Hello! I love snail mail! Sending and receiving snail mail has helped me through the lonely parts of the pandemic.
ππππππππππππππππ
I live in New England. Iβm in my mid 40s. I have an 9 year old child. I work with children who have learning disabilities.
I like to think Iβm open-minded. My interests include zero waste, environmentalism, intersectional feminism, Gretchen Rubin books, Japanese culture, positive psychology, nature, body positivity (does anyone else want to see 'sticker girls' in plus sizes?). I love tag-saling (or yard-saling), thrift-shopping. I just love old things -- old music, old architecture. I'm a big fan of RuPaul's Drag Race.
π²π³πΏππππ»ππππ I like watching journal- or penpal-with-me videos on YouTube! Watching them is actually what led me to join swap-bot. I particularly like Johanna Clough, Brittany McCowan, Paper Letter Blog, Kyra Pace.
I love personalizing swaps if I can! I love finding people the items that I think they will really like. I read profiles.
Overall themes/aesthetics that I like are
KAWAII.
EPHEMERA/VINTAGE.
NATURE.
BOTANICAL.
FLORAL.
VICTORIAN.
JAPANESE AESTHETIC.
ECLECTIC/FUNKY.
KITSCHY/RETRO.
80's, 90's.
I like receiving stationery, papers, stickers, die- cuts, washi tape in all the above themes...
More specifically I like:
Studio Ghibli
Moomins
Victorian scraps
Flow Magazine and books.
Old postage stamps
Japanese stationery
Mushrooms/Woodland
Celestial/Moon
Astrology
The Little Prince (Le Petit Prince)
Alice in Wonderland (Disney and Sir John Tenniel)
Sanrio
San-X or Q-Lia.
Daiso!.
Origami paper or Origami patterns.
Tim Holtz
Mrs.Grossman stickers.
Pipsticks
vintage Lisa Frank
Coffee
Vellum.
Doilies.
Lace/ribbon.
Rainbows.
Dislikes:

Any Disney made after 1985.
Llamas.
Flamingos.
Planner stickers.
Rewards stickers
Kids stickers (unless itβs kawaii ππ or 80βs,90βs).
State postcards.

Hey β€οΈ I am looking for new PenPals - who swap (medium to heavy) Slams mainly β¦. (But Everything is fine ! π As for myself - my own stash is pretty much β¦ 80%Slams, 10% Decos, 5% Lyrix, 4% Xslips & Bags and 1% FBs - lolβ¦.) But Iβm really in need of Swappersβ¦!? (For Stress Relief - I like to sit down and churn out handfuls of Super Unqiue , Creative & Fun Slams! πππ No βrun of the millβ / βSame Ole Same Oleβ kinda Slamsβ¦. [which - admittedly - both me and my BFF , Michelle, both did all throughout Junior High and High School during our PenPalling tenure β¦. Lol {Side Note - I penpalled from 4th Grade until Senior Year if High School, had a very long hiatus and only began again a couple months ago β¦! πππ That being why I donβt have a solid group of βReliableβ Snail Mail Friends to swap with β¦. π₯π₯π₯!}]) Anyways - sorry for the ramble , lol β¦. If youβd be interested , however , Iβd love to send the First! (Just PM me your Addy okay β€οΈ)
