WOYWW 279

Here we are again - another Wednesday - another desk reveal.  Go here if you want to know why I am showing my desk and all will become clear.

Had a busy weekend, went off to Harrogate on Thursday, did a bit of "C" shopping in the town and bumped into my friend's son who we were planning to have dinner with on the Sunday.  Twenty one years since I have seen John and his wife (apart from a couple of weeks ago at his parents' Golden Wedding); and all the times we have been to Harrogate and I don't see him until now - Fate!

Anyway, I digress, a lovely meal at one of our favourite pubs, a good night's sleep and off to Harrogate Showground to meet up with my lovely Oyster family.  Great busy day with the Brusho paints and off for a meal with them and friends to a local hotel.

Another day dawned, beautiful weather all weekend and another busy show day followed by a meal at Betty's Tea Rooms with John and his delightful family (wife and daughter) where we managed to play catch up on what they were all doing.  I didn't want the evening to end.

Back to the hotel and off to York ... in the pouring rain  :(  the next day.  Thank goodness for the Outlet Centre where I spent and spent.  And it rained yesterday just as hard.  Still, we didn't have the storms that those poor folks had in Scotland.

Well, you came to see my desk - here is a shot to the left where I have set out some of the "bursts: from the Brusho paints which fascinates folks.  I am hoping to diecut some flowers from them before too long but I need to get some more paint swatches made as Tracey has begged the ones I had from me.



Had a busy day and think I am coming down with a cold so here is my working space at the moment - needs clearing later today.


Last week I showed you the polymer clay I had done but I omitted to show you this beautiful pendant that my very talented friend, Irene from Chester, made for me.  She makes me something every year - isn't she a love.  The finish on all her work is absolutely fantastic as you can see in the second photograph!



That's it folks, I feel a bit grotty so off to bed with a hot hot drink for another hour and then I must get some work done.  Take care!

ps if you pop back Friday I am starting a blog hop off with prize!
