About Me

Dear Swap-Bot Pal,

How are you? I am fine. ^_^

I remember joining mailing clubs or sending away for free information as a little girl. I would get so excited when a package came in the mail just for me and filled with treats.

I do have friends and family that send goodies, but this is so fun! Random strangers from around the world will send me goodies? And I get to show off and send them goodies? Fab-u-lous!

Hope to send you fun goodies soon!

Your New Friend, Nicole

Full-time Momma of 2! 2nd Grade Teacher Part-time Crafter Daisy Troop Leader

*w i s h*

(((^_^))) I love stickers, magazines (fashion, design, craft) prints, fabric, funny books, children's illustrations, Hawaiian things, English things, chocolate, Hello Kitty, t-shirts, fuzzy socks, yellow, orange, stripes, tea, did I mention chocolate?, good typography, silly things and generally anything that will make you smile...

Favorite Crafts

{{{•_•}}} I love to sew, embroider, make yo-yo's, zines, and occasionally paint.

Favorite Music

MGMT Florence and the Machine Just got the new Vampire Weekend and I love it! The Killers, The Bravery, Phoenix, The Virgins, The Ting-Tings, the Strokes, Adele, Estelle, Tweet, Outcast, Ella Fitzgerald, Etta James, The Beatles, Steely Dan, White Stripes...you know...the usual ^_^.

Favorite Books

I love reading children's books, mostly because I am a teacher and because they are really hopeful and fun. Just read the Blue Balliet Trilogy and think they are so fun! (Chasing Vermeer, The Wright 3, and The Calder Game)

Adult books: I like the funny ones There's a (Slight) Chance I Might Be Going to Hell: A Novel of Sewer Pipes, Pageant Queens, and Big Trouble by Laurie Notaro and authors David and Amy Sedaris.

Favorite Movies

Avatar ROXXX!

Sherlock Holmes is so great! I have read the books, but I love how it was made into an action adventure film.

I can watch musicals all day.

Wes Anderson, Quentin Tarintino, Steve Carrell, Jude Law, Harry Potter, Star Wars, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Tim Burton, Michael Cera, and Amelie rocks.

Favorite Television

Glee, 30 Rock, SNL, Community, Project Runway, So You Think You Can Dance, The Office, Gavin and Stacy, How I Met Your Mother, and Big Bang Theory.

Things my girl would love...

I have a little angel girl named Skye who loves My Little Pony, "Animals" In My Pocket, shiny stickers, fairies, princesses, horses, and most other animals, shimmery pink, headbands, colorful socks, lip gloss, books, crafting (cut, paste, and glitter), mermaids, themed band-aides, chocolate, and gummies.

She is in kindergarten and would love a pen pal!

My boy...

I also have a 13 year young man ^_^. He wants to start swapping. Let me know if you have a similar buddy for him to write to. He loves chocolate, Miami Dolphins, Miami Hurricanes, and Top Gear.

Comment: Honey Alert!!! Beware sending honey in an ordinary envelope. Your mailing arrived last month dripping with honey. Oh my, it was a mess. Probably the cruel USPS machines squashed the little packet of honey that you had enclosed. It got honey all over your cute card and the tea bags. Even today, one month later everything remains sticky.
Response: Holy cow! I am so sorry! Note to self: do not send condiments. Thank you for the 5. Look out for a non-sticky pack soon...^_^

Hi! I got your two zines and they are so cute!

OpheliaQuilts on Jan 25, 2010:

We have quite a bit in common! I love Tim Burton's films, English things, tea, fuzzy socks,and the Sherlock Holmes movie.

If you love Tim Burton then surely you must have some bit of love in your heart for Neil Gaiman? :)
