Here is the first of many - well, 12 calendar pages for next year. The reason I'm doing them so soon is that a handful of other crafters want to do a calendar workshop, so while the going is good, I'm making up kits as I make up pages. No prizes for guessing which month this will be. Funny..can't work in order with such things.
So now, share with us your work space and what you're currently doing. You're an inspiration. Link your WOYWW titled post here and we'll come by. See ya!

I'm going to guess October. I've keep saying that I'm going to make a calendar, but I never do it. Happy crafting #1
Gorgeous page, love the pumpkin die and what a fabulous background!

I strive to work out of order as I get ideas, but then the OCD kicks in lol. There is a lot of desk showing under the craftiness : D. #7
Oh I think your button jar has become a little lower and I'm glad I'm not the only one stores my inks upside down :) hugs Nikki #4
I have a little Halloween Candy to if anyone wants to join in :)
Oooh...I'd love that calendar workshop. Your desk looks so lovely today! Sandy Leigh #11
I'm finding more and more that I also can't work in order. I have to work in order in my calendar, but that's because it's a daily thing (grin). Nice to know I'm not the only one who wants to skip around to avoid boredom.
Happy WOYWW from #2.
I love calendars! Your desk intrigues me today!
Create With Joy - 12?

Hi Julia!! You are too cute!!
I made top 10 this week! WOO HOO!!
xxDaniella#10
I can get the month but the grey rectangle beats me. BJ#17
Oh and I am sure Tim Holtz said you don't need to store the inkpads upsidedown at his workshop last week. He had a couple of other tips which I am going to blog when I am feeling better. BJ#17
Well that is a lot of calendars to do.. have fun with that, and cant wait to see them.

Much more organised than I am - now when did I say I was going to make one of those? Well done Julia.
Hugs, Neet xx 20
Happy WOYWW!! Have fun with your calenders!
-Tera #9
Now I would have just made the calendar page and it would occur to me afterwards about the kits... so you must be organised!! I hope you are using the haunted house die... I'll have to think of something to do with it pretty soon!
I hope you share the pages when you're done with them. I can't get the month. Is it in English - LOL.

Hi
I was thinking of you and Jan today - a half a world away but I'm guessing not so very much in sensibilities and thinking the world was a pretty amazing place. Then I open up to see what week we are one and read your lovely sentence about tranquility and I literally snorted. My desk is anything but tranquil this week. But still, perhaps you catch my drift! Have a great week.

I'm flat out thinking about the next week let alone the coming months. Your Autumn inspired calendar page looks beautiful, the background looks to be shimmery and I love the cute pumpkin. Have a great week!
Sounds very organised! Calendar kits
I see that button jar of your is full ..... What will you do if you get more buttons

I just love the light in that photo! Your desk really does look a haven of tranquillity! Julie Ann x #34
Lol Julia it is a short post isn't it and I thought that mine was short, but compared to yours it is very long :-). Calendars for next year...oh boy where has this year gone!! Happy WOYWW.
Janene #36
I always want to make a calendar for my desk - but never get round to it... this will be a great workshop. I'll try and imagine what happens... Was awake in the night to link (toilet trip!) but only to find my anti virus programme had found a trojan virus burrowing its way through my computer, lol, so it took an hour to remove it (all, hopefully, though I'm not sure!) Have a good day, lovely Julia! Helen 23
Looks like a lot of industry going on at your desk Julia...calendars are great idea must put that in my to do list. Have a great week Cheers RobynO#21
Yes it all looks very calm at dunnit desk this week ..... Bet it won't last long hehe
Janet... Oops what number am I ?
Not doing things on order pleases me tremendously...go, Rebel Craft Lady, go!!

Kay #43
Very interesting work on Your Workdesk.
Thank You again this interesting challenge.
Gosh that desk is very organised and yes it does look calm & tranquil.

Oh I'm guessing it'll be one of those months either side of this one! I'm glad you told us, I thought it said killer in a line of different smudged inks or dark blood ...so please show us when they're done!! Happy woyww I think I was #46..... Have a great week!
As you say, a tranquil photo this week Julia - I'm impressed with your preparations in advance. MMx
How uber organised are you.....I'm impressed :-) Hope we get to see them when you've finished them.....I'm guessing the first is October.
Hugs,

Well done for getting so far ahead. I do a calender each year, but it is just printed off with most of the birthdays already in place, using my Family Tree programme. Hope you get it all done together with the kits you need. xx Maggie #6
One sick cat has me sitting in the morning sun at 'whaaat time'??!?!?! wondering .... where did the buttons go?
Have a good day everyone.
Bishopsmate #50 (50 did you hear!)
I am impressed, Julia. Such organisation - well done! The only thing I can think of for next year is Dr appointments for hubby - we have already said goodbye to one specialist for 2013!!
I also always store my ink pads upside down - thought it was the right thing to do... seemed sense somehow.
Have a great week of calendars and preparation.

OOps - losing the plot - that's what comes of thinking I will get out into the garden good and early - number 52 - not 92!!
Margaret #52!
A bit slow getting going this morning - will call back later, john-w #53.

Love the look of the cut outs even though there looks like a lot of bits to pick out. Have a good week.
Karen #55
I guess it's like anything else - just go with the flow!! Think it might be my birthday month you are busy with so put a big circle round that date for me!! x Jo
Great workspace Julia! Have a good week xx Jan (57)
Nope I have looked and cant quite figure out what month it is you are doing.. I see pumpkins on the one on the right so yep that is an important month my birthday is in that month..
Happy WOYWW

Mistress Inspiration rarely works in straight lines, or lists... she picks and chooses which days/months take her fancy :)
Happy WOYWW and have a fun week!

