Since I have started participating in Julia's What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday, a very strange thing is happening - it always seems to be Wednesday!! It only seems five minutes since last week's WOYWW post.
My mojo has taken a runner at the moment so I thought I would leave it wherever it is for a while and give it time to come back of it's own accord. To fill time I decided I would try and make some paper roses - here is my first attempt. I'm always making paper flowers, but I've never tried these before.
Well that's my desk, albeit close-up. I thought I would also share some more of my craft room today. If I look right from where I sit, this is what I see.
Look at those shelves bowing! The bag at the bottom right is for my scrap paper which I recycle. It's a bit of a mess isn't it?
Since last week, I have been getting to grips with my new sewing machine and I love it. It's so easy to use which is ideal for me.
I look forward to visiting your workdesk this Wednesday.
Hugs, Clare x

I love checking out your desk on a Wednesday [in a very stalkerish kinda way - He He]
All that lovely crafty goodness - I hoping that when we've moved my Hubbie will allow me to have a desk in the dining room [bit of a dqueeze but well worth it] at the mo he thinks all my stash should live in the shed!!!!
Congratulations on the well deserved awards.
Have a great day - Ju xx

Hi Clare, Very tidy shelves, you look very organized. Love the flowers, and the idea of the bitty paper bag could work well for me - I'll see if I can find a hook! Cuttlehugs, ikki x
You see there has to be a penalty for such wonderful organisation and yours is ... erm ... bowing shelves :0) And yes you are right ... it was Wednesday only yesterday!
Love the flowers you have made! And I hope your bowing shelves can stand up to the weight - I have some like that, lol.

Your roses are beaautiful, I really must give them a go but I am waiting till I can find grungepaper as they seem to come out nicer with it.
Your desk and shelves are awfully neat and tidy... had to smile at the laden shelves!!
Yes Wednesdays definitely come around more often now ... I've been having a go at these flowers too, but yours are nicer!!
Girl if that's a mess, you must have passed out when you saw my desk! Love the roses..great way to be crafty when your mojo's on hol.
I think there are 5 Wednesdays a week and only 2 to catch up on everything else.... Love your roses!
gorgeous roses, they look so pretty hun, hope that the old mojo returns soon..xx
ohoo a pink handled BigShot, do they work any better that the older ones?? And I love your roses/flowers, they really like far better than any you can buy unless they cost an arm and a leg! Your crafty space looks very tidy!! Love your useful boxes, I just have to buy one when I see one!!

Oh yes, Wednesdays come round in the blink of an eye now! Love the roses, I really must have a go at my own flowers one day, but my god! Stamping and cutting them out would drive me insane!! Love all your shelves and it's very neat and tidy. I have one bin and two plastic bags by my desk, one for general waster, one for paper and one for plastic. The paper and plastic then get put in the recycling.
Brenda
ooh those flowers are stunning, how did you make them???

It looks very tidy to me :) Love the roses.

clear desk ...neat shelves ...maybe thats why 'mojo' has gone off for a break lol ...but he left 'creativity' at home ....love the roses....the pastal ones are so subtle in colour but I love the petal shape of golden one.
it's fantastically tidy and the flowers are lovely. Love the green one
At least you can show your desk Clare....you're nice and tidy. I would be mortified if anyone saw mine lol!
I love your flowers, they're all gorgeous. I'm very naughty and never make roses now since I discovered Wild Orchid Crafts!!
