Hello fellow WOYWWers. Not so nervous this week as you've welcomed me with open arms and such lovely comments. Thank you all. For those of you who haven't got a clue what I'm on about head over to Julia's Stamping Ground and find out about how to join in the fun.
I promised you a more detailed gander of my workspace so here goes - I've started a bit of a flower production line for a couple of challenges which will keep me occupied for a while (not that I've got that long!) On the left you can see the treasure I got from my mate Julie in Australia. She is a creative wonder and I'm gonna have to make some special projects to lavish these on. Had a bit of a sesh with Flitter Glu/Mega Flakes and black card and there's a tag in the initial stages of production.
The main feature today however is my noticeboard. Seem to remember mentioning it back in the dim and distant past and I got it done :) It's a magnetic board with shelf added (by my wonderful OH) so challenges can be noted and treasures from crafting friends can be displayed. That includes the altered house created by Son 3 to give me inspiration. He is such a thoughtful young man with a real creative side himself.
Time to wrap up so I can visit you guys out there (OK, have a nosey!) See you v. soon with that flower project - now I've said it!! Hugs, Buttons x
well those flowers are beautiful and i just know you will make something stunning with them!
ReplyDeleteTHE NOTICEBOARD LOOK GREAT..FULL OF INSPIRATION AS WELL...
have a great week HUGS TRACE x 48
My word, you eter a lot of challenges, that takes a discipline...as you've probably come to realise, I talk a lot about these things........*sigh*.
ReplyDeleteThe flower is so pretty, I love it when people commit right here in the public glare of WOYWW - makes me happy - so am looking forward to seeing your next piece, can already tell it'll be fab!
Love your desk - love the flowers. Good luck with your challenges.

ReplyDeleteIt's good to see you back again, it is very addictive. Your flower looks beautiful and love your notice board - so many challenges too but if anyone can rise to the occasion it is you. Your Son sounds like he might be a crafty soul too.....Hugs, Anne x #32
ReplyDeleteSaw the notice board first and the tag at the bottom of it. Tidy, workable space too. Happy woyww.

Great to see where other people work - wouldn't dare show mine!! Look forward to seeing the flower project - they should come with a warning though 'cos they are addictive!!
ReplyDeleteThose flowers are looking amazing, and your noticeboard is a brilliant idea, and must provide lots of inspiration as well as organisation...

What a great way to keep your inspiration close by and looking so wonderful. I love all the texture on your drying - curling tag!! WOYWW Hugs to you from Helen 72
ReplyDeleteLove those flowers. Your desk looks so productive too. Enjoy your crafting. Hugs Rita 88 xx

Your noticeboard is very eyecatching and very practical as well! You are so organised with your flowers, too. Is that an Ott-lite I see peeping in there? I have the same one in black!
ReplyDeleteAww, bless you Buttons for your kind remarks on my blog today! In answer to your question, the mask is an item I'm altering, and it was heading in a Steampunk direction but then I got sidetracked and it hasn't been finished yet. I need to crack on with it, so thank you for the sideways reminder!
ReplyDeleteLove your little noticeboard - I think I need one of those at my desk too, cos I keep losing track of what I should be doing!!! The flowers you're making look great too... sigh....
A lovely hive of activity!
ReplyDeleteGreat fun stuff on your desk ! Glad you came back to join us ! Ali #56
ReplyDeleteThe flowers are gorgeous and that notice board is so beautiful. What a great idea. Don't you love that kids give you things to put up, my wall are covered in littlies art (even though two of them are 21 now).
ReplyDeleteHave a great week.

My gosh thats so organised and looks really interesting. I would love to have a ferret through that lot! Too ashamed to show mine (((hangs head in shame and stands in corner)) - love the noticeboard that is a good idea. BTW is that my glue there......! Cx
ReplyDeleteHi there Buttons, So glad that you are getting brave in showing your workspace and yes do love a number of things there that shelf and notice board are super, but so are your flowers. Thanks so much for popping over and thanks for sharing ~ happy WOYWW! Shaz in Oz. x #28
