... I know, another Wednesday... already! Thank you all for your lovely birthday wishes last week for Grim, he did say thank you on the post but in case you missed it... anyways... today on my workdesk is... a pile of art... which are my workshop samples... all piled on top of each other waiting to be boxed up for transportation... crikey, that makes them sound like convicts being transported to Botany Bay... mind you, I wouldn't mind being transported there... always fancied a trip Down Under. I am off at a tangent already... back to... the samples... for my workshops... if you would like to see more of them and about them... please pop on over to The Stamp Attic where all the deets are :O))
Last week I had a few questions about what is under my desk on the shelves... well, they are my most prized and treasured possessions... my Wendy Vecchi stamps and books... they are in the binders you can get for them *yet to be altered, tis another on the "to do" list LOL... am hoping Wendy might pop over for a week or so and do them for me!!* And... remember my LOVE hanging thingy??? I have decided to go for it and alter it... but am building up to that by hanging a few bits of art off it first, you know, just to see if it suits colour LOL Above the desk are the two little ATC's that I am giving away this week... and next to them are my three main gadgetty things I need all the time; Dymo labeller jobby, Crop-A-Dile and the Tiny Attacher.
For a change, here is a pic of inside a drawer... my paints drawer to be precise... and no, those aren't all Traditional Tan pots... they are nearer to me (in a desk drawer LOL) Anyways... if you are new to this Wednesday lark (not actually the day Wednesday cos that would be just too weird) but to the concept that is WOYWW, hop on over to *Head Desk Examiner and the lady who very cleverly thunked up with amazing phenomenon...* Julia's blog where everyone sets off on their hugely enjoyable nosey-parker literally around the world! Tis a fabby thing to be part of... come on, join in, you know you want to! Thanks for looking... have a grand day... see ya in Bloggerspace... TTFN

I agree with Jennie, your desk is waaaay too tidy. I think we should come and help mess it up! Good luck with your workshops, and see you Sunday!!
I was by earlier and you didn't have your post up. HMMM. You sure snuck it in quickly. Thanks for making me chuckle. You even kept it pretty short this week (grin). Happy WOYWW.
Hi Hels
lovely tidy desk, hope the workshop goes well, have great day, sue,x
Love your desk - it is so organised. Popping over to Jens now to see your samples.
Are you OK Hels? I thought your post was a bit short.(!!) See, you give the IMPRESSION of being disorganised and all, but you are actually very neat tidy and organised - stuff waiting to be posted, orderly stamp collection, paint in containers...really you belong in the tidy section I'm sure!
MMMMMMMmm, too tidy for me too, but I love, love, love looking at it.
ooo wish I had that space and all that stash!
I do love your row of stamps, not one any way like any of mine and I'm now thinking I must spread my collection, as those grim-scarry half dead looking people are being to grow on me, and ideas for dark scarrrrry cards and other makes are filling my mind! Hedgehogs and teddy's just aren't scrarrrry enough!
(Lyn)
he he there seems to be a dymo thing going on.. wonder how many more will be spotted today!
All the best with the workshops hunny, if i lived closer i'd come along to bug u xx i'm sure they'll be a bundle of fun just like you x
this wednesday lark is far too enabling...now I want to get more paints for my drawer!
Fab desk and love your drawer full of goodies Hels. Best wishes for your birthday too.
You are so tidy Hels!! I need lessons :0) xx Hope you are well hun xx Miss you xx
Lovely looking tidy desk hun.those pile of projects look stunning will have to pop by and check them out later.
hugs judex
Great desk and very tidy. I love the pictures on the notice board of your cat. Have a good day.
Elaine
Contained mess is more than acceptable! Whats a tiny attacher? Might have to go google that...
good morning Hels,
did you post this yesterday or this morning ? You are fast :)
Jennie is right : I don't bet this is the desk you are busy working at.. this is a before or after...LOL
When we were in London in April we went to a shop close to Covent garden and there they had a lot of those "love" hangings and other stuff in metal. I'm quite sure this is the same shop where you bought this beauty !
And yes, I was at Ally Pally and it was me :)
A few months before the craftshow I won something at the artistic stamper and you started to post on ATT shortly before the craftshop.
When we were at the craftshow we stopped at the booth of the Artistic Stamper watching Jennie demoing.
I talked a bit to her and then suddenly I said : " but then you are Jennie ! I won at your website" and then she said " this is Hels".
Then I knew this had to be you cause Hels is not a common name and you must be the Hels of ATT !
So many booths we visited and the one we start a conversation at seems to be you and Jennie, that was such a coincidence and it must have been like this.
You can read the whole London story and see the photo with Jennie ( you were too busy to get on the photo) at my blog " weirdo's in London" with this link

My biggest purchase that day was at the artistic stamper : I bought all the Tim dies :)
greetings from belgium
Inge
great ATCs! i hope I win the one you're offering!
hiya, it's a single wardrobe, no hanging rail, just shelves.

