Wow, getting this photo to load has been erm, difficult. Mr Linky wasn't in the wrong....it was there but not showing....how does that happen! Still, all's well that ends well. |

What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 166
Well, I've made a start! and now I have to stop and tidy up before I can continue because I want to work on a 12 inch page and there just isn't room. Surprise! You can see that I've got a couple of letters to post, (Paula and Shoshi) and some stamps to clean. No worries, the stamps will wait! I've been making a few samples for Shopkeeper Gal which meant borrowing some of her very extensive die collection. (Sound jealous? Yep!) So..there really is stuff under the stuff. The iPad deck chair has been re-employed whilst glitter glue is drying. I took the photo with the iPad and now notice the camera - switched on, in what can only be described as a 'discarded' position. Huh? Don't remember doing that!
Show us your stuff then, be proud if it's tidy and don't apologise if it's not! We just like to visit and have a rummage. Put WOYWW in your post title, make The post WOYWW relevant....linking here to get visitors for a post about something else doesn't work out.

Happy week ladies...
No Linky maybe - but much more importantly, no piccie of your desk for my weekly snoop Julia :( Sigh, I'm off to bed - will return in the morning to snoop and link.
I hope folk won't expect you to link for them - there are much better things for you to be doing, like cleaning those stamps......wot I can't see right now :)
Happy WOYWW, hugs, Di xx

Hi Julia!
I'm sure you are sleeping, but as you've seen in the comments the linky is wonky again!
Since you will wake up 5 hours before me, I will leave my link so maybe you could link me up?

I'll be back in the morning to see what's up!
Have an awesome day!!

Happy WOYWW
Cindy
Here's my first blog about this - is there normally a linky: http://cathys40things.blogspot.co.uk/2012/08/woyww.html
Odd, I have Mr Linky but no photo? LOL
Well I have a number now but still can't see your picture... I am sure it shows a magnificently tidy desk, despite what you say.... lol! Helen, 4 ish
Wahoooo I'm early on the list now :-)
Hugs,
A x
Coo, what a stroke of luck - I just peeked before hopping in the shower and Mr Linky is all present and correct. Now show us yer knickers girl, oops, desk I mean :)
Hugs, Di xx
Yay! And just in time as I have to dash to collect DDs glasses!
Btw, if y.ou add your blog info so that is what shows rather than your Gravatar, your name will be your link when you comment. It won't be the specific WOYWW post unless you change it each week, but it will link to your blog
Just FYI
MA
Ah, now I see a photo, AND I've managed to get myself in at #1, totally by the luck of the draw.... Good Morning Julia - I hope the rest of today goes better!
just a busy, highly creative desk!! so glad mr linky put in an appearance :)
happy WOYWW!!
Ahh...there you are Julia. Phewph...we were all worried about you ;D
All's well that ends well. It's so reassuring to see you desk...lots happening by the look of it.
Thanks for sorting everything...I can go to my girlie book club meeting now.
Happy WOYWW ~ Neesie (#10 or there abouts) :D
Yay, glad to see it all up and running. Love the mess on your desk, makes me feel right at home :)
If you get time, can you look at the special bit at the bottom of my post, it's about no reply blogs and when you comment on my blog,it says yours is a no reply. That may be that you don't want a reply from people or you don't know it's there, if so there is a link to fix it.
Have a great week and I hope you clear enough room to work.
Von # 17
Horrah You spotted the invisable Mr Linky and so glad I can see your piccy now. Definitely no room for doing a 12x12, get some order there girl! BJ#19
Hi Julia I am not sure what is going on but I am late and have an early number!! Wish I could zoom in and get a closer look at your drying work. It looks very delicate from here. Have fun tidying! Poor camera! WOYWW Hugs to you from Helen 23
Hi Julia, sending my apologies for this week, a bit under par - wow, your desk is very busy this week! A x
This is the first time I've seen where the comments exceed those of us linking. At least I can finally see both your desk AND the linky. Must have been a shock when you woke this morning to see all us whining gals (grin).
Yay the linky is up and the pics of your desk, looks very busy today. Oh like that little tree paper. Just wondering if you received my mail I sent you? It was a surprise so I didn't want to say what it was. Hope you got it! Sandy :)
I forget to take a photo yesterday, get up late this morning, think I'm going to be number 99.9 and here I am, number 33.
Glad to be back after a two week break and I see you are as busy as ever Julia. The piece on your easel looks very pretty, wish I could see in close-up.
Happy WOYWW.
Ann B

