The First WOYWW!? of 2025! Hope you all had a lovely Holiday Time, and scoffed yourselves silly! Not much going on here, on my work space apart from the usual mess, but I have been busy doing other 'things' The little card above was a quickie New Years card without the words on it... and below is...
...my craftroom as it is now...and showing off my new cover for my swivel chair...and with a trip to The Works, a few half price things popped into my shopping trolly...(Not that I needed any papers) All ready for next Christmas's Christmas cards...unless I
can find the cards I made last year...I mean, the year before... which
totally disappeared.
One thing I will try to do this year is Use UP WHAT I HAVE! As I have at least 10 or 12 large Ring Binders, plus smaller ones, all filled to bursting with downloaded or magazine papers..
I also bought a new smaller tree, as my old one has started breaking up where the branches are joined onto the stem. I'm not sure what I'll be doing with that little tree, it's a bit scrawny! But at least it'll be easier to get down from the attic! That's it from me...late as always. Happy WOYWW And...Happy New Year too. Thank you for stopping by!
Happy New Year! well done on snagging bargains, even if you didn't need them! the best kind.... your craftroom looks great, really tidy. Helen#6
ReplyDeleteYes, it's the 'tidiest' it's been in ages! At least I can get to my computer...just!
DeleteHappy New Year. Your little tree will be fab once trimmed and so good to make it easier for getting down. I'm planning to use up some of my stash again this year - hoping I can resist topping up when I see a gap! x x Jo 🌈
ReplyDeleteI have no gaps! but still stuff keeps turning up!
DeleteHappy New Year! Hope it’s healthy and happy and full of great crafting. I do like the Works, always end up getting something from there, it’s just too tempting!

So tempting! there were a few more things I picked up....and a few more I put back...
DeleteMagazine pages are too thin for me although sometimes you get a free book of papers which are better. I haven’t bought a magazine for ages, they have got so expensive and apart from the free stuff and I don’t think they are always worth the price. I have a huge stack of 12 x 12 which need using up, last year I used up quite a lot of 6 x 6, but still stacks left. Your craft room looks as narrow as as mine is and is just as crammed 🤣🤣. Happy New Year and happy WOYWW. Angela #9
ReplyDeleteI don't actually use the magazine papers for that very reason, I save them to the computer or scan them in and then print them off on better paper...I can go through my many ring binders find what I want and then go find it on the computer...most of them are named and numbered so I know where to find them. The scraps go back in the ringbinder with the matching mag papers.
DeleteHappy New Year Lyn - may it bring health and lots of crafty opportunities. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Sarah, looking forward to loads more WOYW wednesdays!
DeleteGreat to see what you've been up to. You're not the only one that makes cards in advance and then can't find them Hee! Hee! I have to say I boughjt some of the papers from the Works, they look really useful and cheap too. Happy woyww New Year. Hugs Angela x7x
ReplyDeleteI know! where are they I ask myself!!?? I don't think I even took pictures of them, because they're not on my blog! well, I think one is...but I sent that to Julia's Stamping Ground last year...I think!
