About Me

!! please note swappers outside of EU, when sending more than a card/letter etc.: please fill the customs form CN22 and write "no value". (That doesn't mean I don't appreciate your work)

Favorite Books

I read nearly anything that is written nicely and clearly. Not a big fan of horror books any more, though.

I am always looking for new authors whose books to read.

I normally don´t like novels where the story jumps back and forward in the time as I have really hard time following it then :D.

Favorite Movies

Here again I like movies based on real life, true stories, but also enjoy comedies. I don't watch much films, as I loose interest very quickly, if there's something boring.

Favorite Television

I only watch television while doing something else, so it must be easy watching or very interesting documentaries.

Almost every time I watch TV, I knit something, it helps me to focus on the program.

Favorite Crafts

Knitting, rubber stamping, card making, sewing and some crocheting and lino cutting.

I don´t :( like

  • skulls, bones, skeletons -themed things
  • sticky notes (as these often doesn't even stick :D)
  • grapefruit
  • cosmetic face masks
  • teacher's stickers (saying "good job" etc.) or very childlish stickers
  • cherries in chocolate
  • very seasonal die cuts, like Easter, Halloween etc. (Christmas in small amounts is fine :))

Favorite colours

  • turquoise
  • greyish blue
  • also pastels, soft vintage colours
  • yellows, greens
  • but in your craft to me, please feel free to use what colours you like to use
  • and I think all colours have some tone of it, that I like!

Note Please

Please note that the mail from Finland takes normally around one week, but sometimes up to two or even four weeks to travel internationally.

I click the "sent" button when I already sent my swap and don't have it in my hands anymore. So the date does not always match (and is often one day later than the actual sending date).

I am easily pleased :) I don't expect the swaps be directly from my likes only as I am interested in seeing what others like to do and what colours they use and how, a s o. There are so many things I like, but don't know it yet. The list is not to restrict your creativity!

Please, don't think you should send extras to earn a heart. I rate the swap itself, and if I think it's worth a heart, it will get a heart.

If any problems, questions or that kind, please message me :)

Wishlist/ things I like:

  • unused postcards (please, no touristy ones), especially I like music themed, art and illustrated postcards

  • swaps with written postcards, almost any theme: touristic, vintage, streets, children, photography, dance

  • colours and colourful things (like stationery, socks, mugs)

  • rubber stamps

  • tags

  • labels ("empty" ones, where is room for writing address or something else, can have decoration)

  • doilies

  • wax seal stamps/stamp heads (I have a flower wreath, feather, envelope, heart, rose and a star)

  • wax pearls or sticks for making wax seal

  • socks (European size 40)

  • body butter/hand cream/lotion, but please no vanilla scent

  • coloured book bindig rings (the ones that look like keyrings)

  • Welsh springer spaniel (theme), dogs

  • lilac, daisies

  • smell of jasmine, rhubarb

  • coffee

  • tea towels

  • tea

  • I especially love Barry's Tea -brand teas and Twinings Blackcurrant & Blueberry -flavour

  • books

  • elastic cord

  • canvas tote bags :D

  • washi tape

  • Mr. Men (Little Miss Sunshine etc.)

  • mail related items

  • sheet music

  • plastic envelopes with popper closing (letter size, A5 and smaller)

  • stencils

  • donkeys, they looks so cute (theme)

  • hand written letters

  • ATC´s, flip books etc.

  • winter

  • sock yarn (with wool)

  • drawing

  • pens

  • lace

  • waterproof thin pointed pens

  • many other things :)

Comment: hello., Your envelope is beautiful. Did you use a stamp then embossing powder for your snowflakes? they are not the kind of stickers I would normally buy, but I like them, because like the stationary, i haven't seen it before. the paper with no writing on it is a great pattern and color scheme. i do not like international postage but i do like the opportunity to see different, pretty things. thank you. god bless and merry christmas.

Comment: Oh my goodness, this envelope is BEAUTIFUL! It was difficult to want to open because I didn't want to ruin it at all. But also thank you so so much for all the lovely things you put together inside. I love all of it, the mini envelopes, the washi, the little papers, the tea, the beautiful napkin, and the lovely postcard you decorated with your note on it! This is some of the most lovely mail I have ever received, thank you so much!