Wow... you DID say it was a cr*p-a-lanche!! It's a very impressive mound but at least there's a purpose to it all :)
LLJ xx
Have a good day everyone the sun is out. So it's outside with a cup of tea and iPad for a browse round your desks
Lynn x
Don't think I could do a 12" page either on my desk, LOL.
Have a great Wednesday, hugs
Erika.
Hurrah Hurrah - you are up and running!!
I think we all have the problem of only having a postage stamp sized area to actually work in but we usually manage it somehow!!
xx
Ah, Mr. Linky's here at last! Before I hop off back to bed for a while, just thought I'd drop back in - that's a glorious mess, Julia, and I'm so glad my letter is in there somewhere lol!! Look forward to that.
See ya all soon.
Happy WOYWW,
Shoshi #50 yay - got a number at last!!
Hmmmm one's desk seems to have shrunk, is that new acrylic draws i spy {prob old but hay i've not been by in a while}
I'm glad to see the familiar messiness of your desk, think it would be odd to have it any other way lol Right i must scooch as things to do! Sending hugs xx
Oops my number is #51 I believe
oooh I do love a messy desk!! Annnd i love the missing linky thing too... changing the time that it goes live gives different people the chance to be further up the list! Not that you did that on purpose, but you know what I mean!! xxxxx
Trish loves the messiness and I'm having palpitations! (not really!) I like the paper I can see at the back with the funky trees on it. It looks like you've been having a marvellous crafty time! Hurrah! I've been really enjoying my first few WOYWW weeks so thank you for all you do to keep it going! Happy WOYWW! Victoria no.53
Wow! lots going on this week, hope the tidy up didn't take too long. x April #43
Hi Julia . . . well, for neat-freaks like me . . . I'm freaked out by the state of your desk! Aarrgh xxx
Good morning Julia, sounds like you've been having some issues overnight. All is well this morning and I'm #55. How often does that happen? All the rest went to bed and gave up so I sneaked in before they got up. Have a good rest of the week!
Sounds and looks mayhem there! Don't we panic and miss you but isn't it good to be wanted and needed. We do love you!
Don't miss my blog candy and there's a bit of fun there too. Also I met up with Lynn and the Doodly Birds on Sunday, pics in the previous post if you'd like to see yet another WOYWW meet up.
Love JoZarty x alias Ziggy Bogusky ( you'll find out why!)
So I missed last week (workdesk being transported across Europe, so nothing much on it... but I'm back for my second go now! Looking forward to being nosy...
Alison x
Hi Julia, as usual, I've had a good rummage around your desk and admired the chalk towers once more - I have one but I really need to treat myself to a couple more :)
My eyesight is definitely dimming, it took me forever to locate the camera - I felt I'd won a gold medal when my eyes eventually focused enough to zoom in on it ... see what I did there :)))
Many thanks for the tips on sewing - will take your advice and see if I can't improve in the card-stitching department.
I'll do a post on the wax paper technique and show my failures and possibly even a success or two.
Happy WOYWW and have a great week with lots of fun. Elizabeth x #18
Arhh and breath, all is well again :)
Thought the end of the world was nigh then! Ultra messy desk this week Julia, you have surpassed yourself but boy, would l like a rumble through it :)
Happy WOYWW xx
totally missed out visiting last week, had two classes at the local stamp convention and that took all my time had a great two classes and lots of fun off to see what everyone's doing have a great day
Well you look very busy and the start of a nice bit of work there ...
Your space looks like mine when I am doing something and I get very cheesed off when I put something down because it vanishes LOL
Sorry I have missed a few weeks been a bit down in the dumps :0((
have a nice week Julia x
Hi Julia, Good to see the pic there to go with your post. And Mr Linky there now too, so we can all come to the party now. Hooray!
RosA
I am happy Mr.Linky arrived safe and sound. I missed last week and am looking forward to catching up on the creative goodness out there. Yeah, your desk and mine are twins!! As I type now, my elbow is propped up by piles on my desk. Nice arm rest eh? I love the repurpose of the iPad stand. Sounds like you have lots of fun stuff going on. I am a bit tired watching the olympics these past weeks. It runs late here due to the time difference. So I didn't say much on my post but I am here to play. Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for keeping us all connected.
-Belinda (63)
Good to see Mr Linky is over his stage fright lol.
Looks like a super busy desk this week.
Hugs
Emily #65
I was surprised I wasn't #100 and something today. Glad Mr. Linky is now cooperating! :) I always love your busy desk! Hope you found the space to work on your page. I'd leave the stamps until later too........ Have a fabulous Wednesday!
I know what you mean, I don't have room on my desk for a 12 by 12 either!
Have a good week!
Laura

