Good morning and welcome to the world of international desk hopping hosted by Julia HERE.
Time to make public your workplace for the voyeurs of the world.........
Mine is the proverbial tip today as I'm in full creative flow and working on a thousand techniques at once so here goes.
Well, I tried to warn you. There's pots and potions a plenty, inks paints and pastes galore. Other than that there's not much to see. The handsome chap at the back is from a book of art plates.
I've been using my Ranger technique tags.....
Turning ordinary kraft card into something wonderful with Ranger's ink refresher and perfect pearls.....
Lastly, a pile of wonderfully textural fibres from Jo that I haven'y packed away yet.....
So not too much happening. But all of the chaos on my desk is leading somewhere; I just don't want to share where at the moment as I'm not finished yet. But here's a couple of clues.........
Hope you all have a lovely and creative week!

Finally, joined us messy people, but I love it... Config box great stuff, love the new fibres as well. love Francesca #66
That seems to be a really creative place! EXCITING!!! I am so happy to see that other crafters and artist are the same chaotic like me...
no I know..it´s not chaos..this are all creative ideas there over and over! LOL!
Such a tease, Looking forward to seeing the finished piece. One very busy looking work desk, A frenzy of activity.
That's going to be a lovely quirky configuration box.. my bet! Where on earth has your tidied desk gone? It's amazing how long it takes to get straight and how quickly we can make a mess. That's a really good mess and I enjoyed my snoop! Some treasures there.

Now, here is a busy desk! Love your sneak peaks, can't wait for the big reveal. Thanks for dropping over. Helen, 9
Hi Neil, I do believe you have the busiest desk in craftdom today - at the mention of potions, inks, paints and pastes I thought I'd stumbled into an alchemists :) The sneaky peeks make me want to see more. Thanks for popping by my place - I've found some very practical, if unexciting, useful and utilitarian boxes in B&Q that will do nicely - now I just have to find the time to sort out all that paper. Hope you've had a great WOYWW. Elizabeth #112

Have just taken a little pile of fibre out of my knitting sewing up bag and was about to throw them away but thought better of it. Very creative desk - love it. Thanks for visiting me.
Tricia #74
Gorgeouso stuff on your desk as usual, Neil - love the tags and all the busy clutter - certainly nothing staged about yours, methinks! Thanks for your lovely comment and encouragement - I agree that a staged desk is better than an empty desk!
Happy WOYWW,

I love it when everything works and the flow is full and it just doesn't matter about putting stuff away,..you instinctively know where it is anyway!

Not a clue where your desk is leading - it is so busy. How on earth do you find what you are currently doing?
Looking forward to visiting again later.
Hugs and Thanks for visiting me, Neet 47 (one day I will be early instead of playing catch up)
Your desk always has creative stuff on it! It's not a tip, call it "creative chaos" if you will, but your work is always inspiring! Love that heart thingy but can't work out what it is going to be?
Happy WOYWW and thanks for visiting.
Hello Neal! I would love to visit you and look at all your stuff! Amazing! patsy
Looks as if you have been having great fun. Thanks for stopping by my blog.
Hardly the proverbial tip more like an aladdins cave. Enjoy your week.

Hello!
Wow - there are a lot of creative options on your work desk! Your flower you finished from the ink and pearl powder is very beautiful! Wishing you a great weekend!
Hugs,
Barbara Diane
Hah! You see, my utterly clear desk is just to balance out all the ones like yours! Except soon mine will look a lot like yours again, so who'll provide the balance then?
You DO have plenty going on, lots of delightful creative things!
Thank you for stopping by this woyww, Neil!

Wow! Do you have any room to actually DO anything on that desk? Or have you move onto another surface? I've been know to put up the folding table from time to time. It makes the hubby roll his eyes before he plods off to the man cave. Anyway, you have lots of lovely things out and about so I'm sure you are having a dandy time with it all. Enjoy!
I love nothing more than to see a desk display like this. Your work looks very interesting. I'm thinking of expanding into textile art next year, so i was rather excited to see your pile of fibres! Happy crafting to you:) x
Lots going on here this week. Thanks for visiting earlier - sorry I'm so late, but better late than never!
Bernice #123
Sooo much going on there! Looks like it may be time for a tidy...unless it gets like that every time you play and then why bother, huh? lol :) Thanks for stopping by my blog already and leaving a comment. Deeyll #76
I am a bit late commenting - had a busy week but I am a follower so I have seen your lovely makes of this week - really lovely Christmas decor! Thank you for sharing!
