What's on your workdesk. Wednesday.

I have decided to join Julia today. I love seeing what people are up to and how messy their desks can get. As you can see I am really untidy. I have been trying out my new distress ink colours and some crackle paint and corrugated cardboard. Behind the inks you can see the paper flower wreath that I am working on. I have also just finished decorating my ink storage tin (see picture below).

You can just see my little tote which has some of my re-inkers in.

I pasted various bits 'n' bobs onto the tin and then dragged some 'Lettuce' paint over the top.

I couldn't resist taking a photo of all of my inks together.

  1. Fab space but I find it very distressing to see all your inks cos I dont have any distressing inks :-) [not sure I would know what to do with them if I had to be honest].

  4. Hi Karen,
    Look at all those gorgeous new inks. I can't wait to get them.
    The only thing is, we will all need new ink holders now to fit all of them in.
    Your ink holder looks brilliant decorated. I am too scared to touch mine.

  6. WOW - love all your inks - there looks so much more set out like that... few colours I still need (understatement)...

    I'm loving the wreath you're working on and would love to make one myself as I already love making the flowers. Need grungepaper!!

    Your desk looks wonderfully creative.
