About Me

I'm happily married with the love of my life and live together with my hubby and twin sons (18 years old) in the tiny country called the Netherlands.

Favorite Crafts

I love my sewing machine and try to make as many different things as possible. Currently I'm very much into dolls of all kinds, so they will be very welcome.

Also I knit like crazy = every day atleast 2 hours.

I always make my own Christmas decorations and give them to my family and friends together with the Christmas card.

Favorite Music

I listen to all kind of music but I don't like techno, rap, punk, hardrock, goth etc.

I collect

I have a few collections:

  • keychains from different countries
  • used postage stamps from different countries
  • Christmas related items
  • postcards from different countries

Dislikes

I do not wish to receive food of any kind as I have several allergies. Also I am not into scrapbooking or other paper arts, so material for this will be wasted on me. Also pens, pencils, writing paper and such is a waste to send as I don't use that.

Wishlist

From what I saw on swapbot so far, I would love to receive:

  • dotee dolls
  • art dolls
  • otherwise altered dolls
  • handmade stuffies (like my fav. animals)
  • kawai food with face stuffies

And ofcourse KEYCHAINS and USED POSTAGE STAMPS.

Animals

I really adore animals; I have a little zoo here at home! 6 cats, 3 dogs, rabbits, Shetland ponies (the small ones), goats and sheep. Also I like wild animals such as deer, fawn, owl, hedgehog, squirrel, beaver, colorful birds

Colors

I like happy colors; yellow, orange, red, pink, purple, light blue, light green, silver, gold. Also in some occasions black or brown can be wonderful too.

Colorcombo's I like: brown + gold, light blue + purple, pink + yellow

Important

I live in a tiny village and the postoffice here can be slow at times. Please allow some extra time for my packages to arrive because sending overseas can take up to 3-4 weeks... (how frustrating).

Comment: Sent an email, before sending my part of the swap, and told her that I didn't want her to flake because it would be impossible to find an angel. She replied to that email & that was the last I heard from her. I sent her a great package & she better be enjoying it, because that's the last she'll get from me! I wish I could leave a "0" instead of a "1"!!

Comment: I really hate to do this, but I have to rate this swap as a 1. I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANYTHING FROM YOU, not even a single message. If you make good on this swap, I will gladly change your rating.

Comment: I am really, really disappointed. This is the first time that somebody flakes on me and what makes me more mad is that this was a higher value swap. You hit the sent button on the 29th of May and up to this day, nothing showed up. I know that mail can be slow, but this is mainland Europe. Really, really disappointed. In the unlikely event that something changes, I will change my rating.

Comment: Sorry to leave a negative rating as she marked as sent but looks like for whatever reason orangesugarplum's swaps are not getting to their partners (hope everything is ok). Of course I'll change this if a package arrives

Comment: I never got anything. I sent a HUGE package to her from the USA to the Netherlands which cost a lot to send, too. She is probably laughing right now!

If it was lost in the post , I am sorry, but it has been 2 months scince the send by date and I havn't recieved this, nor have I had an answer from my pm regarding this matter. I will change the rating if I recieve.

Hello there! I am still waiting for the A-Z Scavenger swap and so far nothing! I see that you have hit "sent" on the 29th of May so as this is European, I guess it would have arrived ages ago. I was really looking forward to this one, so as you haven't answered to my PM and haven't logged for quite a while, I sincerely hope that things are ok with you. Give me a shout because if nothing changes, I will have to rate you poorly!
mommieof3boyz on Jul 14, 2008:

I am still waiting for the reuseable tote bags to show up. I can't imagine that the parcel would take months to arrive. I'd HATE to give you a bad rating, as it would be the first ever that I have posted. I have send you a few emails, but you haven't responded. What's wrong? Please contact me, so that I don't have to rate you badly. ~~Brenda~~

Hello- how long might uk shipping take? you sent to me for the woodland swap but nothing has arrived and you marked as sent 6 weeks ago....do you think you could check with your post office? thank you
JennieMaeD on May 30, 2008:

Hi there. Just wanted to let you know that I've sent out your totes for the Store-bought reusable grocery bags swap. They are coming from Canada, I hope it doesn't take too long for shipping.
