WOYWW 222


I haven't been very organised this WOYWW - no photo taken last night so I could link up early.  There was nothing on my desk last night and I was pooped!  This week I've had an enormous clear out/sort/purge/reorganise.  It occurred to me this morning that last week I showed you Christmas cards that I was working on rather unenthusiastically... Did I really put off making Christmas cards to tidy?  That can't be true.  I procrastinate, sure, of course I do, but putting things off to tidy?!  That is just crazy!!  It's usually put tidying off to do anything else!!

Anyway today's desk is pretty much the same as last week.  Christmas cards in the making.  Then I was joined by a 'helper' and everything was hastily swept side so she could have a run around on the cutting mat.


A face as bright as the sun :)


Can anyone help me?  As I went to crop and add my name to these photos I discovered the edit button on the photo section of google+ has gone.  Is it just me or has anyone else discovered this?  Also, how do you add your name to your photos?  What programme do you edit them with?  And most importantly, is it easy?!

Have a good week lovely desk hoppers!

    Awwww I love your little helper.
    I'm sorry I didn't get round to visit last week....life sort of got in the way. I struggled to find the time to do all the things I needed to do let alone the things I wanted to do :-)

WOYWW 159

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.   ...
