My workdesk always looks kind of mucky, I think.
I have this nice new white studio, and this old, stained cutting mat on top of my desk.
HOWEVER, the mat is such a great tool, that I just cannot give it up.
I originally got it when I was making quilts obssessively (much the same way as I do paper art now)
What you see is Halloween fixin's that I got at Mikey's for 90% off. I still have 6 Halloween inchies to swap...some of us just won't let go.
And you see a domino book I am making of teeny-tiny little Queens.
And a Christmas decoration for use in 36 Christmas inchies I need to get started on.
You can see lots more, less mucky workdesks at
C'mon, show us yours!
Always good to have something to obsess over! Mine is inky too, I like it that way, it looks used and loved!
ReplyDeleteMine get so well abused I have no choice but to replace it periodically - wouldn't be without it though! At least if you are obsessed about something you give it a good run before moving on and then you have that skill forever (well that is my excuse and I am sticking to it.....)
ReplyDeleteLooks ok to me - well used, well love, and useful!! Happy WOYWW. Helen , 12

Like the look of that grid stamp although I cant quite make out what it is - is it a house? also love the domino book didnt realise what that was until I read - my eye sight must be going! Thanks for sharing and have a great week. Sunshine Girl – No 34
ReplyDeleteI have two mats - one new and one that's a disgrace but works fine - so don't feel guilty. I think your place looks very crafty, creative and busy - like a good desk should! Thanks for sharing today, Sarah at 2.
ReplyDeleteI have a large green mat that continues to do a great job. It has seen me through many an inky, crafty obsession.
ReplyDeleteJust doing a quick pass through today ... I am going to get everyone visited!!! No a mucky desk ... a hive a creativity.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW

For being number 1 this week, I'm awfully late visiting. I'm so sorry I'm late, but, after a computer crash I had to stop by and get a bit of inspiration from your desk. I use a craft mat that I can clean with soap and water. I know what you mean by ugly, because the cover on my work table is looking really bad.
