WOYWW - 13 June 2012

Well it is Wednesday once again, and this week I have remembered!!!  Last week with the long weekend I really got my days in a muddle and did not realise that it was Wednesday until it was nearly over.

So onto the subject of WOYWW (Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday) it is time to join Julia over at Stamping Ground to look at workdesks around the country (& the world)...

As for mine, in this little corner of Lincolnshire, my desk upstairs is very quiet.  In fact it has been deserted!  the only thing sat on it at the moment is a Stampin Up catalogue (where I have just discovered that we don't get the new 2012-13 catalogue in the UK until September :( I already have my list of new products I HAVE to have made.), and this layout that was started at the Crop last week and is now finished...


So if I'm not working at my desk where am I working? Well on my Lap of course, with the help of a 'lap table' the last 2 evenings have been spent sat in the living room cutting out templates to be used in a variety of stock items. 

On Friday a big box of 'stuff' arrived and it needs to be ready for the Annual Cockpitfest celebration held at Newark Air Museum this weekend.  We will be taking the birds and staying overnight in our caravan on site. 


The box under the lap table is where all the stock that is completed lives, I hope to be able to get the last finished this evening & I then need to create some new price tags for items I have not sold before (yet another use for my Sizzix tag dies & my cuttlebug :) - it really is great how you can use them for anything LOL).

  6. I'm impressed that you can work on your lap. I think I'm too fidgety to make a good desk.

  15. Hi Helen - I love all the owly stuff - I have a little collection of things owly. Now then, Dumflings...... my sister Annie and I call our needlefelting machines dumfers because thats the noise they make when they are dumfing the wool rovings into the felt. So my little dumflings are just tiny little experimental pictures made with wool, yarn and felt. Someimtes I use my dumfing machine, sometimes my little hand dumfer. if you want to find out more follow either of these links.
