For 250 weeks (oh my goodness!) our friend Julia Dunnit has hosted an every changing and always constant array of desks around the world. The next couple of months have been and will be super busy with two trips, lots of classes, kids moving back to the area, but I did want to say Happy Anniversary this week to WOYWW.
It's surprisingly tidy. On the corner of the desk is my Planner....for the Documented Life Project. Here are my last two weeks. On the left is the week with "add a bird" and the week on the right is "include something from a magazine".

I just finished a class at my local store The Stamp Cache on stencil techniques. A GIANT shout out to Jennie Atkinson for her amazing flower tutorials on her blog...I found her when Tim Holtz called her out as a February tag winner. I love the internet!!
In the US we have something called the Cooperative Extension Service which is program of our University system...they have wonderful information about home and hearth. For three days last week some shop keepers in our town worked with CES to host a lot of classes throughout the town. I was asked to do do something with paper...in an hour...that wasn't messy. Hmmm.
Yep I went back to the guy who brought me to the party...Tim Holtz. Turned out of the seven people who signed up for my class, six were already friends, and of course I made a new one out of Annie. We made little 3" x 3" books out of a piece of scrap book paper.
We had a blast!! Hope your finding fun in your days too.
WOW, your little book is incredible. Of course, I like your DLP pages, too. That bird is adorable. Happy WOYWW from #2.
ReplyDeleteI love making those books and they are such a nice gift. I too am a Holtz fan and he has just been to my town...lucky me! #29

ReplyDeleteThat little book was an inspired idea, I can see why everyone enjoyed the class so much!

love the nice neat desk...way too much snow outside for the first day of spring though! Beautiful pages and I think your 3x3 book is a hit! Hope you have a great week! Vickie #43
ReplyDeleteTidy space you have and what a pretty book you made with your class hugs Nikki 3
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post full of eye candy today! The bird is just awesome, and I bet everyone loved your class... that's a hard call, one hour and not to messy - you came up with a terrific project.
ReplyDeleteSara, Oh my, all are such lovely pieces, it's really difficult to pick a favorite among such beauties but do love those darling little books. It's hard to imagine such wonderful pieces coming from such a tidy desk, mine always look like a cyclone hit.