Calenders make such lovely gifts, must start work on some soon too :)
Have a wonderful week Heather #63
Happy WOYWW, I always have a stack of nearly finished stuff Julia!
I thought I was going to be so early, even maybe the first, but just after midnight this post wasn't here, I kept trying but no! So I gave up and went to bed, and now I am in the middle, 66, oooo-er! I have never been so low!
Cazzy x
A short & sweet post, a bit like me hey?! Lol I do love your calendar pages. Take care Zo xx
Happy WOYWW, Julia, and can I say a thank you for bringing us all together like this, I have only been here for a couple of weeks, but met some smashing people...I love your desk and always you have something on the go...Hugs Avril#60
Your calendar page is already looking good. I think short posts is the theme is this week.
Sandra @68
I have never tried a calendar! How fun! I spot a pumpkin there, so I am guessing October! (Be here before you know it!) That box on your desk is a beauty too! Happy WOYWW!! Winnie#69
Morning Julia - Very organised indeed! Great idea to kit up while you work. It should be a fun class. Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 70
Good Morning to you!! Like the scrapbook pages you're working on. It takes a lot of work to put them together I imagine. Have fun and Happy WOYWW! ♥ Karen ♥
Oh a calendar...I've made a couple of them but always seem to give them away. Need to do one just for me! #73
Great idea to start a calender for next year, I think I may borrow that idea =).
Happy WOYWW a I wish you a wonderful week.
xx Monique #60
Oh my your desk looks so neat,I love'd to make a calender,I've never made one before. I love the painting on that box, thanks for sharing and have a lovely day , I hope to get to snoop a lot more this week... Dianne #74

Julia, Calendar Workshop - what a great idea, look forward to seeing the whole year when your done
Kim (Daisy)
I actually can't read the month! I need to get a wriggle on with my calendars - thanks for the prod.
Next years calendar and in Septemeber, well done you. I'm afraid I don't get a prize, I can't guess what month it is, I thought it said Kittens but I diesn't does it?
Thanks for you lovely comment. I got on with my easy sock and left the ravelled one firmly where it was - good advice

With your calendar page taking up your workspace it almost looks neat and tidy! And the page on the far right - the paper is gorgeous! Happy WOYWW!
Carol N #88
oh gosh - that October page is gorgeous! Have fun with your calendar!
The calendar sounds very interesting. I will keep posted to see about it.
Your desk intrigues me today Julia!
Happy PPF!
aaaaargh! Sorry to be so late, can't believe how tidy your desk is Julia, a stark contrast to my monster this week. Cx #98
Hello!
I hope this finds you well! Your calendar making has me inspired to finish the birthday calendar for this year that I never finished! Wishing you a happy day!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
Gorgeous looking calendar and beautiful light on your desk today! Thanks for hosting and sharing. Happy WOYWW. Caro x (#78)
The desk is looking quite spacious today! I'm impressed that you are making up kits as you go--very forward-thinking of you. Happy crafting!!!!
I love hobbycraft. I have only been once (and under strict supervision just to be on the safe side). So many things I could have bought!
Thanks for hosting as always :)
Sarah @ A Cat-Like Curiosity
I have never tackled a calendar! I know yours will be sensational!!
Thanks for hosting this wonderful hop!
Wishing you a wonderful WOYWW!!
Lynn #100
yes we are in the last quarter of the year......love the masling on your bag by the way,,,,zeffy103
I love that yours is in twilight as mine is all about burning OUT my light! Thanks for this wonderful inspiration every week!
Ooer! I've rambled a bit but I wanted to show the sunset - yes I'm that late!! I'll try to do better next week! Chris 105
You know, it's not that our desks are messy, as long as the mess is ever changing. :-)
Congrats on all you've gotten done!
Thank you for stopping by my blog earlier and for the nice comments.
Happy Woyww,
Sandy #13
wow your desk does look so very serene!!! good for you to get going on those so early and lucky for those students that will get to learn with the kits!

I got lots of new goodies on my desk. Yeah!
TY for the visit. :D I must say that given the talented crafter you are, your comment about the project I'm working on made me giddy. In all honesty it's not hard to have even a so-so project look fab when using G45 papers. I'm currently sporting the Bird Song collection which I absolutely LOVE!!! I'm excited to see how your calendar turns out. I'm not one to work in order either. Keeps things interesting. How's your lower back feeling??? Better I hope. (((HUGS)))
Kimmie #3
FABULOUS - I do love coming here and seeing what you are all up to. It's like a wonderful giant Hop... I sit with my coffee and gather inspiration from all these wonderful crafters :-D
Thank you for doing this JULIA x
HAPPY WOYWW 222

Hi Julia, thanks a lot for hosting another one of those great chances to visit other people's workdesks, it's always very inspiring. I can't even remember for how many years I plan to make a calendar, no success so far ... Suzanne

Hi again, just want to say no.. that's not shore polish it's a tub of green Inka Gold. fun stuff. Roberta 17
Hi again Julia, Oh I know, I have seen the Unity Stamps over here, well some of them. But Unity keep doing these sales, and offers, right now for example there is 55% to 70% off some stamps and sets, and all the ones I bought were 55% off at least, so I wouldn't get them that cheap (and Unity threw in a couple of free Itty Bittys and some journal card things), I haven't worked out if the tax and fee made them more than here, I doubt it. HMCE seem to have dropped the limit to £15 so they catch more.
Carol
Wow you certainly are ahead, what a fab idea doing the kits as you make yours, very organised. I really really love the card/paper on the right hand side which is browns, coppers and golds flourishs, did you make this? If you did do you mind me asking how? And if it was bought can I ask where? I really really want one lol. Happy Woyww :-) Kezzy xxx
Working in order????
I don't compute that idea!
I have missed all of you! Been missing in action for months. Love your calendar!
