Meitalt

Hi, my name is Meital, I am 31 years old. I am a mother to a sweet boy and a wife to a wonderful man from Israel.

I work in a company that recycle fabric and turn it into all kinds of products. this is really fun and inspiring. My true passion is crafting.

In our house I have my very own studio and a little place of happiness all to myself.

I love swaps! And will always go for the extra mile to make the people I’m sending swaps to smile.

Please note: I am using recycled packages from time to time just to help save some resources from our planet. I encourage you to do that as well.

You can watch my works and swaps in my flickr page *if you are suppose to get a swap from me watch out cause the pic may be there...

PLEASE! describe your package as boring as possible... crafts supplies, candies... etc. If you must write a value on the package please write only 10-20$, anything over 40-50$ will be held at the customs, and I'll have to pay lots of money to release it.

I'm ver crafty in general. I enjoy paper crafting, stamping, scrapbooking and sewing.

I'm always working on scrapbooking albums for my son and family memories so boy, family, travel themes are great for me to use. I also LOVE all the new vintage and distressed themed supplies.

Mixed media is a new thing that I'm exploring. I don't have all the fancy shmansy colors and instruments but I am doing my best with what I've got.

I have TONS of old vintage books in different languages. lots in Hebrew but also some French, Yiddish, Chinese, English, dictionary pages, children's books and many more. I am up for a private swap of these. just PM me.

Come check out my youtube channel! I started filming the process of making scrapbook layouts and it is really fun! I would love to know what you think of them. youtube channel

I am OBSESSED with Red and White Polka dots! anything you send with Red and White polka dots will receive a heart!

colors I love teal, turquoise, aqua and brown but really don't have colors that I don't like.

my favorite color combinations:

Aqua and Red

Turquoise and Brown

Red and White

things I would like AKA wish list

• something shabby/country style to decorate my studio

• cute Japanese fabric it can be a FQ or any other size.

• Red and white polka dotted anything.

• Softies in Tilda style - like the Angeles and rabbits in this flickr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/tildaandco/pool/

• Beautiful papers and fabrics (especially Japanese fabrics).

• Rub ons (serious addiction!)

• Scrapbooking and sewing books or magazines (they can be used, i don't mind).

• ephemera to use on my scrapbooking- old children pages, dictionary pages, music sheets etc, even some of your daily newspaper can be nice

• vintage style trinkets

• I'm planing a vintage super hero birthday for my son so anything that can go with that theme would be awesome.

• Mixed media supplies

• Edward and Bella greeting farm stamped images.

• Rubber ducks! not the plain yellow ones. the ones who dressed up as another thing like super hero ducks, saferi ducks etc.

• washi tapes

• I am addicted to dollar stores. in Israel we have them but in a much smaller scale then in the US and it is rare to find scrapbooking related stuff.

• rubber/clear stamps, ink pads or embossing powders

• fabric coloring pouders

• Toys for my son, he is 4.5 years old (more about him down below).

• anything that you think my husband would like (more about him down below).

• Freezer paper (can't get that here)

• anything NICI

• pretty packaging materials

• anything Moomin

• DMC sewing thread in any color

• handmade items done with love

Well, I don't have much here, but I would really prefer not getting things that I will never use or put on display such as ATC's, postcards and matchboxes. dotees are also not "my cup of tea".

please don't send me crosses, angels, or anything religious and/or stuff that relates to non jewish holidays (christmass, thanksgiving etc.).

can't understand their "cuteness": Hello kity, disney, skulls.

I don't use ribbons, buttons and plain stickers (the one's with white background) nor do I care for loose stickers unless they are really special /relate to my profile (unless I'm n a swap for stickers please avoid from sending them to me).

please don't send me any food unless it's chocolate or crumpets (see my wish list).

I realized I should probably say that I am a NON-SMOKER. I am extremely sensitive to cigarette smoke, so please keep this in mind if sending me items that hold the odor. Thanks for being so considerate!!

Aviv is My wonderful amazing hubby who is so patient and supportive in my hobbies. he enjoys going out on the outdoors and flying his RC helies and air planes. he is totally addicted to another babies that he is raising at home- his iPhone.and iPad.. .. well you get the point, he's a gadgets type of guy. I would also love to surprise him with something handmade like crocheted stuff or other in "men" theme like video games, computers etc. He wears t shirts size XL.

My son, Rotem the sunshine of my life was born on April 2008. he is a true blessing and joy all wrapped in a small body. he loves things that he can't touch and play with :-) He adores super heroes, cars, airplanes, helicopter and trains among other things. any kind of toys for his age especially handmade would be awesome. characters he likes: Spiderman, Batman, Superman and other heroes are perfect.

Desperate housewifes, Grey's Anatomy, Private Practice, Once upon a time

Celtic music, Old Rock (Metallica, Guns and Roses)

Still looking for an idea to surprise me? (this list is also for my husband in case he ever peeks here)
