What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? 94


OEMMGEEEEE: I just completely forgot to add Mr Linky - canyou imagine how my life is with such a useless memory?! Sorry all, have rectified....! If you're returning to link - check the list, I've already done some!!

A dramatic and very satisfying return to form....oh yeah baby...my desk is cluttered, filthy and I am loving it! OK, maybe by lunchtime I'll be very fed up with it because I have to move on and kit thursdays workshop, but just now, I'm in my groove. Late into my groove though - I'm working on something for my sweet Sissy; it's her birthday on Friday. Yep, I am late because I have to get it in the post. And first class isn't going to cut it - she's in California. Gulp.

Anyway, enough of my postal timing dilemmas, show us your workdesk will ya? Doesn't have to be paper crafting, put a photo on your blog and link here, we'll pop in to see what you're up to.

Record numbers of desks last week - all of them massively interesting...it is really now impossible to visit and comment on every one. So, please continue to share your desk, revel in the comments and enjoy the hits you do get, but don't be feeling neglected, huh! Over the last week I did visit every desk, but spent no time at all browsing other daily blogs and posts..which I really miss - so I need to strike a balance...and I KNOW I have more time than you do.

And don't forget - week 104 is the second anniversary of WOYWW and we're having a teeny party by exchanging gifts with a linky neighbour - please read THIS post for details. OK then, onwards, and happy Wednesday!

Where's Mr Linky - has he left the building? When I saw your desk this morning my hands were itching to get at it cos my Ms Tidy head is on this week as you will see from my WOYWW post which is here: http://silverscrappers.blogspot.com/2011/03/woyww-93-nothing-doing-yet.html

Will check back later to see if Mr Linky has put in an appearance. Elizabeth x #? this week :)

MaggieC (Silvercrafter) said...

Glad to see Mr Linky has returned to us. I think he was just so busy studying all that wonderful stash on your desk this week. By the way, I am sorry, Julia, I seem to have linked twice this week - technical problems with an over keen mouse finger.

Anonymous said...

I posted!! I'll blop later as I'm off out!

Fallingladies said...

Hello, Can't believe how early this group is, It's only 7:00 am here and already 72 players... snow day here so I MAY have time to visit a few more desks this week!

RosA said...

Hi Julia, I feel right at home with your desk! Like your card thingy/present for your sister, nice style! I only have part time internet access so can't possibly get around to even half the list but I do enjoy seeing what I can!

Nancy Wethington said...

So hooked on WOYWW!

DottyA Cards & Things said...

A Beautiful clutter is so nice to have... and the card you created is just lovely... bet she LOVE's it!

Susanne said...

Very fun desk this week. Who makes that little stamp with the four birds on it? Do tell!

That was a goo lie in you gave him:) Love your desk, feels like home:)

Good lie in..stoopid!!

Shaz in Oz.CalligraphyCards said...

Somehow I am number 17 AS WELL AS number 19 this week but am sure I only did it once.. not to worry and, Julia, I popped back to tell you you were right in your guess they are pots of flock - new stash spent $70 when only mean to spend $30 never can quote figure how it happens till I remember - oh there was that great deal, bargain etc.. and strangely they all add up twice or three times as much as I think they should!!
only with craft mind you! am right on the money with other things..

WooHooOOoo! That's the "Julia desk" I like to see:) The card is looking fabu:) Happy bday to Sis - she shares my mama's bday.
Soooo many desks to visit!

Helen said...

Bless you Julia - thanks for adding me. Hope you didn't mind me emailing you to alert you. Course, now I'm going to work down the list and probably visit desks I went to already....
Realise now I didn't stop to leave a comment on the state of your desk - not that I am one to complain, as you know I kinda like it messy!

Jingle said...

Oh, this photo makes me smile! That canvas is looking fabulous!!! Can't wait to see that in more detail! Sounds like you are having LOTS of fun!

Tracy Blueberry Barn said...

Yeaaah Julia! Crafting chaos is what I love to see!

I think you deserve a medal for visiting everyone's desks and I really don't know how you do it! I visited lots last week but wasn't able to leave comments on many of them because I'm on Wordpress, not Blogger - and lots of Blogger people aren't set up to allow non-Blogger comments. Oh well, at least I went, I saw, just couldn't conquer!

Have a great week,
Tracy

lisa said...

Hi Julia
Your desk is looking wonderful. It feels great to be in the groove doesn't it? I love that circle of colourful pins, what are you using those for?
I don't know how you get round as many desks as you do. I start with all the regulars and then pick a few random numbers to see what other exciting things are out there. It is always wonderful to find someone new. There is so much talent in this world of ours.

You sound busy Julia. No need to stress about Mr Linky it all adds to the fun.

I always love looking at your desk. there is so much to look at it.

Kezzy said...

Absolutely loving the project on your desk, its gorgeous. Hope it gets there in time. Loving your jam packed desk lots of lurking inspiration.

MaggieC (Silvercrafter) said...

Would it be possible to ask everyone to turn off Word Verification to make it far quicker to get round everyone. I was guilty of having it on, until Shaz from Oz pointed it out to me. I did not realise till then that it was active. If you set your comments to wait for approval, it still protects the blogs from rubbish. I think we could all get round nearly twice as many blogs without having to get through the extra require by Word Verification. The "Less is More" contest blog has also requested that the Word Verification is turned off for that reason. Just a thought for everyone.
