WOYWW 67 and Elusive Images Halloween Candy

Well, where did the week go?  Oh yes I remember, I was busy schemeing with the the rest of the Elusive Images Design Team about a Hallowe'en themed Blog Hop with hidden Blog Candy for you to find.  If you want to know more, the start point is here at the Elusive Images Design Team Blog.  You have until the 17th of September to hunt down that candy. 

But now it's Wednesday again so it's time for WOYWW.  Last week I made it round everyone!  Geeze that was a lot of blogs, but I enjoyed every visit and found lots lof lovely inspiration along the way, not to mention some comfort in seeing that, after all, I may not the messiest crafter in the known universe.
 

Anyhow here's my desk this week, not a lot going on at the moment so I thought you might like to see what's over my workspace.... and here's a pic of some drawers that sit on the shelf directly over my desk - they hold Sakura pens, water colour pencils, Stampin' Up Markers, Whispers markers, some stencils, stencil brushes, gems, bits of ribbon and other various itty bitty crafty things.  On top are tins with more pencils, Primacolors, Derwent Metallic Pencils and Lyra Aquacolors - and before you say it, yes I have a bit of a pen and pencil thing going on ..... and worse.......I haven't even shown you my collection of twinkling H2O's yet..... maybe I will share that next week. 
In front of those drawers is the edge of the shelf - it's about 3 inches wider than the little drawer sets and a very handy spot to stuff things outta the way, I can reach up there while remaining seated at my workdesk!  Errr don't ask me what up there, most of it is small bits of card that really ought to be in a bits box or binned. I keep promising myself I will sort that all out Oneday.  The problem is Woden gave his name to  Wednesday, Thor's name for Thursday,  and Freya gave hers to Friday etc., but here's the problem..... for some reason nobody ever named a day of the week after the great god "One"!!! And ain't that most original and best excuse you EVER did hear for not tidying your craft space!!! [Big Grin]
Now if you're wondering what on earth all this is about then I recommend you visit Julia's Blog Stamping Ground as she is the orchestrator of this regular Wednesday Snoopathon.

Oops I nearly forgot, for those of you who visited last week and saw the part-coloured image on my desk.....here's how it turned out.

  2. Oooh love the little drawers Phree. I have a real 'thing' (some might call it obsession) with little drawers and boxes, Haha! They always seem to hold such promise don't they?

    Thanks for the snoop and luurrve the card. I know where it was bound and I bet it was truly appreciated!

    I've managed another Hallow's card last night which I'm going to post in a mo. Blogger seems to be behaving itself so far this morning so I have my fingers crossed for a lot less frustration than last week.

  5. Hi Phree, your shelves look good, and I know about that little bit of shelf left over in which to put those bits and pieces we crafters don't like to throw away. It was from just such a space that my bits and pieces box fell on me last week! Your card turned out really well, looks very impressive. Have a good WOYWW day! ikki x
