Tis true ... I have had a bit of a tidy up! It was through necessity really ... after being away the weekend before last ... well ... when I came back ... the place looked like a real tip and I could n't find a thing!
On top of that we have a viewing later today ... Oh yes ... the house is on the market and hopefully a lovely couple will turn up at precisely 1pm this afternoon and offer us full asking price :0) We are on the move ... to a new craft studio ... I say that knowing that you will take into consideration I have n't actually found aforementioned studio yet ... and of course ... John is digging his heals in ... as per usual ... and insisting that we get a kitchen too ... and a bathroom ... and at least 3 bedrooms ... and a garage ... his list just goes on and on and on!
So lovely WOYWWers ... I have done a spin and everything ... just so you get the full benefit of my ... erm ... tidying ... looky at my dies ... well my nice dies anyway ... I have a few old and very dodgy ones that are tucked away in a draw ... you will just have to make do with looking at the nice ones ... all lined up and easily accessible! The cutting station is even being used for cutting ... how is that for a turn up for the books!
Oh and I have one of Lord Tim of Holtz's configurations out and ready to play with ... boy am I impressed with the price and quality of these ... LOVE LOVE LOVE them already! You know Tim ... the man that can light up all of London's streets just by looking at them while he fills the needs of all the needy the world over with just a spritz of a perfect pearl mist and a wave of a manilla tag!
I must away ... I saw Mrs No Smoking Nurse earlier this week ... I am off to see Dr Whatsisname today ... I can't remember why ... but I am guessing all women of a certain age will understand :0)
Have a good one ... and if you are wondering why I am flashing me desk ... check out Julia's place ... she does a great job of explaining ...
Laters!

Yes, we can see some desk there. Just. Good luck with your viewers. I am sure your configuration piece will be fantastic, can't wait to get one!
I just love your posts - you make me smile even on dismal mornings.
Good luck with Dr Whatsisname!
Desk looks nice and tidy - and what a lot (and I mean a serious lot) of ink blending tools you have. Oh WOW. #47

There is nothing like the knowledge of strangers perusing your home to get you motivated to tidying up! LOL Your desk looks so neat... it must be contagious as Julia has space on hers too!
Can't wait to have a go at those boxy things myself...have fun
xoxo Sioux
Hi ya
great piccies, looks very organised, will keep me fingers crossed for this afternoons veiwing,have great day, happy WOYWW, sue,(17)x
Oh Linda you are so right - 'our ' glorious five year plan list has two items on for me:
must have a mahoosive kitchen eating area ( NO LAUNDRY ITEMS AT ALL JUST COOKING AND EATING)
with a top model wish dosher (dishwasher) Niall say can it be an Au Pair?
AND
a two roomed studio - one as a one person hermit shell place and the second the classroom for 12 which will be full of light and raw makings
must look just like Monet's studio in Etretat
BUT MINE will be in the canal du midi , landuedoc roussillon region
you may come to the new home warming if you wish it will also be my fiftieth Birthday party....
Blimey, that John is just so demanding isn't he?? ROFL Are you feeling ok hunny? Only, your desk top is ... erm.. visible LOL Fingers's crossed for the viewing... I have a good feeling about it! xx
Great workspace and hoping you get your full asking price this afternoon:)
I have one of those configurations of Tim's and they are fantastic quality aren't they Linda. Your crafting area looks very tidy and how nice to have a cutting area, I wish LOL. Have a lovely day, Tracy Evans x
I hope that person arrives to make the offer on your house.... wink wink! Your dies look great!
Robin
Men can be sooooo inconsiderate sometimes I agree! All I'd need apart from the craft studio would be an en-suite bathroom and a kettle - LOL.
Hope all your appointments went well.
Loving all your neatly stored dies btw!

Looks like the packing's going well. Don't do what I did and unpack as 'I just need...'
Very nice space and supplies...drool! What is in that book on the large ring? Just curious..I am thinking a go to list of techniques?
Hope the viewing went ok
No wonder you had to be tidy lol
mandi xx
hope everything went well with the viewing. Have to ask...do you even need a kitchen if you have a craft room? Isnt that what take away is for - hee hee. caroline #16

I do love the Configurations! I have three sitting here beside me that my hubby is supposed to give me for Christmas, but he hasn't put them away yet... torture!!!
Enjoy the nice and tidy...if its anything like mine,it will only last a day or two!! good luck with mrs nurse and dr.whatshisname>>
OMW...you SOOO make me laugh...which is very good for my soul!! I would def push for the bathroom...kitchen maybe...who needs to sleep if they have an AMAZING STUDIO!!
LOVE YA GIRLIE....love your countdown clocks....I will live vicariously through you!!
OMG to have that many sponge blenders and dies. What fun.
Lots of house selling going on this week! What would you do if the full asking price was contingent on all those crafting supplies staying behind!!! Staying in Cambridge?
Hugs

Fab desk, fab photos and a fab post altogether! There's a nice big house for sale along our street - move over here and you could teach me all your inky stampy tricks! hehe
I can look into my crystal ball and can see you will soon have your craft room...and there will be a bathroom and a bedroom too! Happy WOYWW

Exciting times ahead - hope you find a palace for you both. A bit of tidying justifies a good old splodge and ink up now...

The tidy fairy has been to my desk too.....hooray!!
I NEED one of those configuration boxes......I wonder what you are going to do with yours....Can't wait to see!
A.xx(14)
P.S - joined Simon Says Stamp and Show challenge two weeks running ...woo hoo!
You are a hoot! Your post had me giggling away and now my hubby is giving me funny looks!
And then I enlarged your pics and started drooling over all the yummy stash! My poor DH, having to live with such a nut!
Thank you for the peek and I will be back to see what you do wih the configuration box!
Happy WOYWW!
As always, your post is entertaining. Not sure what a configuration is, but I am a bit concerned about you. First you show a relatively clean desk, then you tell us about not one, but TWO doctor visits last week. I hope all is well. Happy belated WOYWW from #1 who feels like # last.
