WOYWW it's not Wednesday

... well not here anyway, but I'm betting it's still Wednesday somewhere else, maybe Arizona?  And we all know that this desk hopping journey lasts longer than a normal length Wednesday!


Now, if you have been here before you might notice an improvement (of sorts). Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING has been completely tidied away. Where is it all (I hear you ask)? Good question.

OK, so what you can see is ...

3 x A5 pages of watercolour paper ... making more backgrounds with cheap acrylic paint. Why am I using cheap acrylic paint? That's another question with no good answer.
Old ice cream container holding lots of junk texture making implements.
Some lovely Christmas cards from online friends.
Some Memory Box dies that I just purchased needed really badly.
White hydrangeas from my neglected garden in an ancient pottery vase I made in high school. (It's very heavy and solid, and it kinda leaks, but hey, I love it. Maybe I could paint some sort of crafty sealer on it's base? Any ideas?)
Oh, and a new (whoops, did I say "new"?) book that I wanted needed.
And my dinosaur mobile phone.

OK, if you are wondering what this is all about, go see Julia.

  4. Great backgrounds. Doesn't matter how expensive or cheap the paint is if you're getting the look you want! I can definitely see why you needed those dies -- they are to "die" for -- hahahaha. Happy WOYWW on Thursday from Laura #90

  5. Love your backgrounds and lots of interesting bits and pieces on your desk. There is cheap paint and nasty paint. I bought some nasty paint from the $2 shop and when it dried it literally cracked the canvas!! I then threw my bargain paints away and have bought middle of the line stuff. I can never resist another book so let me know how you find your new one. I am really trying to take it easy as I felt wonderful at the beginning of the week and then did some cleaning which has set me back as I popped some stitches!! oops. ordered to bed!!
    Hopefully we can catch up in the new year.
