About Me:
I am 24 years old, will be 25 this spring. IΓ’β¬β’m married, but for now no kiddos. My husband and I live in beautiful Northern New Mexico. I enjoy cooking, especially New Mexican food! My husband and I love all different kinds of cuisines- Indian, Thai, Italian, Chinese, Mexican, seafoodΓ’β¬Β¦ Our favorite ethnic food is Vietnamese- I love me a big bowl of Pho! Aside from cooking I find myself immersed in many different creative hobbies, and this fall I am going back to school to study art. Over the years, I have dabbled in many different forms of artistic expression- From dance and photography to makeup artistry and jewelry making. This online swapping idea is so cool! IΓ’β¬β’m so excited to get involved in some swaps and hopefully meet some new people who share my passion for creativity!
Hobbies:
Jewelry making- I most enjoy working with gemstone and glass beads, chain and wire. I am very much intrigued by the metaphysical and healing properties of gemstones, and I like to incorporate them into each piece I create.
Drawing and Painting- I keep a sketchbook-journal where I draw and paint. Colored pencils are my favorite medium for color, but I recently starting experimenting with acrylic and watercolor as well. I also enjoy painting designs on objects such as flower pots, wood boxes and birdhouses.
Quilting- I took up quilting a few years ago when I wanted to make a special gift for my mother-in-law. I have been hooked ever since! I canΓ’β¬β’t go to the craft store without purchasing at least a yard or two of new fabric- even when I donΓ’β¬β’t have a project in the making! I can never get enough fabric- my favorite fabrics are prints from the 1920s through 1950s. I also like modern prints, paisley and modern florals.
Scrapbooking- I started scrap booking after my wedding. What better time to start scrap booking than at the beginning of your happily ever after? I could spend hours at Michaels and Hobby Lobby just picking out paper! The biggest thrill for me when it comes to scrapbooking is the shopping part- picking out all the pretty papers, embellishments, stamps and ephemera. I get all anxious just thinking about it!
