JANUARY 15th PSA: I am in the 3rd trimester of my pregnancy and having a rough one! We are also in the middle of a move. I will not be participating in swaps at this time and will be prioritizing my health right now! I understand I have a few swaps to catch up on, and will do so when I am able. Thank you for understanding and rest assured I WILL resend when I am able!

I’m an artist and mom of 3 (2, I’m pregnant with our 3rd)! I enjoy plants, fantasy (fairies, mushrooms, etc), nature and mail! I am a full time college student majoring in software engineering. I’m super excited about that. I consider myself to be a shopaholic. Sad for my bank account but good for your happy mail! I am an artist and sell my art! I love sending black and white postcards but I send a lot of colored too! I enjoy making ATCs, zines, mail art and art in general! I LOVE painting on unconventional canvas as well!

I am neurodivergent, and a mental health advocate!

I love houseplants, my favorite is my fittonia collection. They are so dramatic and I love that about them.

I am pretty introverted. I have a few friends but stay in (or go out with my kiddos and husband) for the most part!

I am new to swap bot but not new to swapping! I am so excited I found this website because WOW it’s awesome!

If you are a stickler about postmarking, please know that I mark items sent when I put them in the mailbox! I have kiddos, so going to the post office daily isn't realistic! If I put it out after mail comes, or on a Sunday, it is picked up the next day!

If you EVER get something from me that needs more postage PLEASE message me or email me before rating down and I will make it right! Whether you want me to send the difference or make up for it with happy mail I promise to make it right! It hasn’t happened yet, but because I mail from my mailbox primarily, it’s harder to tell if a letter is going to end up non machinable, as they are getting pickier and pickier these days. I will ALWAYS fix it! I work super hard to make sure my swaps are great and the majority of my things are handmade or hand designed, so I would have for short postage to ruin the fun for someone!

I recycle old flyers, newspapers, junk ads, old printed stuff I don’t need, etc into envelopes!! I will ALWAYS mark it as not an ad so it won’t be easy to miss!

So excited to hear from you!

My favorite music is 2000s anything. Let’s be real, the 2000s-2010s were amazing for music. I am also a diehard 1D fan!
