I took this photo yesterday, about
5.30pm. It was very hot sitting at the workdesk. This morning the room is in total shade and because I'm still in my nightie, I'm freezing! Contrasts. This morning the first job is to clear this desk - ready for me to begin chopping and counting stock for Thursday's workshops. When I say clear, I mean the area of my glass mat .....for in truth I'm half way through some more hearts to sell and I don't wanna put stuff away just to get it back out again! I think that's the theory behind push-back. Works for me!
Amongst the erm, stash, are two of my favourite stamps - both by Dawn Houser -(the ones I used on the tag shown yesterday - must be my fave all time designer in rubber. I think...I'm not unsure of my devotion, I just don't know if I can make the commitment of 'definitely' my favourite - I mean, what if I discovered another!! Don't ask me ever to do a list of my top 10 of anything will ya? You can clearly see the broken 'S' of the B wordI talked about last week, and good grief, one of the suitcases Jennie gave me has found it's way onto the desk...this probably signifies some sort of intent! Probably. There's also my pair of black non-stick teflon coated scissors. Love 'em. Loved them even more before I had the bright idea of sharpening them and so removed the tungsten coating from the blade edges. Foolish old woman. Still, they're nice and sharp!
We're waiting to see your work space please - photo it, upload it to your blog and use Mr Linky here to show us where - easy. Doesn't have to be papercrafts and it doesn't have to be a desk - just show us what you're working on, it's fascinating! See you in a minute or so then!

Wow, Julia you are REALLY early this week!! Have linked my desk (floorspace) for you!
You are so funny. I am still laughing over this post. I can't believe you are cold. Not sure how cold it gets there, but it's SUMMER, Julia. Here our nights are in the mid 70s F (not sure but think around 25C). If you're cold, I'll trade you places this summer.
Glad to see you are making more of those hearts. They are my favs. And what did we do before Crop-A-Diles? Happy WOYWW.
You are early! I would never dare approach that desk in my nightie as I would never end up getting dressed!

oh love that you are earlier today...I can post before I hit the pillow. Loved your hearts you have been making this week...I have some of the very same sentiments!
Yep, an address book specifically for my blogging friends! I just made it a day or so ago, and am quite pleased with it! As for ATC's, I actually don't have any of those...have never made one either. It's something I'd like to try, so perhaps that will be something to look for on my desk next week :)
Good morning early bird. Thats a very different desk you're showing us today. :-)

Love the hearts you made. Wish it was a little cooler here, I'm too hot LOL. Your desk looks very creative this morning and at least you are getting things done which is more than can be said for me. Have a great Wednesday, Tracy Evans x
Hearts are lovely. Glad to know I am not the only indecisive person....I too would not be able to create my faves list of anything never mind my rubber stamps lol....I am in the same town as Tracy Evans above and can vouch it is warm.....HAGD x

Good morning your bright and early today, I'm just on my way to work so will have a really good nosey when I get back ; I can browse whilst watching footy. Hugs Pam x

Love your desk this week Julia, lots of lovely creativity going on. Those hearts are fab, enjoy your day hun, love and hugs Heidi xx
good morning Julia - must say I am with you on the inking and messy stuff, not my idea of fun. But I am loving your hearts - they are gorgeous and inspiring and right now I need inspiring. Have a good week.
xx
Hi Julia! Back later, as (as always) late for work!) Your desklooks productive! an S for Something Special? and thankyou for my lovely WOYWW, I hope we can say now, its on my desk this week, (hidden last)
(Lyn)
And I had to come back to you, to say I am so glad I can use my easel now!!! thanks again to you and Mr D. (and my WOYWW covered pen pot will be there for good!)
Moving stuff is a much better idea than putting things away as it allows you to get inspiration from things if you can still see them. Thanks to you and Mr D for my easil I love it. It is sitting beside my promarker storage.
I was hoping to see that S & B in all it's glory this week.....fingers crossed for next week. Your desk is looking as interesting as always and you post always makes me laugh.....see ya next week
Every one is quick off the mark today....will visit as many as I can later...off shopping now!
Lovely creative desk. Love these hearts. Did you get my e.mail with my address? My wee gift hasn't arrived yet! I hope it hasn't been lost in the post! Have a good Wednesday! Kathleen x
And I thought I was early this week. Well I am for me, and I'm dressed! I'm often to be found sitting here in my PJs though. The hearts have been fab. Your desk looks full of possibilities today as usual :-) I'm so looking forward to seeing what you do with the little suitcase. What's the wooden WOYWW thingy?
Anne xx
Morning Julia
I missed last week so was sure I would get here this week! lol. Looking forward to seeing what you do with those hearts!
Joeyx
Ohh looking forward to seeing the "Altered Suitcase" once its done. I really must sharpen my scissors. Its a job I just keep forgetting then go to cut something and think mmmmm!!! Neeed sharpened!
Hope you have a lovely Wednesday and thanks for hosting again, Hazelxoxo
Happy WOYWW! I do enjoy staying in my jammies to craft! especially on a wednesday when there's no-one else at home :-) Love the sentiment on your cute tag from yesterday! Have a great day and hope you heat up soon!
hugs
Michelle

