WOYWW #186


Well Christmas is done and dusted bring on the New Year for a fresh start to a new year of crafting possibilities.. 
I have learnt so much this year and have had such a good time learning new things and discovering the world of blogging (new friends),  youtube crafting and pinterest.. The information out there is mind blowing... Cant wait to see what I find out and learn next year...
So my desk is tidy this week nothing going on but am going to break out the new stamp set in the next few days..
So here is my desk.....



For those of you who wanted to see the exploding box that has been on my desk in pieces, here is the finished item.. Link Here for more photos.....



Caught up with 3 of my long time friends last Friday and we went to my favourite place for lunch and stayed chatting for afternoon tea.. A local Chocolate factory..  It was a wonderful day and the food was yummy..


So hope you have a great peek around desks and make sure that you link up with Julia's Stamping Ground this WOYWW? 

Have a great 2013...
Sandy :)

  4. Horrah, at last I have found someone who does an exploding box like me with all the inside facing the SAME way instead of having to turn the box round! It is lovely. Have a happy New Year BJ#15

  16. Aw, geez, Sandy, why'd you have to go and do that when I'm whining about how stuffed and piggy-wiggy I am and have been. Groan. That lovely tea has me drooling!

    And once I could focus my eyes, your exploding box is fabulous, too!!

    All the best in the new year! Go mess up that desk! Thanks for coming by the Playhouse! Darnell #53

    Happy WOYWW and may the New Year bring you lots of happiness, good health and blessings.

  19. I was going to comment on the gorgeous exploding box and then saw the cakes... LOL Glad you had a lovely time with old friends and your desk is the tidiest I have seen so far! Annette #19

  20. Look at that table filled with yummy-ness! I have been on such a sweet kick this past week. It all looks good! Your desk is so naked! I hope you have gotten out your new goodies to play. The exploding box is really neat. I've made one before but we didn't decorate the inside so neatly. Or actually at all, just the pattern papers. Such a neat idea to embellish them up!

  21. Ok that is it I have to come and see you really soon and go to lunch at the Chocolate Factory and then the Kaiser Factory or should I do Kaiser first? Those scones look so yummie and I can't make them. I left a comment on the post regarding your beautiful perfect box what a treasure. Thanks for mentioning my flowers they do match perfectly.

    Belated Christmas Greetings and Happy New Year
