WOYWW 158

I can't believe it's really Wednesday again already! this week I was determined not to leave it until nearly Thursday, so I hope to have more time for snooping around other people's workdesks than I did last week...

If you haven't had a peek yet, pop over to Julia's blog Stamping Ground and have a happy WOYWW 158!
You can see that the window is festooned with ribbons - this is not my latest attempt at interior design, it is the contents of my overflowing ribbon drawer which I finally got around to sorting out. Actually, once I got stuck in, I really enjoyed it, in a weird, OCD kind of way - and my husband couldn't resist wading in to help (he's a bit OCD too, truth be told).
Anyway, the end result is very satisfying; I can see what I have now and I definitely don't need any more for a while...well, maybe the reds and oranges are a bit thin on the ground.....
You can also see a collection of bits and pieces I've been putting together ready for Shimells's ANFSCD challenge over at UKScrappers - I love how it gets you shopping in your own stash, like retail therapy without spending any money!

Hi Annie thanks for popping in to see me. I thought you had gone for ribbon curtains! Your craft room looks as if it is up high as I can see roof tops through your pretty curtains. WOYWW Hugs from Helen 14
