Hi everyone,
Goodness me, is it really #256 already?! Just in case you have no idea what I'm talking about, this is the day when we share our workdesks with the world - check it out over at Julia's Stamping Ground, where you can join in the fun, have a snout around, link up and show us what's on your workdesk today!
So here's mine as it was first thing this morning, covered with half-used kits, collections and miscellaneous goodies all jumbled up together, a total mess ...
I had kept all these things together because they all came from SJ Crafts during the three months I've been on the DT, but it was all in such a muddle that when I came to pull out some bits to make a sample for the May challenge, I didn't know where to start!
So, I went through it all, sorted everything back into collections, put all the stickers and offcuts and loose bits into bags - in fact, I popped all the chipboard bits and diecuts out of their sheets and bagged them too (you know how annoying it is when they keep falling out and yet when you want them to come out they go all coy) - and then I took another picture ...
Ok, so it still looks a mess - but now it's an organised mess! For now anyway .....
One thing that is notably missing from my workdesk is my coffee mug - that's because this week I'm Living Below the Line, which means I'm eating and drinking only what I can buy for £1 a day. The budget didn't allow for coffee (or chocolate, wine, meat, gin and other necessities of life). Luckily, I like lentils and I'm allowed unlimited tap water, so it won't do me any harm, but I'm very glad it's only five days! If you would like to know any more about it, please click on the Live Below the Line tab at the top of the page.
Well, that's more than enough waffle from me - see you at Julia's :o)

It definitely looks more tidy in the second picture - that's about the level of tidy I should aim for to avoid disappointment :)
Happy WOYWW (on thursday!)
