'm looking to have fun with this and I hope you do, too. Please be creative! Get inspired! I want to make connections, so please feel free to contact me. I've done several swaps via facebook in the past, and they've been such great experiences. I look forward to this - can't wait! Take Care!
☆…☆…☆…A Few, Somewhat Specific, Suggestions ☆…☆…☆…
☆Coins☆ I love coins from around the world! I have a soft spot for old, Antique /Vintage coins, especially with beautiful images (like animals, scrolls, crowns, flowers, etc.) But I like new coins, too -it could even be just the change you got back from a purchase you made earlier that day or just a penny taped to a greeting card -it all puts a huge smile on my face :D
☆Postcards☆ (and other greeting cards) ~Squirrels! ~Vintage!!! (Victorian holiday images, for example) ~Antique/Antique Replicas ~Swallows ~Owls ~Foxes ~Mushrooms ~Roses ~Clovers & Shamrocks ~Snow ~Jetoy (I used to have a white cat with one yellow and one blue eye...gorgeous creature, so I'd love to get some lovely Jetoy cards ♡)
☆…Almost Anything with Shiny Foil / Sparkly Glitter

Please send Organic/Natural Flavor Teas Green teas are also welcome) ~Kitchen/Tea Towels (yes, yes, yes!) lol ~Fancy spoons or Honey Wands, sugar cubes or crystals ~I like all natural teas/tisanes especially for wellness

☆…Please Use Stamps ☆… I know that sometimes the post-person will get that barcode sticker on there so fast you may not have the chance to request stamps (this has happened to me before), but stamps really do make a letter/parcel/package SO much nicer. Plus, I ♡ 'em!
☆…☆…Please -whatever you do, be thoughtful!
I do this for the joy of sending -I do my very best to make/send things people will like. A lot of effort and thought goes into my outgoing mail. It would put a smile on my face if you attempt the same. :D
I want people to feel inspired and find joy in these swaps. Afterall, isn't that what this is all about?
Please DO NOT SEND Brazil Nuts! -Deathly Allergic!!!
I don't care much for super childish things -I do not have any children, only a small pomeranian dog, ha ha. This doesn't mean I don't enjoy cute things from time to time -I do. ...if you truly think I may like something, I always keep an open mind.
Thank You, in advance, for being Considerate -♡
