It’s taken me ages to tidy up to get to this point, (A)I’ve almost lost the will to live and (B) it still looks messy! UGH, it’s such a soul-less task! On the brighter side, on my desk you can see a Level 2 Hostess set which I need to mount, a pack of Cherry Cobbler DSP ready to cut to the left of the picture. In the middle is an oval cardboard template I’ve just painstakingly cut out with a craft knife – the chipboard was very thick! – and you can see the distressing tools are out to file a smooth finish on the chipboard. On the right is a box of pins sitting on top of some cork mats ready to be run through the big shot, above that are some brooch fasteners, top right-ish, lollipop sticks (need to find a use for them), and a polystyrene ring in the middle waiting to be decorated. I am using these materials to plan a class in the future, need to find some inspiration as to what. Happy WOYWW – back to Julia’sto visit other desks.
Well it looks tidy to me!!!!! Fab desk. Happy Wednesday.

It all looks extremely neat and tidy from here… and I am curious… what is the big white donut shape? Annette #3
The big white donut is a polystyrene ring for making floral wreaths or whatever takes your fancy.
You are looking pretty tidy this week.

I'd have said that's the hardest way to plan a class -for me it has to be the idea first, but then I'm well known to be a bit lazy! Your desk looks great from here; of course, perhaps our definiton of untidy differs…alot!
Loving that circle/big spot paper – fab tones there. That desk wants to be played with…
Thanks for sharing today,

mmm Elaine, know so well what you mean, about what to do next?? I always look around for ideas in my ideas book when stuck… Happy WOYWW 101 and thanks for sharing. Shaz in Oz.x #21
Nice tidy desk but reading your post made me look deeper and there's a lot more there to see.
I've sent you an email with an idea for your polystyrene ring that I saw at CHA… hope you like it.

Your desk looks very tidy and and yet there is a lot going on there.
Happy WOYWW
I know, me too! (the will to live) after tidying my crafty space it's still looks the same, but as least I can see the carpet now! Great snoop! Happy WOYWW ((Lyn)) # 42
Your desk looks fine to me – lots going on so you are going to be busy.
Looking tidy ….nice job! I think now you need to get busy and mess it all back up with some wonderful creations. TFS
You're looking very tidy to me. Interesting to see what goes into putting a class together.

Sometimes it's difficult to find the inspiration for putting together a class. I hope you'll find it, and soon.
Oh I do love a desk thats not perfectly tidy. And yours look totaly fine to me.
Cannot wait to see what you do with that ring …. mind going myself now, lol
Sometimes tidying up can be a soulless task, but when you find things you've been looking for then it can be a lifesaver! Wish I was more committed to putting things back where they belong!!! Patsy from HeARTworks
I hope you find some inspiration for your class soon Elaine. I’m afraid I can’t offer any help either because nothing is springing to mine either.
Love the new set of stamps, very useful indeed!
Happy WOYWW!

I love a tidy desk and I can see your little vacuum attachment peeking in the background. That must be the secret to keeping it all so tidy!!
Love the papers you are going to be working with – thanks for sharing
Oooh, I understand the Ugh factor, but a crafter's gotta do what a crafter's gotta do, eh? Thanks for stopping by!
