Time for that little bit of fun and nosiness that is What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday, brainchild of Julia and her Stamping Ground BLOG - click the link to find out all about how it works and join in the Great Big Workdesk Hop!
My desk is a bit of a dumping ground atm. I didn't do any crafting yesterday but over the few days before that I was busy with making stuff for a mini cyber crop on Bubbly Funk's forum. A lot of the regular participants were away on a crafting retreat so those who were left got together and found lots of interesting links and "classes" to share. On my desk you can see some of the things I made, plus of course the still unfinished concertina minibook which I really must make an effort and do some covers for. You can check out the individual "makes" on the last few posts I've made. The post below this one also has the tutorial for the cheque/gift card wallet I promised I'd share, so please have a look at that too.
Anyway, here's my Wednesday Mess for this week - I'll keep the pics small on here, but click on them for a closer look at the disarray!
Just for a laugh, I thought I'd also show you the desk on the other side of our study - this is my hubby's desk - as you can see, we don't share the same mind-set when it comes to desks - why on earth would you have a great big desk nearly the size of a single bed and not actually use the surface for your stuff? Just look at the multi-coloured mini post it note pads lined up by the in-tray hehehe.
My computer desk is to the left of his desk. My Craft Robo sits on the corner of my pc desk and when I need to use it I usually have to shift a pile of papers from in front of it - so I tend to colonise the corner of his desk too

Our study is a lovely light room, as well as the window you can see on the photo there's a bigger window to the right of my craft desk - it's never in the photos I do of my desk because I'd be taking them right into the light and my desk wouldn't show up.
Anyway, enough of the waffle. Today I'm going to clear all those finished and half finished projects off the desk and get some cutting and sticking done.
Thanks for visiting, I hope you come by again soon.
I love your desk! My desk is actually in our bedroom and drives my hubby up the wall!

Mmmm ... looking at hubby's desk somedays must be like torture ... I mean when you run out of space and wanna run up a quick card ... I could see me getting into a whole lot of trouble if he was my hubby :0)
ReplyDeleteI do love your space ... always full of lovely things ... I may pop in one day and ... erm ... use hubbies desk while we play :0)
I know which desk I prefer Kathy. :) Lovely to see your fabby creations in the making. I had to enlarge to look for your spice rack! I didn't know you had one! Great minds... perhaps I should wear my specs when I blog hop! hehe..xx
ReplyDeleteYour desk has more character than your hubby's. You are just much more creative. Great space :)

ReplyDeleteGreat desk. Lots to see and be inspired by. And you have so much room to craft in. I'm not being sarcastic; you can see your cutting mat, so you have room to work! Thanks for sharing.

ReplyDeleteCor - do you have a line on the carpet over which he will not step!! Amazing contrast Kathy, love the peep into your daily life!

Oh dear Kathy, you're hubby gets a D- must try harder. Glad to see you are keeping the study in a colourful mess xx
ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I love it when my craft area is tidy but saying that I find I am much more creative when it's messy. Your hubby's desk must therefore be tidy because he is not as creative as you ;-)