Julia can we go public with our little secrets now? I see yours is prominently displayed. Hugs BettyXXX
Great desk! Love your tag! Can't wait to see what you do with the suitcase!
Love the hearts. My blog post just took me over an hour to do. Mobile dongles can be so irritating.
Luv Joanne xx
Love the workspace there is just so much going on and so many goodies to nosey at!! Can't beleive you where cold this morning is sooooooo warm Love Chanelle xx
Good morning, lots of activity going on - AND, I love your tag yesterday will we be seeing more? Pleased to see your WOYWW on display, will take mine out of the cupboard now. Thanks Julia - have a good day. ikki
Lovely sunny and busy desk this week :-D

It's no good that trunk just sitting on your desk, we want to see you decorate it!
** Kate **
Busy, busy desk today Julia. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the suitcases. Love the heart tags in an earlier post and your tag from yesterday.
It took me aaages to get Mr Blogger to work this morning....I uploaded and lost half of my post as it wasn't saved and booted me off! Grrr. I think we give him a hard time on Wednesdays and he can't cope! LOL. TFS. ~Glen~
oh morning hun see you are nice and early,hehe I always,am on my computer with my PJ's on he he and guess what I still am,ha ha,love whats on your desk,hun those hearts,look fab see you have a cropodile too,hugs cheryl xxxx
Crikey, I've just added my link and we're already past 60 today! No way I'll get round them all, but I'll get to as many as I possibly can!
Our study gets the sun from first thing in the morning through the front window, then gets the afternoon sun through the side window. In the evening the sunlight bounces off the windows and right into my eyes when I'm at the pc! Consequently the blinds are usually down!
I have my trusty tower-fan for company today!
Gosh there are lot of early birds today!! Guess they will all want to be free to watch the footie this aft!!!!!!! Have a great day Julia - love the little easel.
Back to my usual spot well down the list today LOL and exhibiting the push back trait too
Hi Julia (waving)
Now see, this was the sort of piccie I wanted to take. I obviously need lots more practice with a camera!
Love those hearts and waiting to see the finished suitcase.
Hiya Julia!! OOOo sunny spot! Looks like you have been a busy bee as usual! Just spotted some letters on your desk? What you going to do with them I wonder? Have a great week in the lovely weather!
Lavinia

Oh you have a crop-a-dile. I have the Big Bite and it really is a Big Help for me :) It's silly hm how a girl can be so glad punching holes trough things? :)
** Evi **
Cold - what!...love those hearts - love WOYWW thanks for keeping it going
Oh, I love my coated scissors, too!!! I just forget and grab other ones and end up with a sticky mess! Your workspace looks fabulous! Busy with exciting activity!
hi miss j,
i'll be back joining in next week, things are a little hectic here - we've not abandoned WOYWW!!! see you soon xxx
Lovin your hearts Julia, your tag is fab too, now are you feeling brave enough to tackle those suitcases, altering, distressing etc doesn't come easy to me either, can sit for hours and it still never seems as good as some of the fabby pieces I see, but the most important is that I've enjoyed myself.
xx
Certainly wasn't cold here, it's been roasting all night and all morning,making me feel quite ill. I don't do well in the heat. I love that you are getting into altering and grunge-but not-quite-grunge lol You do know we are all sitting waiting for the suitcase to get done now!
what's that little woodblock |I spy at the back with WOYWW on it? What are your plans for that then or did I blink and miss it already?
Looks very sunny and I'm in full agreement of the push back theory. Why put everything away to do something else to get it all out again? That's why I'm doing my workshop prep on the dining table so I can leave my stash be!!
Love
Victoria

