WOYWW 245


And now for the desky post!  (second post today... what's going on?!)

Happy WOYWW!  Here is my desk as it was left yesterday with today's post (jewellery findings) plonked on top. 


I have been making samples this week but I can't share any as the products are yet to be released.  Baby wipes, gesso, buttons, KO thread, hedgehog paperclips, off cuts.  Oh yes, there's a sneak of the floppy disk album that got pushed aside for the sample-making.  Really could do with some tidying and structure rather than the semi circle of stuff around the cutting mat.  It won't happen today as I will be mostly looking at desks!

Happy Wednesday!!

  4. oh wow! you're making a floppy disk album - what a coincidence, because I just scrounged some of those from my son, thinking if they're no good to him any more, I could maybe make a mini book with them .... Great minds and all that :o) Happy WOYWW Annie C #67

  11. Hi Laura,

    My eyes immediately went to the towers of washi tape! I love seeing all the colors that you have. The hedgehog paperclips are adorable!! Hmm, a floppy disc book? We'll have to see that!

    Thank you for visiting me already.

  12. I think when we're creating, we all just put everything around us until we run out of space. Or anyway, I know I do it. Your desk is looking like a fun place to create, with lots of great things in reach to play with, like all that wonderful washi tape!

  13. I thought for sure I'd been here and left a comment from Wednesday's blog hop, but it looks like I failed to stop by. I like how you referred to the items on your desk as a semi-circle of stuff around the cutting mat. Happy belated WOYWW from #1. And of course, I look forward to seeing that floppy disk book come together, too.

Hello, Happy Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday !  As promised a picture of last Wednesdays 'work' finished off.  Post and more photos here . This week I'm showing off the beaded ATC I made... Tricky to photograph so your getting one with flash and one without... It was all parcelled up and sent off to Queen of Desks Julia .  Here is a basic of how it was made... (lots of waffle about wefts and warps!) I use a flexible beading needle.  It is mainly 'eye' so it is very easy to thread. And delica beads which are more regular and accurate than the better known seed bead.  They are slightly more rectangular than round so they line up better. Thread your needle with the weft thread.  (The cross ways thread that weaves back and forth.)  Pick up the beads... Pass the needlefull of beads underneath the warp (tight length ways) threads on the loom... ...and push each bead u...

Hoppity!

Hoppity hoppity!!  :) Hopeful you have arrived here from Fleur 's blog as part of the Crafty Ribbons Easter Hop .  If not and you've found yourself here wondering what on earth I'm on about (and let’s face it J you wouldn’t be the first!!) check out the Inspirations site for all the juicy details! My project for the hop is         Easter bunting!  I cut three templates first - a triangle pennant, a bird and a heart.        Then I cut the pennant shapes from fibre ribbon, threaded them on to some 3mm satin and evenly spaced them.  I embellished each flag with some beads...       I backed the birds and heart on some thin white card and glued them to the centre of the pennants.   My supplies list: yellow fibre , pink fibre , lime fibre , 3mm satin , button box , white card, glue, beads, needle and thread.   ...

Feathered Friends

A few feathered smiles for today! I love this little chicks tatty tail.  I can imagine it was packed in the nest and the long tail feathers got in the way a bit!! And our handsome robin... Two smiles for your Friday - Linking up at Friday Smiles :)
