for you

I told you last week that I was going to make you something.  And I am!  I don't know what it will be, and I don't know when I will send it to you, but I will make you something.

Here is what I need you to do:  email me at mytrashandtreasure@gmail(dot)com (don't be confused by that address, use an actual period there; just avoiding spammers).  That's it!  Just email me, tell me that you want something and leave me your address.  And please don't be shy.  If you would like some fun mail (for a change) then sign up.  And yes, if you are not in the US, I'll still send you something too.  I'll say it again.  PLEASE don't be shy.  I WANT to do this.

Why do I want to do this?  I love to make stuff.  That is just the truth.  I love to make stuff, it makes me happy, I love keeping my hands busy, and I would love to give you a gift for just being here right now. It probably won't be anything fancy, but I still want to give it to you.  I just like you a lot!  And having people to make stuff for will keep me on my goal to make at least one something a week.  So really, you're doing me a favor!

I am NOT doing this for promotion of any kind.  You don't have to follow me to get something.  This could be your first visit here, and I will still send you something.  You don't have to share my blog on Twitter, Facebook, or any other social network.  You don't even need to leave a comment.  This here blog is something I do for me, and I am not looking to build it up to make me money, or anything like that.  This is nothing but a gift to YOU from ME.

So email me.  Even if I just sent you something last week.  Even if I've known you all my life.  Even if I don't know you exist yet.  I'll put you on my list.  And then I'll start working through my list.  I may email you back with a question or two, and then I'll be working my way down the list.  So PLEASE.  Email me.  I know you're sitting there thinking, well, she probably doesn't mean ME.  YES I DO.

Thank you, friends.

*update* Thank you all for the overwhelming response!  I have loved every minute of making "somethings" for you all.  But I've closed the offer FOR NOW.  I am planning on opening an etsy shop in the Fall.  Thank you again!
