Hiya everyone! I'm T! I live in Georgia (USA) with my husband and 2 kidlets. I'm a high school Spanish teacher who crafts to keep her sanity.

I am not picky about size nor shape of hoop that you may send me. I have tons of info about my likes/dislikes in my profile as well as So You Want to Swap? page on my blog. I'm the chatty type so if you have any questions, feel free to send me a quick PM.

PLEASE, no profanity or sacriligious themes!

My Wist

My Shiny New Pinterest


My Themes
1. Celtic knotwork - pure knotwork, not zoomorphs (twisted animals/humans) which get kind of creepy

2. anything Japanese - My bathroom (done in taupe, cream and black accents) is decorated in a Japanese themes. Maybe something like a geisha, samurai, koi or kanji

3. something inspired by Hispanic cultures for decorating my classroom. For example, I already have a Flamenco dancer and a hoop with the Aztec sun god.   (Please no Day of the Dead stuff. My admins don't quite understand this concept so I have to be very careful about what I use.)

4. Nature - I LOVE trees and clouds, not so much into the cutesified animals though.

5. Garden gnomes - my newest addiction

6. Constellations - I love all of them. Thanks FeliciaSlayDCRG!...more of these would be cool! PM me to see which ones I have.

7. Mythological creatures - Pegasus, Dragon, Unicorn, Hydra

8. a Faery for my daughter's growing hoopla, a smallish size hoop (4"-6") would be preferable for this

9. My favorite quote - "Be the change that you want to see in the World." - M. Ghandi

10. a hummingbird, a hawk or a cardinal

11. a cat sleeping in an odd position...you'd have to see how my cat Raven sleeps...crazy furchild!

12. something related to Buddhism like a Buddha, Ohm, lotus (I LOVE this flower!)

13. something inspired by my Wist or Pinterest
