WOYWD - Before and After

This is how I left my studio....I've decided to call it a studio, sounds better than a craft room, lol, yesterday, what a mess....
I had been using the machine and managed to place it on a small space on the desk...







I'd had loads of stamps out, water colours, just about anything you could name....







and more stamps...







Decided then I better have a bit of a tidy up and ta da...... here's the result..

A couple of chipboard hearts which I've going to cover, decorate and give to my granddaughters (this should have been for Easter, but got a bit behind), some TSS metalwork which I was playing with, so just a bit of a sample really.  Anyway, nothing very interesting, but at least tidy.

Why not pop over to Julia's blog and see what everyone's up to.

    I am impressed... that must have taken some tidying up!! LOL Can't wait to see what you do with the hearts... and kids won't mind, expect they got an Easter egg as well!!
    I am jealous.. would love one of those desk caddy things but they are such a price!!

    ooh studio, yes I might start saying that too sounds more arty! Is that an OT lite or something similar on your desk, reminded me I was thinking of getting something like that as the desk lamp I use is useless, how do you find it to use?

    This looks very familiar - I enjoy building little avalanches on fold-up tables with open folders too!

    Loving the studio Ann - I always love that clear cutting mat feeling you get when you've tidied up - it lasts a whole what 5 minutes in my house - does it last any longer in yours?
