About Me

Hello I am Sara,

I'm 40 and a self employed Picture Framer which I run with my husband in the UK. Along with the framing we run a quirky little gift shop. I love vintage things... typewriters, printing blocks, tins etc and have been known to dress in 1940's gear. Last year I joined weheartmail and I LOVED it!!

Favourite music:-

An endless list and VERY diverse. There is ALWAYS music on in our house

Goldfrapp, Imogen Heap, Phoebe Killdeer, Glen Miller and other 1940's big band groups, Billy Holiday, A perfect Circle, Dave Gilmore, The Beatles, The Doobie Brothers, Rival Sons, Frank Zappa, Gotye, Small Faces, Rod Stewart, Air, Morcheeba, and lots lots more

Favourite Books:-

Terry Pratchett, Neil Gaiman, Douglas Adams

Favourite Movies:-

Amelie, Mic Macs, Big Fish, Geisha, Blazing Saddles, Life of Brian

Favourite Crafts:-

Scrapbooking, Paper Cutting, Knitting (just started), Cross stitch, Baking, Steampunk, Snail Mailing and making pretty things generally.

I love things that make me smile, photography, nature, birds, butterflies, foxes and especially Hares!

Likes/non-likes

Not really a girly girl. So no cutesy stuff if you can help it (although it's not the end of the world) or Kawaii -too cutsie for me. Nothing religious

I LOVE handmade! Handmade anything! I like paper things, quirky things, nature, old lace, neutral colours, browns, creams blues & greens paper clips, a good joke or quirky poem, hares, and things that make me laugh & I love things people have put their hearts into. Oh and mint tea, Lemongrass tea and orange tea.....yum

Just discovered pocket letters - oh yes, where have they been all my life

Comment: Hi Sara! Can I please be your art friend? ;+) I absolutely LOVED what you sent and I'm IN love with the presentation! I had all my items waiting for me in my art room ready to be wrapped--as SOON as I received your swap I was inspired to try something similar--mine was not quite as specialized but your presentation was so inspiring. Thanks, too, for all the sweet goodies inside!
Response: You're very welcome, I'm glad you liked everything. Thanks for the heart

Just Because

Thanks for being a part of my group!

How strange... I got an E-Mail notification that I have received a message from stampystamps and when I logged on there was none - and you weren't even online O.O

Strange things happen :)
