 During October you will see many Halloween-y projects on my blog as I am joining in with











Find Leigh's main post here

We are away on holiday for the first week of October so I am having to schedule these posts - as a consequence they will not be the same as usual.

I have decided this year I will make a concertina junk journal and share a page a day.
It is made with black paper and the first few pages are matted with papers from DCWV Happy Haunts.


 This was the front cover:


and the first page - the first 5 pages are linked.


This is page 2



This is page 3

Happy Hopping!

WOYWW #800

   

It is Wednesday so I am linking to WOYWW at Sarah's craft shed

Follow the link to find out more about What's on Your Work Desk Wednesday and maybe join in... This is my post for WOYWW #800 ...

So we are away on holiday - I may be able to the odd photo!

But Sarah suggested we look back to our first shared desk with WOYWW.
I am a relative newbie - my first time was 18th June 2020 - in  the middle of Covid.

Some arty things:

Hope to visit you all later... it will be interesting to see all those first desks that were shared!

Happy WOYWW!



Happy Crafting!
