ANSWERS TO 20 QUESTIONS - Parasols, Pink Lemonade, & Polka Dots Swap

HERE ARE THE ANSWERS TO MY 20 QUESTIONS
FOR THE PARASOLS, PINK LEMONADE & POLKA
DOTS SWAP - - - - - - -



Parasol Mosiac for Sweet Goodness Swap


1. What is your favorite Summer Drink(s)? - I LOVE pink lemonade. For some reason it quenches me more than regular lemonade, even though they're really the same thing. I also like sun tea after it's brewed all day and then poured over ice.

2. What is your favorite Summer Activity? Gardening. I love to have my hands in the dirt!!!

3. If you could spend a lazy afternoon reading, what would be in your hands? Currently it would be any craft book on altered art.

4. What is your favorite type of craft/art medium? I can't say that I have a favorite, I love them all, jewelry making, home improvement, vintage art creations, but I guess I would have to say, altering books and other objects right now.

5. What is one art/craft supply you absolutely have been dying to have or try? This may sound odd, but I have never tried working on any type of canvas. I've really been anxious to buy a small canvas and paint something but I have no craft stores around here that sell them.

6. What are your favorite colors in our 'rainbow sherbet' theme? Pink, lime green, yellow, orange, aqua (or blue) - In this theme it would be aqua and blue. Outside this theme it is green, purple, and black.

7. What is your favorite sweet treat? I'm addicted to Necco wafers. Especially the orange and brown ones.

8. Are there any craft or art supplies you would NOT be interested in receiving? No, I love them all.

9. What is your favorite song today? Actually, today I was listening to Bob Marley's "Jammin" while I was working out. If you mean pop music and here and now, anything by the PussyCat Dolls.

10. How do you 'pamper' yourself during the hot summer days? I like to lay in the pool on my floatie chair with a wine cooler and one of those little paper umbrellas in it, while reading craft books.

11. Do you have any kidlets or pets? I have a 15-year-old son (the light of my life) and an angora Siamese cat, who is 14 years old. ( I love the term kidlets - never heard that one before).

12. What is your best potluck dish for summer get togethers? It might not be considered a dish really, but I love to make a Waldorf Salad to bring to potlucks and recently I've been taking them for lunch while trying to lose weight. They're cool, tasty and healthy.

13. If you could take a summer vacation anywhere, where would it be? To the coast of Oregon, Brookings Oregon, to lay on the beach.

14. Describe your decorating style. Does that say anything about your personality? Very eclectic. A little of this and a little of that. One thing I have a lot of is marble. I love marble table tops and counter tops and pretty much anything marble. Maybe that means I'm hard and cold *grin*, or maybe it means I have expensive taste.

15. What are your initials? KDM

16. Why do you like to join swaps? I like meeting new people, shopping, creating things to share, and getting stuff in the mail from the actual post man, not the virtual post man.

17. You have 25 dollars to spend just on you for a little treat. What do you buy? ((you can list more than one thing) - a quarter of a tank of gas - just kidding - I would buy art supplies and photo paper and any and all thrift store finds. I love thrift store finds that you can incorporate into art or make into a great piece of furniture.

18. What's one craft supply or art supply you absolutely can not live without? I cannot live without gel medium lately. I love that stuff.

19. Who's the last person you hugged? That's easy - my son - 3 minutes ago.

20. What's your favorite number and why? I have always loved the number 13. I have the best days on Friday the 13th and most numbers with a 3 in it, seem to be really great for me.


To my partner - I hope any of this helps you. I will be stopping by to read yours when you have it up. Looking forward to getting to know you.
