Here you are Neet, nothing's changed whilst you're busy getting better....
I'm going to hazard a guess that there won't be any shock at the sight of this particular desk, I'm counting on the idea that you'd be disappointed if it was in any other state. It's remarkable really, considering I haven't actually used the desk for anything vaguely crafty. Until last weekend. I went to a friend's SU! Card making marathon on Saturday and made some lovely Christmas cards. I had sort of decided not to make any this year as they need doing soon and my heart just hasn't been in it. So I found myself remembering what I used to say to people that came to my workshops and marathons....removing yourself from the house and crafting in company can very often be just what you need. Luxury.
Join us over at Sarah's for a look at more interesting desks than this!

Good to see you Julia, and a very busy desk! I have kind of stalled with my cards but am nearly there (I think!) It sounds like you hit a perfect spur to get you going! Happy WOYWW Helen #2
Well I'm glad you have managed a crafty session it will have done the world of good to get together with fellow crafters. Don't stress about C cards - just do stuff that makes you feel good. I've tried a few C cards but not very successfully. I may have to do a bit of hand stitching to bling them up🤣x x Jo 🌈
It's good to hear you've had some craft therapy...it's just the best way of getting through difficult times. I've made a few cards but I have also bought some this year so don't stress...in the whole measure of things it's not important.
Hugs,

Glad that getting out of the house to craft helped Julia. Sorry for the generic comment but I wanted to visit everyone before I start packing - early start tomorrow. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
Blimey, is that bag still going? That’s lasted ok, nice to see it’s still in action! I’m glad you enjoyed your crafting day, nice to sit down and do someone else’s kits. I’m not making cards this year, not enough time!
Hope you’re all ok,

Good advice from a wise woman :D. I agree - getting out of the house (and out of your head) often helps . Hope you are doing ok and things are progressing. And I hope you enjoyed the workshop.
Happy mad-dash WOYWW!

I was going to ask if your bag was a Jan special and then read her comment, so I am guessing it is. I definitely agree that getting out and crafting in company is like a little holiday! Happy WOYWW. Angela #10
Hi darling Julia, I hope you get over your feelings though I can understand it. It's a shame you don't live closert you could have come to our card making play tomorrow, Marathon might be a good name for it as I have to keep them working lol! or they wont stop talking and get nothing done Lol! Wishing you a happy woyww. Hugs Angela x11x
I’m glad you went to your friend’s workshop, Julia. I hope it was just what you needed. Sending hugs,
Happy WOYWW

Glad you found a bit o mojo! Nothing better than sharing a laugh or two with friends.
Such a busy desk with lots to see and lots going on. If you;ve found your mojo, please tell me how...mines got off again somewhere! Packing up to go House/dog sitting again so just nipping round before I un plug my laptop!! Happy WOYWW ((Lyn)) #13
Bery busy desk, and good to get a start on Christmas Cards! Those people are right, social gatherings and crafting is probably just what you need. 🍂❤️Lindart #14
I dont go out much except for shopping and appointments Julia but sounds like crafting therapy with others is just what you needed.
I mailed my first Christmas cards 3, overseas 2 to US and one to France plus two other cards, birthday and sympathy. So nearly on homeward run with making Christmas cards but must do inserts etc. My list is too long but that is life. I think its important to remember.
I always find your desk so cheering as reminds me of mine! Thinking praying for Neet too.
Happy belated WOYWW, Shaz in Oz.x#3
Julia, have a Very Happy Belated WOYWW!
Good morning, Miss Julia!
Go you on working on C. cards. I have to say I started much later this year and it shows. I hope to reinstate my Reindeer Club in 2026 and stick to it. Want to join me? misery loves company LOL
Always a pleasure to see you in my studio.,
Creative Blessings & Hugs! ~ Kelly #15
Oopsey, a bit late this week sorry, seem to be struggling with lots of things at the moment...well I'm here now and that's all that matters.
Yep that sure is a Julia desk - LOL. Glad you found a space to make some cards, I'haven't .... yet!
