WOYWW - Week 714

Hello Everyone,

Goodness, it's been quite a while! Lots of reasons most of which I will resist boring you with here. Instead here's a shot of my workdesk, such as it is, today. 

As you can see I'm still working on a makeshift desk, actually a camping table,  but it's at least in what will be the new craftroom. I'll not deny there's lots to do yet. The old craft desk had served me well for something like sixteen years.

Beautiful but far too big. So, regretfully, it had to go. It's now in a local primary school and I hope the children there get as much pleasure using it as I have. It certainly took the sting out of parting with it to know it was going to a very good cause.

A new, smaller, desk has been ordered and delivered. It's flatpack so I await the help of a handyman to put it together. I look forward to posting a photo very soon. 

 

Time for scrapping is short but I've managed a few (13 so far) pages by working in short bursts. Here's just a few. 

That's Christmas and winter done with for now. The days are warming, sunshine has even been spotted hereabouts and I can feel that Spring is just around the corner. Happy days ahead!

Have a wonderful WOYWW and a fabulously crafty week ahead. 

Bye for now,
Elizabeth

Happy New Year - 2023

 

Wishing you all you wish for you and yours for the coming year.

WOYWW - Week 707

I know I've been missing in action for a few weeks but I just had to join in with Julia's What's In Your Workdesk Wednesday and wish you all a 

Very Merry Christmas! 

There's not much to show on my desk today. Just the glittery gold Christmas album and the last page made waiting to be filed in it. It's looking a bit too bulky now, weighs a tonne too, so time to order a new album. 

Here's a close up of the page. The design is a good way of using up lots of leftover strips of paper. 

I've not been able to do much scrapping, or much of anything really, because of arthritis in my hands. All the packing and unpacking with moving house has caused a flare-up so I've been advised to take it a bit easier for a while. Not too difficult as it is Christmas so I'm giving myself a break. 

I hope to get back to normal again in the New Year.

ln the meantime, I wish all of you wherever you are, whatever you are doing, a wonderful holiday weekend.