Wow very sunny. I've been alfresco posting with the aid of WiFi. :-)
Hi Julia sorry I can't join in the fun today! My camera has given up the ghost!
Good Luck with the suitcase.xx
I have a very large suitcase that needs filling for Beijing next weekend... yours looks much more inviting. :)
Looking forward to blog hopping later. Hugs, Gez.xx
I also notice my little gift! (and I hid mine so it wouldn't be in the phot0 ha ha)I will have to have a nosey back as not been around much this week (you know me the sun and I are friends not that I sit in it) I love being out in the light! so will have to have a week catch up to see what you have been doing with these hearts!
Love Dawn xx
It is great to be back and blog hopping desks :0) I can see your thingie and just wanted to say Thank you soooooooooo much for my thingie ... it was the very best part of my coming home mail :0)
I have just unpacked a very large suitcase ... it was much more fun than usual I can tell you :0)
Have always loved spying on your desk and have at last taken the plunge to fess up to mine. It might have startling results... Let's hope! Thanks for the inspiration,
Jozarty
Good grief - cold? I was melting last night - ended up changing into my jammies at 7pm as my jeans were to warm. Trouble is when I sleep I like a blanket on me - no matter the weather. Partly because the mozzies find me extremely tasty and partly because I feel more secure and snuggly and thus sleepy if I'm all covered up - so have to prepare to melt. We must maybe have it warmer here in kent.
A busy desk Julia! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the suitcase!
Alison xx
Thought I would join in the fun with you this week!
Morning! Posting in jammies with java, per usual for me. If I'm home all day I don't get dressed until right before hubs gets home! Why bother. I missed last week (really missed). I had to catch up on your posts and I LOVE your hearts!!! I'm not sure of your prices in US dollars but it can't be nearly enough for those beauties!
Have a great week!
hugs!
kat
i really need to tidy as I go!
love this x
Hey Julia
I've hidden my little prezzie I just took the pic down incase not everyone has it yet :) THANKS!!!! I posted early but couldn't stay up to add me in earlier lol Those suitcases of yours are soo cute :)
hugs Nikki
Nah put it back up too many peeps showing it lol
Lord, look who forgot to leave a comment after linking? Yep, that would be me! Can't believe how tidy your desk is looking sweetie, are you well??
Hugs
Brenda
Oh, your desk looks so interesting compared to mine! 'Fraid I just can't cope with the push-back method though, I've got to clear everything away between projects - I think I've got the kind of mojo that needs a lot of room to circulate!!
Nicki, xx
That suitcase is so cute!
Hi Julie, thanks for visiting my blog. The nesti I used for Anya is a Nellie's multi frame No. MFD 007 (Nellie Snellen) she does lots of shapes and they are half the price of Nestabilities.
Hugs Suzi x
Wow...very bright and early this morning, by the time you are reading this you are probably back in your nightie!!
Hope you finished your chopping and counting.
xx
Eeh oop Julia. I kicked the Hero Arts habit a while ago as you can probably tell from the age of my stamps. I saw one of those stamps-a 1996 Penny Black on Ebay a while ago and it had been bid up to about £10. Decided I didn't really want to weed out some stamps as I do still like them. I am a Stampin' Up junkie now I'm afraid. Love BettyXXX
Hi Julie!
I love your idea of the workdesk! This is my first week on WOYWW but I am really looking forward to doing it every week!
I would also like to say that you have enspired me to start making more cards! You are so talented!
Love and Hugs
GeorgiaXOX
it's sooo hot at my work desk now, I would seriously consider and early morning start in the cool! love the little hearts!
Loving the easels Julia poor Mr Dunnit must be exhaused! Hugs Pam x
Im a bit behind this week, if only every week was a holiday week, can I just say this is a brill idea, loved mooching around here last week
Cant wait to see what those hearts turn into!
Rachael xx
I really enjoyed looking around your blog. I am a first time visitor - now following! Thank you for the inspiration!
Sorry havent been able to play this week, but off for a nosey around some desks
Love those suitcases, enjoy playing with it x
What time of day did you get up to be freezing !!!! I was too hot before I'd even got up - I'm not made for this sunny weather bring back spring LOL!!!

Penni

I have been enjoying lurking for a few weeks but have taken the plunge & have linked my first time Wednesday Workdesk post !!
Thanks for hosting the project !
I keep getting all these messages about people not being able to show their easels. I sure hope I didn't do anything wrong by letting the cat (not Bleubeard) out of the bag.
Sorry i'm late! The tag is gorgeous, I think we both sound quite similar when it comes to distressing! I must get some of those teflon scissors, I am tired of having to wipe sticky stuff off them!
Eeeek! It's Wednesday?!?!! I seriously forgot, sorry :( I will visit some desks anyway but I have only just got in from work and am waaaay too tired to hunt out the camera and post my desk x
Pretty hearts - great stamps - and we are having wierd hot/cold weather here too!
Hugs

Love the hearts you have been making, looking forward to seeing the ones in todays piccy finished.
The hearts are a lovely idea. Hope to see what you do with the dinky suitcase.
Lesley Xx
Julia dahling, the reason I have the same Union Jack postcard is because you DID part with one and sent it to me!
Linbyx
oho my goodness! Think I've just about see half the craftyness today and then thought I must pop back later to Julia's (because I was late this morning as always) but anyway, bought a mag and there was me in it, about where we craft, and at the time I told them about WOYWW and guess what! they wrote what I said! so What's On your Work top wednesday had a mention in Quick Cards Made easy
(Lyn)

hugs judex
Thank you for all you do for this site and for us!!
Soz I'm late. Probs been told this 95 times already, but try spraying those black scissors with teflon, they may be a bit non stick again. Leandra
Cant believe I commented on everyone's blog last week but not yours! so sorry - love your messy desk and think your ideas about naughty words is great - I remember years ago my friend and I went to a craft fayre (turned out to be jumble sale) where she was selling painted stones - we had the letters P I S O F so we improvised and put them out with another letter S in there and another letter F on the end - we had hours of fun giggling about our "display" not one person noticed either! Oh happy days.
Oooh I too have those two adorable little suitcases - have gessoed one but not touched the other one yet. What are you going to do with yours? might just cover mine with brown paper and be done.
