 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. Now, this desk is actually from a couple days ago, i haven't done anything this week as i have a stinking cold so am just sat here sneezing, coughing and blowing my snotty nose! However, inspired by several fellow WOYWWers sorting their stash out I made a start on mine! 

Workdesk with crafting

I decided to tackle just one drawer as thats achievable for me. 



I managed to get a bag full of goodies, all sorted and labelled and took it up to our local food bank and community hub. They do a free lunch and craft session each week so were chuffed for some more stash.

So, what's on your workdesk?

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. Well i have no crafting on my desk but last night i decided to clear out a couple of old books and some old inks and paints (i will be honest some of them were totally dried out!!) to make space for these beauties.


I have been doing Kolbie Blume's free online watercolour course and have been so impressed hubby bought me all three of her books for my birthday last week. To make sure i use them i was determined to keep them in my craft room as i would be more likely to notice them and have a go, hence the sorting out last night. 

I just need to put some time aside to finish the course and play.

So, what's on your workdesk?

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday and Valentines day too!  I actually did some crafting!!! Go me! 


Not difficult, just some backing paper and colouring some wooden flowers with my ink pads. But its still crafting so happy with that.

My Man Bites Dog cards this week are 'tourist tells on nurse again' mmm, moving on! 

So, what's on your workdesk this Wednesday?

 Morning and What's on your workdesk Wednesday? Well, on mine not much! Not had a chance to do any crafting. For the first time in several years i haven't made ANY Christmas cards (i usually try to make 20 in January to take the pressure off next Nov/Dec). I will try to make some in February before i pack away the christmas papers and stamps and cards i upcycle. 


At the  back is rhe Dr Who moulds i found when having a small clear out. In the past i made some clay and resin items like a tardis so need to have a think and make some more as they are really unusual. 


On the right of my desk is my small black sketch book, as i did manage to meet up with bristol urban sketchers at the weekend at the M Shed museum. Lovely group and there is some amazing artists in there. 

Forgot to do my 'man bites dog' cards and didnt make all my blog returns last week so apologies. Will try to make more time in February to actually do SOME crafting and also catch up on my painting course. 

So, what's on your workdesk, do share via the lovely Julia's blog.

Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. On my desk is my next Kolbie Blume watercolour class, sunset over water. Am a few behind (think there are 10 in the free class online) and missed one (as it used masking fluid and i dont have any) but really enjoyed the sunset.

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. On my desk this week (well last night) were my bullet journal and 365 journal being updated for January and copying across stuff like to do lists, birthday's and appointments. Bit boring. 


I haven't started my upcycling of the christmas cards YET (every year i try and have 20 made by the end of January to take the stress off December!) BUT i finally finished my Inktober!! 


These were the final 3 i hadn't got round to doing! No excuse, just didn't, but i have now, small wins are still wins! 

Also managed to do a few more of my watercolour course, am really loving doing these, but i need to schedule time around work so i can do them. 



I haven't tried doing landscape watercolours before and am really enjoying it

As to the 'man bites dog' cards this week....just odd!! 

So, what's on your workdesk?

Happy new year! The first what's on your workdesk Wednesday of 2024.  On my desk is a painting! I have signed up for an online painting course, watercolour landscapes in the past week and this is my first one. 


Its a night sky looking through the trees. I must admit, I quite enjoyed it. The way she explained the techniques just seemed to make sense to me. There are 10 paintings we are talked through so it will be interesting to see how i get on. 

Forgot my 'man bites dog' cards this week, will dig them out ready for next week.

So, what's on your workdesk?

 Happy What's on your workdesk Wednesday. A quick apology as didn't make it round all the desks last week as time fled by so quickly! So, what's on my desk.... the question is probably whats NOT on my desk!! Not on my desk are my pens, my guillotine and a load of papers! I ran out of room!! I also ran out of tape in my tape runner so need to go to town and find a stash! Luckily had some larger tape i could use becuase regardless of the fact i make a ton of Christmas cards every January i have run out so need to make another 15 or so and time is running out! 


I made a few last night and will make a few today (as i push most of it out the way or into a temp box!!)  Mind you, i quite enjoyed having to make some as i have gotten out of the habit of card making recently so happy with that. 

Still not finished inktober, will do them once i finish the cards 

So, what's on your workdesk?

 Happy hump day! On my desk this week is more mending! Well, sort of. My milk frother broke so before buying a new one i thought i would have a go at fixing it.


Took it all apart, cleaned it etc but sadly couldnt get it working so its gone in the recycling (luckily our council collects small electrics for recycling) and i will buy another. Also on my desk at the back is my inktober tags, i think i only have 4 to do so i really need to just do them! 

Hope your all ok and whether its those a bit higher up with the heavy snow and power outages of down here with the awful flooding-stay safe and do share What's on Your workdesk Wednesday.
