My wish is to turn my eBay selling into a full time job and get out of the factory work force. I love making handmade items, such as baby blankets, afghans, crocheted, & sewn items. Everything handmade has a little love and time into it. Enjoy!

I sell fabrics, either brand new or from my stash, handmade items, recycled items that are still useful that I no longer need. I sell craft items that I bought in large quantities and no longer need. I also sell recycled items that are just too good to throw away. Someones junk is another's treasure or just plain good deal.

I buy Newfoundland Dog items, books and gifts for my kids and grandkids that are new.

My hubby will say that I collect everything. I do have a hard time parting with some items, but love fabrics, Newfoundland dog items and Precious Moments. My house just collects dust and dirt....LOL

My hobbies are sewing, crocheting, beading, gardening (in season) and yard work, and spending time with my black Newfoundlands.

My favorite books deal with dogs, mostly Newfoundlands. I love the book Where the Red Fern Grows and In the Company of Newfies, Old Yeller and books like that.

My favorite movies are Forrest Gump, Gone with the Wind.

My favorite music is country music, and of course our local station B-93.

I am too busy to watch TV, I mostly spend time on my favorite hobbies and training my newfoundlands, and trying to get my eBay business to be my full time job.

I would love to email people that own a Newfie, either Landseer or Black, Brown, whatever. I own two, one is mix with black lab & Rott, and my male is AKC Black Newfie. I am getting him tested for breeding to lift his limited registration in Nov-2009. We want to try to breed him. He is such a docile dog, big, beautiful and a baby.

I started in the crafting business when my sister and I went to craft shows. I love to make things with my hands, so there is a variety of items for sale on my listings. I don't like to watch TV very much, so while hubby watches TV, I work on some sort of project by the kitchen table or in my craft room or I work out in the yard and also do lots of training of our Newfoundlands.

I accept Paypal (preferred) MO, no personal checks.

I usually ship within 2-3 days, depending on if there is a holiday in there or not. I must have receipt of payment, then I email letting you know when I plan to ship. I gladly combine shipping if paid for on ONE invoice. If you pay for one item and win another, your combined shipping is void. I get double the paypal fees if paid for with multiple payments. Sorry, just the way it goes sometimes. So wait for a combined invoice for me to adjust the shipping. You can always request payment total with a message and I will get it out to you. Be patient, I do work full time at a local factory.

Most of my stuff is not returnable, although if I have grossly misdescribed my item, I always try to make sure the customer is satisfied with their buying experience with Spare Time Treasures. Always let me know if there is a problem first before leaving negative feedback so we can reach an agreeable outcome.

Please email sparetime@altelco.net with any questions or concerns on any of my listings either on auction or my eBay store.

I absolutely love fabrics. I have a wonderful supplier that gives me good deals. I then can pass those good deals to my customers. I try to keep selling costs down but in this day and age, we all need to make a buck or two. So please know that I do start out as low as I canand still make a little something for the price of the listing and the other items that incurr expense.

I hope that when you send detailed selling ratings, you keep in mind that there is cost for printing labels, purchasing envelopes, paper, and ink. I put all of my items in plastic bags to protect them in case if ill treatment with the USPS. I have no idea how they treat the packages that I try to send, so I give them a little more protection with tape and plastic bags. Remember that these items do cost some money to the seller and that is included in the shipping price. Look at the price on your package and what was charged to you.....9 out of 10 times it should be real close with me.....I do not believe in making money on shipping like some ebay sellers do.
