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.
This was the full post
 It was before I really knew what was going on!
This is what I wrote:

I noticed on Angela's post WOYWW - I don't know if I will be  too late for this as this post is scheduled for the morning in Australia...but this is the picture of my workdesk as I sorted out my ATCs...


At the time we were living in a rental and this is an alcove in the third bedroom. WE have come a long way since then!

I also shared some of the ATCs placed in little booklets:






To get back to now...remember the journal page I shared last week?


Inside it had pockets and inserts:


This was based on an idea that I had used in a swap. My partner has just received these from me:


Which open to...



To finish here are some of our holiday photos:
We have seen some unusual things:


Some arty things:

Lots of wildlife










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

Happy WOYWW!



Happy Crafting!

  1. I really enjoy seeing your wonderful artwork every week Susan, you have amazing ideas which I really like. A lot has happened since your first post, funnily enough I’d have said that you’d started earlier than 2020, you’re obviously part of the WOYWW history!!
    Happy 800, sending hugs,

  2. Oh I do love Dale Chihuly - I did a scrapbook page about one of his exhibits many many years ago. And the sheep trail looks wonderful too. Love that GG booklet, and glad to see the innards this week. The hat-on-books is a wonderful image as well. All in all, this week on WOYWW has been the most amazing fun.
    Recovering today but can't miss out!
    Happy 800th WOYWW.

  3. Hi Susan I remember when you joined since you were from Oz, a rarity on WOYWW! I was still blogging regularly then, it's last few years I've become intermittent.
    Loved your travel photos, my sister has taken lots of silo art but the sheep was really special. Loved the CASE of swap which open out to tags too.. well done.
    Thanks for sharing, and may God bless you and keep you and all whom you love safe and well!
    Prayer hugs, Shaz in Oz.x

  6. Great to see your desk as was in 2020. Adore the pastel foldouts you made for the swap and I was actually at Kew many years ago and saw the glass exhibition there. Hugs BJ#6
