WOYWW - a bit of a cheat?

Hi everyone, well, this post title refers to me, or maybe more to the point to this photo!
Yes, I know you've seen it before and only a couple of days ago too, but there IS a reason for posting it again, honest!

You see, for ages now I've been wanting to join in with WOYWW (what's on your workdesk Wednesday) but what with one thing and another I've never managed it.
Well, last week Julia and the rest of the gang celebrated a WHOLE YEAR of fun and I really wanted to start off the 'new' year by being a part of it all, so yesterday I reminded myself NOT to clear up all my mess when I finished what I was doing, but instead to take a photo ready for today.
Obviously, I promptly then forgot all about it again and cleared up my mess, which means my workdesk looks exactly the same as this again at the moment.
In view of this saga I hope I may be forgiven and allowed to join in and I promise I'll try really hard not to clean up next week!

For those of you who think I've now lost the plot completely and have no idea what I'm talking about, take a trip over to the beloved leader Julia's blog and look at all the other WOYWW gang members workdesks......but BE WARNED it's very addictive!!!

Tee-hee-hee - mine's never like that when I've just cleaned it up and cleaned it out!!! I bet your's is less of a mess when you've finished than mine is before I start.
Hop on a plane and come sort me out sweetie.
hugs Heather xx

I'm glad I'm sitting down!You have a fabulous carfty space...and you still tidy up after every make??? If I did that, I'd never make anything, I'd be lost somewhere deep in the undergrowth of my craft room! Have a crafty day and welcome to WOYWW! More mess next time!! (Then I would feel better!)

Unknown said...

Hi Chrissie - thanks for your visit to my workdesk - which is a fair bit messier than yours... i admire your stamina to clear up so thoroughly after you've been creating - that it actually looks like no one has ever been in the room... it must do a lot to be able to start crafting with a clear slate... unfortunatly my mind and desk is far to buy and by the time i've finished a card, I'm skickered!!! (I make it hard work at the moment)!!!

Hope to see your desk mid production next week- why not take the pic during productivity - some take them the day or night before... some the morning of Wed... we really don't mind - as long as you show us.

TTFN

Carmen said...

Well that'll teach you for being so tidy wont it? :P Can you tell how immensley jealous I am?

Yes you were not going mad it WAS an elephant on my desk. I say was because I was tring to Alice up Elmer and half way through yesterday I put a box on him and now he is stuck to that box forever. Grrr! That'll teach ME for NOT being tidy wont it!

I love your workspace, so neat and tidy, fantastic :)

Bleubeard and Elizabeth said...

Welcome to WOYWW. Yep, I'm really, really slow this week, but I'm trying! Hope to see you back this coming week, too.

Are you this neat every day? Do you clean up after each session every time? If you answered YES, I do, too,. Can't help it. Just can't art in clutter. Can't do anything in clutter, for that matter.

I love your new craft space. I think white always looks so clean and fresh. So glad you joined us. I'm a neat freak, and could use some support from this side of the aisle. Again, welcome!!
