My new year edition, late to the party as is usual for the past year! Wishing you all the best for 2026, May it be everything it needs to be for you, and if I can help in any way to make that happen, let me know!
My desk..hmm. Underused except for some admin and month end paperwork (which is a joke as since the fire we haven’t actually been trading, but lots of purchases for the rebuild to log and still a VAT bill to wrestle. Bonkers really!
There is evidence of a Christmas present, some wax seals. Kathy On The Hill sent me a bunch of stuff for seal making and I have had a brief go, it’s a bit addictive actually, I can see the paraphernalia popping up in desk shots quite a lot this year. Inevitably I now have to buy wax and *cough* one or two more seals…the one I’ve used here although it’s not clear, is a balloon dog! So cute. The notebook on the right has my Great Niece's ‘writing’ on it. She’s at the stage of needing a new page (of my business payments notebook in this case) for every mark she makes. I’d forgotten all these little things. And that if I sit at my desk, both of the little ones have to drag a dining chair in, get situated and then fiddle with all that is dangerous on my desk and completely ignore anything that might be safe/clean/allowed. It’s been a re-learning!
That’s me, now I have to get on with some general housework that has largely been hidden or ignored by Christmas decor….check out more creative desks over at our Sarah’s - join in, it’s free, fun and apart from certain photos, tidy!

I remember all the crafting with little ones but even ours are growing up fast now so things change quickly. Hoping the new build goes well and the business can recover soon for you both.

Wishing you lots of energy and good luck in 2026 as you rebuild the business.
Hope the rebuild goes smoothly and that everything goes well this year. Hugs Angela #13
I have quite a few seals and need to get back to using them. I have no excuse as I did buy a set of coloured waxes, either Amazon or Temu not sure which. I have not seen the Balloon dog one but I must have a look for it, love it to bits! Happy woyww with hugs Angela x7x
Just chuckling at the idea of dipping seals in wax! Mmm can you tell I'm not a paper crafter 🤣 Best of luck with all your new year ventures. Keep us updated on your progress. All the best for 2026. x x Jo 🌈
I've never done any wax work.... the seals sound good. I did smile at the story of your little people at your desk! Good luck with the rebuild and take care both of you. Helen #3
It made me smile that the little ones want to play with the things they shouldn’t! That’s how we all learn. 😀
I hope the rebuild this year goes smoothly, Julia, and wish you all the best for 2026.

Housework? what's that? If I cant do it at my desk, it can wait! Thanks for your kind words Julia and happy New Year! Robyn 4
What a pain you still have to do the VAT and books….hope it’s quicker cos there’s less to put in but I doubt it! Well done on allowing the littlies a bit of freedom and learning opportunities, that’s how we all learned!
I should imagine wax seals are very satisfying to do.
