WOYWW #239

Happy New Year Everyone!! While I can't say 2013 was a bad year, I have to admit; I'm looking forward to 2014.  And being a Wednesday, it makes this first day even more special, as its What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday!! Julia at the Stamping Ground has all the deets there...

So, I have a caution....a warning....for the images that follow aren't pretty.  I'm also going to add my Husband is making me show these; for he made me take the pictures; something about showing my shame to the world to better myself.  I tried to explain that Christmas is a busy time; things get out of hand; and doing a right clean-up was a priority for the new year...so, those of a strong stomach...here they are:
This is from the door...My gift wrapping table, with paper, boxes, bows, etc., all within reach..really; why is he upset about this temporary situation???

OH, because of this view: Stamps, papers, inkpads, dies, paper packs, cutters; yeah, even I can't really say what is where at this moment...



But Fear Not!! Remember that part about doing a full clean-up?? Notice that big box in the top picture left?  That is my new bookshelf; courtesy a gift card and a huge Target sale (and free shipping!) That is my project over the weekend: move the 2 current bookshelves off camera, and place them on the wall where the TV is now, get that out,(as well as move those precarious boxes of ornaments) and then go from there...stay tuned!!

And again, I hope everyone has a very Healthy, Happy, Crafty and Prosperous New Year!!
(Odd how healthy has moved up in priority as I've gotten older!)

  3. You definitly win the prize for the messiest space this week, lol!! But I'm not far behind.......what I say is that it has to get worse before it gets better! I rather like sorting out, find it quite cathartic :-)
    Thanks for all the support and great comments this year! May 2014 be filled with fun, happiness and crafty mayhem!
    Hugs, LLJ 29 xx

  5. Happy New Year, Kim. Your husband should have seen my desk before Christmas then he might have cut you a bit of slack :) The mess is inevitable and nothing a day clearing can't sort out. I'm sure the new shelves are going to make a big difference to your crafty organisation :)) Have a great week and a wonderful 2014. Hugs, Elizabeth x #79

    PS: Healthy has become a priority on my New Year wish list for everyone too ... it must be an age thing :)
