WOYWW # 141

Good morning peeps
I've not been around for a couple of days so I apologise, life has just been a bit manic but I'll try to get better, I have a list of things I want to do step by steps for but ....... well, let's leave it at that shall we as you've come to see my desk!
 Surprised? Yes, I'm working indoors on the dining room table; not really because it's too cold outside but because I've been too lazy to unpack my bags from Sunday's class so I kinda just started working from them.
 I picked this dress form up from a charity shop yesterday for the princely sum of £1.00 so am looking forward to transforming it.
 This os one of the pages from Sunday's class which I am going to get finished, hopefully  today.
Then I have an idea that I want to try with this embossing folder, isn't it lovely? it involves the little tree die so we'll see how it goes........
So there's my temporary workdesk; pop over to Julia's place at Stamping ground to see more and I'll try to pop in for a peek later.
Have a blessed and hopefully creative day!

    looks like a great place to work! I picked up a dress form the other day also but it doesn't have a base to stand on. Any ideas what I could use? Hope you have a great week and thanks for sharing. Don't forget my blog candy is still up for grabs so drop by and leave a comment and make sure you are a follower. Vickie #64

    Good find with the dress form and any surface that is free of clutter is definitely a work desk.

    I thought your desk was loaded with goodies, but now I see you have a portable lot of goodies.
    Great bargain with the little dress dummy.
    Have a great week.

    Thought I was in the wrong place for a moment there Neil. What a lucky find the mini dress from was - how come I never find anything like that.

    Thanks for popping your head round the door, Neil! Once I get some more silver mirror card I can finish the butterflies project. I'm still getting to grips with Sheba, my cutting machine - steep learning curve but I'm getting there! Your work table looks very organised - as always lovely colours and plenty of interest. Gorgeous little dress form, a great find. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.

    You remember last time I was on WOYWW and I asked you what projects you'd used the face moulds for? I'd love to see your work using these - could you please give me some links? I've now made a few with air dry clay but haven't used them yet - I have a mixed media canvas in mind for the large one, with lots of texture.

    Happy WOYWW, Shoshi #35

    Right away I said to myself that wasn't your desk. I've done the temporary desk thing myself when it is more convenient to be elsewhere. Sometimes a change of location can be fun. Great find for a $1! That will be fun to play with for sure. Great embossing folder and journal page. Lots of great things to see on your post today.

    For a minute there I thought you had done a revamp in the shed. Very up market I thought!!!!!!!! Dress form was a good buy. No doubt it won't look like that for long though. Mrs A #165.

    What make is the embossing folder?
