Well, there's been a change to my workspace. You may remember from previous weeks that by the time I have laid out the stuff I am going to use on my table, I usually end up with a space the size of a postage stamp to work on.
On Saturday when I was at the Craft Barn Extravaganza in Lingfield I passed a shop selling secondhand pine. I put myself in reverse gear and stepped into the shop to see if they might have a small set of shelves. And indeed they had several. So on my way back to the car I made a purchase and you can see it sitting on my desk. There I can put all the stuff I am currently working with and have it arranged vertically, conveniently in front of me. Naturally I made a few other purchases on Saturday, one of which was a dinky little naked set of drawers. I've already started to decorate it.
I have actually spilt out of the work space and on to the kitchen table these past few days. This is because of the meltpot stuff I've been doing thanks to the fabby demos by Suze Weinberg. Decided it would be safer to have a bigger space. Trouble is, it has got left there as I am really into this beeswax.
Gosh your workspaces look really busy this week. It's good to see lots going on.

ReplyDeleteOooh both your desk and your table look like busy fun places to be. Hope you show us the little drawers when they're finished as I have several sets waiting for some special treatment.

I love working with beeswax, too. Lots of fun and you were smart to get more room for that project.
ReplyDeleteThose little drawers are so cute. Sorry I missed you last week. I thought I would get to everyone, but well, you understand. I sure can't wait to see the finished drawers, though.
