About Me

Hi!

I am a 51yr old mom of two boys and I have been married 28 years now to a wonderful man who puts up with my crafting. Both of my sons are autistic (ASD).

I love butterflies and woodland animals such as foxes and deer. I look forward to going to Disneyland in the future.

My family and I do celebrate secular holidays.

Please message me if a swap is late or gone missing. Depending on when the USPS picks up the mail, it may be postmarked the day after I SENT it. This should not cause a problem as I send my mail off days before the send by date.

Favorite Crafts

I am back to making books! I have a lot of fun making journals, magpie books and deco books.

Mostly I have been diamond painting and bead embroidery.

This is a picture of diamond painting using a light pad. It can help quite a bit for those that have difficulty seeing.

I tend to do diamond painting with special rhinestones. I just enjoy all the colors. Similar to what you see below. You can see more on my IG link at the top of my profile.

Favorite Music, TV & Books

I prefer listening to YouTube the most. I will have it on in the background while crafting. I do watch some shows on Netflix but it is on rare occasion. I have been watching DARK and Lucifer as of late.

I have actually never had a favorite book. I used to read lots of books as a teen. As I became older, I just had worse and worse reading comprehension. I read passages over and over and nothing stuck. I found it very frustrating. It took me a while but I found out it is from a symptom of fibromyalgia called fibrofog.

Small Things I Enjoy

I love stickers, except puffy. I subscribed to Stickii and would by all the packs. They are awesome stickers that are non kiddie, non alpha, great for planners. I highly recommend them. Check them out at this Stickii Link

I do enjoy stamped images that I can color in and add to my journals.

I do like Kawaii stationery but I am not picky about it. So if you are in a Kawaii swap that is particular don't worry about what you send to me. I am okay with receiving Diaso, American Kawaii, and cheap Sanrio.

Disney characters, especially Minnie and Mickey. Oh and Stitch.

Postcards - No preferences.

RAK

Had a bad day, week, month? Running low on note cards, stationery but want to keep swapping? Message me if you would like a RAK (Random Act of Kindness) and I will see what can be done.

Babaswork

No Thank you, please

Please as a side note, I do not wish to receive anything religious. I am not religious but respect all religions and the people who practice them.

Sadly, candy treats I cannot have. I am on a special diet from my physician.

Please no clothing or house hold items.

I really don't care for glitter.
Please Note: A tiny amount well stuck to the paper such as on a card or sticker is fine.

I don't care for confetti or sequins.

I personally don't use temporary tattoos so they just get passed along.

I personally don't use puffy stickers as they are don't match my aesthetic for journals and so I just pass them along.

I personally don't use classroom reward stickers but I do pass them along to a few teachers that love them.

Comment: Love the Grumpy Cat stickers <3 RIP lil Grumpy :( TY for the lovely letter, neurodivergent buddy! Opening up about my diagnosis is something I'm trying to do, and help others like me who are late diagnosed ^^ I really appreciate you sharing more about that, you're not alone <3 "After" COVID - if we can call this time period that, I had struggled tjust to grocery shop and have a reason besides my 9-5 to leave the house... it was bad. I've been working on sensory survival tookit stuff and allowing myself to have what I need to thrive and have better coping mechanisms. You mentioned Loop plugs - my niece loves hers - have not bought a pair yet but I do love using my headphones in noise blocking mode just to lower the surrounding volume of background noise.
Response: I was surprised how much of an effect the loops would have. I wasn't paying attention to how much noise was affecting me stress wise.
