Brick Dust!

WOYWW2Yup! It is that time of the week again ... Wednesday ... and a certain group of people ... led by the very well written Mrs Dunnit will be sharing the contents of their desks with you. This practice is called WOYWW ... an acronym for What's On Your Work desk Wednesday!
There is brick dust on mine and sometimes a drill or WOYWW2a a hammer. John has made one of his rare trips up to my craft room to put up some much needed shelves. I am happy about this fact ... truly I am!
But ... If he asks me one more time ... What is this for? Do you really need all that? ... I am going to kill him ... slowly with a bone folder and possibly a pokey tool ... mind you that would have to be submitted for evidence and I could n't manage without my pokey tool ... so a bone folder and a pair of deckle edged scissors then :0)
I am pleased now they are up ... his latest comment ... Can you get any more on them? ... Duh!!! Yeah!!!
Now for some actual crafting ...

What a fun crafting area. I love the purple!

Your space looks fab, the shelves will be over-filled very soon. Your story puts me in mind of the day DH helped me empty my stamp shelves to move. Armfuls...and the inevitable "&*!*!, are they all this price?". I have ever since removed price labels. But it doesn't matter now. Too late! I'm feeling abit faint over your collection of the Holtz inky applicator thingys...one for each colour I presume? Man, I thought I was obsessive!!

Carmen said...

Waaaw, I am now having space envy! Love what you have done there and the colour is just yum! Had to click for a closer look at the applicators after Julias comment - blimey - and the carousel is pretty cool too.

I just love having a nosey into other peoples crafting spaces, and yours is no exception, looking good.. and not to worry, my other asks those kinda 'whats that for' questions all the time..i politely tell him not to let the door hit him on the way out :) lol

Helen said...

i am filled with envy - a whole craft room! I have to make do with my living room (there is only me here) and at the moment don't even have a table to work on - my knees protest!!
I look forward to seeing some more of the art you create there.

I've been told "no more shelves" so I have resorted to leaving things on the floor. Love your crafting space but it looks a bit tidy to me!

Ooh that colour on your wall is absolutely fabulous ;-) it looks sooooo tidy considering your OH has recently been in there working. What's on my desk is an absolute mess as usual :O

Well now I know where you 'make art'! My DH asked me once, ages ago now before the shop, how much is an average stamp - I told him £5 and then he started counting.....had to rush him out of the room pretty darn quick I can tell you.

Lorraine said...

Linda M. Cain said...
