WOYWW? An altered angle!

Well Julia is always saying that it does not have to be the desk you are working on it could just be the project...yes?
Well these two items have taken more than their fair share of my time in the past couple of days



I am hoping that sometime before I grow old with grey hair and no teeth that I can have more time to craft!!! 
I need to craft....I don't need to do DIY....the washing up...or the vacuuming....that last one really does my back in no end!!! LOL
Anyways enough of my whingeing as a little treat I took a picture of the dining table last night...yes I'm back to making a mess of that again!! But that can only be good...right?


There is a bit of a project near the wall that is for the chunky book swap
...yes I really am trying Heather! LOL
In the background just visible are three shadow boxes that were a bargain from Wilkinsons....I've only just discovered that shop and what a treasure trove of things you did not know you need!!! HOL They are awaiting altering but which day soon that is going to be is anybodies guess!!!!
xoxo Sioux

  20. Well, I spy Japanese stars and what looked like a wine glass in a mug 'til I blew the pic up and realised it's a candle!! Wilkos is brill at times I agree. Never mind the DIY - says she who has just stripped the wallpaper in the front room - get on with those chunky pages.

  28. Now that IS a good thing Sioux...and a grand reward for the DIY..if we lived closer you could borrow Mr D and then I could visit and suck up some of your fab inspiration. I should like that! If you've enjoyed WIlkinson's, for goodness sake stay out of The Range!

  31. Let the crafty juices flow. Waiting to see what you do with shadow boxes. Gosh, don't you wish you could have someone come in once a week and take care of all those little things we all have to do. If ever I can, I will.
    Love a clean house, hate to be the on keeping it that way, so many other things we could all be doing that are fun. LOL
