Hi! I’m April 🌸 I’m a creative, cozy-living mama from Georgia who loves books, walking trails with my dogs, making handmade pet accessories with my daughter, and finding joy in slow, thoughtful hobbies.

I originally joined Swap-Bot when my daughter was an infant, now she’s a middle-schooler, and I’m rediscovering all the small creative pleasures that used to light me up. Swapping feels like a sweet return to myself.

Mail From Me

I send mail with love, care, and a cozy touch. Expect little bits of warmth, washi, stickers, cute paper bits, and sometimes something handmade. I’m reliable and communicative; if anything ever delays a swap, I always message.

Thank you for swapping with me! I truly enjoy these tiny, thoughtful connections. If my mail brightens your day even a little, that means everything to me. 🌿💛

🐾 Running a little handmade pet accessories brand with my daughter

🌿 Working part-time at a local eco-refill shop

🏞️ Walking daily for clarity + creativity

✂️ Leaning back into analog hobbies: crafting, journaling, penpalling, swaps

I love soft, gentle routines, cozy aesthetics, and anything that makes life feel a little slower and sweeter.

I’m drawn to simple, thoughtful, lightweight swaps like:

Bookmarks (handmade or store-bought)

Cute stationery

Washi samples

Ephemera for journaling

Cozy or seasonal vibes

Dog-themed anything

Nature-inspired items (pressed leaves, florals, patterns)

Doodles, mini collages, flat mail crafts

Aesthetic & Style Preferences

🌸 Soft, cozy, warm tones

🍂 Autumn vibes

✨ Cottagecore / cozycore / bookish

🐶 Whimsical dog motifs

🌙 Soft vintage, botanicals, neutrals, pastels

💌 Anything that feels handmade, heartfelt, or intentional

I prefer fruit-flavored teas and enjoy herbal, black, rooibos, green, and white teas. However, please no Lipton brand teas.

(Not a big deal if included — just sharing tastes!)

Very bold/neon colors

Religious items

Strongly scented items (I’m sensitive to certain scents)

Loose glitter
