Once more the journey into the recesses of my crafty space is unwinding ! Thanks, as ever, go to Julia on the Stamping Ground Blog for asking us to show our workdesks and this is for WOYWW 62. This view was taken of my immediate working area of around 1 square foot !! Actually most of the items remain of what I used to make the postcard in my previous post. Yes, that's an upended bottle of glossy accents in the background (nearing the end of the bottle so need to keep the remaining liquid at the tip).
I bought this fab revolving storage unit for my Distress inkpads and foam. It holds all 36 colours and makes selection of colours very easy. I have labelled the end of each pad with a white label and coloured it with the appropriate colour. That reminds me....must use that peacock feather !!!
Finally a shot of my little tray of Cosmic Shimmer micas. I often use these in my own made mica sprays.
That's it folks, enjoy mooching and as always I will spend a little time looking at yours over the next few days (too many to do in one go).

Love the distress ink storage - very handy, and what a great pile of cosmic shimmers you have there! I only have six and now feel that I need more! Love the postcard too.
ReplyDeleteGreat creative space as always, I love that storage, I have seen that somewhere else and was tempted...hmmm roll on pay-day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing

Ooh sid! I love your revolver.
ReplyDeleteYour desk looks at first glance as if you're concocting potions and lotions - all those bottles! The tankard is well employed. Your CS collection is pretty - am a sucker for grouped colours, so imagine how green eyed I am for that storage tower, great idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great desk, I could use one of those inkpad spinners!
ReplyDeleteI have an upside down bottle of glossy accents only all the glue is now in the lid and stuck.....
Loving the Distress Ink storage. I thought I had a lost of CS Micas powders, but you have got to be nearing a full set by now!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are really getting organized, Sid. I like that spinning gizmo. Now if I just had 36 ink pads, I might find room for it.
ReplyDeleteWhat really intrigued me was the shot of the glimmer mists. I recently bought a bunch (called polished pearls) and learned I need a solution that they no longer sell (where I shop), so now I have to figure out how to use them. They apparently don't have a binder in them. What a rip. I hope yours are more user friendly. Happy WOYWW.
Oh Sid, it's not too bad! I love your inks, the storage too is brill, have to get me some more of those inks! have a great woyww!
ReplyDelete((Lyn))
Morning Sid, wow you weren't kidding about loving full sets of stuff. Love that ink pad storage, and drooling over the pots of mica. Hope to see you back in Middlesbrough soon.
ReplyDeleteGet you with your shimmer and sparkle.. i'm sooo jelious, i am loving the ink storage.. been tempted myself by the circular one!
ReplyDeletehappy woyww Sid

Great desk Sid! Love your distress ink storage! So organised!
ReplyDeleteooh am coveting that lovely storage! but not as much as i'm coveting all those lovely cosmic shimmer powders!!
ReplyDeleteFab desk Sid and I'm glad you love your inkpad storage like I do too. I've even managed to fit other inkpads onto mine!! x
ReplyDeleteGood morning Sid, love your distress ink storage i"m going to invest in one of those. My you have a lot of cosmic shimmers. Lots going on cannot wait to see.
ReplyDeleteBig Hugs Jo XXX
Just a few Cosmic shimmers eh Sid! ;-) I'd love one of those revolving storage thingys but got nowhere to put it, well nowhere in easy reach which would be the point. I've got a peacock feather but it seems such a shame to use it, 'cos it's lovely and then I won't have it any more :-/
ReplyDeleteAnne xx
wow Sid such organisation. Love the sponge and distress ink holder, just fab and what a selection of colours in your cosmic shimmers
ReplyDeletethanks for the snoop
Kate xx
Fab storage for the inks, Sid - I have my distress inks stacked in two ever growing towers and the foam in a box beside them!!! Love all the cosmic shimmers too. And I'm laughing at your description of the foot square space left for crafting!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Wednesday!

ReplyDeleteSid, thank you for stopping by my blog. I like very much the way your work space looks like!
ReplyDeletewow im jealous of all of your goodies!!! i love your creations..great work
ReplyDeleteThis revolving storage unit is really helpful for your working area. Placing your foams and inkpad can be easier; you just need to sort them by colors. Since it is revolving, you can easily select the color that you will need although there are 36 colors to choose from.
ReplyDeleteMax Champion
Wow, that's a splendid transformation! A neat workplace is truly one of the things that fuels creative juices to flow. Revolving storage units like that one doesn't only save space, but they also organize your stuff the way you want to. Kudos for a neat and organized workplace! :)
