Another WOYWW is here!

(No. 193 already...wow!)
Which means that another week has flewn by. I missed last weeks WOYWW over at Julia Dunnit's as we spent a lovely skiing holiday but today I can at least submit an image of my workdesk as it looks at that very minute - and will be looking for at least the next four to five hours (because I have to leave after having written that post to get my son registered for grammar school (Gosh! How time flies!))....whoooeee! We will be celebrating that by having some yummy Sushi for lunch afterwards.

So here comes my desk:


There are still the things on the table I used for yesterday's bird wall hanging - wire and grippers, Distress ink pads, heat embossing tool, paint dabbers,.... well, the usual stuff mainly. And ....uh oh...I just see it now: a big No-Go: the brush head down in the water glass.... have to go get it out immediately. Just a sec...

...back again. I have been telling my pupils since ages not to do that as it bends the brushes tips which makes them useless for good painting. (Hope, none of them will see that *gg). Seems I am slacking off...

Hope I will find the time to visit your desks later today.

Hugs,

  1. Your desk looks like you are ready to create some art! Confession time - I left a brush overnight in a pot of water too......not good. Happy WOYWW, Anne x #37

  2. What a huge desk!! Lots of room to play.... Very occasionally I forget to take my brush out of the water overnight, eeeeek!! I hate that! Have a good day. Helen, 2

  3. Looks creative and fun! Big confession, my "crafting" brushes (as opposed to my "arty" brushes) the ones I use for medium, gesso and stuff like that, live up side down in a jar of water pretty much permanently(ouch)They are pretty cheap ones, and to be honest, it doesn't seem to harm them terribly.
    Enjoy those Sushis!!!

  6. Ah the brush thing..always explained by them not having a memory so they don't know to bounce back after being mis treated! Funny what you see in a photo that you would otherwise miss.

  9. Oops... I didn't even know you weren't supposed to do that with brushes!! But, like Astrid, all mine are so cheap I don't suppose it makes much difference...

    Fabulous looking desk again - I've got behind on visiting (no time to share my desk even this week), but I'm on my way to have a look at the bird hanging straight away - those wires tell me it's going to be a die amelie special!!

  11. Yip, that brush is not going to be a happy camper! Was it a 6"x 6" project you have finished? cos that is all the space you have vacant! I land up working in the tiniest spot on my desk too! Feeling right at home.
