ALWAYS FINDING ART PROJECTS IN STUFF AROUND ME (OTHER THAN THEIR INTENDED USES)
classical (esp. baroque chamber)to country (jodee messina; alan jackson) but my pre-sets in my car are mostly on my public radio station. music is mp3 for walking (6- 8 mi. a day)
attracted to that which glitters; fond of metalwork; like stained glass and mosaic. I tend to work big so I don't have use magnifiers ( a vision thing).
I love swaps b/c it brings me happy art mail!
ONLY WATCH ONE SHOW- HEROES ( BUT I MANAGE TO MISS EVERY OTHER EPISODE)
when tvs go high-def only, i may not get one. I can't realy se t.v. very well, anyway. It is like radio to me.
Yeah, lost my reading vision- so I don't do much of that any more.
i like blank books for art projects.
never met an altered book i did not like.
OTHER: Girl Scout leader (Brownies); they love a good craft; but the program is really about leadership development; lots of good teamwork and cooperation skill development in craft projects
i also train Cub Scout leaders.
war makes me sad, breaks myheart and keeps me awake at night.
only buy fairly traded chocolate. google slavery, africa and chocolaate sometime. it will break your heart.
PLAID ! (yes, it is a color)
OTHER-OTHER: love swaps; gives me something to do at lunch at work in a snaggy work situation (I love lunch)
3 kids- college age.
2 cats
love the northwoods, jack pine, and call of the waves of gitchigumee (longfellow)

Hi there!! I'd like to invite you to join my Button Scavenger Hunt swap :)
I did indeed Google slavery and chocolate, and I read a few articles before I finally got to one that listed producers and their partial involvement in child slavery through their purchase of Ivory Coast cocoa. Geesh, pretty much every major manufacturer I have ever known :( It's deeply saddening.
I did get the frame but not a cup. Maybe it will come soon?
I just wanted to let you know about round two of the vintage photos ATC swap. I hope you'll join!
May the wind always be at your back and the road rise up to meet you...
Hi there, I sent your vintage photo ATC package out on Monday. Hope you like it. Karan
I just wanted to say I am so happy you enjoyed the angel ATC I sent you, thanks for your beautiful coments kara x
New felt pin swap for you! I wanted to be the first to invite you to my new felt pin swap. I'm sorry you didn't get to participate in my first one. Please come join us now if you are still interested (and caught up enough!)! Thanks! Laura
Hello fellow swappers If you’ve been keeping an eye on my profile you may have noted the address changed a couple of times. That’s because in the last few weeks I’ve made two very unexpected moves and fallen behind on my swaps. As this is my first lot with swapbot im feeling highly embarrassed about the way it’s gone so far. I pride my self on being on time, always and this is quite frustrating to me.
I wanted to offer all my partners my most sincere and heartfelt apologies – I will be posting all of my swaps out this week or early next, but they ARE going out. You have most certainly NOT been forgotten or flaked on. My limited access to the net of late has also caused this apology also to be late, but I am on top of it and I have some pretty things to put in the post as soon as I can get to the post office.
Warmest wishes belili
Thank–you for joining my Matryoshka Doll swap. I hope you have a lot of fun with it. I have set up a new group at flickr for us to display photos of our creations. If you can, please post pictures of your Matryoshka Doll there for everyone to enjoy. Thanks!
