I live in Southern California, and raise a thirteen year old son. We have two guinea pigs. I am always interested in something be it fairy gardens, homeschooling, teeth remineralizing, herbal medicine, feng shui, reconstructing new clothing from the old - recycled sweaters or other clothing ,felting, permaculture way of gardening, world schooling schools like Sudburry Valley school or million other things. I make my own toothpaste, laundry soap, bar soap, deodorant, and many other things. I also play guitar, mostly classical pieces. And of course, crafting and art. I love to garden and to create things with my thoughts and my hands. I always send out the packages, so if there is a problem, please let me know. I almost always reuse the packaging, so it might not look so good on the outside, but I always try to put good things inside. And I always rate the same or latest the next day I receive the package.This swapping thing is so much fun!

I love jewel tone colors - rich reds, blues, yellows,greens, teals, purples, rust orange, rasberry red. Not too fond of pastels(although I adore mauve pink) or neon colors. I usually dislike variegated yarn and items made with it(especially with pastels involved).

I set up a swap in the Natural Fibers Group. Feel free to join. ;)
I have not tried Tunisian yet. But I am crocheting Valentine's stuff like crazy... I need to focus back on the learning Tunisian...
I would love to swap with you. Let's set one up?
Thanks for being a member of the Crafting Queens~
Just packed your tawashi swap. (I apologize in advance for the struggle to open it.) Enjoy!
Your profile is beautiful. We have a lot of common interest for two different worlds. Have a great weekend!
Daiva, I've left a rating, but just have to know...did you also make the little beads? This is the most wonderful package I've rec'd. I'm on cloud nine. I just keep looking at everything over and over. I'm so lucky.
Thank you for your compliment about my blog. Actually I am in doubt for quite some time now about writing in English, but I think my English is not good enough. Other that that I would love to blog in English. I am not sure what to do.
The swap is on its way. There will be two envelopes arriving, because that way postage was cheaper. Hope they will get to you quickly. Actually they were sent out yesterday (by my mom, she just let me know today that they were sent).
