Hello World!
I'm Andrea
Sole Proprietor of acorns+hand-me-downs
I run an Etsy Shop and Patreon blog about fashion in homage of the color fairy books and other fairytales. I'm also a personal shopper specializing in Thrift Grabbing + Bargain Hunting, and can be hired through Guru. On the side I computer program, grow houseplants, and write poetry. I have made a few things in Python which can be found on my Replit. I have made a few fun things in HTML/CSS/JS which can be found on my codepen.

The Ant and the Seed
She walked
with a seed on her back.
The crack in the sidewalk
was too deep.
She dropped the seed
and found another path.
When she came back
the seed was still there.
While my first novel may always be a work in progress, I have a love for creative writing. My animal poetry strives to capture unique perspectives and behaviors of animals. The poems cover a range of animal subjects and themes, from the perspective of different animal characters. The writing style is whimsical and imaginative, with a focus on vivid imagery and unique narratives.
