I like the art of scrapbooking, but find it impossible due to an allergic reaction to glue and tape (Corn in the adhesive). It takes forever for glue to come off my body where it touched and it burns. It is particularly bad if it gets on my finger nails. It can take days to dissolve. Weirds my husband out because the same glue comes off easily from his hands and nails with soap and water. I don't even handle stamps (lickable or the ones that are basically stickers).

I also hate the feel of many materials, so the materials I can use for art projects is really limited.

My fingers are so sensitive, I can tell the exact percentage of materials in a piece of clothing without looking at the material just by feeling it and how/what kinds of pain my fingers are in.

I like the feel of my husband's facial whiskers (beard/mustach) and tend to play with them. Too bad he is mildly SPD and he doesn't like me playing with his whiskers.

Thats a bummer about the adhesive allergy--I am the same way with medical adhesives. The burn my skin, and I have to use rubbing alcohol to remove the residue.

My hands are sensitive, though not anywhere as sensitive as yours. My husband bought me a wonderfully warm, soft and heavy blanket that has satin edging on it (I love to "pick" at the satin--I like the way it feels between my fingernails.) But I don't use the blanket because I don't like the way the plush feels on my hands.
