WOOWDFSSM

Ok I'm sure you're all familiar with the Wedneday snoop around other peoples work areas. As yet I've never been organised brave enough to expose you all to my mess! However I've been away on a crafty weekend in Skipton with a bevy of crafters including the design team from Scattered Scarlett , The Ribbon Girl, Jane , Hannah and last but not least Sid. Unfortunately Jean couldn't make it as she had to work but hey don't feel sorry for her. Work included a once in a lifetime trip to JAPAN yes Japan. the rest of us would get a trip to Newcastle. But she was there in spirit and we were grateful for all her preparation, including fab things to make and delicious food to eat. 

So I thought I would share with you the mess creativity we got up to for four days. Here's the table after we had finished. So this is What's On Our Workdesk Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
We made a variety of stuff and if you blog hop you will get to see all this lovelyness in detail.

Finally I want to leave you with this photo. The perfect eyewear for crafting don't you think!


Thanks for popping by

Six crafters, a cottage and a cake

Some time ago six crafters got together for a weekend of fun, craft and food. Jean, Gail, Julie, Hannah, Andrea and me. We stayed in a delightful cottage near to Skipton. We visited the nearby craft shops, The Stamp Man and Samuel Taylors at Embsay to checkout the goodies and of course we parted with our money!
Here's a display of the lovely projects Jean and Gail prepared for us. We made money boxes, hangy things, cards and a mini album. We crafted day and night so don't think it was all fun. At one point we had collected all the lamps in the cottage and arranged them around the table. Nothing was going to stop us crafting!
Jean, Andrea and Gail were determined to finish that book before retiring to bed.

Did I mention food? Well the food was delicious especially the cake and it was lovingly prepared by Jean. Thanks Jean.



We enjoyed ourselves so much we're going again in November!
