Other then collecting crafting supplies ... my favorite crafting is junk journaling for myself and scrapbooking for my great neice and nephews. I love dyeing pages different colors, making signatures into a book and decorating each page ... like making a story on a page. I also like to make 'a day in the life' mini journals where I take small index cards, cut them in half so the are about 2 1/2 in by 3 inches make a ATC for the cover for that month -- 1 index card per day and I write down something from that day -- it can be small (like like eating choco chip cookies for lunch that day) or something big. Just as long as I write something from that day -- helps keep me present and less likely to let my days run together. I also enjoy water coloring -- started watching tutorials online and now enjoy that.

I really enjoy gardening and being outside enjoying my flowers, taking picture of the flowers, butterflies and plants. Outdoors: plants animals nature are my fave's and alot of my journaling revolves around that and nostalgia.

I love going to junk shops, antique malls looking for old ephemera that can be used (ie: old magazines, books) love all the old ad's. Life to find old postcards with great graphics - I always look for ones that have a postmark so I can see the dates --

not into glittery items, child themes, cartoons, pastels. Favorite flowers are Lilac, Iris, Daisies, Black Eyes Susan, Peonies, Day Lillies, (really kinda like all of them). I live in, somewhat, rural Kentucky so I am in love with the wild daffodils you find in the woods or along roads. I am outside everyday at some point enjoying the flowers, watching for wildlife - my husband makes bird houses so we always have many up and enjoy watchng them. Dogs are the BEST but I love all animals.

I am pretty open to any colors (except pastels and neons) like my colors a little softer (ie: greens I like sages, forest greens, etc) (blues: sky blue, denim blue, etc) ... Not into gothic, steam punk, demonic. Not into, nor do I give out anything political.

To be honest -- if you have something you want to send, but not sure based on my lists above - just do it --- if someone takes the time, has a thought or best wish for me -- it is touching and meaningful anyway -- just please not political. thank you !!!

If you do not receive items I have sent, please reach out and I will make good.