Love the mess dislike to poor abandoned camera!
Jaki #72
Good morning! I have never been in the 70's before with the links! I am usually in the early 100's :)
Happy WOYWW day!
Hope you are able to get to your 12x12.
Hoping to do that here as well :)
Mary Jo #74
Whoops! I meant
Mary Jo #73 :)
Trying to schedule an early post to catch Mr Linky really did not work this week. Now I find you had Linky problems as well. Love to see the creative spread on your desk. Have a lovely week.
Sandra @74
mr linky is probably shocked by some of our Workspaces and was hiding!
SO much fun going on on your desk! Love that card that is drying!!
So it seems sleeping late was a good thing as Mr Linky is here when I finally got here! Your desk as always looks a hive of activity with intriguing items to spy! Take care & enjoy snooping this week. Zo xx 77
My second time - didn't get chance to join in last week. Loved having all the visits and comments and I've taken the word verification thingy off my comment form now in case that was putting you off. Happy WOYWW to all of you!! Becki xx
My desk so frequently looks at busy as yours. Seems like I have to clean after every project! Your page on the easel has a great looking start. And I see you use reading glasses, too! And I love that little cupcake in your previous post!

Happy WOYWW and glad it is not just me having technical issues. Loving the messy desk - so much going on. Ali x #78
I don't feel so bad about my desk being messy now LOL!
Lindsay (frugalcrafter)
Woohoo! Look at that desk! Think I preferred it when I couldn't see it, lol!! Didn't realise you'd linked me up, came on here this morning before checking my comments, so I'm in twice. The book is pretty good but not set out very well with all the instructions at the back, instead of with the projects! I'm glad I didn't pay full price for it as I would have been really disappointed. However, the projects really are lovely and there are a lot of little tips sprinkled about, plus a good introduction. I hope to get a set of Prisma's or Coloursoft pencils before the end of the year as he used those a lot.
Hugs
Brenda
That desk is getting some serious love! It's fabulous! I love the piles of stuff as it means you've been busy creating! LisaDV #86.
Love the fall colors for those ink pads you are using. Can't wait for fall!!
Ooh, quiet this week! Completely forgot to link myself this morning and six hours later I'm only 17 further down the list than last week! Off for a hop :D
Helen S #89
yeah....got there in the end eh! Cute page your working on really pretty! As as usual a very creative desk! Have a crafty week Julia!

