i'm IT

i've been tagged by lena. i'm not entirely sure what it means but fortunately she posted the rules and procedure so i know what to do...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog.
2. Share 5 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 5 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. i did most of my 'growing up' (ha) in rural novelty, ohio. i often credit the lack of *novelty* there with becoming a creative person.
2. i have had nearly every kind of (relatively common) pet, without venturing too deeply into the reptile category: dogs, cats, mice, gerbils, hamsters, a guinea pig, rabbits, turtles, shrimp, chicks (never made it to chickens though), fish, frogs, salamanders, crayfish, toads, sea monkeys, a parakeet, a pony, and a horse.
3. i rarely sketch or plan things out before i make them. usually i just start cutting, sewing, printing, embroidering, crocheting... and whatever else it takes until it's done! often the end result is completely different than what i expected. i love that.
4. i've been making things and selling them since i was a little girl. my sister and i used to paint rocks and take them door to door in our wagon. sometimes people would give us money but not want a rock. my mom was mortified that we did this.
5. i have no favorite color. i think every color is the best color for something. the only color i dislike is black.

i tag: kayte, alisa, kim, amylou and kaitlyn.
