I have some sensibility about me though, so although the old workdesk will still look very similar to this, before I left, I did pick out the ink pads and glues and remove them to their rightful places. And this effort was made to prevent them from sitting on the desk in afternoon sun, gently baking dry. Otherwise, they'd have stayed there - everything else has. What? I've been busy!
Christmas is still on my table, I keep telling myself to get used to the idea, but I still can't quite. Odd, because by the time Christmas is over, I'll really be in the mood to use glitter and tinsel!
Share then - what are you up to this Wednesday? Show us your work space, wherever and whatever...we consider it an invitation.

I hope you are having a lovely, relaxing time, without the hospital trip from your last attempt at a holiday!! Your desk looks great - I think Christmas finally needs to come to mine, really had better get started! Enjoy yourselves.. xx
Enjoy your time away. I like that reindeer stamp. It's too cute. #2
Hi Julia,
Well your workdesk looks rather full and I'm sure it's going to be waiting for you to create something when you get back from your holidays...
Hope the sun is shining and the wine glasses are flowing lol, have a fab holiday....
Wherever you are, I hope you're having fun!
My boys would have such a feline feast on your desk!
Happy WOYWW to you and as always, thanks for the peek!

Have a great vacation this time and stay away from the hospitals. Nice Busy desk even though you are gone. Love the reindeer stamp and card! Vickie #25
Enjoy your time away. Your desk will be there when you get back! I did get an easel for my mini pad, but am sending the link you gave me to my kids. Maybe they will get me a cute deck chair for me for Christmas! Thank you Julia.
Enjoy your holiday, and no disasters this time.
That's an order.

Enjoy every minute! x Jo
Hope you are enjoying the sun - it seems to have 'done a runner' from here...chilly & wet at the moment.

I have to admit that I get quite a lot of Christmas stuff done in January - especially if it snows - think its because I am still in a glittery mood then too! Enjoy your hols.
Recharging the batteries in the sun sounds sheer bliss Julie,
Have a wonderful time ;D
Neesie #31
Hope you are enjoying your holiday, Julia. Thank you for leaving your messy desk for us to enjoy while you are away lol! Perhaps we should all gang up and come and tidy it for you before you get back. Rudolf is looking particularly proud of himself - great card!
Happy WOYWW wherever you are,
Shoshi #32
Hope you're having a great holiday! And come back relaxed and rested. We miss you!!

HI Julia, hope you are having a smashing holiday- it has to go better than the last! I can't 'feel' like Christmas too early in the year either, and can't make C cards unless I'm in the right mood. Have a lovely break Julia, Hugs, Shaz xxx
Why were the inkpads put away? They should have gone with you and then you could have continued with "C" whilst sitting in the sun. Or do you just want to chill? Or am I just feeling jealous?
Hugs

Hope you're having a great time in the sun Julia!! Good thing you thought about removing the ink pads from the table... I think we all had 'accidents' with that, at least I learned from experience to never forget to close lids, store pencils horizontal and put ink pads in the drawer... happy woyww and hugs from (grey and rainy) Holland, Marit #38
Hi Julia, hope you're enjoying your well earned break, happy WOYWW wherever you are. Cheers RobynO#37
I think you are very sensible leaving the desk like that Lol! that way you don't have to try and remeber what you were doing before you went away and can just continue with where you left off when you get back right!
Happy holiday, Angela x
Gosh, your desk full of goodies makes me want to dive right in and have a play.
Have a lovely hol. A short, fun hol is a marvellous thing! Enjoy.
Morning Julia or are you still abed? You chose a good week to visit sunnier climes! Freezing here altho the big yellow things looks set to make an appearance. You need to do what I did this year - spent January making Christmas cards before I put it all away again and whilst I was in the mood - you are right - AFTER the festivities is mor conducive to christmassy stuff! Have a good break, Cindy x
Hope you have a great break. I've just spotted that great reindeer stamp (with the big antlers) which I bought at the weekend!
Helen x
We have had rain for 3 days and I'm wanting to see some sunshine! Hope you are having fun and that you return well rested!
Glenda #44
Hi Julia, You always make me smile. Love the messy desk and the Christmas card. Have a great vacation.
Love the desk ....
Have a wonderful break, hope the sun is shining and keeping you warm - if it makes you feel better .... it's miserable here!! :-)
Bishopsmate #46
Hope you're both having a super time in the sun - well done for thinking of moving the ink pads - although it wouldn't be a problem here today .. rain, rain ... Hazel, WOYWW #47 x
Hope you're having a great time. Come back relaxed and refreshed. Hugs xx
I read the word 'sun' and then saw the word 'wishes'. Pretty much sums it up here! Still, at least we have desks to pore over

