About Me

She's just a small town girl.

o hai. I was raised in a tiny town in Washington surrounded by white trash but I've never been to Forks. I'm short. I think that's partly why I'm still obsessed with stuff for children. I collect vintage children's books (50's-70's are my favorite) and vintage cookbooks (pre 1970).

Now I live in Seattle with my boyfriend, a roommate and a cat.

Likes

twilight. fashion. bad art. parliament lights. diet coke. baby pink, light pink. black. girly stuff. off-white/ecru/cream/eggshell. hello kitty. japanese stuff, engrish and other silly asian things. ridiculousness. childrens things (examples: barbie bandaids, stickers, crayons). high quality tracing paper. food: cute foods, fruits, silly foods, plush foods. cooking. baking. 50's housewife stuff (like aprons, polka dots). owls. puppies and dogs. kittens (but not cats). hand-made/home-made things. x-men and gargoyles cartoons from the 90's.

Dislikes

wal-mart. beer commercials. the color orange/deep shades of pink. santa claus. scooby doo. hannah montana, high school musical or any other current kid's show. generic landscape photography. scrapbooking supplies (i don't scrapbook and believe me, i'm drowning in scraps of paper as it is. so unless it's absolutely amazing, i'll pass.) convenience items that are just TOO convenient (easy mac, microwave pizza, disposable underwear).

Favorite Movies

The Professional, The Fifth Element, uhh TWILIGHT.

Favorite Television

Fringe, Family Guy, TLC, Campus Ladies, Heroes, Burn Notice, Lipstick Jungle, Sex and the City, Tenacious D

Favorite Crafts

cards, paper goods, latch hook, knitting, sewing, quilting, collage. I also paint, draw and like ceramics.

Favorite Music

Aaron Neville, Prince, Crystal Castles, Radiohead, Telefon Tel Aviv (RIP), Ratatatat, Smoosh, the Faint, umm did I say Radiohead?

Favorite Books

Douglas Coupland, Chuck Palahniuk, Bret Easton Ellis, Dean Koontz, Gossip Girl, oh yeah, TWILIGHT.

Wishlist

recipes. collaged creative envelopes/packaging. old children's book illustrations/anything unintentionally creepy anything exclusive/special to your area of the world. cute vintage stuff in general. plush stuff sanrio/kawaii

*I am also more than willing to take any ATC's off your hand that you may have received and thought "Ugh, this is awful!" (I am a bad art aficionado). I'll even make a really fantastic one to trade with you if you'd like.

Comment: Now, I feel horrible because the ugly atcs I sent out were horrific! I mean they were downright nasty. But the ones I received have beautiful qualities about them. I guess its all in the eye of the beholder, cause I love yours! I think it is beautiful! Is it made of wax and enamel or something?
Response: Oh my gosh, I think mine is hideous! lol. The card is a piece of matte board that I had previously collaged on. I ripped off the glued on pieces and then gesso'd it. And then the rest is in color pencil. The shiny parts are an acrylic varnish. I am glad you love it even though I was going for awful (:

Comment: OMG, what a great package! I don't know where to start! First of all, I LOVE the earrings and buttons and the way you packaged them... the ribbon holding the envie shut was a great touch. Then, there's all the WAY FUNNY postcards (70's men in their undies AND Korean grannies in neoprene suits? Awesome!!). The fabric is fab, and I can't wait to make a stuffie out of it,. Speaking of stuffies - the momoji stuffie is way cute, did you make her? And last but not least the CD... hmm, I like Luda, Radio Head, and I played classical piano as a kid. Where does that put me...LOL!!! Thanks so much, a great surprise to come home to after a shitty day at work. PM me again in the future, I'd be happy to do a private swap again some time. Tell your puppy I said hi!

Warning - do not open that box. It is a bomb wrapped in D&G fashion ads. LOL.

bixgothxgirl on Mar 20, 2009:

thanks for inviting me to join should be interesting and fun!

shinianen on Mar 15, 2009:

If you're ever interested in a private swap, PM me!! Natalie

PenguinBurger on Mar 13, 2009:

Well the bed and breakfast we're staying at is very touristy. I think they're taking advantage to become more successful!

PenguinBurger on Mar 13, 2009:

Yep! My boyfriend and I decided to take a road trip to Vancouver and will be stopping there on the way. We're leaving in 2 days!

CarlyJo on Feb 28, 2009:

hi there thanks for joining my last swap, here is my new one if you are interested! Easy Kawaii Swap 2

telephonesnow on Feb 19, 2009:

You're dead on about too-convenient convenient items. At some point, people are going to be too lazy to even be bothered to throw things away after a one time use and they will just disintegrate after one-usage...for our convenience. Yuck/shudder.

Anyways... thanks for joining my swap! Pls feel free to check out my other ones. They're mildly interesting, in a sort of conceited way. Ha.

Have a great weekend!
