woyww- sorting and hoarding

 The most wonderful collection of ATC's are on my desk this wednesday.  Starting from top L the beautiful felted/dumpfed ATC from Maxine.  Thank you :) Followed by Twiglet's gorgeous machine stitched flowers and Wipso's stunning landscape. Middle row, left is from Shaz and after the year she has gone through "Love Live Laugh" means so much.  Next is from Lisca and I am amazed at the intricate work she has completed for her first ATC. Bridget's sunny flower reminds me of beautiful Queensland. Bottom L Diana's amazing ATC, moi and Nikki C and her whimsical characters.  Love them all ... thank you.

 A pic of the other side of my craft room.  Desk all set up to sketch a field mouse which is June's tutorial.  Thought I had sorted all my goodies and pleased everything had fitted neatly into the ikea bookcase until I opened the wardrobe and found another couple of boxes!  Starting to think I am a hoarder.

Now that my craft room is rearranged I can look out onto the deck and a few trees.  Usually kitty sits on the railing screaming to be let in.  

Have a craft filled woyww.

woyww - white walls and atc

 Not a lot of craft happening on my desk this woyww.  But, I did get to move most of the furniture and craft stuff back into my room after it was painted.  Trying hard to get rid of rubbish but there are so many bits and pieces that I just can't throw away.  The bowing in the shelf at the back of the desk shows just how much rubbish I had!!

A close up of two wonderful ATC's  and cards that have already arrived from the swap.  Thank you so much Nikki C and Diana.  They are stunning ATC's and I am so pleased to have swapped with you.

Have a creative woyww week.

woyww - absolutely nothing

The only creativity happening in my little craft room is 

a coat or two of paint over the weekend.  

But I did get to finish the tulips.

Happy 7th anniversary dear woywws.

woyww - tulips and not much else

Last weeks atc frenzy has come to an end and I started painting tulips and then it all came to a stop.  What you see on my desk this wednesday is the first stages of the painting.  Highlights and lowlights.  Plastic bag over the top of paints to stop dust and fluff drifting onto the plate.   Dirty water and paper towel on the left just sitting waiting for me to come back.  Hopefully this weekend I can get into watching more of Anna Mason's tutorial and visit lots of desks.

Wish I had more to show :( 

woyww - atc frenzy

No painting this woyww.  With the completion of the rose I have been able to move on to making a few atc's for a swap that is coming up.  I can hardly wait. 

Send me an email if you would like to swap for woyww.

A rose is a rose is a rose

 A rose .... next flower will definitely have less petals.

woyww- pink rose at snail pace

Not a lot has changed from last week, still working on the rose and trying not to get bamboozled by all those petals and which one gets the highlight.  Finally moved on to the leaves last night.  Truly a snail would of eaten it faster then I paint.  The little desk lamp has been elevated onto the white shelf.  I kept having to move the rose photo to turn the lamp off.  Only took me several weeks to stop complaining and just move it.  

Happy woyww and I promise to have a peek at lots of desks over the next few days.
