What's On My Workdesk

Morning folks....yes it's Wednesday and time to play along at WOYWW  and after my little confession last week all the messy crafters out there will be pleased to know that Miss Neat Freak has turned over a new leaf...thrown caution to the wind and is now living life in the fast lane....it would appear that my alter ego Miss Little Bit Messy has taken up residence....


I know what you are thinking....this isn't too messy but I've had to crop most of the devastation out so that you don't see the parts of THE PROJECT I have already finished....yes the one that we can't talk about or share yet... but check out the stuff abandoned on the floor and after tripping over it several times already this morning I need to have a word with Miss Messy about her untidy habits....hasn't she heard about Health & Safety in the workplace....
but I have a sneaky feeling that she may soon be packing her suitcase and hi-tailing it out of here because the next job is enough to send anyone running for the hills.....threading up some of these itty bitty teeny weeny buttons....another of my freaky obsessions....I just can't stand to see naked buttons and where is my Champion Button Threader Friend Anne when I need her....
and they don't come much teeny weenier than this.....

I was hoping last week to get round to visiting all the other folks who share their workdesks with us but some small distractions got in the way in the shape of grandkids...car boot sale....deadlines...DT stuff...dog walking...cooking...eating and sleeping so please forgive me if I didn't visit you.....I will try and do better this week.
And it looks like my gorgeous bundle of golden deliciousness is having a bit of a "throwing his toys out of the pram" day....he's definitely not a happy bunny and is in a right huff after my suggestion yesterday that he could be bribed with biscuits to tell our little secret.....even a big cuddle didn't bring him round....but I bet my bottom dollar that a stroll in the woods....a run around with Miss Ruby and a yummy Bonio will get rid of that sulky face and life at the cubbyhole will be back to normal.  And the plan for today.....work work and more work.....roll on Friday...in the meantime I am looking forward to my nosey around all your crafty spaces
But before I dash off to get into crafty mode....I want to give a big Funky Hand hug to
our lovely new teamies over at Funky Hand
welcome on board The Funky Hand team girls

Hugs Kath xxx

  11. Welcome to the club Kath, a not so tidy cubbyhole is a treat to see lol. Still you are a lot tidier than me, my craft stuff is cluttering the sitting room and the kitchen.Must do better.
    Sulky dogs must be on the agenda today. Meg not happy as her TAXI has been impounded by the MOT station. Not good news but they are fairly quiet today and are working on it today and should have it back this afternoon. Hope Buddy returns to his normal bouncing bundle of golden deliciousness real soon. Take care. Hugs and tickles behind the ears, Denise & Meg

  22. Ah you made me smile..I have a dear chum who can't use an unthreaded button....you need some very fine marker pens to draw the thread on!! Am delighted to see your work space, but really, it's not what I call messy - it's work in progress!! Although tripping over your own stuff is maddening!

  23. Have fun threading all those buttons! Can't think of anything are rather not do LOL :) Buddy looks gorgeous today...not that he doesn't every day of course :)

  24. First, scratch scratch scratch to the backs of awesome buddy's ears. I love seeing his picture when I visit. Second, love your workspace, and there is No Way my eyeballs or patience would hold up threading those buttons. Third, isn't it funny how guilty we all feel when we don't visit enough WOYWWs? I was just blogging my apologies to everyone for that same thing!

  26. I am sure the Budster will come around! bless. I hope all is well. budster is adorable. I love your craft studio, one day when I have my own place hopefully I will be able to have a room just for crafting! heaven. I wanted to ask when are the new Penny Black stamps released. I used to get mine from the glitterpot = but since they have moved to the new site, they are not getting the new stuff at the release date but later! Where do you order your penny black stuff from online that would deliver in the UK? and is reliable?

  27. Great desk but especially loving the Budster!

  41. Looking forward to seeing what you've been up to Kath. I'm so missing being able to get some crafting done, roll on the weekend. I hate working full time, especially as sometimes I have nothing to do except read. I've even started crocheting cos it's easier to lift and lay at work in the Post Office. I can't do any crafting cos I can't rely on my hands being clean enough! At least I got one card made today when my friend came round. Didn't have any internet access so I just had to make it up lol!
