WOYWW - its that time again

 It Wednesday so that means it Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday - hosted by the Julia  
This photo was taken Tuesday evening as I am working late on Wednesday.  I have a few projects on the go here there are some finished cards on the top of my desk and I am in process of decorating some candles.  On my desk as well is a new dock for my iphone so it can charge while I listen to music or look at my list challenge I like to do - that I am now keeping on it, so it with me all the time for inspiration.
To look at lots of desks visit Julia's 
 and have a good nosey .

Last week I had no crafting happening so showed a picture of my desk closed so I thought I would show it how I leave it each night after I have finished crafting - with everything tidy and put away in the drawers ready for work another time. So I am afraid it was not hiding any mess, nor do I do the push and pile techinque favoured by so many crafters. lol
I did warn you I was a tidy crafter
Have a great week

Oh, I am a tidy crafter, too. :) OK, not so much...but the pictures might be kinda fun for you to take a gander at. See how the other half lives. ;) lol I do clean it up occasionally, just not on this occasion. :) Your candle projects look like they are fun.

Happy WOYWW. I thought I was a tidy crafter, but you definitely beat me! I can get a small area on my desk clear, but my lack of proper storage means that everything else is in various boxes/drawers etc. I dream of my when we move to the farmhouse and I get it all sorted. Ali x #72

Oh you are a tidy crafter but that is no problem, you just make up for those of us who are not. The more space I have, the more I fill, there is no hope for me at all! Happy WOYWW, Anne x #65

I'm a tidy [well, fairly tidy] crafter too cos my crafting space is what my customers see so it just wouldn't do to make too much mess would it? I think I would lose the business :-)

I am a partially tidy crafter - there are some things I absolutely like to stick to... ink pads back in the right place (so I can find them when I want them), stamps back in their wallet (ditto)... but there's always a build up of paper scraps and other bits and pieces. And when I'm really in the middle of something then everything will be out until it's done... and then goes away again!! Great looking cards and candles, and happy WOYWW to you!

Ahh, love your desk and your passion for tidiness, Nicky! Pretty candles!

Have a great couple of weeks!! Like a lot of us in the States, I suspect, I won't be WOYWWing next week because I'll be in the kitchen prepping for Thanksgiving. All the best! Darnell #41

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...
