Hi, I'm Reina, a thirty-something year-old living in southern California. Most of my time is consumed by my three little girls and husband, so I like to do a little crafting (and swapping) to keep myself sane.

I love all things PAPER, and also vintage fabrics and old buttons, and unique ephemera, especially stuff from the 1940's and 50's.

Any shade of BLUE is wonderful. Red is good, too.

I find the ocean awesome and inspiring, and dream of owning a beach house someday.

I collect sheep for some odd reason.

Creative writing and journaling are my thing. I have a million notebooks and pens, and always want MORE.

I ADORE my morning coffee, and any practically any treat with refined sugar (except for black licorice---ick!). Herbal teas are lovely, too.

I'm vegetarian. I don't like leather. I find farm animals charming.

Basically, anything released from 1980 to 1988 (yes, I'm a gigantic eighties geek).

On the more modern side, I enjoy Jack Johnson, Jason Mraz, John Maher, and Sheryl Crow.

Better Off Dead, Say Anything, Dead Poet's Society, Much Ado About Nothing, The Princess Bride, Gross Pointe Blank, , Napoleon Dynamite, Crash, The Royal Tennenbaums.

House, Campus Ladies (ridiculously hilarious), What's Happening, I Love Lucy, and any of the wacky Sid & Marty Krofft shows.

I LOVE to make my own paper by hand. It's time-intensive, but therapeutic. I dabble in bookbinding, too, along with making tags, cards and such. I've also just discovered the joys of ATC's. I love any old images or fabric or odd little things that can be used on ATC's or other crafty endeavors.
