What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday is here again!!
As you can see... there is not a lot going on with my desk today.... I took this photo before I left the house this morning to go to Al Khobar for some retail therapy!! Zamiles, the 'scrapshop' in Al Khobar has a section where there is all sorts of lovely hardware bits and I wanted to stock up on them... plus get more double sided tape and I can never resist the lace and ribbons....
so this is the desk this afternoon after I returned with my haul!! LOL I have rikrak and ribbon and lace and silk and strands of pearls and coloured wire and flowers and heaps of brass things that will look great once I have 'distressed' them a little!!
This is the dream box that I was in the process of making and filling last week. I have decided that I will put my wedding photos and memorabilia in it.
These are all the bits that I have filled it with so far... my wedding photos are still in the UK so its one of those 'will have to completed later' type of projects.
This is the narrower version I made as a class example and I used Time as the theme.
With the book inside - which also needs finishing off!!
wow! i wish my workdesk looked like that! some totally amazing work happens there :)

Nice tidy desk! But didn't you have a good time and what a lovely haul you brought back from shopping. Love the altered boxes and what a great idea to make a wedding one!
ReplyDeleteOOh Annette the box is gorgeous - I love those K & Company Blue Awning papers I'm onto my second pack of them and I never tire of them, they just always feel so fresh. Loving the before and after pictures of your desk - (particularly the after) lots and lots of lovely things - haven't done that in a while - mmm think I need some retail therapy

ReplyDeleteOh wow you really know how to shop!! Love those brassy bits, they will look fab once you#ve been at them.
ReplyDeleteThe box and contents are looking just gorgeous xx
Ooo...ooodles of loverly stash. Love the boxes Annette but the one I would reaally like to look in, is the one with 'Secrets' on!! Dunno how you're gonna get your stuff home. You may have to hire a plane just for your scrapbook stash. *Ü* TFS. ~Glen~
ReplyDeleteBoth boxes are fab but I really love the "Dream" one.
ReplyDeleteUmm can I ask, just how are you gonna fit all your purchases in the alotted space for your return home...I seem to remember it was a bit on the tight side going out there and you have done a little bit of shopping since (and not just stash) LOL
