woyww time of week YAY!!!! there has not been much happening on this desk since last thursday......it has been all go go go here since then with the easter weekend and I squeezed in my first ikea visit too yesterday.....now I am hooked on storage! I started work on a magnolia stamp and as you can see I got no further than her skin....I am determined to get her on a card today before I head out to madhatters craft club tonight! hugs xx
That's a challenge now you've set :) ... I'll be watching to see the finished card now.
ReplyDeleteHi Mandy
ReplyDeleteYour desk looks scrummy. :) I love your Tilda image... can't wait to see your finished card. Have fun tonight & don't worry about getting to the Post Office... I know exactly what it's like during the school hollies. Have fun. Gez..xx
Oooh I've just spotted WALLE on your desk. Enjoy your little jars. Can't wait to see them filled next week.
Hi Mandy thanks for visiting my desk, I see you have some ikea jars like me waiting to be filled with some nice stash?
ReplyDeleteThe buttefly stamp on my desk is from a stamping up set you get 3 large butterflys one small one, a flower and 5 sentiments.
There is a project on my blog a few posts down that shows most of the stamps in use.
Just spotted you litle bambi as I'm typing how cute is that.
Hugs Pam x
So you like Ikea?? I am a big fan - actually quite a lot of the stuff in my craftroom is Ikea...nice Tilda will be back looking at the finished card...thanks for the snoop!

IKEA! Yeh fab place....wish my local one was not 3 hrs away!! LOL
ReplyDeletexoxo
I think us crafters all get as obsessed over Ikea storage as we do our stash!! Most of my room is ikea stuff including the desk and shelving!
ReplyDeleteYour desk is looking very productive. I haven't even attempted to put a stampotique image on that blog header you did for me yet. I#ll get there soon xxx
I love seeing what other people have on thier craft space!! thanks so much for sharing!! hugs Juls
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty desk, I love the pink drawer set at the back and have those jars from Ikea... great for buttons and large beads etc!!
ReplyDeleteI see you fell for the litlle roundy jars then. Hmm, now you have to radically increase your button collection! Madhatters craft group - really, do you wear silly hats to craft - I do hope so!
ReplyDeleteYep another Ikea fan here, my desk and shelf unit is from there, I don;t have any of their storage as I work for a large Japanese company and I get given beautiful (empty) boxes from business trips the Engineers take out there, I have some beauties and have been thinking about doing a blog post just on them!! Surprised no-one else has spied the chocs on your desk today!!!
ReplyDeletemagnolia looking good from here - would love to see more of your IKEA storage - i;m mad on it too... i have those little jars you have.... need to see more!!!!
ReplyDeletePaula x x x
She's looking very pretty willpop back to see her finished and mounted on her card :) i'm liking your table tote! I think it's the same as mine "Gisselle Graham"?
ReplyDeleteOh, I love Ikea storage!! I haven't been to Ikea for ages, I don't have a car and my local one isn't easy to get to by bus/train - and how would I get all those things home!!!
ReplyDeleteum - where do those truffle eggs fit in ?? Like what you have done with the image so far. Meant to say last week you have some great music on your blog.
ReplyDeleteLinbyx

ReplyDeleteYes I told you I had to get TGF forest friends stamp set its all your fault ...I should really have blamed you in my post !! lol
Hugs Susie xx

ReplyDelete(Lyn)
Tilda's looking good! Nice bit of reading material you've got there too Mandy! x
ReplyDeleteI neeeed to see more of your pinboard AND I notice you have Mr Holtz's new book... worth the buy? Am thinking about seeing if anyone has it at Ally Pally at the weekend ;)
ReplyDeleteI love those little Ikea jars, I have 20 in my craft room full or ribbons and buttons, and aanother 15 in the kitchen for spices lol Keep an eye open in the pound shops, as they sometimes get the exact same little jars in.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the Tilda will look fab when you finish with her... but tell me about those fabby looking truffle eggs!!!
ReplyDeleteIkea definitely have storage sorted don't they!1
ReplyDeleteGreat colouring, I'd like to see her finished.
ReplyDeleteI must go and see if Ikea has any suitable storage for me!

Such a pretty desk ... I think I would just sit and stroke it and not actually ever get anything done :0)
ReplyDeleteinteresting desk ....look forward to seeing the completed image on a card ...spotted your truffle eggs ...its wednesday ...how come they are stil there.
ReplyDeletelove Tilda!
ReplyDeleteI love finding new ways to store things.
We have a new Ikea here in Adelaide (new?, well it's been open for a few years now, but I must confess, I have not been yet.)
I am scared I will never leave ;-)
Lovely desk and what fun stamps! Do you have any trouble storing your Distress Inks on their side? I have my stamps in a great drawer, but too far from my desk and am looking for a different storage option.
ReplyDeleteI love the big eyes in the background =)
ReplyDeleteAh yes, the joys of IKEA storage!!! As soon as my craftroom is finished, I can put up my new Expedit unit - very exciting!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't forget to post the finished card!