It's so nice to be home, and your desk looks lovely!! Any thing other than a peat bog or a sheep, looks lovely!!!
I rather envy your busy desk :) ha!
Your desk is always so creative!!!! Brilliant. Love it, I just wish i had more time to play with the goodies I sell ! lol happy woyww xxxxxxx
Nice busy desk there have fun with the dies x
Like your busy desk, Julia - the signs of an avid crafter! I came here at 5 this morning when I couldn't sleep and, of course, no Mr Linky, but I didn't feel like bothering with the camera then anyway. Glad you got the issues sorted. Hazel WOYWW #99 x
Hello!
Happy to see photo and link working this morning! Love looking at all of your workdesk in detail! Careful of your glasses - I just bent mine! Wishing you a happy day!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
I think it just took a while to download all the delightful goodies living on your desk! Thanks, as always, for being our beloved hostess! Have a wonderful week! Darnell #102
Creative mess, Work in Progress! Love it. #106
You do have lots of creative goodies. I see your ATG, just got one,have a little trouble getting it to let go after I roll it across the paper, got to practice that. Thanks for doing this, always fun to join in. I feel like I have friend that I would never have met without this fun site. Barb #102
Looking good! Funny about the camera! I think my camera may be starting to wear-out. Sad :( Thanks for hosting again!
Katie (107)
Love your desk Julia... always packed with crafty goodies.. good luck with the layout... Hugs May x x x#40
Love the creative use for Ipad deckchair!
Thank you for not sharing a photo of the desk after it was tidied. It is bad enough that I did it. I probably should have put a warning next to my name...!
Looking loving the work on your easel, I have tidied my desk since last week but decided to share my new shelf instead.
I couldn't resist sharing my collection after your comment the other week. Happy woyww x.
JB *116
Hi Julia!
Thank you so much for posting me! You are awesome!!
I love looking at your desk! You always show the most creative things!!
xxDaniella#12
Your desk makes me feel right at home;0)
Trouble is I am working in the kitchen again while a 10 x 8 shed is full to the gunnells and not even a 6 x 6 square of space to be had to work on. I have got to get treatment SOON!!!
Sheilagh xx
I love your desk so much! Apparently so do 125+ other people! Do you hate being famous? :)
Hi Julia! Loving the new vantage point from the ipad. and always your pile of crafting goodness. Looks like you are busy as usual...it's been super busy over here too! Enjoy your week~Annie. #124
Your desk is looking fabulously craftacular this week! The card drying on the ipad recliner looks amazing so far. :) I wish I knew some local crafters to do borrowing or exchanges with! You are very blessed in that manner, huh? :)
Deeyll #125 (earliest yet! lol)
Busy you. I always enjoy my Wednesday visit.
Happy WOYWW
Carol
Your card is brilliant. I find it safest to put glitter glue out of the way to dry. Sometimes gravity is just bad lol. And yes, definitely jealous about the dies :D. #128
12"x12"s do take up rather a lot of space don't they. It is my preferred format for scrapbooking, but I always have to have a huge tidy up before I can do a page.
I have to put my drying glitter glue etc somewhere safer than that. Baggins would add a fair helping of his fluff if I left it on my desk.
I have blog candy on offer so feel free to sign up to be in with a chance to win.
kate #25
Okay finally made it to the party! I am getting old and forgetful in my young age and for some reason the past couple of weeks I managed to not remember WOYWW! Whats up with that! Have a great week and WOYWW is now scheduled in my calendar! Vickie #130
Having difficulty leaving comments this week - has anyone else been finding a problem with this?
Bernice #46
Goodness Julia, I bet you woke up to lots of extra comments this morning! Everybody just about flipped their wig when we couldn't find Mr. Linky!!! I'm glad it all got resolved though...I'm not sure what we would all do without a week of WOYWW!!!
Amy E. #8

Your desk looks happy and busy. The item on the iPad seat looks intriguing. The nice thing about a friend with lots of dies is that you can cut, cut, cut while you have custody of them -- extras for your future endeavors.
I've been "absent" for so long that I decided to join in even though I'm so late posting! It's still Wednesday over here. :-) Watching the Olympics and laptopping on the couch.
looks like you are busy this week.
Bernice, I am also having trouble commenting with both the computer and Ipad, so I guess it is a blogger issue. dani101
Such fun! and I wrote in today's posting about how this site has changed my view of myself!!! Thanks you! Rebecca #132
Just catching up - again!
Janet (2pDesigns) #135
PS No chocolate on my desk this week either. I wish that rockablock had been chocolate ;)
I hope you don't mind me returning today with #138 - most of my visitors think that I'm always tidy, so, as I've just had a messy crafting time, I thought I'd show the difference - if you think it's out of order to come back again then please delete #138. x
Thanks for leaving the encouraging and very funny comment on my blog earlier! LOL. I feel much better now about my inability to make sense of abstract shapes... Maybe some day I will see something, eh? ;P Gosh, your desk looks like you've been absolutely busy!
Better late than never! Almost forgot until I was off to bed on Thursday! Did I miss last week? I forget. Soon this will be Wednesday habit! I'll do what Vickie #130 is doing and put it on my calendar- Great idea Vickie!
A bit late in stopping by this week, but better late than never I suppose. Ha, ha. My, my but your desk looks a bit busy! Yeah, that's what it is busy! :) If you get a chance check out my new tape dispenser on my desk. It's fab!

Better late than never, right?
Hello Mrs D...
Well, not quite a week late, but almost... I wrote a post week before last, started late on Wednesday, got disturbed, did a bit more to the post and added my pics... got distracted again and by the time I thought about it, it was Saturday! This happens to me quite a lot. I'm finding it hard to focus and small jobs feel epic - sleep is an issue, or rather tiredness - anyway, I'll try again this week.
Sorry to hear that you had trouble with Mr Linky... bloody technology - google chrome has been playing me up and not loading my pages at all :O(
Loving your busy desk - I end up pulling my top draw out to my desk to give me a bit of extra surface and still end up working in an area the size of a postage stamp...
better luck with Mr Linky for WOYWW 167
Massive hugs
Paula x x x
