What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 300

WOYWW - What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday
Desker - someone who joins in by posting a photo of their workspace on their blog and linking it here.
WOYWWer - someone who visits, comments and enjoys.
The number - the weekly count. This week is the 300th time we've come together to show and tell. 
Believe me when I say the pleasure is all mine; friendships, opportunities, ideas and inspiration that I get from looking at your desks.....worth the cost of broadband. At least. And probably it's best to skate past the amount of shopping I've done as a direct result of the influence of many a Desker. Oh my. 
I hope your interpretation of WOYWW matches mine. I hope your experience of the friendliness matches mine. Please continue as before. Because if you don't, there's no WOYWW! In the spirit of continuance then:
Relative tidiness. After the Altered Mushrooms, I realised I had other deadlines. Here you see me between other stuff (like breakfast and dressing) to create a birthday card. No panic, I've got till tea time to sort it out!  There is an Appleganza for goodness sake..my phone and my iPad. Both of which, this very week, have been declared out of date and probably too slow for effective use. Charming. My ipad is silent...it's too early. And I've noticed that I need to turn my box calendar too...funny what you see through a lens.
There's also another teaspoon/teabag holder in a tea pot shape. Watch this teapot  space!

 Please join in - doesnt matter if this is your 1st, 51st, 201st or 300th join...we wanna know what you're doing and see where your doing it..most important! Put WOYWW in your post title and link here....thank you. Three hundred times, I thank you.

    What's an Appleganza?? maybe it's too early, I can't see what you are referring too... May have done some enabling today (though I think you saw Sunday's haul already, so there isn't much else that's new.. phew!) thanks for keeping this going all this time and for all the fun that comes with it! xxx

    Morning, Julia. Well done - 300 times!!! You say the pleasure is all yours - golly - it's ours too. We have to admit to the almost only legal addiction.
    Take care. God bless.

    Where is my friend Julia, and what have you done with her desk? Just joking, because I like that you cleaned up after the hearts and rocking horse. It feels a bit like a party with a milestone, even though it's not exactly. So happy three oh oh dear friend!

    Happy to be back. Having a little trouble with a newer iPad but happy to be here. Can't believe it has been 300 weeks of desks. And no, the pleasure is all ours.

    Thanks Julia for providing somewhere for so many crafters to reach out and hold hands in the name of friendship and unashamedly show their desks - be they neat or not.
    When you look at it, people like Shaz and Shoshi, have so many people routing for them as they go through anxieties and, no doubt, tears that they would not have had had it not been for you. They are two current people I can name but there are and have been many more. Julia, you are an angel in disguise.
    Thank you for my introduction to your club.
    Hugs, Neet 10 xx

    Happy 300th WOYWW Julia!
    I like your dry comments on your desk seen through the lens.... I am intrigued by 'appleganza'... I have no idea what that is! A glut of apples would be my guess but there are no apples on your desk. Oh well..
    I do like your 'happy birthday' stamp or die. Now that is a useful thing for last minute birthday cards!
    Have a good week (It will be difficult for me to join in next week as I'll be in Italy, but I'll try. I'm sure there will be someone with a computer)

WOYWW an incredible adventure.

    Happy WOYWW, Julia, and thank you for being Desk Manager in Chief for 300 whole episodes of this epic drama!! (Not that I joined at the start.) What fun it's been, and will continue to be!

    Nothing on my desk again this week. I have a new date for my surgery - Wed. 18th March in the afternoon. I have a clear fortnight and suddenly life feels a bit more normal! I'd be grateful if you could update your "Shoshi update" in case people don't visit my blog - that is, if you've got a moment! Many thanks.

    As for what you're seeing through the lens. .I never see any of the imperfections until I start to edit and then it's just too late. If your iPad is anywhere near as old as mine, I feel ya in its outdatedness. I've pretty much given up using mine since it just crashes for everything.

    I'm back! I had a look at your Altered Mushrooms and it turned out beautiful. I love the little rocking horse on the top. I know what you mean about the Apple products, we have to buy a new ipad for little miss, for school, every two years. It's compulsory and costs a fortune. I'm interested to see what you do with the teapot thingy, my friend loves anything to do with tea and could give me some ideas.
    Have a great week,

    I have to admit also that I'm really enjoying being a part of WOYWW! I did look back at your altered "mushrooms" and love how they turned out! I have yet to get an IPad as I have a PC which sees use daily, especially on Pinterest. I'll be watching your "space" and do check back regularly besides WOYWW! Happy day!
