WOYWW 234

Good morning folks
Yes, it's time for our weekly get together..........Whats on your Workdesk Wednesday........
 Full blown chaos here as per usual! But there is an element of control here, honest. I am just working in layers.......
 I couldn't resist this die last time I was at The Craft Barn, just need to find time to open it. The tin holds some of my Distress Paints.
The main thing on my desk this week is this. It's the box I keep my art journal supplies in so I thought it was high time it got a bit of titivating! Lots of DecoArt paints and pastes. Still quite a way to go but it is taking shape.
These cogs and Kiki are also going on to the box. I'll share it all when it is finished don't worry.
Propped up at the back is the journal page background created with the mask used on the box. It made more sense to me to clean it in the journal. It makes a pretty cool beginning for a page...
Lastly, I may have got a tad carried away; I now need to find place for all this yummy lace! Isn't it great? I have plans for it but I'll be honest and say I am not sure where I am going to hide it in my studio in the meantime!
Anyway. There you have my place this morning and I hope you have enjoyed the visit. For more, do pop on over to Julia HERE for all the details.
I'll be back later today with an announcement too so watch this space........

Hi Neil!
Always a pleasure to stop over to your desk and see what is happening! your nesting style of creating speaks to me!! Love the colors, patterns and textures. My style is more simplistic and my work area reflects it. This is one reason why I enjoy your blog so much, everything seems so complicated and layered and work intensive, very inspiring to me. Kind of interesting how we evolve into this form of artistry! Have a great week! Ginny #19
