Good morning friends and happy WOYWW! It's so much fun seeing each others desks and taking part, visit the stamping ground to get involved. Thank you to everyone that visited my desk last week and left some lovely comments. Today I have an appointment so will probably visit other desks late afternoon. So here is my desk, very busy this week... My grimoire binding screws arrived, yay! I tried them out and they fit perfectly. In the background some finished atcs. Hole punch at the ready for my pages.  The inside back page of my grimoire so far. My huge mod podge pot. Love it! A selection of 12x12 pages I trimmed down for my book. Adore these, gorgeous florals and William Morris. Love his art <3 Coffee !  Using my gansai Tambi watercolours to make some pages that I can write over if I wish. My favourite watercolours, so much fun to play with. Start of a little embellishment use card board. Finished little embellishment....