I've found a heart hangy thingy a bit like yours at JoJo Maman so I am inspired (copying) you and getting one to decorate my workspace.
** kate **
ooh good - nice to see that someone else thinks the space under the desk is just as important/ useful as the top!
They may not all be trad tan....but I bet there's more than one tube of it in there ;)
Great desk pics hun, good luck for the workshops :0)
*hugs* Heather x
Hi Hun, well after going back to bed about 3.45 I still couldn't sleep so read for a while and must've dropped off after 5.00 then woke up at 7.30!! Went back to sleep and got up just after 9.00 - think I must've had more sleep than you after you're early morning blog-hopping ;-)
I like the 'Love' as it is but it will look gorgeous adorned too
Anne xx
loved looking in your draws lol and fab desk
with regard to the fence envy thing it took two weeks to put up and the curves were drawn with pencil and string and even longer and tons of blades to cut out the curves (so much easier on card I tell ya) It has lasted well but was expensive to create
good luck with your fence selection and thanks for the snoop
Kate xx
I I do love your craft room and all those lovely hanging hearts. Lovely desk with a 3 tier stamping holder where did you get that one - I want one. Its terrible you go and see all these lovely blogs and you keep seeing things you want. Have a nice WOYWW Lots of love Jo xx
great space - thanks for sharing ;O)
Fab desk and sooo tidy and EARLY!! That's the kind of tidy I like as it's still got so much going on. Lots of loveliness there. I drool over your triple tier ink applicator stand. I can see I'm going to be to overloaded to get on that plane home when I go to CHA in January as there's so much I want/oops NEED!
xx x
i'm beginning to feel the need to purchase a Dymo label maker today! Used to have one too but I think I threw it away when they went out of fashion and I could not the tape refills for love nor money!!
Hey ho
xoxo Sioux
Morning! Thanks for sharing your great desk! Hope you have a wonderful WOYWW!

I would love to got through that pile of samples :)
I also use my DYMO often, they are fab! I think I'll try to rearrange my Distress Inks in the same way that you have yours. It seems to be an easy way to find the wanted colour at once.
Hugs
Maarit

Hi Hels I am bit late this morning I am having BIG problems with broadband which keeps going down so could not post last night or this morning. Hope you don't mind but I have added the Sunday Stamper to the WOYWW as well, just in case broadband goes again LOL. Anyways, lovely artwork on that desk of yours, wish I lived closer so I could attend your workshops, would be great fun. Very tidy desk too. My Sunday Stamper challenge piece is here Have a good day Hels, Tracy x x
I am late commenting - ha, ha it seems like the whole world already did! Anyway great desk, love your workshop thingies - wish I could go to one of them but 1400 km is just a bit too far to go!
Hugs,
Cardarian
Thanks for answering my nosy question Hels. I am hoping to get some Wendy V stash soon.
Also hoping for my craft room to be finished so I can have a desk to share and put Wend V stuff under ;)
Will husband be listening if I read last bit out loud? NO !

What a fab Stampotique collection - Ooh, I must get myself some of those before I change my mind. You're still an incredibly tidy stamper, Hels, considering all that painty stuff you do!
Always amazing to see how much stuff you have on your desk. Thanks for the look inside the drawer!
Have a nice day
** Evi **
Hi Hels - love the look of all that work waiting to be 'transported' - wish I could come and play at one of your workshops but I live too far away - Jacqueline xx.
You've been really busy and you've tidied up too!! xx
Great desk, lovely pile of art work there!
I don't think you use that desk or room at all, it is always so clean and tidy! Leave your hangy thing it looks great as it is!
Looks very tidy this week! Um, exactly HOW MANY Wendy Vecchi stamps have you got down there - looks like a LOT!!
Love your tidy space and am giggling at the numbers of 'friends' who want to come and mess it up for you. :-)

Lovely desk as per usual Hels and some gorgeous stuff on it too.... and Alfie is worth every penny of that £99 so go buy him a climbing play place... he could have it for Christmas and birthday and easter and anything else you can think of!! ;)

Great desk, love the shelfs and organisation in your room. Happy WOYWW! Thank you for visiting my blog, and your lovely comment. Basic Grey paper is fab, I have lots but need to start using them instead of looking at them.

Happy WOYWW...Esther xx
Hi Hels
As its been ages since i was here - it really looks like youve settled down in your craft room now. Sorry i haven't been by, or been in touch for a while, hope to catch up with you soon,
Paula x x x
Looks highly organised and just lovely! The LOVE will look fab!
Chrissie
Wow, tidy organised workspace, looks really lovely :)

I think your room always looks fab and I could probably be locked in there for a month or two without batting an eye-lid. I also have a "things to alter box" which will soon have to become a skip as there is always another plain chipboard orphan or whatsamecallit on the loose...
I just want to move into your craft room, Love Hazelxo
Fabulous workspace -so well organised. I love your stamp display and the TH goodies!
Hugs, Sylvia x
Love the look of your projects, great colours. I like how Lady Julia asks us all to keep our posts short and then chastises you for.... keeping your posts short!!
Hugs
Brenda
Great workspace! You have some very cool stamps on the top shelf.
OOooo what a great deal of stamps and stash to rummage through. I love being so nosy!
