WOYWW#155

Hi folks
Welcome to my world this glorious sunny day. It's time to share our creative place with the world courtesy of Julia at Stamping Up so here's mine
 There's a bit of a clear space for a change! In this pic you can see all the bits and bobs of a bit of a session.

 But hiding on there is my little Ranger Uni Journal It's all finished now, written up and stuffed full of tags, calling cards etc.
 Just opened it to show you a bit of the inside!

Then there's this which I use a lot, these acrylic boxes fit perfectly in a beautiful wooden box and I have assorted vintage tape, fake rivets, nuts and bolts in there. I have another one full of old watch parts too.
So there you have it, my creative space today.
Hope you all have a lovely day.

I've noticed that little plastic boxes for 'mens things' bolts, nuts screws etc are so much cheeper that 'lady's crafting things, and a lot of 'mens things' come with a lovely little box, as no extra (so it seems) charge! Hence I do nick hubby's boxes!! Love your booklet, so thought provoking!! Lovely and sunny here today off out in the garden very soon! Have a crafty week! HAPPY WOYWW
