I can't believe I'm doing this! WOYWW

To say I'm somewhat embarrassed by the clutter in which I work is understatement personified.
I actually removed several layers of detritus from my desk the other day but looking at this I don't suppose anyone could have imagined this possible.
There are certain things that are always where they are now... the Cuttlebug, the heat gun, the Copics, the glass mat, the containers for my pen and brushes etc., but there is usually evidence of past projects scattered around.
The work in progress on the desk at the moment is an attempt at 3D flowers for the Just Us Girls Challenge!
There, I've done it. Maybe it will spur me on to removing more layers on a regular basis!
PS Yvonne asked what the yellow thing is... It's a half-grapefruit, lemon or orange container from Lakeland, I put a wet wipe in there to stop it drying out if I've only used it once to clean my stamps. My mum brought me up to be thrifty!

  4. Looks just like my craft table, except I have my laptop in the middle of it. Sometime I find myself using a punch as a computer mouse! lol

  9. yoo-hoo, yes I love my slice, I won it actually in the first blog comp I entered at Pink Petticoat!

    It's much underused as I do prefer the ease of the cuttlebug, but it does come with some beautiful design cards - and it's small

  10. Chrissie your desk is positively tidy compared to mine! I'm down to a couple of square inches of usable space so that means it's time to tidy up!

  13. Well done on flashing your stash Chrissie, you'll not worry about what it looks like next week. It's strangely addictive being nosey at everyone's stuff.
    It actually looks quite tidy for a craft space and I love your copic chart xx

  14. Love your space - it's like a little nest to snuggle into and craft away. Am envious of your copics, I've only just started collecting and have a pitiful 8!! :D

  15. I think this is tidy - you should see my room, the floor is my biggest shelf! I did have a sort out the other day because I was fed up with losing things, and my dear hubby came in and said "oh gosh, we have the same carpet in here as the other rooms - I'd forgot". Bless him!

  17. Woo hoo! Sorry to be late to the revelation, but I'm here now! Woot! I think it's clear to me that in it's current state, your desk has been tidied for photogrpahy purposes. This is because I just cannot be the only one to work in the mess that I end up posting for WOYWW!
    I have a tole painted wooden angel in my workspace too - I will share once I've got over the shock of being so far behind!
