I am currently on swap hiatus to do a little money saving in the new year. All of my recent swaps are accounted for & everyone should have been ranked. Happy swapping swap-botters, I'll be back again someday!

I live near the beach with my boyfriend and our dog Magma (an English/Italian mastiff). I am usually crafting while he is playing video games or wii.

I have always loved doing crafty things. I love to make jewelry, embellish picture frames, create whimsy jars, sew (although I don't currently have my sewing machine), cross stitch, I have tried scrapbooking but tend to get bored with it, and any holiday related craft.

Holidays are my favorite times of the year. Christmas especially. I love giving gifts and usually try to have them be at least semi-homemade if not homemade. They usually involve some sort of gift basket.

I have 2 collections: Snails & Shot Glasses (I pick one up every time I go somewhere new!)

Please visit my blog & Flickr sites I would love to get comments! If for some reason you haven't received a swap from me please PM me. I promise not to join any swap that I cannot knowingly fulfill.

I tend to go in phases with music, right now I am enjoying country, but if its got a good beat and good lyrics i usually enjoy it. I tend to listen to lyrics more than the actual music. I absolutely love big band music and the Rat Pack and Judy Garland.

I'm not a huge fan of reading to tell the truth. I enjoy the Christian Fiction of Frank Peretti and I just picked up a Kathy Reichs book. She writes the books that started the TV series Bones.

Lots of stupid humor. Super Troopers, Beer Fest, Accepted, Idiocracy, Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy, etc. etc. etc.

A good chick flick is necessary every once in a while too!

Bones, House, dumb Reality Shows.

Jewelry, Christmas Ornaments, Personalizing Picture Frames. And I'll try anything once.

*Candies (not that I don't love them, but I'm trying to stay away from them!) & most other food (unless it is a food themed swap that I join) mainly because I am paranoid about eating things that come from the mail!

*If you have sent me any of this before I updated this list, thats OK, I will probably just use them to swap with someone else which is perfectly fine with me!
