Hi there! :)
NOTE: as of February (2012) I am taking a break from snail mail swaps, with the exception of postcards. As I am a student my finances and time are limited. As a result I will not be able to take part in snail mail swaps until my university work has slowed and I have more money.
I'm Katie, or Kate, or Kitty. Whichever you prefer! :) I'm 20 and I am currently in my 3rd and final year of studying Sociology at The University of Huddersfield, UK. I plan to go on to do my teacher training in 2013 in order to become a Primary School teacher.
I enjoy many things such as gardening, baking, crafts, films, reading, writing to my lovely pen pals, spending time with my pets, and just generally socialising. :)
Please note, when i send things out, they MAY be in reused envelopes. I like to recycle wherever possible, so if you receive a slightly worn envelope/packaging, please do not be offended, I just like to reuse where I can.
Things I'd like to receive would be along the lines of:
-post cards (I collect them) -yarn/wool (I knit) -stickers (to add to my penpal letters) -pretty paper (for letter writing) -Pretty envelopes -pretty coloured pens (not gel ink, I smudge that) -any knitting items (e.g. pretty stitch-markers) -stamps (both rubber and postal) -seeds to plant (herbs or flowers) -Beads -Buttons -Craft tips/ideas
Pride and Prejudice, The Book Thief, Twilight saga, The Forgotten Garden, The House at Riverton, Interpretation of Murder, The Glassblower of Murano, A Dark Enchantment, Wuthering Heights, 19 Minutes, My Sister's Keeper, A Thousand Splendid Suns, Salem Falls,
Titanic, Jurassic Park, How to lose a guy in 10 days, He;s just not that into you, The Harry Potter films, LOTR
Knitting, Jewellery making, sewing.
I have bought things to make candles with, and I am always on the look out of ways for me to expand my crafty horizon! :)
Please note, I have been pretty generous with hearts but now that I am getting a little more experienced on swap-bot, I will only provide a heart if the swap IS extra special. If you send a little extra to what the requirements are.
Please do not be offended if you do not get a heart, you will still get a 5!
Here is a list of swaps I have been flaked on.
MissyFarbenspiel - Winter time photo swap. Deadline 31.12.11. http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/97550

Thank you, ours finish this Friday. Yeah I looked on amazon and saw it there to pre-order. I have just started to read The Road by Cornac McCarthy and I am hoping to re-read the twilight books over the summer holidays. :-)
Hi, I'm good as well thanks, looking forward to the kids summer holidays coming up. I read all 3 books. :-) I really enjoyed it, I will be buying the DVD when it comes out in September. :-)

Hey my dear. If you read description from Country swap once more, you'll see it's stated that we have 3 places for UK, not England. ;) Meaning one for England, one for Scotland and one for Wales. ;)
Got your card today! So sweet of you to angel for me :) I love the cathedral but I was even more excited to see the Roald Dahl stamp! It's my first one!
