WOYWW 84

-
Its that addictive time of week when we get to go on a trip around the world
nosey oops looking at everyones desk
If you would like to join in the fun pop over to
On the top of my desk this week is a lot of goodies I brought from the sizzix sale
(I only found out about the sale through someone blogs on WOYWW)
This little lots cost me £24 which was some birthday and Christmas money I had
I haven't opened them yet as I had a card to finish before
I can up pack and find a tidy home for my new stash
On my desk you can see a card that I have finished just behind
my new dies storage that I made earlier this week
If you want to see how I made it click HERE
You can also see a plastic storage box that holds all my embossing folders
There are also the sheets that I print challenges onto that I want to do
See I just cannot help being organised
In fact looking at my desk in this photo is properly the most messy it gets
This is the final large drawer of my desk
It hold an organisor to store all the non Christmas Cards I make
My letterpress
Some sizzix texture plates
The plastic storage box on my desk at the moment normally lives in that space you can see
Theres my making memorys tag maker
My ribbon box
Some adhesives and my glitter glues
Under the glitter glues is a small box that holds all the metal tag rings
Thats it for this Wednesday
Thanks for looking

Oooh look at all those goodies. And I love your roll top desk. I used to have one when I was little. I've since out grown it as it was made especially for a little girl. Now I want a big girl one like yours. LOL

Wow organised or what. Lucky you getting those sizzix bargains. I did know of the Sale but had a big expenditure prior to Christmas so had to put a stop and say do I really need it - Yes I do but not my bank balance ha ha. Big Hugs JO.xx **19**

I keep getting email about the Sizzix sale but I have no money!! and no one near me seems to do anything I want, and if they do, it's the full price! Lovely organised desk, Can I borrow your tidy fairy please! Happy WOYWW!!

Well you are very organised, I love the die folder you have made, I'm struggling with my organisation of stuff. Yes my light tent is fab, but I now need some lights for a brighter picture. It certainly helps to cut annoying shadows out of a picture, I'm no good with tweaking pics on the computer, this hobby is starting to get a bit expensive lol! I can find out where my hubby got it from if you're interested, xx

What a fab desk this week Nicky

Love the storage folder for your nesties….practical and pretty to boot!

And yes, that is a spice rack on my desk. I managed to get two at half price when a new shop was opening locally. They are perfect storage for all my flowers, brads, eyelets and card candy and as an added bonus, they look so pretty sitting in my shelf.

What an incredibly well organised desk. I would be scared to use that lovely piece of furniture with all the glues and sprays I use.

You must have one of the smartest desks on WOYWW! I'm with you on the tidy and organised route - I just can't work in a mess - well, it's a mess when I'm crafting, but I have to tidy up immediately I've finished - sometimes I tidy during crafting, and need things again, so have to get them out again - lol.

Thanks for already coming to visit my desk.

ps - those Sizzix dies look great for the money!

I don't know how you do it - staying in such a small space - I have an entire room for art stuff and even with that sometimes it spills out to the living room or the office!

I see you succumbed to the Sizzix sale too! I got some right bargains in there. I wish I'd gone for that stars & swirls embossing folder though, your baby card look brilliant. Ah well, maybe next time!!!

I'm catching up today - since another WOYWW rolls around tomorrow. I'm glad I did - your post reminds me that I was enabled about that same Sizzix sale - here on WOYWW too. I guess maybe that's what should be on my desk tomorrow - using it all for cards. Looks like you've been quite busy since last Wed.

No Cards But A Promarker Storage Project!

Sorry not a card but I have been working on this, hopefully some cards soon. Anyone who know me knows I am a very organised crafter My promarkers have been driving me mad as they were in a number of different containers and I never seem to pick up the right container, so I decided I needed to sort it This is a CD storage box from Tescos it comes with 100 sleeves to put CD in You can find it HERE  but there are many others out there Being sad I had some Pro markers in my handbag so was able to try them in the shop for size! Each sleeve holds seven promakers and each section comfortable hold 10 sleeves or eleven with a little bit of a squeeze As I said I like things very organised or as my DH says OCD! I used some adhesive labels in my Craft Robo and cut out the little circles this way they were still attached to the backing sheet I could colour them and then peel them off with my poky tool and stick to the ends of the pens I also have put a coloured circle on the bar of ...

Promarker Storage Update

As some of you know I tend to be a little bit of an OCD crafter - I like everything to have a place and when I have finished using it that is where it goes. Now when I first started collecting Promarkers I used a travel CD case to transport them and it has worked really well you can see the original  HERE . I then also started to collect some flexi markers and the promarkers brought out some limited edition promarkers so I decided I needed them!        This meant my storage box was no longer large enough so I started to look at ways to improve it I brought a slightly larger box from E-Bay then set to improving the insides I realised if I made some boxes for the pens I could store more in a row, than using the CD sleeves. So using an A4 piece of paper I scored out a box with two dividers so the pens do not fall over (I did warn you I was OCD)  This is the A4 piece of card with the score lines dotted and the solid lines are...
