Hello! I'm Darci from Norman, Oklahoma, USA. I'm 35, an artist, married, and homeschooling three kids. I have my BFA in Formation Art, focusing on fiber. Felting is my favorite art form to do, and I am currently working on a series of felted wool marionette puppets. I also love to sew and work with paper, usually combining the two. Many of the things I make are dolls, the creepier the better, in my opinion. I make fabric stuffed animals that I sell at arts festivals and shows and in a few local stores. I love to read. I am always reading or listening to a book. I love monsters, skeletons, vampires, and zombies. My favorite colors are pretty much anything that isn't pastel. I try to reuse packing materials and I have two cats and two dogs. I will do my best to keep their hair out of everything, but sometimes it just finds its way in. I will not flake, and usually send my items before the swap date. If something doesn't show up, please let me know! I really appreciate ratings. It sucks to spend time and thought making something and never even find out if it was received.
I've been busy with doll-making and shows lately so I haven't been doing as much on swap-bot, but I promise I'm still around.

Please no religious, homophobic, or political things. I am allergic to all tree nuts (edible and in skin care products) and paprika (although I can't see why anyone would send paprika). I do not like Disney or other commercial-type characters (like Dora, Elmo, etc.)