Ha! I know just what you mean. I am that way about EVERY season....Seems like I get into the mood to create for a season..AFTER the season!
Hoping you are having a fab time in the sun!!!!
Have fun in the sun!
Hope the sun is shining and that you can still dip your toes in The Med. LOVE the Rudolph with Robins stamps and card on the desk, brilliant! Glad to hear you take care of your inkpads at least! But "baking on the desk" implies that you expect the sun to shine whilst you're away, which if it turns out to be the case, why did you go away, lol!!!!
Hugs

I also love the reindeer stamp. It's very cute! :)
A suitable creative desk, loving the reindeer stamp, such fun. I do hope you are enjoying your time away and enjoying some sunshine!! Take care Zo xx
Love that workspace. Have a lovely vacation I am sure you are where the evenings re cool and days hot, mmmm.... sounds like here.
I want to hug that reindeer. Your desk is absolutely fabulous today. And you're on DT? Woo hoo! You go girl!! Sandy Leigh
Ditto on all the comments about you and your's staying healthy on this trip : ). Love that Christmas card, that is an adorable Reindeer.
Enquiring minds want to know what is that cellophaned bit on the ipad deck chair that looks like perforated paper? #62
Oooppps late to the party this week - better late than never. Awww how cute is the reindeer? Great work desk and lots of lovely things to rummage through. Enjoy your holiday. Anita WOYWW #63
Hello!
Wishing you a wonderful time in the sun!
Hugs,

Happy holibobs Julia..I am counting the days until we head to Mexico. Love the chaos on your desk. How sensible to remove all the inks and glues! Cx #65
Hope your enjoying your trip!
Just looking at your desk leads me to believe that you needed a break! I love Christmas but I suppose I'm predisposed since I was born the day before!
Angie #67
Yeah, October is fine for having Christmas on a crafter's desk. It's when they try to get us back in June that I get annoyed. :-)
Enjoy your time, I'm sure it's well earned!
Happy Woyww,
Sandy #27
I said I would get all my Christmas cards made early this year and bought some new bits to use on them! Thanks for the reminder.
Kate #68
Wow, lots to look at on your desk, and lots to come home too....Wow, how can you relax knowing all that creativity is waiting for you. If you get home and anything is missing....I wasn't there :-) Have fun in the sun!
Hi Julia,
I am just the same about Christmas, reluctant to get going on it before, then afterwards I can do Christmas like crazy! Maybe I should just plan to do it in January and get it over with!
Have a lovely break.
Carol x#70
Great reindeer stamp! did you stamp on music tissue paper? Hard to tell on my screen. Have a great trip.
Christmas on your table looks good - I may even get to doing something myself now, having got boxes from cupboard now and put them in reach!! Hope you are having a great time Chrisx 74
Love that reindeer, so cute! Hope you are having a lovely restful break away :o) Annie C #76
Have a wonderful time away! I'm a little bit in a flutter now, what with your talk of Christmas . . .
Thank you for the woyww, Julia!!

Busy busy desk ! A sign of a creative mind I say ! Ali x #13
Ha ha I know what you mean about Christmas I'm the same ... Which is why I make my cards in January.... Ahead of the game me ... Or maybe alwAys a year behind trend ... Whatever
Enjoy your sunshine ... You deserve it
Janet .... Don't visit you're on holiday
Know what you mean about Christmas I'm the same which us why I make most of my cards in January .... AheAd of the game me.... Or a year behind trend ..... You choose.
Enjoy the sunshine ...you deserve it
Janet .... Don't visit you're I'm holiday
Hope you're having a fabulous time away. I like those tall skinny cards and yet it's a format I've never made myself.
Hi Julia,
I hope you are having a wonderful, relaxing time in the sun! The temperature is dipping here and fall has arrived. The colors are beautiful.
Your desk looks very impressive, I must say. I love what you did with the reindeer stamp - is that a bookmark?
Happy belated WOYWW,
Peace, Kay
I left a comment the other day (via my phone) but it appears to have vanished into the black hole of cyberspace :)
Hope you are having a lovely, but uneventful holiday :)

Hope you are having fun _ I left a recorded message too but my iPad wouldn't let me link here so have had to wait till I was back on my laptop to add my link.
Love that reindeer die
