ATC's, making postcards, zines, photographies, bookmaking, cyanotype, paper anything, collage, simple sewing, stuffies, cardmaking, making prints, turning junk into something, shrines, shadowboxes, mini theater sets, and I'm sure there are many more that I haven't tried yet.

Some say that adventures begin when you go somewhere new, but for me, it began when I bought a house in the town I went to college in. I have a garden, my Weims, NPR, and the constant need to keep going and exploring the farmers markets, fields, and world around me.

With that said, I also enjoy different languages, handmade anything, nature, animals, foxes, homemade boxes, biology, black and white, questions, finding four-leaf clovers, literature or poetry related, brainy humor, identifying flowers, weeds, edible plants, folk with a twist, worldly items and thoughts, imagined creatures, vintage odds and ends, deep reds, dark coffees, browns, earthy tones (but I also like a little zing, think Marie Antoinette), maps, dark humor, ideas and their connections, weird Kawaii, unique paper, odd embellishments, block printing, accordion books, Japanese this and that, unusual photographs or photographs made unusually.

Too much pink, Lisa Frank-esque, pastel, trying to convert me through an ATC, Disney anything, foam shaped animals or other things, dog stickers or stationary (unless its Weimaraner related or handmade), scrapbook themed paper and most store bought embellishments.

The Time Travelers Wife, The Botany of Desire, The Animal Series, random artist books, zines, Adorn, Whole Dog Journal, His Dark Materials series, poetry by Margret Atwood, research articles on Humpback Whales or Orca, anything by Diane Ackerman (A Natural History of the Senses), Craft and Make magazines, and many many more...
