What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday? 95


Ok, so call me slightly better organised, and I reiterate - slightly - I've been making my WOYWW anniversary PiF thingy, so have had to clear up a bit in order to keep the secret, well, at least not divulge my rubbish idea too soon! So you see the desk as uncluttered as it needs to be before I start the next thing. And there's a lot of that.... Ludgershall Crop on Saturday..so that's Friday on my hands and knees in front of the paper shelf again. Workshop on Thursday, so that's some cutting and shaping and preparing to do, the summer Card Marathon which is starting to make me panic, and of course, there's a new Workshop list out for my local shop Kraft Crazy, and my name appears more times than it should which means I have samples to come up with on various themes which means of course that my mojo and my courage have shacked up together and taken flight. The light is enhanced by overhead lighting here, but I cannot account for the shakey shot..maybe I should have coffee first!
So are you up for taking part in our second anniverary WOYWW celebration? It's a PiF and you can find details and how to at this post. I can't stress enough that this is a bit of fun and there is no obligation to join in the PiF, you can still join in the WOYWW madness on that day - and any other Wednesday!
Meanwhile, show us what you're up to this week - photo your desk/lap tray/floor (Helen - you have a buddy!!) and post it to your blog. Link here and we'll pop by. We'd love to. Don't mind if some of us are astonishingly late, though, huh.

  1. Tidy looking desk today, even if it is cheating cos you hid your anniversary PIF (not started one yet...) But your basked of stamps to clean has - erm - grown!
    I cannot believe there is more than one of us reduced to working on the floor. Must look out very carefully on my tour!

  7. That's looking might spic and span mam! You will be fine with the workshops...I would be glad to be in your company even if you demo a folded tea-towel. Just be you - there's more mojo in your hands than you think...

  8. Dear Julia

    It is so much fun to see your desk go from totally chaotic one week to nice and tidy the next (even if it's because you're "hiding" stuff from us!)

    Have a great week and look forward to next week's peek!

  13. OMG. I think I lost a week somehow. It is this Saturday isn't it? Have you SEEN my W?? I think I better get sorted and fast or I'll be twiddling my thumbs and making cups of tea all day.

    So, are you #1 for the purposes of the PIF? Cause you don't reallypost, do you? Just wondering...

    See you Saturday!

  18. Hi Julia,

    I know I'm in trouble now, your workspace is clean....Yikes!! Now I know I better get on my PIF, the weeks are just wizzing by way to fast. I noticed what I thought was a WOYWW wooden stamp on one of the blogs last week. I was told it wasn't a stamp but was made by your hubby..do you have any left????

    Have a great WOYWW. BUcnhes of hugs Marjo

    ReplyDelete
  19. Julia, is that your desk? Naah, that must an impostor. Looks good to me. You could try using a tripod to get rid of camera shake....but then again, coffee is more fun. Happy WOYWW! #26

Not much sheep last night, and tooo much coffee, does it snow? Work beckons! Have a good week with all your crops, and other things, you are a very multi talented woyww-er!

  40. Great desk. Lovely and neat and organised. And this week I don't hate you for it! I am jealous about all the teaching you'll be doing. I really must find somewhere near by to teach. Good luck and have heaps of fun. (And if I see your mojo or your courage I'll send them on home to you.)

    cheers, Rachel, #64

    ReplyDelete
  54. Wow Julia, your desk is very neat today. Although judging by your basket of stamps, you've been having lots of fun lately!

    Thank you for your kind words last week; I took your advice and after ignoring my craft stuff my mojo came back full of appologies lol!

  60. Maybe it' seeing that desk so tidy that's given you the shakes? Gad you have had some Pif inspiration, I'm still thinking.

  65. That is a rather tidy desk you have there.
    Loving the PIF idea, & it gives plenty of time to not only get my thinking cap on but to make something as well :)

    ReplyDelete
  66. Yes, a really tidy desk this week and a bit of tease too. I'm thinking about what to do for the PiF but so far nothing concrete has come the the old grey cells. Off to take a look at some of the other desks now. Elizabeth x #96

    ReplyDelete
  67. I think I spend more time cleaning up my messes than I do making them. Glad to be back on the WOYWW blog. I haven't been around in a while. I have to go read about your pif idea. Happy Wednesday!

  68. Far too tidy .... what's going on? I bet you have two desks, one to show and one to work!

  70. I think I need to have a lie down, Julia - a tidy desk AND all those classes, demos and crops! What an output of work that represents. I am sure your mojo is just gathering ideas ready to get you back on track. And, ah, the mention of Ludgershall again - I am going to have to come along one day and crop in Gran's memory. If you have a member living at 15 Linden Close, it will be perfect.

    thanks for letting me see your desk!

  71. Lovely view of the garden from your desk and very tidy today too. Thanks for your comments , the terracotta pot at the back of my desk is a clay pot my daughter made for me and the green container is my water pot and the piece at the front of my desk is a mini top hat for a challenge.
