So here is my space to the left of where I sit - a box of Christmas papers that are always nearby, one of my many boxes of ribbons, a box of ready stamped images, brads, sentiments, a stamp that should have been put way, a pack of skeleton leaves (not sure why they are there or why I bought them recently as I still have some tucked away from years ago). The Creative expressions masks were bought with a Joanna Sheen voucher that I won a while ago for a Rainbow Lady challenge.
To the right of where I sit there is a box of an Anna Griffin engraved botanica kit that I bought from QVC last week - just I gave in to the temptation again, but my excuse is that I make a load of cards to sell for charity and sometimes I need to make some quick ones. On top of the box are magazine papers and stamps waiting for more inspiration. You can also see some lovely Prima roses that I received yesterday as a prize from the Let's Craft & Create challenge and also a set of Aster flower topper shapeabilities that I bought with another Joanna Sheen voucher, this time won for a challenge on The crafty pad. Lurking in front are some images ready to be used.
I thought I'd also show the pull out drawers that are inside the cupboard to my right - very handy. They were built in originally to house a printer and my craft robo, but my robo was replaced with the cricut which now sits on top and my printer is now wireless, so is over the other side of the room out of the way.
And this is the keyboard shelf that pulls out where I sit - I don't use it for a keyboard, so it's so handy to house all those bits and pieces that then get pushed out of the way.
Sorry, this turned into a longer post than I intended!
I'm so grateful for all the visitors I had last week. Thank you to everyone who visits and leaves comments - I do so appreciate it.
I always like looking at your workspace Hazel. It is so lovely and organised, how I like mine really. You make so many cards each week, I guess you need to know where everything is. I especially like your pots of pens. I have finally bought the last lot of Copic ciao markers so I have the whole set now and I have sorted them all into number order. It gives me as much pleasure to see them like that as it does to use them! Kate x 170
ReplyDeleteI am another one who likes organisation on my desk like Kate. So thinks week my desk looks like it belongs to somebody else.

That's a busy desk Hazel and so much to see. I have a thing about masks at present so I would love the ones on your desk this week.

I like the keyboard shelf and it would always make you desk look tidy!! Sandra #17
ReplyDeleteWow what a lot of stuff Hazel.
ReplyDeleteI've got such a long way to go with my collecting. I'm taking it slowly though so I don't frighten my mojo away. He went AWOL for 12 years so I'm a little nervous in case he decides to do it again!
Have fun...enjoy WOYWW ;D

What a well organised space! I have some of those masks that you have there but guess what, I still haven't used them and I've had them since September Ally Pally! #36
ReplyDeleteGreat space for playing and love using the keyboard and shoving out of the way. Thank for the visit. #58
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all your wins - can't go wrong with vouchers as you can choose what you like. I saw the Anna Griffin TSV on QVC but resisted for once! I do love all her stuff, especially her stamps.
ReplyDeleteYou're making fab use of that desk, love the keyboard tray pull out idea. I had to laugh though as when I first read your post I thought you said you kept your 'craft robe' in the cupboard and had visions of you sitting at your desk in a fancy crafting robe - lol. I really must slow down when reading and typing.
Thanks for already coming to see my desk this week x

ReplyDeleteYou have a great crafty space there! And lots of yummy stash and tools! I especially love the boxes of flowers in the cupboard shelves!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me earlier!
xoxo Karen
What a craftily organized workspace! Yeah for slide outs, huh? :)
ReplyDeleteI had to install one under my paper crafting surface last year and I love it...it's not a far from the top as yours is so I can only put thinner stuff on it but that means it works well for the little bits of paper and stuff that get lost else where, oh and the clear stamps fit there, too. Anyways, thanks for stopping by and checking out my sewing cabinet. I'm sure I'll put up pics of my craft room this week and I look forward to see what's on your desk again! ~Deeyll
I am in love with your pull-outs!!! And your stencils! I LOVE stencils!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove all the photos you shared! My area's such a mess, I can't even get to all the cubby holes! lol
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by a couple of weeks ago. I'm catching up on my WOYWW comments...
Have a wonderful weekend!
