WOYWW # 231

If perchance this is the first time you've encountered this weekly blog hop and you want to know the details...  The how to's and what for's are explained here.



Good Morning Peeps...here's my mess desk...this is how I left it last night...ready to go! Yahoo! A clean and tidy desk is like a blank canvas...sometimes it causes me to draw a blank.


Don't get me wrong...I can not think clearly among chaos...but as long as I have room to push things aside to make space to work on I'm okay. I know when my desk reaches maximum occupancy... it's time to create some order...but not until I finish a project...and I usually leave a small bin of items I want to play with... out...ready when I am.

A short and easy read. Thanks for stopping by. 
Leave a comment and I'll return the visit.
Be well ~ Carole

  1. Carole, a workspace cannot be messy, only showing more or less activity :-)

  4. Hi Carole, thanks for the earlier visit. Even though Betsy is loaded this week, I do have to have some resemblance of order before starting a project. I had just gotten home from running errands and quickly snapped the photo.
    Bath time tag is darling! The detail with the towels and towel bars is awesome, even the mirror looks real. I really wish I had your nack with die cuts. Have a great week.

  10. I tried the small bin of bits and pieces I wanted to play with next thing and it overflowed and turned into two small bins and then a third and then there was no desk left. I'm glad it works for you though. I don't have the discipline. It looks like you've been creating some fun tags.

    Pushing aside is perfectly acceptable! The tags look great, by the way!

  17. Boy do I agree with you! My desk is a mess while on a project....then I know when to clean up...usually when I finish the project. When all the projects are done...then it goes like this....quite..stare....my minds working but nothing is coming to mind! Love your tip on the foam core! Can't wait to do that!

    Thank you for your kind visit!

  18. Lovely, vivid colours on your tags and such fun images. I wish I could leave my desk all ready to go the next day because then I think I would adopt the same attitude as you do. Alas I have to tidy away after each session, Never mind, next summer I hope to get a little summer-house in the garden just for me to craft in - a dream come true! Have a lovely Wednesday and a creative week! Julie Ann xx #43

  21. I used to be a total mess in my office and from time to time it gets out of control then I get out of control and get it sorted, I hate having a messy room now and can't think with it that way. Thanks for visiting was nice of you to pop in and say hi.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Happy WOYWW

  22. I'm the opposite, I can't work unless I'm in complete chaos (he he). I really love those cute little bathtub tags.
    Have a great week.

  24. I think you need to have a certain amount of 'mess' when crafting - its boring to be tidy! - well that's my excuse anyhow! Thanks for calling by earlier,

  25. Thanks for your earlier visit to my blog. I love your tags! Agreed that a work space needs chaos amid a project, but I must clean between ideas. Kim 386

  27. Love the bathroom tags! I work better with a bit of clutter on the desk. I always know when it's gone too far and time to tidy up, it's usually when I lose the glue, tape, scissors, ruler etc under it all! Hugs. Pam#37
