Oh, look..not very much! I took this photo in a panic at about 7pm on Tuesday evening, and took another one about half an hour ago. The light is the only change. Even my glasses are still there...I'm typing this in something of a stupor of tiredness and short sightedness! I don't think much of this needs explaining, suffice to say that I've been playing around with some Christmas ideas, and am now planning to move on to some autumnal stuff. Nothing like getting the seasons out of sync! My lovely bobbly pen is to hand, I'm still enjoying that. That roll of tape in front of the deckchair stand was free - someone had tried to force into a bowl shape - and the stall holder gave it to me because it wasn't going to sell. Nice! You can tell that I corralled the scissors and have managed with only two pairs so far...but don't hold your breath - it's only Wednesday! Share your desk or workspace will ya? How to and other explanations can be found via links at the top of this page. It's easy, and it's fun, it's free and really, it's very friendly. So why wouldn't you....?
I am falling in love with that wobbly pen. I have many bowl shaped tape rolls like yours, its the humidity that does that to mine, the layers slide and slide and now I have cones of tapes, drives me up the wall Bridget #1
I have a stack of super thin red line tape s that are all stuck together. Way worse than a bowl! Crop may be in danger for me due to a birthday party I forgot about but trying to work it out. Frankly I am so sick of cleaning and decluttering at the moment I could use the break :)
I hope you can overcome the stupor of tiredness soon :) Very tedious, being so tired, isn't it? But that's lovely light for 7pm. I love daylight saving here in summer (I would be in a minority, though), when we can have lovely light at 7pm and later :) Have a good week. RosA # 6
The only thing I don't like about autumn is the early dark evenings - oh and the rain. let's hope we have a dry autumn.... love that bobbly pen - and I admit, I reject bowl shaped tape, but why? it works. so well done on grabbing a freebie.
Morning Julia, thanks for forcing yourself to post and host when you are so tired, hope you feel brighter as the day progresses. Tidy looking desk there with gold ribbon front left and the 'knife block' back right. Wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of you. Have a good day Chris #10
You did a great job tidying up your space this week ironing your ribbons too I've done that before just didn't get caught doing it lol love your Christmas card on your stand it's very inspiring might scrap lift it hugs Nikki 2
Good morning, Julia. Hope you are fully rested and less tired. Oh for a desk this morning with as much work space as you have! Love that wobbly pen!! Take care. God bless. Margaret#22
Morning Julia, your desk looks as inviting as ever. The view of your garden could be a tad distracting but, there again, it could also be a source of inspiration if you are planning autumn themed cards. I like the star bunting on the card that it propped up behind the misshapen roll of tape. Hope you get over your tiredness, take some rest, and have a great day. Hugs, Elizabeth x #26
Hope you get to put your feet up for a while. I love the view of your garden - I think I need to move my craft table so that I can see out of the window. Toni xx
Oh I do like that banner of primitive stars on the card. Lovely. I will soon have to turn my thoughts to seasonal crafting ready for next month's classes.
Oh, it's really good to 'see' you again, Julia and all your familiar stuff! Glad to see that you've made a start on Christmas - Christmas first and autumn second is the right way in my book! I've come back to the fold after weeks away. Hazel, WOYWW, #34 x
Hullo there Julia ah scissors they are a puzzle aren't they?? where do they migrate to.. and smiled at your photo taking it sounded so like mine. No desk change either.. but at least am doing something but it is tad frustrating when 24 hours pass and no work done there! jobs needed doing elsewhere! happy WOYWW and thanks so very much for doing this each week, you are a blessing, Shaz in Oz.x #33
Good morning! Did you miss me while I was gone? :) Such a pretty view you have, now wonder your desk looks like this! BTW, I wish you would come iron my ribbons! :) Happy WOYWW!
Those tape rolls just won't behave! As for scissors - all of mine are now corralled in the carousel, it is amazing, I even put them back when I am finished! I am pretty sure there is at least one more pair I haven't yet found on the desk though, or maybe they are on the floor on in the bits box!
Happy WOYWW, I did post after midnight but didn't get up early enough to be first!
At least you can find your glasses, Julia! I've been going round in my prescription sunglasses cos I'd taken the others off in the garden (they slip off my head when bending), rested them on a plant and then couldn't remember where! Two days later, I've finally found them - the joys of getting old(er)! Have a great week xx
I have been away for so long I forgot what to do. Glad to see things haven't changed on your desk though, still the glasses there. Don't talk to me about scissors, they get taken by the borrowers all the time - what do they do with them all? FAMFA (see I told you I forgot what I am doing - can't remember my number
I'm so curious about the card on your iPad stand and the banner on it, which looks like the Peruvian worry people. So cute! Have a good week! Sandy Leigh
I doesn't matter if you get the creative seasons out of whack at least you are getting crafting done. Still love that deck chair for the display. Hope you have a productive week crafting.
It is so great what you are showing, Julia - I been through similar things as well.. but - Tomorrow is another day, I use to tell myself. There will be happening new things. I think Life is a wonderful adventure
Happy WOYWW, lovely hostess! :-) Glad you've been having fun at your desk. I tiptoed into the Christmas season long enough to make a tag the other day, but I'm not quite in that mode yet. :-) Hope you're having a good day! ~ Laura #53
hope you have more energy an feel better soon I love the wobble pen and a great job of tidying too. look at all that creative space you now have.Don't you not just love christmas ...I'm liking the stars and fab embossing folder(another for the wish list) but don't get your autumn and christmas too mixed up or we might be seeing scarecrow snowmen or Santa with pumpkins pressies...who knows what possibilities there could be?... ;-) have a great week and thanks for being a fab host once again hugs Andrea #12
Your desk is looking very productive. I can't even think about Christmas yet. I am impressed that you are creating Christmas projects already. :-) April

