Well I took some photos last night because I was sure my desk would not change and I had made something so thought I would show you that but then I got an email. That changed the look of everything on my tidy desk and it became a tad untidy.
Here are the photos I was going to upload this morning:

Yes, on Saturday we went to Ikea on the way back from Victoria Stampers (brill day thanks to Vix and Diane) and got two more rails for my punches to go on the side of the new shelving. Thought I would show you with a view of my tag display which now has been joined by some postcards - recognise some of the art? Bought a new cupboard too - guess what? They no longer do the silver grey like my other cupboards - red or white - I chose white! Mixes in better and hopefully one day will get painted to match some of the other stuff.
This is how I thought my desk was going to look this morning.

Spurred on by the tutors on Saturday I made a box (thanks for the idea Paul) for my Promarkers.
From these

But ... Tracey (Oyster Stamps) sent me an email to tell me that the rest of the Design Team were ready to upload their creations and I was to lead the group!!! Shock horror, as you can see I was still playing about with my Jewel Goddess (to the right of the boxes) and hadn't even started on my four new dies.

Whilst thinking what to do with them I carried on with the Promarker box and put dividers in for the colours (so organised, what!), ran the dies through Calista Calibur and fell asleep. Just got up now as I must have an early start and get on with things. I'll post details of the Oyster Stamps Blog Hop later - watch this space. In the meantime, why not hop over to The Stamping Ground and see what delights everyone has in store for you/us on What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday!!

And there was me thinking you are organised and ready for anything... lol! Don't you hate it when stores change the design or colour of something you love and want to keep going in the original!! Hope you have a successful day after your early start. Helen #9
Haha I'm tickled pink that my hasty "grab the thing that's nearest to put stuff in" cat food box for my promarkers has inspired you. I like the idea of putting dividers in. Maybe I should think about decorating mine too. Yours looks superb. Looking forward to seeing the blog hop later. Px
Can't wait to hear more about the blog hope! Great idea about the box too and good luck with it all!
Happy Wednesday hopping!

Love your rails for punches, I haven't got many but need something like that. All looks fab! Take care, enjoy WOYWW this week, I know I will! Zo xx 73
Great job on your organizing! I put my markers in an old planter and stuck toilet paper rolls in them! Patsy from

You room looks great, gotta love Ikea don't you. Most of my room came from Ikea. The box is looking great.
Have a great week.

Argh! That's me...last minute...but you'll pull it out of the bag without doubt. I love the shapes of those dies, will be back to see what loveliness they inspire from you. Nice to have the artworks on the wall...bugger about the cupboard colours..totally get the painted 'someday' plan.
ThanX for the peek, your craftroom looks tidy!
Happy WOYWW Wednesday!

Hi Neet - I only have two edge punches but they are a pain to keep handy and tidy. That looks like the perfect solution - and excuse to buy a couple more punches!! Happy WOYWW to you Helen 50
Love your craft room.. fabulous creations on the wall!! Love the punch storage. have a happy week, Hugs May x x x#31
love you wall of tags great idea for markers have agreat day
Yipee! More rails! I appreciated your comment reminding me to buy some rails since I realized I had a bookshelf side to put them on. I wanted to stop at a hardware store on the way home from work I was so inspired! But I realized that would be a folly until I got home and measured the shelf. Then I got sick and it slipped my mind. It it forefront and center now (and the shelf measured) so as soon as I get well I'm all over it!!!! And I hate it when they change or discontinue a piece of crafting storage (like your cabinet) so then when you go to buy more it doesn't match. Pffft!
Clever you (and Paul)! I might have to give this a go, too. :) Good luck with the blog hop!
Cheers,
Susan #145
Haa Haa - nothing like a panic session to mess your desk up for you! Not that it was your fault of course!
You have a fab craft room - thanks for the snoop. x Jo
Loving you Promarker storage and your punch shelving. I haven't been able to do WOYWW myself today, hopefully next week though xx
neet wish my craft space was as tidy & large..pam
Busy, busy, busy!! But it's all looking great so far! waving hi from the rainy hills of North Carolina :)
It all looks highly organised, Neet! You've certainly got a lot of punches.
Happy WOYWW,

dxxxx

A neat and tidy area doesn't last long for me either. Happy WOYWW! Warmly, Tracy #16
Love your punch storage! dani132
Great post this week, love the organised punch storage - you can see at a glance what you are looking for - and your tag display is lovely. But it's the Promarker storage that I'm really impressed with - a brilliant way to upcycle those cat food boxes and they do look so much better when tarted up - I've got a couple I use for storing stuff in but haven't decorated them and I really should after seeing what you've done with yours :) It's now much too late to wish you a happy WOYWW day so wish you a lovely crafty week instead. Elizabeth x #68
Neet, thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such a lovely comment. Health wise I'm up and down (as usual...) but had a bit of a health scare (unrelated) last week and it put me back quite a bit. Better yesterday, not so good again today, but that's normal. Back in my ARTHaven again tomorrow, hopefully!!
So glad you like my new album project. Yes, it's a fairly long ongoing project but there's no deadline on it, and after all the special projects I made for everyone else last year, this one's for me!!!

Great idea for your Promarker storage - if you get some little white adhesive circles and put them on the ends, you can colour them using the pen and it makes it easy to find the colour you want!

blows raspberry...I;m down south in June, but will be over with Jo in July - if you want to maybe we might manage a gathering?
That box you made looks great! Way to go. I was keeping a box and finally tossed it last night... oh well.
Happy WOYWW
Hugs, Kay #127
Your room looks great, Neet. I love that way of storing your punches. It's always such a problem to know what to do with them isn't it!!
Great promarker storage too.
Good Luck with your DT work.
Happy WOYWW

Wow! I'm out of breath just reading that lot! Love your storage racks - I'm keeping all these ideas in mind for when I finally have a home I can call my own that's not rented and will allow me to put holes in walls!
Love those new dies; I've got a couple on my Birthday wish list. Lacé templates were all very well and good, but it was a bit hit and miss getting them accurate, wasn't it?
Thanks for stopping by!
