I trust that you are all well this morning. Time for the weekly round up of workdesks as ever, hosted by Julia at Stamping Ground.
Well, after spending the better half of 5 hours tidying everything up, sorting out and unpacking from the weekend my little creative world is all welcoming and inviting ! So as a treat I've laid out some things ready for me to play with once you've had your peek.......
So here is the opening shot. Tidier than the last few visits for a change.
So there you have my place today. Now I'm going to get it all messy again.....
Anyone going to Ally Pally this weekend? I'm going on Saturday so will I see you too?

Oh I am loving tidy this week, you and Julia! Great to see you again last Saturday and sorry to see your wrist still in a brace, how is it coming along btw? Super whimsical journal page and yes a box for my new distress paints wold be a good idea. Thanks BJ#20
I'll be on Sue's Rubbernecker stand on Saturday and it would be great to say "hi". I love the wall storage for the card and paper. How tidy are you!!! Happy WOYWW. Pam#23
Enjoy Ally Pally, I went 12 years ago, before scrapping and stamping were big! Beautiful old place though. Love the bird and horse stamps are stunning.#23
It seems everyone has got the spring cleaning bug this week, me included but still working at it. Lovely journal pages. love Francesca #29
Your birds in the journal look fab!! Hope you get a lovely play on your desk soon!
I will be at ALly Pally on Saturday too, so will try and look for you among the crowds!!
Figures! LOL! The one week I'm really a mess, everyone else is all tidy and perfect looking!!!!
Job well done and I look forward to seeing you use all your new things. I think I like you better "messy", because you have the coolest stuff and know how to use it! :D
Happy Crafting!

A good tidy up is good for crativity I find! Have fun at Ally Pally, too far for me, but I'm sure you'll have fun. Lisa Sparkle #43
you have been a busy bunny! i just love everything on your desk - can i come n play??
happy WOYWW and have a great week :)
no. 4
there's always so much going on in your studio, Neil! Steampunk goggles, wow!
I've never said to a guy "Nice Rack" before (oh wait, yes I have but that's another story lol) I'm always in amazement at anyone who can tidy up their craft space. There's good reason I never photograph the area I work in & join in on Wednesdays lol. Love your journal page! I'll grill you about the paints when I see you too. Are they different to use than acrylic paints? Enjoy your week. Pxx
I love your journal pages and wow what a tidy desk! I will be coming all the way from Slovenia to Ally Pally so I hope we will meet! I will have to expand my distress paints collection - I only have 4 at the moment!
Hugs,
Cardarian
No spring cleaning bug here ... I'd like a bit of spring first LOL. Your journal page is just gorgeous! Might see you Saturday. Happy Wednseday, :o)

First, thanks for putting your number when you visited me, so few have done that today and it makes it take twice as long to get around. Grumble over.
Love the things you are showing us, want the goggles myself, love the journal page, envious of the paper storage, not bothered about the paints as I am busy collecting Fresco at the moment and would be interested to know what you think of La Blanche. Somehow I don't get on with them.
Hugs, Neet 16 xx
Your journal pages look fantastic Neil, I'm loving your birds on top of the flowers.
Happy Wednesday #83

Awesome neat and tidy workspace. I seem to get the opposite effect with photographing my art journal cause everything looks overly bright...but then it might be... Love the horses too and the steampunk goggles! Thanks for sharing and have a great week! Vickie #58
Great journal! I am trying to visit everyone! jenx 129
I'm sure it felt good to get your workstation tidy and looking good but it's even better to get it messy again. Hope you enjoyed it. #21

I'm going on Saturday Neil. It's always good to have a clear out. The card stock looks great, no more falling over of the card. I'm loving your journal page, its brilliant. Michelle x
Great space and I love how you have organised your paper stash. Can't wait to see what you do to those goggles.
sandra @27
I love your fantasy art journal spread, Neil, and those Steampunk goggles are a magnificent. I can't wait to see what you do with those cherubs. Blessings!
Hi Neil, love your card stock organiser. How that work then?? Is it home made? Hints gratefully received
G'day Neil
I've resigned myself to the fact that I shall ever be running late to get to others blogs due to my work but here I am. OMG you have some way cool things or your desk but as a lover of steam punk the goggles are amazing. The horse stamps are drop dead gorgeous....lucky you. My hubby is a reptile expert so the gecko caught my eye too LOL
hugs
Annette In Oz
Your studio is looking so organized tonight! Love the card holder thingy...safe and protected from getting crumpled or bent.
Your pages are fabulous...the colours look great from here!
