Bit late.....well a lot late posting this! WOYWW time again so why not pop over to see Julia and the rest of the gang :)
The other side of my little cupboard of craft!
It has my Fiskars cutter permanently there on the desk top...along with offcuts of paper/card still to be stored away/used! LOL...I'm still trying to decide what to do with the pringles cartons!
The little shelves have nearly all my wood mounted stamps on them...I say nearly as my T!m skeleton one is stored in a really useful box with the more frequent used unmounted/acrylic ones....hey as a bonus you get a shot of my tootsies!! LOL
I have 101 little/medium sized jobs that need to be done! I have to do them or my brain starts thinking and when it starts thinking I start to well up.....I am fed up of welling up so I need to not think and just do!
This is something I have just done.....
My friend was going to take this to the tip as she has just bought a beautiful new wooden patio set to die for.........I've grabbed this and tarted it up with some black Hammerite.....it was silverish and on the rusty side! LOL
xoxo Sioux
Black hammerite is such brilliant stuff ...love what you have done.
ReplyDeleteI find it hard to believe that two wonderful ladies on here have lost their OH's within weeks of each other. Keeping occupied is great but let the tears out too ...all my love xx
Great work area and rejuvenated table !!
ReplyDeletestamps, stamps and more stamps.... we're all the same really, lol...
ReplyDeletetake care,

Ooh I need a table just like that for my little verandah. Love the really useful box ;-)

Fat stamps, cute toes, lovely table - I painted an entire car with red hammerite once. (it was only a Fiat 127, so quite small)....!!
ReplyDeleteOooo that looks lovely, well done for the salvage!
ReplyDeleteI thought for a minute that you had the perfect crafting set up there with the snnacks so close to hand!!
I have always said that thinking is bad for you - you are doing so well xxx
Too ashamed of the clutter on my desk to post it! Love your stamps and great save on that table. Can only image how tough it must be. Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog. Hugs Anesha
ReplyDeleteLove what you have done with table. It has been proven that it is better to let the tears out, keeping them in just drives it deeper and cause other things, let it go - I remember crying while walking my dog once when I was grieving - and I thought what on earth.....
ReplyDeletehugs Linbyx
Love your table. Keeping busy is good therapy but there's nothing wrong with tears. Let it all out if you feel like it. You are amongst friends here :-)

Wow, what a fab finish you got on the table...great job. I understand the need to move around and avoid the thinking, but it will exhaust you and the thinking will happen anyway....don't bottle it gal, it's not good for you. ANd certainly don't worry about what others think...they aren't friends if they think you shouldn't be having moments and tears by now. Gracious.
ReplyDeleteWow you have done a fantastic job on that table, can't believe it was heading for the dump. Great creative space too and I like the look of all your stamp shelves. Have a good evening, Tracy Evans x
ReplyDeleteI love nosing at other peoples craft sash. All those lovely stamps!!! I made a pens, rulers etc holder out of old tubs and tins to keep on my table, it works a treat!!
ReplyDeleteClever you salvaging that lovely table and making it look like new. A perfect place to enjoy your breakfast in the Summer.
Thinking of you!!
Hugs Lisax
Love what you have done with the table. I keep thinking there must be something useful or interesting to be done with pringles tubes... just haven't decided what it is yet!
ReplyDeleteGood job on that table - looks just like a bought one ! Can't imagine how difficult it must be for you. Thinking of you. Leandra.

ReplyDeleteHi lovely! Let the tears come if they need to - much better than bottling it up. Loving your stamps! You have done a great job with the table, it looks lovely. Thinking of you - catch up soon, much love S xxxx
ReplyDeleteSo good to hear from you and to see that you are keeping yourself busy and not drowning. Lots of love
ReplyDeletewell done on the table - love to see what folk do with things like this - I keep wanting to shabby chic some chairs its just getting the courage up to put that first coat on - meanwhile have done a pictur frame, a tray and a clock - maybe I may get a chair leg done by Christmas - lol
ReplyDeleteLoving the clutter here! that idea about fixing screw jars under shelving is great isnt it - I must get around to doing that one day.....
ReplyDeleteI did the same thing to my mum's white metal patio set that she no longer wanted, Black hammerite it's brilliant, made a cheapy set look real posh and expensive! Now mum's thinking she'd like it back! (no way....!!)
ReplyDeleteHope you like my freebie this week thought I'd add that it's best printed on landscape, I've only just added that on my blog! (Other wise you only get half the houses!) someone email me that they couldn't print it, I didn't think to say, I thought people would realise! ((Lyn)
