What's on your workdesk Wednesday 208

Back Wednesday again and our trip around the world looking at creative places. Pop over to Stamping Ground to find out more and take a journey.

Well, it has been another hectic week, with party preparations in full swing. I have been busy making all kinds of decorations and baking cakes to go in the freezer. Am pleased to say the nasty bugs are going away which has made progress slow recently!




Here you can see some of the tea light holders I have been making out of jam jars. There is a paper decoration I am experimenting with and some napkins to decoupage with. Some of my decorations can be viewed in the previous three posts.

I have been meaning to share a picture of this lovely trolley I found in a shop in Norfolk, how could I not buy it? After the Tea Party it will be put to use as extra craft space!



 
Thank you for all the get well wishes, I hope to visit more desks this week, apologies for my recent poor attendance. I am sure you all know how hectic it can get sometimes.

    It’s amazing that the internet can bring together so many likeminded people and I’m grateful that WOYWW has also brought along so many new friends, thanks to Julia.

    Your desk is looking very organised this week Karen.
    All email you my details for the swap and if you would also like an ATC from me Email me here with your details I’ll get one in the post to you.
    Enjoy your Wednesday snooping on this very special Day
    Happy Crafting!

      I am prepping for a party so lots to do, I don't watch TV much so that helps. Going to work is annoying though, I don't have time for that!

    The trolley was a great find! I'm wondering how my cutter got clear over to your desk though, LOL. I love tins, so eyed your lunch box right off. Hope you enjoyed WOYWW. #47
