Time flies, we did house renovations and two grand daughters to help out with day care and now this week they're both at school, so I'm thinking that I still spend a lot of time at my desk and that it's timely to join in again. Being creative sure does keep one busy and our minds off other things... so hope to see me back, great to see you're still crafting, take care RobynORobyn Oliverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15696500498643518734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-1880398663813113432021-01-29T07:40:53.456+00:002021-01-29T07:40:53.456+00:00Hi Julia, Oh you must never really tidy your desk...Hi Julia, Oh you must never really tidy your desk, as the shock would be too much for us:) LOL<br /><br />Happy WOYWW<br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12576612050864003090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-33796175804316377912021-01-28T19:41:28.616+00:002021-01-28T19:41:28.616+00:00What a chore that you had to eat the jelly beans i...What a chore that you had to eat the jelly beans in order to have a tube for upcycling!

I love them but rarely use them in case I use them up! You look like you have been much busier than I have been. It is a great idea to have all your scraps nearby so they can be used. Good use of the Jelly bean tube!

I admire your strength of purpose - eating the jelliybeans was a great sacrifice to make to provide storage for your brads. Oh, and 'being cheap isn't always easy' sounds like something Dolly Parton would say. Have a great crafty week.

I do keep looking at those trolleys, I could definitely use them - just don't have the room. Which means my scraps are all out of sitght, so don't get used! I'm going to try to get in the habit of doing some weekly scrapbooking (once my family tree is completed) so I will try and use my scraps up then. I don't hold out much hope! Maybe I should just concentrate on recycling/upcycling - and order a few tubes of jelly beans ... that's a much better idea!!

LOLOLOL JELLYBEANS ARE MY FAVE!! I love love them, but ONLY Jelly Belly Jellybeans. Not the "fake" ones!! That tube would have lasted about a New York minute in my presence!! Don'tcha just love your trolley? I don't know what I would do without mine. It's the best thing someone ever thought of!! LOL I love your paper stash. Mine looks like that, but tucked away VERY untidy like in a drawer! Probably have more than I will ever use in that thing! I'm cheap too or is it frugal? Let's go with the last one! LOL So, like you, whatever comes with that, bring it on! Take care and stay safe and healthy!

I still have some gorgeous Basic Grey papers, and a few others you can't get any more, but I am starting to work through them now. Aso have millions of brads and eyelets, but they're getting used up now in altered books and journals - I think they're due for a revival! Have a great week.

Your trolley reminds me that I have one on my Amazon wish list, and need to gently remind my family of that - in preparation for my birthday next month.

I have a large BOX of Basic Grey and it takes a lot to make me cut in to it, I love it so much. That, and both Bisous Zoo papers, and Rouge de Garance - spelling may be questionable on those. I still take them out to stroke every now and again but this year I am determined to use them somehow. Not sure how yet but I will.<br /><br />And only TWO scissors? What's wrong? Are you OK? :P<br /><br />Happy WOYWW - NOT at the hospital today but with a thumping headache yet determined to WOYWW nonetheless!

Love your desk, it’s always so reassuring. My room is a right tip, not just the desk as cleaning day was public holiday for Aust day so no service, and mean I. Could luxuriate a bit longer in my mess! <br />Thanks for sharing, and God bless, Shaz in Oz.x #5<br /><br /><a href="https://wonderfulwordsoflifebyshazinoz.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><b>{Wonderful Words of Life - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br /><a href="http://calligraphycards-shazinoz.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"><b>{Calligraphy Cards - Shaz in Oz}</b></a><br />Shaz in Oz.CalligraphyCardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18050100007497130952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-218645565952627143.post-58808337712061306692021-01-27T09:24:49.872+00:002021-01-27T09:24:49.872+00:00Happy Wednesday!
