WOYWW #433


Hello WOYWW Deskers!  It’s Wednesday, which means its “What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday”, a blog hop hosted by the lovely Julia at The Stamping Ground

Another short, but not nearly as shocking as last week’s post. My main desk, side desk, floor and storage sideboard are still organized.  Yes, that means I haven’t been over to that side of the room. LOL!  Instead I took my short stints at the journaling desk, where you see this WIP for the Wanderlust course.  It is to be an exercise in “Mindful Art Journal Painting”  I think that means the doodling part, with gel pens.  I don’t like doodling.  And I suck at it; just sayin’. 

The container to the left is my “good” acrylic paints, Distress, Liquitex soft body and inks, and a few of the larger tubes of Dina Wakely’s Heavy Body ones.  The white envelope is the September Stencil Club stencils from Stencil Girl; can’t wait to play with them!  Some of the new flavors of Dylusions spray inks, that don’t fit in the current container, and some of the other stencils I’ve just finished with on the spread I worked on from last week. Oh, and the fan is back, since we’re back in the high & humid 80’s in Upstate NY.  Yuck!  Oh, and the bar across the front is my new Ott Light!  I figured I spend enough time at that desk now that I deserved a real light.  Thank you Joann's for having a sale at the time of my revelation! 


Speaking of last week, here is that finished page, also a Wanderlust prompt. 


So that’s me; now go back to the Stamping Ground to portal off to other creative desks.  Stay Crafty my friends.

Hello WOYWW Deskers!  It’s Wednesday, which means its “What’s on Your Workdesk Wednesday”, a blog hop hosted by the lovely Julia at The Stamping Ground

A rather short post today, as its Tuesday, but I’ll be traveling for work for the next few days, so I want this drafted up.  But just because its short, doesn’t mean its been an uneventful 2 weeks.  Should I first tease with what I ended my Sunday working on?  This is the WIP for the September Wanderlust Journal page, waiting to dry so I can finish it, which fingers crossed will be next week.  It is a combination of Dylusion’s sprays and Dina Wakely paints, with Stencil Girl stencils.  The area of interest is the fact that you can see desk top…did you? And the clear futon cushion? 


Now, for those who know and love me: Get ready. This is going to be tough to see…




 
That is three days of nothing but clearing, tossing, organizing.  After the craft show craziness, it was too much for even me to handle; I couldn’t even walk to the chair!  Now, I’m still not completely done; I have two corners of the room that still need attention: but am completely motivated to finish it.  For Christmas Card Season is upon us, and heaven knows I’ll need all the space I’ve got! LOL!

So that’s me; now go back to the Stamping Ground to portal off to other creative desks.  Stay Crafty my friends.
