I am a stay at home mom who loves arts and crafts. When we recently bought a new house I was so excited to have a room to set up as a craft studio.I love that with crafts you can create custom decor and items that are exclusively your own.

I like paper crafts, sewing, and sketching. I like to use recyclables and scraps in my crafts. I also love to plan parties and make custom invitations.

I love Legos. Since I was a little girl Legos have alway been my favorite toy. When my nephews were young they would come to visit and ask to take my Legos home. I would tell them "I am saving them for my kids". Well now I have a daughter of my own and have recently started to build with my Legos again. I tell her that I am saving them for my grandchildren. :)

I like to cook but only for special occasions. I like having dinner parties. If you come to my house on any week day you would most likely be served cereal for dinner.

I studied to be an Architectural drafter. Worked in that field for 5 yrs. When I married my husband I became a house wife and then a stay at home mom when our daughter was born. Never could have guessed how much I would love it. I still enjoy architure though.

I like to travel, though have never traveled outside the Unites States. I am a country girl at heart, but really enjoy visiting big city. My favorite so far are Alanta, Chicago, and D.C.

I love trying new techniques. Since joining swap-bot I have been watching lots of You Tube Videos to learn new thing.

I love to read. I like to listen to audio books while I craft. I love the Anne of Green Gable series. I like mystery, suspense, historical romance, and sci-fi books. I like books by Agatha Christie.
