WOYWW New Year

I'm joining up with Julia over at Stamping Ground for What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday. I haven't been up to a lot creatively this week though I am still taking photos for the 366 challenge. Yes, I've lasted a whole six days lol.

I am still working on getting stuff up into my new craft room. I haven't decided on a desk yet. For now I'm working on a table. It is actually working quite well. I might just use the money for a new computer as my computer broke - as well as my Kindle. I contacted Amazon who was quite helpful  but didn't tell me anything that I didn't already know. However they did give me a small credit towards a new Kindle which I have now purchased. It's not as fancy as my old 8.9 HDX but it will do. I use my Kindle a lot.

Anyway now onto my desk. I've included a couple of pictures of the rest of the room. It's getting there. I am pulling out a project so hopefully next week I'll have more to show!

I did not realise I had so many craft books! YIKES!

I still have some of my daughter's things - boxed up and ready to go. Lol.

I'm off to look around at some of the other desks

  1. Like the look of your new craft room - what fun. I still have a few bits and pieces belonging to my sons - it's all going back to them this year - I'm on a mission :-) Anne x #34

  3. It's a good job I've given myself the whole of January to sort and rearrange my space as day two was rubbish. All I seemed to do was give it a good coat of looking at haha

  12. I loved sorting out my studio after we moved, and getting everything organised. For some time, though, I couldn't find ANYTHING and everything took four times as long to achieve as a result lol! I love yours so far, and I look forward to when you share some more pics of your progress. Thanks for your visit and your kind words - you are right - chemo really takes it out of you! I had all sorts of plans of stuff I was going to do and just felt too ill to do any of it! I am so glad it's all over now.

    Happy WOYWW,

  16. I had planned to visit sooner, but not too long after I linked to Julia, my electricity went off. It came back on a short time ago, so now I'm trying to catch up with everyone.

    You have an absolutely wonderful layout so far. I am truly impressed. You warned me stamping can be addicting, but I don't think so until I get some stamp pads, which are apparently needed for stamping (grin).

    Thanks for visiting me while I was offline freezing in the dark (sad, but true, I hate to admit). Happy WOYWW on Thursday from #1.

    The first thing I saw when I arrived at your blog was a piece of cake - every blog should be like this!! :D
    Thanks for stopping by x

  21. Happy New Year Sharon! Your new space looks lovely - I actually like the purple/lavender walls (and I'm not a 'purple lover' even...) About the bookbinding technique you asked: it's not difficult to do at all! I teach the technique in live workshops and plan on making a new online workshop including this binding, but you can also learn it over at LK Ludwig - her workshop is called "Just Three Journals" http://gryphonsfeather.typepad.com/thegryphonsfeatherstudio/just-three-journals.html ) Happy (belated) woyww and have a great weekend! Love from the Netherlands, Marit #29

  22. Your new crafty space looks great. Very modern and clean. Sometimes you have to work in it to decide what works best don't you. Glad you got your kindle sorted. I must admit I still prefer proper books, despite the space they take up. Thanks for visiting me earlier. I am very late catching up this week.
