🖋POSTCARDS CHECK the above themes for postcard ideas^^ also I prefer them written on and stamped! I keep them in a photo album and it’s so much more special when there’s something sweet written on the back!

🖋If you put time into what you send me, I'll probably love it! I really appreciate when my tastes are considered when creating a crafty swap and I usually try to do the same :)

🖋Letters: Tell me a little about yourself and how you are. I love skipping the small talk and getting a bit of heart and soul in a letter, stories that are unique and cherished.

🖋Sketchbooks, I love any sketchbook in the paperblanks brand style and have my go to Micheals artist loft sketchbooks

🖋Movies: RomComs, hero movies , the classic Barbie movies are my guilty pleasure ,Thriller movies but not horror, Disney and Mess with your mind movies! like inception, the butterfly effect etc...

🖋Notecards: Anything that goes with the themes I've mentioned above. Or anything really I use notecards often for swaps ..

🖋Journals: I really LOVE journals, I have a collection of around a dozen that I've accumulated over the years. Each of my journal books have a purpose, they all have something written in them. Although not all of them are full. Currently I have a dream journal, letters I might never send journal and my regular journals plus a couple books for writing ideas or poems or stories.My favorite is a "junk journal" I got as a gift from a swap, I love looking thru the pages. (UPDATE: I now have more and not all of them have a purpose, yet)

🖋SNACKS: chocolate but also chips and nuts. My favorite chocolate is black chocolate mixed with something. I like mint, strawberry, banana, nuts (Although I'm allergic to walnut, pecans, and macadamia nuts not terribly but it'll make my mouth itch), sour candy, etc.. im open and excited to try new snacks (Just no dairy or gluten but if its really special send it anyways and ill try one then give the rest to my loved ones)

🖋Shows: , Sherlock Holmes!, Pretty little liars, Once upon a time, Switched at birth, Sailor moon (The older version!), Hunter X Hunter & fruits basket! Love is blind, How I met your mother.

POSTSTAMPS? (like stamps but if you send stamps tell me how you keep your stamps and why you like them.)

SKIN PRODUCTS ex: facemasks (Unfortunately I have really sensitive skin and can’t use most skin products but if you do send some they’ll probably go to my mother :) )

GLITTER WASHITAPE Its just so clunky and messy

✏️It couldn't be my profile without a bit dedicated to art 🎨

-I basically studied visual arts for 3 years in college and I've always loved crafting!

-I like to try all mediums. I've discovered I really like gouache and watercolors (Im currently using the Sakura Koi watercolors and I made a mini Daniel smith palette) I don't often draw in graphite Cause it’s messy but it’s definitely fun! 🙃. I really like ink and fine liners. My style is very varried. I received a schminke watercolour pan from swapbot and I treasure it!

I love being a part of this community, I like making just as much as I like receiving packages. Being on swapbot a little while, I've discovered that I'm actually a little picky. It takes visible time and effort for me to really get happy with a package or letter. I also appreciate when I feel seen ❤️. Sometimes I'll also send you a thank you letter, maybe with a little surprise too. If I feel like you took my profile into consideration for your package you'll usually get a heart.

I usually rate when I receive the swap. Sometimes I will forget to do it right away but I will always rate. I keep my non rated swaps in sent and archive my rated swaps, so then I can always keep track of what I haven't rated. Feel free to remind me if you're waiting up for a rating from me!

I will definitely contact you if there are any complications on my part and I will eventually to messages (used to be better at this but yk life). I really don't mind if you're running a little late but be sure to let me know.

P.s Add a little star with a C in it on your package if you read my full profile. Thanks if you did and hope you have an excellent day! :)

Interested in learning about most anything. Feel very drawn to the moon.

Do a lot of meditations either to centre/ground or for guidance..

Don't do many spells, have an altar set up as a visual representation of myself, my goals and my current focus. It changes at least once per season, whenever I feel it is time..
