WOYWW 265


My desk this week looks like this...


A reel of my ribbon, a pile of triangles...

There is evidence someone has been playing with my dymo...


...and I might know their name!

And a bucket of half made mixed media cards with positive messages for a deck swap...


Actually, I'll give you all the address to check out the swap as some of the WOYWWers may like to join us...  carddeckswap.com

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you at your desk :)

  2. Well that looks very organised! Thank you for the idea about donating the stash to the hospice etc. We have a place near here called Naomi House which cares for children and they do lots of crafts with the siblings that are coping with bereavement and we often raise funds for them too. #26

  4. A lovely colourful and organised desk, Laura. I like the idea of your little cards with the positive messages. Thanks for your visit and nice comment - glad you like my album. Thanks for the advice about the VitC. I'm on a multivitamin but not specifically C!

    Happy WOYWW,

    1. Dymo is a brand of label maker. You can get different coloured plastic-y tapes and punch any words or messages that you like. Not an essential but very handy to have and fun to use!

  12. Hi Laura,

    Great job on the deck swap. I love collecting quotes. Ah, the evidence of someone using the label maker cracked me up! When I was a kid I used to carve all the soap in the house!!! Tee hee

    Happy belated WOYWW

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.   At each stop on the hop there'll be a word to collect and a candy draw. I've got these

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 up in the corresponding g

WOYWW & Card Deck Swap

First up is my desk ... Hmm.  Perhaps the less said the better!  I really should have a sort out but I fancy desking instead! Next I want to share my card deck swaps (deskers don't have to stay for this bit but I reckon you'd enjoy joining in with us, which is why I'm including it in this post) You can read about the swap here on Jessica's blog and sign up here .  Basically, we take a deck of cards, add paint and/or paper, then add a positive sentiment to each card.  Post them to Jessica who shuffles them and sends back 52 different cards from different artists (yes, you are an artist!) from all over the world. These few are ones I have picked out to display first.  I'll swap them round after a few weeks.  Do you like my domino pegs?  :) Thanks for stopping by.  I hope you'll at least consider joining us for the card swap - it's like a super sized ATC swap, and all WOYWW er's know they are fun! See you at your desk x
