Well Deskers, time is marching on and you know how hard it is to find desk time in the Holiday Season. Not so Chez Dunnit!
I must have forgotten or neglected something, but until I remember what, I'm OK about being at my desk. And I'm working on next year's workshops already. To say I'm a bit smug would be to really understate it. Sorry! It is a bit of a mess, but I'm happy with it! Not all evidence of Christmas has gone - there's the red ribbon and bakers twine that I used to tart up a candle/jar thing yesterday....and the solitary card on the iPad stand. No evidence of music or spoken word accompanying me. No. Miss Dunnit and her Musician are home and they're watching naff movies on tv, and I love to listen to them groaning and laughing over them! So if you can steal five minutes from your preparations, please share your desk with us. If you can't, we more than understand! If you don't visit this blog on any day other than a Wednesday, I wish you a happy Christmas. Whatever you're doing, do it with love!
A very Happy Christmas to you and the family, too Julia! I am liking the look of the workshop prep on your desk - well done for planning ahead! Helen xx
ReplyDeleteConsider five minutes stolen, Julia. Love the card on your desk this morning.
ReplyDeleteHave a fantastic Christmas - whether things are forgotten or not isn't important - just enjoy being together round a celebratory table.
Take care. God bless.
Margaret #1 How did I ever get to that place?!
Merry Christmas to you and your really planning ahead wow have fun setting up your workshop hugs Nikki 3
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Julia!!! The baker's twine on your desk reminds me that I have not found the 3 spools of baker's twine I bought. This is not readily available in the Philippines and when it is, it is very expensive! So I really have to find it! As you know I am always happy to see a mess!!! Happy WOYWW!! patsy
ReplyDeleteWishing you and yours a very Wonderful Christmas. I see you have no snow either. Very strange weather here. But on the nicer side. I'll keep a little of the Christmas music playing, time went too fast, I don't think I even played all my CD's. The NEW YEAR is not that far away. Maybe I should get started on my ATC's and get them to you before you have your gathering.
ReplyDeleteENJOY the Festivities.
Lovely to have Miss D home - is the romance serious then?
ReplyDeleteThere is a change in my desk, well there will be shortly as I remembered I need another card and pronto. Set the alarm early and now am going to disappear into the realm of peace (my craft room) and create chaos again with the die cutter. That is if I can find the die that is going around in my head. Did I get that one?
Have a wonderful Christmas and all the best for 2016.
Hugs, Neet xx 10ish xx
Your desk looks well loved today, dear Julia. And I can't begin to believe GREEN grass outside your door. Are you sure you live in England, not the Mediterranean?
ReplyDeleteI hope you, Mr. D, Miss D., Music Man, and anyone else who shows up, have a wonderful Christmas. I also hope you get to see your folks during that time, too. Having everyone together must make you very happy. It feels festive to me!
Steady on...that's a bit organised! You haven't even got a deadline..... :-D
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas, dear old Mucker...hope it's a good 'un!
Hugs, LLJ 11 xx
Well done you on being so organised.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous Christmas Julia.

Help Julia I've mucked up the Linky. Numbers 13/14 are wrong. Sorry put it down to a Christmas mush brain
ReplyDeleteLynn x
Number 15 is right. So sorry.
DeleteHave a lovely Christmas the Dunnit family. May it be filled with goodness all day xx
Morning Julia.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about having time to spare, I think Christmas being on a Friday means that I was more or less ready last weekend and then have spare time to do whatever I want. Enjoy the time, you probably haven't forgotten anything so just relax and let the mojo go to town.
Have a great Christmas.

Good morning Julia....I did try to show you my desk but couldnt find it sorry.....I do have some rather nice floors in the new part of the bungalow though so my desk can wait :-) I really do hope you and your lovely family have a great Christmas and 2016 brings you all you wish for yourself. Biggest hugs.

Merry Christmas to you Julia!
ReplyDeleteSurprised to so little evidence of Christmas. It's funny how we move on so quickly. Merry Christmas! Diane #16
ReplyDeleteHi Julia, Merry Christmas to you and a Crafty Happy New Year.

Not even had chance to think re next years classes- still debating whether to do any. Happy Christmas Julia hope it will be all that you want it to be. Anne x # 27 or 28 I think! X
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas Julia, hope you have a lovely time with the family
ReplyDeleteJan S no 28
Most impressed Mrs D! I love the stamp you are using! Wishing you all the Happiest of Christmases! Hugs, Chrisx 31
ReplyDeleteSending wonderful Christmas wishes to you and yours during this joyous holiday season! I notice you don't have snow either; here in the Southern US we are expecting 70 degrees and rain. Very unusual!
ReplyDeleteGlenda #33
You can be proud of yourself! Thinking ahead, and preparing stuff while you have 5 minutes and while you are in the mood for it.
ReplyDeleteIt must be great to have daughter + musician home. That'sone of the nice things about Christmas.
Wishing you and yours a verylovely and peaceful Christmas,
Blesins,
Lisca
Merry Christmas Julia! I really enjoy the WOYWW link-ups and take part whenever I can. I hope to be back next week! Thanks for being such a great hostess!
ReplyDeleteWell done on getting ahead :) Have a WONDERFUL Christmas xxx Soojay x
ReplyDeleteAlways good when you can work ahead. Merry Christmas and happy new year. Peg
ReplyDeleteI love the card - such a refreshing change to see something other than green and red at the moment, and I love the grasses/seedhead stamps - absolutely beautiful. I feel a mauve moment coming on! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas,
ReplyDeleteDiana #22
Hi Julia, Here's hoping you have a lovely Christmas, with warm wishes from both of us to all of you, Shaz xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Juli, love your card - reminds me of Spring which I'm hoping is just around the corner :) You wouldn't want to see my desk, really you wouldn't, it's currently strewn with the fallout from last minute cardmaking but I hope you'll enjoy my post this week all the same. Wishing you a wonderful holiday. Hugs, Elizabeth x #40
ReplyDeleteHave a very merry Christmas! Now, I know you guys have interesting words to describe things -- but what are naff movies? Tee hee
ReplyDeleteI'm late in joining in because I was having all kinds of trouble. Better late than never!
Hugs,
Kay
End of a long day but just managed five minutes to share a few bits with our WOYWWers. x Jo
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea - who knows what we will see!
ReplyDeleteYour desk is still busy, just like the majority of us trying to finish up projects. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas!
ReplyDeleteCarol N #34
Now that looks like a lovely card that is coming to life on your desk. I think we all have found a way of keeping those much needed craft tools on our desk no matter what we are working on. Thanks Julia for another year of woyww and I wish you and your family a wonderful christmas and new year..
ReplyDeletesandra de @25
I somehow find it disheartening that more people who linked up didn't stop by to visit you.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and your entire family have the most wonderful Christmas. Your kindness has shown from Day 1 that I "met" you. You deserve the honor of being Queen, if only for one day a week!