Just can't afford the postage for all the Christmas cards I'd like to send, so I am only sending to family and very close friends this year.

ReplyDeleteHi Julia,
ReplyDeleteBusy desk - I am trying to think about Christmas, got cracking on some cards, but erm... still LOADS TO DO! Not enough hours in the day... Lyns x
At least you can find your glasses, Julia! I've been going round in my prescription sunglasses cos I'd taken the others off in the garden (they slip off my head when bending), rested them on a plant and then couldn't remember where!

ReplyDeleteYour post sounds like a description of my blogging these days. LOL!
ReplyDeleteLove your card with the string of hearts! Wonderful desk Julia! That pink thing with the bumpy head looks fun too.
ReplyDeleteI have been away for so long I forgot what to do. Glad to see things haven't changed on your desk though, still the glasses there. Don't talk to me about scissors, they get taken by the borrowers all the time - what do they do with them all?

Hi Julia, love the randomness on your desk. The tape fashioned into a bowl. Cracked me up. Cx #59
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW, lovely hostess! :-) Glad you've been having fun at your desk. I tiptoed into the Christmas season long enough to make a tag the other day, but I'm not quite in that mode yet. :-) Hope you're having a good day! ~ Laura #53
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy your lovely view out your windows. I have windows at my desk, but they're really too high to see much but sky and tree tops! :)
ReplyDeleteGreat score on the tape!!! Always love "free". I hope you get rested...seems from now on the rest of the year is a blur!
ReplyDeleteHaha! Love the authenticity of this picture! x
ReplyDeleteBowl shaped tape works just as well as flat roll, doesn't it? How nice to get a freebie.
ReplyDeleteHappy creating and happy woyww,

Hello Julia,
ReplyDeleteNo matter the condition of your desk, it always looks inviting. I think it's the nice big window letting the sun in. Perfect, really.
I didn't participate this week because there wasn't much new to share. Drats.
Happy WOYWW,
Hugs,
Kay
