WOYWW - 481 -22.8.18- what a mess...
Good morning crafty friends! I hope this week is a good one for you. If you would like to do some sharing, of the desk variety please head over to the hub of activity.
So yes, been a rough week at this end but at least I've done some crafty. I start with a clear desk and end with a 2x2 space to work in. I never learn.
So left to right; handmade rosettes for gifts, potion bottle for my halloween goodie bags k haven't started yet. Handmade little decorated flag to give as embellishments for the recipients to use. New mega glittery pencil case I filled with washi. Cuppa, rainbow post it notes, more flags and I think that's it.
New bucket for smaller scraps on the left. I use these scraps for the flags and rosettes.
Big shot plus with a box I decorated and filled with mini rosettes at a gift.
So, yep, that's my desk for this week, thank you so much for spending some of your day with me.

DeleteYou're a girl after my own heart - a mega glittery pencil case sounds just the ticket!! Everything looks very fresh and pretty on your desk today, even if you are working in the smallest of space in the centre!

DeleteHI again Ellie. Oh yes, Hubby is an enabler Extraordinaire! Well known for it amongst the WOYWWers, lol. I do know most crafters would kill to have a Hubby like that. It actually all started after I had my bowel surgery back in 2015. I've been crafting for about 15 years,and often went to craft shows and suchlike, on my own. Hubby would have some quiet gaming time, lol. Then, when I came out of hospital, I wanted to go to the next Hobbycrafts show in Birmingham, but Hubby was really worried that I might faint/fall/get worn out, so he said he'd come with me. He actually enjoyed himself, getting to know the crafters I knew, and the company owners I knew, then paying a lot of attention to the products. Thats when he started pointing out stuff he liked, that he thought I'd like too. Now, when we go to a craft store etc, I have to watch HIM like a hawk- stuff ends up in my basket all the time.Shopping with him, I am totally spending way more than I ever did on my own. What a problem to have, eh? Love & Hugs, Shaz X
ReplyDeleteThat's amazing!!! I've taken my other half to craft shows before and at some points he looked like the ground could swallow him up hahaha xxx
DeleteLove,love,love the rosettes! Gorgeous pencil case as well :-) I have been covered in glitter this evening, my granddaughter who loves all things pink, shiny and glittery gave me a 'make over' - she is eight. :-) Anne x #7
ReplyDeleteThat sounds amazing Anne! Would love to see it hahahah xxx
DeleteSorry to be late Ellie, and more sorry to read that you've had a difficult week. It's pants being a grown up sometimes isn't it. Your desk is a symphony of pastels, everything matches, even your mug, erm, unicorn, erm mug....! Love that you're gathering stuff like potion bottles but haven't actually started anything yet...I like a display of intent!
ReplyDeleteHahah thank youuu. Yes it's pastel crazy at the minute xxx
DeleteWow - that's a lot of rosettes! What a great way to use up scarps, and to have them handy and ready-made when you need them! Love the unicorn tea cup! Thanks for sharing, have a great week! Lindart #27
