It's that time of the week again, for Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday - when loads of people link up over at Julia's Stamping Ground and share views of their work desks. And here's my desk -
My sketch book shows a start on next week's ice-cream challenge over at Twinkle Twinkle - the colour combination we are working on is minty green and dark brown, for Mint Choc Chip - I still have quite a lot of work to do on it though.
Surrounding my sketch book is a bag of lace bits, a box of 'cool colour' matchpot paints (I have too many for one box so have divided them into cool and warm colours!), a hot plate, some foil pudding dishes (useful for EVERYTHING including melting wax), sticks of beeswax, Golden Gel, and a new roll of red and white bakers twine from Papermash that I have no idea what I am going to do with but really had to buy!!! And that's about it folks!
Thanks for stopping by my desk. I couldn't resist the Mint Choc Chip colours this week and made an ATC straight away. I wear a lot of brown and greens too. The jar is a prayer jar inspired from the Scrapbook your faith book. My Persian accents nestis die cut lace fitted round exactly round my Robinson's marmalade jar - what luck! BJ#8
ReplyDeleteLoveyour very interesting desk, your journal page looks good too. Enjoy your day. Hugs Rita 33.xx
ReplyDeleteHi Diana, love your page, the mint green is looking good and will be very dramatic once you add chocolate (all I can think of now is ice cream!). I love bakers twine, I even use it to wrap little gifts, to hang pendants and bunting and to decorate cards. I am sure you will think of lots of other uses too. Thank you for your visit. Anne x #30
ReplyDeleteThat's one eclectic mix of items on your desk - you could play that game where one person looks away and one item is removed and then you have to guess what went!! The mint green is such a lovely cool colour - I like what you've done in the book already!!

Diana! My toes are tickling I'm so looking forward to seeing what you show for this color combination next Monday. I need to get going on mine! *smiles* Norma

Oooh Diana, juicy and lovely! I love the idea of getting inspiration from an ice cream lol!! Very seasonal too. I love all the interesting stuff on your desk, and it's always nice to see another fan of Golden! I adore their gels. Definitely a Desert Island Artists' Materials can't-do-without lol!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your lovely comment on my blog - you are very kind! Sorry to leave you tantalised. If you look at my next post you will see close-ups of everything!
Sorry to be so long responding but I've been having problems with my comments awaiting moderation not being visible - it turns out it's a Blogger/Firefox problem since the latest Firefox upgrade, so I'm temporarily using IE till they sort it out - hopefully soon!
Happy belated WOYWW,
