I am a rainbow located in the Eastern US. I live with my Man and our chocolate lab who at three years old is still VERY much a puppy. I dream of moving to the mountains. I dream of owning chickens and goats and honey bees. I dream of not working for someone else (I am a web designer, and I love it, but I hate 9 - 5!). I dream of crafting and growing and loving!

I like to knit, although I don't know many of the techniques I can knit scarves all day! I knit a pair of fingerless gloves with the little half thumb this winter, and I was quite pleased with the results!

I like to make bead jewelry. There is something so exciting about pretty sparkly glass and gemstone beads.

I have loved to sew since I was a teenager, when I bought my Great-grandmother's old sewing machine from my Grandpa. I LOVE making skirts and shirts and bags!

I recently discovered the joy of cutting strips of glass, drilling holes in them and making wind chimes!

I love robin egg blue, grass green, cucumbers, and all shades of hydrangea!

I love herbs and spices. I love glass, especially vintage glass. I love anything witchy - green witchcraft not cartoon witchy. I love nature and natural things. I love pebbles and twigs and feathers and leaves. I love tarot cards. I love unique and unusual. I love vintage silverplated thrift store finds. I love pretty little spoons.

I love teacups and saucers, bowls, bottles, plates. I love hand knit or crocheted dishrags and towels. I have a special love for butter pats, which are tiny little plates made for your butter to sit on.

I really don't like plastic. If it can be bought in a glass or metal version, I much prefer it. A plain glass spice bottle is beautiful to me, where a plastic one only seems like trash. I have become very conscious of all of the "disposable" plastic that ends up in landfills without a thought - pens, makeup containers (mascara, lipstick, eye shadow, etc), food and product packaging, fast food containers, plastic straws.
