WOYWW


I haven't 'got very much thinking' over the last few days so my desk is rather full of half-done unfinished bits and bobs.  It happens with the M.E. sometimes, hopefully it'll clear soon. 

 
And bang smack in the middle of the work surface is a parcel that arrived today.  (Things That Shine if you are interested.)  I was posted in December, full of Christmas goodies, which I won't share today as some of you are allergic to the C word at this time of year!  :)

There is a lot of wide eyed sitting and staring going on, but I aim to grab the few titbits of energy that come my way and pop over look at your desks.

    I think we all have times when Mojo goes on holiday. Hope yours comes back with his batteries recharged really soon.
    Have a fun week Laura.

      It always seems to take an age to get from Canada to UK! x

    What a great desk, Laura. C things!! I'm not allergic to that - only to fruit! Those fantastic piles of tapes - love the storage of them all - and is that a photo of jars of marmalade???
    Take care. God bless.

    Ok so why has this parcel taken so long to get to you? This is one thing I am proud to say I am NOT ALLERGIC TOO I love Christmas all year round and Christmas isn't long enough for me. I have a friend who would agree with me too. Share what's in the parcel please.

    Hugs Eliza & Yoda 64

      It came from Canada to the UK - maybe it stopped off for a holiday on it's way?! I'll be sure to share the contents next Wednesday x

    Hi, Laura, your desk looks full of possibilities. I like your layout in another post, with the star-printed acetate. I love the look of them, but could never think how to use them (other than cool pages in minibooks, maybe.) But I like the subtle white & clear on the white cardstock. I sometimes like having things in progress sitting out. Even if you do just stare at a few minutes here and there, sometimes the next step will pop into mind. Happy WOYWW and thanks for your visit! ~ Laura #53

    I love your desk! I can see some scrapbook pages in the making and a photo of marmalade or jam just waiting to be scrapped. I also like you tool block and the way you store your washi tape. I'm getting so many tapes I should be thinking of where to store them now.
    Thanks for visiting earlier in the week.
    Have a great weekend and CU Wednesday,

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

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

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
