About Me

Hello! My name is Trisha. I live on a small produce farm in rural Indiana with my boyfriend. It keeps us busy! I love to spend my spare time making things, reading, thrifting, researching genealogy, and swapping.

I'm also an animal lover. We have a beagle/rott mix named Tonto and a black cat named Cleo.

I've made a lengthy interest and wish list ... not because I'm demanding or picky ... but because I think it's easier as a swapper to have lots of things to choose from that you know your partner will enjoy.

Things I have a special interest in:

  • mushrooms
  • elephants
  • turtles
  • lemurs
  • art and artists
  • trees
  • gnomes
  • hot air balloons
  • trolleys and street cars
  • typewriters
  • vintage phones
  • paisley patterns
  • VW vans
  • cranes and herons
  • circus, fair, festival themes
  • herbs, vegetables, gardening, farm
  • tomatoes and corn (our main crops)
  • black cats
  • books/libraries
  • dragonflies
  • hula hooping
  • moon, stars, galaxy
  • roller skates
  • Art Deco
  • 1800s to 1920s
  • Alice in Wonderland (not Disney)
  • women (faces or full body)
  • mythology
  • 90s grunge
  • fairy tales
  • vintage Halloween
  • weird things, unique images

Wishlist:

  • Stationery etc printed with misinterpretations
  • zines
  • vellum stickers
  • stencils or masks
  • henna stencils (esp. a hand shape)
  • embellishments
  • foreign currency
  • punchinella
  • gemstones
  • unused postage any denomination esp older
  • waxed linen thread
  • interesting papers/images for art journaling
  • vintage photos
  • glue dots
  • postcards (see below)
  • embossing powders
  • anagram magic square word puzzles

Postcards * anything listed above (non tourist preferred) * art cards * greetings from (large letter) * nature/beautiful views * street scenes * handmade * women

  • I love it when you add your favorite quote or tell me about your day, your pets, book/movie/music recommendations, your dreams, secrets, or anything else you want to say!

Colors:

  • I love all colors for crafting and paper projects
  • I love love love earth tones
  • I also love purple and turquoise

Favorite Crafts

Over the years I've dabbled in a lot of things. Tie dyes, sewing, wood signs, rubber stamp carving, jewelry making, crochet. But I've been obsessed with paper since I was a small child. It's the one thing I always come back to.

Favorite Music

I love all sorts of music. I bounce around many genres.

Favorite Movies

Beautiful Losers, The Sixties Movie, Little Miss Sunshine, Pirate Radio, Empire Records, Almost Famous, haven't watched many new movies

Favorite Television

I also love SARKs books and the Travis McGee series by John D. MacDonald. New favorite: Luke Smitherd

Podcasts

I love listening to podcasts while I work on the farm or make crafts. My favorite genre is first person true stories, but I'll take any recommendations. I love The Moth, This American Life, Snap Judgement, Spooked, Jim Harold's Campfire, The Kitchen Sisters, Criminal, Beautiful Anonymous, S Town
