Woyww #254 Oops... I mean #255

Hello crafty friends from all over.

I missed last week (boohoo)
I have been so immersed in making wedding stuff these last weeks, I am going batty.
My son's getting married....this is my youngest of 5 sons.
My 2nd son got married last year.
My 3rd son isn't married, but he has a child with his high school sweetheart, who he broke up with for about 8 years and they are back together now.
My 4th son has not married, but he has been with his girlfriend for 9 years and they have 3 kids.
My oldest son has been dating one gal for 5 years and she does not want to marry cause her first marriage was real bad.
But enough of that... here are some pics of my beautiful messy crafty desks...
1)
Main desk.... it may look clean, but it is only clean in the center. LOL
2)
Desk 2  -  loaded with papers for a wedding mini album
3)
This is full of wedding album embellishments, etc.
~~~
If anyone saw my "woyww # 252"  post, you would have seen the shelving unit my hubby made and this is what it looks like. I put dotted paper to decorate each little box and put ribbon through it for the handles.



Thanks for stopping by..... and please

Woyww #253

I got to go shopping..... AND make a huge mess of my desk. LOL
I got to go to Michael's yesterday and today.

Then my grandchild came over to stay for a while. (She lives here sometimes and with her other grandparents sometimes).
BUT...My poor little Brookie is sick..... so, the last thing I bought today .... a thermometer ( bottom right corner).

My mess of my desk. Enjoy LOL

Everything was on sale or I used mega coupons.


And more still in the bag.
As you can see, this is not a normal Michael's bag.
Here in my city, we have to bring our own bags to all stores.


Thanks so much for stopping by!
Take care!
and see you all next time.

Who does the dishes?.....


My hubby does the dishes in my house.
I work part time and have outside clients. But I am off 3 days a week.

Hubby still does the dishes.
And this is how he does them...

He sorts before he puts the utensils in.

Oh well... I don't care!  Why, you may ask?
Cause HUBBY does the dishes.
LOL

Now, I found this wonderful picture on the net
and just had to share, 
cause I so need to lose weight before my youngest son's wedding.

I may have to make me a sign like this!


Thanks for stopping by!
Come back anytime,

Me , an artist?

Nah, I am no artist...

But I joined in 
"The Documented Life"
&
Journal 52
art journaling fun anyway!

Why 2, you ask?
Well, since I have never done an art journal
challenge thingy
AND
I tend to jump on the band wagon of every new thing I see on youtube,
I figured , why the heck not!
I loved art in junior high school (don't even ask how long ago that was!)
And when I was in art class as a freshman in high school, the teacher said I was good..... HAha, I think that was her job so that the students didn't skip the class.


I joined in these 2 journaling thingys late and am way behind. But it isn't about pressure to keep up,
it is about doing some art and enjoying it.

Here is how I made the first week of my 
"Documented Life" journal : 



Here is how I did the tabs on my
"Journal 52" journal:


Here is my Week 1 for Documented Life
( the prompt was "your front door") 

It says" Shut the Front Door" (as you can see below)
on the inside it says
"My front door is pretty lucky,
Every time it gets shut,
Someone wonderful comes along and opens it...
So, please, Shut the Front Door"



Week 1 prompt for "Journal 52" was 
"Up, Up and Away"
The first thing that came to my mind was a bird flying and dangling a teacup with sparkles dripping out of the cup.
So here it is.... 


Thanks for stopping by ...
come back again any time!

Woyww #252

Oh gosh.....
Tax time is here!
I have spent the last 3 hours prepping mine. I would rather be doing something... anything else.

But hey... I did get to grab a pic of my crafty mess for all to see.

Come join in the fun.... I am participating in "WOYWW"  = What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday. 
Visit Julia and her blog>>> here to find out more.

1)    I am making a vintage style guestbook for my youngest son's wedding. 


2)... This is the new cabinet my hubby made for me.


3).... This is my 2nd desk where I try and have space for my project life and art journaling supplies.
Unfortunately it becomes a catch all for so much more.
The cabinet above is going to go on this desk to clear up some of the mess. Maybe next week I can share how it will look cleaned up. LOL 


Thank you all for stopping by!

Now off to visit some other crafty desks from around the world!
