I missed WOYWW last week, cos I was rather busy (see yesterday's post!) and didn't visit anyone, so will try to do better this week :-)
This is my desk - in my lovely new craft room [happy sigh]
I have everything I need in one place (on the shelves behind me that you can see in yesterday's post!), electrical sockets for my heat gun/glue gun etc, and s-p-a-c-e!! Of course, Deb's law of crafting states that 'you will expand to fill all available space' lol!
The frustration in the title of my post comes from the pile of dies you can see on the kitchen roll on my chair. I bought some lovely new cogs dies at Farnborough, and this is my first opportunity to try them out. They were stuck to the inside of the packaging with something akin to super glue, and the residue was stuck all over the dies, causing them in turn to stick to my Cuttlebug C plate. I had to use my craft knife to pry them off! So they have been liberally bathed in Stick away, and rinsed in the sink, so that I can actually use the blasted things again! Grrr......rant over!
And this is Barney investigating my new crafting space.....just cos he can!
Sorry for the cat butt in shot - he's not the best trained moggy and tends to flash everyone, witness his shameless sunbathing in the unseasonably warm weather this week.......and yes, he is fast asleep lol!!
Looking forward to seeing some of the goodies created by you lovely WOYWW'ers, probably take me a few days, but I will visit as many as I can before next week.
Also, if anyone is planning a visit to the NEC on Friday 23/3, come and say hi, I will be demo'ing on the WOW embossing stand all afternoon from 1pm and would love to meet some WOYWW'ers.
Thanks for stopping by

couldnt resist and read your earlier post,fab craft room,hope you get your dies cleaned,happy crafting,x
ReplyDeleteLove the sunbathing moggie, he looks as if he is in heaven. As for the sticky stuff, I always think that those who put the sticky stuff on should be make to take it off. By the way, I ended up contacting Barbara Gray on her Facebook to ask where I was going wrong, and, bless her, she replied very quickly and told me that she was using Perfect Pearls, not the cheap mica powders I had tried. Enjoy your new room and have a good week. xx Maggie #8

ReplyDeleteYour new craft room looks fabulous! I did the crafting at the dining room table thing for awhile and it was so great moving into my craft room just so I didn't have to clear the table all the time. Enjoy!
