WOYWW 483

Hi everyone! I'm not the best at keeping up but I am here with my desk and I'll try and do better this time!
When I was here last at the beginning of August I was about to start a tidy up!
I am of course joining deskers around the World hosted by Julia at The Stamping Ground
I have done that now, at one point I even had an empty desk!
I collected up a whole bag of scraps.
 At one point it looked like this!
Now, I am covering something up with another journal, but still have quite a bit of space!
I do try to put things away when I have finished a crafty session, by a bit of re-arranging it is slightly easier now!

So that's it - apart from saying - to some of you at least - 'see you at the crop!' We are driving over for the day - interrupting our packing (but we do have piles of 'stuff' all around!)
Think I'll just do some collages as it will be easy to pack into a small bag!

Thanks for looking, Chris

Hi Chris, that's fab, look forward to seeing you again. Tidying and re-organising never seems to end, does it? I'm impressed you have just one bag of scraps, I admit. See you Saturday, Hugs, Shaz #9 X

WOW, that was a big mess. I want to see the whole view of the "after" shot, not just that tiny bit (GRIN). Enjoy going to the crop. I knew you and T wouldn't miss it if you weren't traveling in the other direction. Happy WOYWW from # 5

Afternoon Chris. Good to see you today - and then on Saturday, too. That was some clear-up you have achieved!
Take care. God bless.

Tidying and re-organising always takes ages and never seems to last does it. Have fun at the crop. Thanks for sharing. Have a good week. Caro x (#27)

The before shot looks more like my desk. LOL But a clean desk is always a blessing. Have a great time at the crop. Dorlene #31

I must have missed you in August, Chris! LOVE your messy desk in the before shot - that is seriously MESSY! There's always a point where messiness starts to annoy me (usually when I can't find stuff) - that's when I know I have to put some things away - only to get it messy again during my next project. Nice to see you around! Hope you have fun this week! zsuzsa #21

Hi Chris, tidy desk and not so tidy desk, all in one post! I'm with you on the trying to tidy after a crafty session. Mainly because I would never find anything if I didn't! Looking forward to meeting you on Saturday. Have a lovely week Heather x #12

I've been cleaning up my happy space BUT my desk is not yet done. I don't know how I will function when I get it all cleaned up though as I have gotten used to the mess. Your space is looking good. Hugs-Erika

Neet said...

I had no idea you were going to the crop - so excited to see you there.
Love your desk when it was full of stuff - nothing excites me more than a desk that is crowded.
See you Saturday.
Hugs, Neet xx

Hi Chris, you're better than me I am terrible at putting stuff away before starting something new. Now need a good sort out. I'm a bit late this week getting round due to family stuff. Happy belated woyww, Angela x17x

Sarah Brennan said...

Yay Chris, it will be nice to see you again at the crop (I think Port Sunny last year was our previous meeting). That desk is certainly looking clearer than it was lol. Thanks for the visit. Sarah #4

Hi Chris, good to see you at WOYWW and believe me even those messy areas are a lot tidier than anything i'm surrounded by at the moment.
Enjoy the crop and cake & look forward to hearing all about it.
Hugs Tracey xx

Words and Pictures said...

Mine looks mostly like the chaotic picture at the moment - I never seem quite to catch up with it all in between work trips, so there are always piles of stuff trying to be unpacked before being packed again! Congratulations on your empty desk moment... and good to see you're already in full flow again with covering it back up!
