Favorite Crafts

I am a boy who loves GLITTER, fabrics, glues, beads, paper, vintage anything, buttons, old photos, broken or old costume jewelry, yarn, threads, anything shiny

ATC's: ever since I found out what ATC's are I have been going crazy making like 6 at a time. If anyone would like to set up PRIVATE ACT trades let me know! I have the following up for adoption...

6 Robots 3 Circus Freaks 1 day of the dead 1 Owls 1 octopus man 1 Inspirational Dragon

All of my ATC's are hand done...I hand draw and paint all of them.

About Me

I am a 26yr old Musical Theatre student who is also a props master, professional actor and puppet builder. I would love to get into ATC trading because I love sharing my art with other people and...well....HOW FUN IS THIS IDEA?!

Favorite Music

Sufjan Stephens, Jens Lekman, Mika, Grizzly Bear, Amos Lee, Fleet Foxes, Avett Brothers, Bon Iver, Decemberists, Dirty Projectors, Dent May, The Duhks, Edward Sharpe, Florence and the Machine, Hot chip, Jay Brannan

Random Things I am into

Gnomes, Steampunk, Unicorns (dorky I know, but they are awesome) puppets, anything vintage 1940-1970's, Scarfs, hats, robots and owls, Those plastic bracelets that is just a circle of colored plastic, Bags, Stickers, Rhinestones, old book pages, notebooks, journals, koozies,

I just came across those Knitted Gnome Hats on Etsy....I am drooling for one of them!

Random info

I hand paint every envelope/box I send out...I don't think it's a finished trade unless i the packaging is neat too.


I make Muppet style puppets so if you happen to have some monster fur, fleece or terry cloth lying around and don't want it...I will gladly take it off your hands.


I sew....some. I used to make "dolls" called "Ibba's" they were all made from old clothes and ties. The back story to them were that they were the little guys(and girls) that stole your socks from the dryer or chewed holes in your favorite sweatters...just to get more materials to make more of their kind.

I sew all by hand, hopefully this summer I will be getting a sewing machine and can start making the creatures again. I am doing all of my "dolls" by hand now. I also don't have any of my old patterns (due to like 3 moves) so everything I make is a little wonky....hope you don't mind!


I LOVE Disney Villains and Snow White

Comment: I am really sad that I have to give a 1 on this, but after not receiving anything and with no contact from this swapper about why, I feel like I dont have a choice. I have sent 3 messages asking to hear from him before rating; if there was an extenuating circumstance, I would be accomodating of that.

Comment: I loved the ATCs! Jonathan sent 2 ATCs and both were very artistic and personal. I love Cabaret, but didn't know much about Big River, so I went to Wikipedia and now I want to see that one, too! Jonathan also decorated the envelope and I'm going to use it in one my New York scrapbook pages! Thanks so much!!
Response: glad you enjoyed them! Thanks!
