Hi, I’m Bea. I love all kinds of craft specially knitting, crocheting and beadwork. After a long illness, my husband of 12 yrs died this past January. I’m slowly adjusting to not having him around to bounce off my ideas and show off my work to.

I also love to cook and I enjoy having family over for impromptu gatherings. I’m very fond of flavored green tea. I’m a type 2 diabetic, but don’t use artificial sugars.

I like being weird, meaning that I like having people not knowing what I’m going to do next. I have my bathroom decorated in a “Beatles – Yellow Submarine” theme with real fish hanging off on the walls, glow in the dark fish stickers on the tub walls, collector Beatle Books (whats a bathroom without reading material) and other misc. Beatles memorabilia. My husband loved the Beatles and when he died I decided to turn the bathroom into a memorial.

My living room is decorated in a mishap fashion. I pride myself in having the unusual. I’m currently looking for a taxidermy animal- my wish is to get a raccoon or armadillo, I’d even settle for a mounted head to hang up.

I enjoy sending and receiving stuff in the mail. In the past, I’ve had trouble mailing out in time because of my husband’s illness. Now I’m more organized and I’m not joining more swaps than I can handle. If for some reason there’s a problem, please let me know.

Favorite Crafts I love knitting/crocheting and needle felting. I recently started sewing.

Favorite Colors Pinks, Blues, lavenders, Purples, Skin tones, and natural colors I can use for animals.

Favorite Yarns
Not fussy on brand names, but I prefer the thinner yarns like DK, Finger weight, Baby, Lace, Sock Yarns. I love mohair and use it to make my little animals so if you really want to put a smile on my face I’d love some natural fur colors.
