Hi! I'm Cheryl! I'm married and I live in Plainfield, IL, about 40 miles southwest of Chicago. I'm a huge Chicago Blackhawks hockey fan.
Iβm non-denominational Christian, but appreciate and enjoy learning about other religions.
Proud fur momma of an "energetic" hound-mix dog named Jack, we adopted from a local shelter (Fall 2018).
I've worked in the social service field for over 20 years.
I love all things postal, snail mail and mail art. I'm not sure what I enjoy most...sending mail or receiving mail.
I enjoy visiting central Wisconsin and spending time in nature.
I enjoy going on tours (cemetery tours, factory tours, ghost tours, historical tours)
One of my simple joys is stumbling upon an interesting quote. Sometimes just watching tv, listening to the radio or reading a book can lead to the surprise of a quote that moves you. For some odd reason, I especially like very odd/obscure quotes, lines from movies and music lyrics. *If you have any favorites please pass them along.
LIKES/INTERESTS:
*Elvis
*Vintage ephemera! Vintage wrapping paper :)
*vintage holiday themes (example: 1950βs style Christmas ornaments)
*quirky, random, unexpected
*Pee Wee Herman
*journaling....a mix of junk journaling and gratitude journaling
*handmade items
*Stickers: kawaii mini puffy stickers, Korean diary stickers, planner stickers, odd/unusual stickers, promotional stickers, holiday stickers, vintage stickers......I really like stickers!
*Good Luck themes: four leaf clovers, happy Buddha images, horseshoes
*natural stones & crystals
*Stationery - traditional/weird logos/businesses with cool graphics
*miniature enamel/glass/metal figurines
*die cut or fun shaped gift cards (Starbucks or Target) No $ okay
*dog themed items (brown & white colored dogs - Jack Russell/Hound mix)
*I have pierced ears and prefer dainty or minimal designs.
*Disney trading pins - I made an impulse buy at an estate sale - and bought over 300 different official trading pins. Fun fact: I've never visited a Disney Park. LOL, I guess I better book a trip!
Fave characters: Dumbo, Little Mermaid, Lilo & Stitch (Elvis), Monsters Inc. I also like holiday themed pins.
Stocking stuffer swaps: I love these swaps and put quite a bit of time into finding the right gift and wrapping the gift nicely. I really like present presentation, it enhances the experience :)
*Postcard wish list: I enjoy images of water (ice, lakes, oceans, fog, steam, beaches, rain, waterfalls), clouds, black & white and cinema/TV. I like odd and quirky cards and I don't mind offensive cards.
DISLIKES:
*reward stickers/toddler type stickers
*Tea
*cinnamon
*cigarette/smoke smell
*Zombies
Some of my favorite shows...The Office, Kath and Kim, The IT Crowd, Outlander, Resident Alien, Parks and Rec, Arrested Development, Ghosts, Seinfeld
Currently re-watching: The Middle.
Currently bingeing: Roswell New Mexico
I love great movies.....I've watched the AFA Top 100 movies of all time (checked off of the bucket list!).
I'm drawn to rewatching 1980's comedies, can't get enough of these: Back to the Future, Uncle Buck, Great Outdoors, Pee Wee's Big Adventure
PODCASTS: Conan OβBrien Needs A Friend, Smartless, The Office Ladies, Buddhist Bootcamp, Life is Short
I love libraries! Most of the books I read come from my local libraries or Little Libraries.
Currently Iβm devouring books by Liane Moriarty. I like a mix of authors and genres.

Cheryl, thank you for the vintage 1965 Dennison "Fun with Crafts" booklet for WIYM Stuff the Stocking July swap. I love it! I will happily add this to my collection of vintage craft booklets. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Bonnie
Opened your present from Small Stocking Stuffer Feb 2019. The bead treasure (little purse) is so cute. I know exactly what I am going to do with it. Thank you
Hi, I see you turtles and animal postcards, so I was wondering if you'd be interested in joining my Scales 'n' Tails group? We currently have a turtle ATC & a dragon postcard swap on the go.
Welcome to Cold Hands Warm Hearts! It's great to have you here!
Blessings,
Yvonne
