Boy my profile is so out of date. I am NOW 62! Love anything crafty. I dabble a little bit here and there in everything. Scrapbooking, crafting, creating, knitting, crocheting. My craft room is proof of that.
I am very eclectic in my music. I like a little bit of everything.
Christmas Movies! My favorite regular movies are The Sound of Music, and old Disney movies from when I was young, Herbie th eLove Bug, Swiss Family Robinson, etc.
This hasn't changed much since I opened this account.
My favorite things.............
*fabric (vintage and current) -
*yarn - I love to knit and crochet. I like working with all types of yarns from WW to wool, from sock yarn to thick and quick.
*color - my favorite colors are blue and green.
*buttons - I LOVE buttons, vintage and new. I have my grandmother's buttons, my mother's buttons, and some of my aunt's. They have all passed and I love just sifting through them. One of my favorites is rhinestone buttons.
*thrift stores - I love shopping at thrift stores, especially for vintage cotton fabrics.
*socks - I have always loved fun and funky socks. My dream is to knit myself some socks.
*vintage postcards - I have a small collection of vintage valentine postcards. I have a few easter, new years, xmas and others, but Valentines are my fave.
*charm bracelets - I have collected several vintage charm bracelets and have made myself a few. Sterling silver and regular metal.
*vanilla - I love most anything vanilla, ice cream, soap, candles, cereal
*lavender - I love dried lavender for sachets.
*Anything Tim Holtz - I love distressing things, metal charms and keys and tags, anything with numbers on it.
*tea - I like orange/black teas, lemon and mint. No earl grey please.
*aroma therapy oils - vanilla, lavender, orange, sandlewood, mint.
I posted previously about our lovely whippets we had but they are both gone now. We waited three years before we got our new baby Noel. We call her our First Noel, as I love Christmas movies and music. But lucky for us her name was aleady picked and we just kept it.
Things I don't care for, don't need or am allergic to: *onions, tomatoes, garlic and cheese (don't like) *cottonseed oil (allergic) *perfumes (other than natural oils, i.e. vanilla, orange, lavender) (allergic) *coffee - I don't care for coffee I do like tea, so if you send coffee or tea, most likely it will end up dying some natural fabrics or natual ribbons or someting. Don't be offended!
