Welcome to the 1st edition of Lisa's
What's On Your Work-desk Wednesday
These weekly posts will let you in on a rarely seen world of crafting madness...my work areas!!
Before I get to the photos, I need to explain that I'm disabled and spend most of my time in my recliner with my laptop on my little lap-desk and have tons of crafty supplies strewn all around me!! Most of the time you're not going to see a work "desk", but more of a work "lap-desk"!!
Let's get to the photos, shall we?
This mess is my lap-desk covered in card-making supplies.
Here's my actual working area (on top of my laptop's keyboard) and you can see the 2 cards I was working on and some of the supplies.
To the right of my work area (aka keyboard) are my stamping supplies, a couple paper punches, some ribbon, and a few other items.
To the right of those supplies, is the arm of our other recliner covered in even more supplies!! You can kind of make out some ribbon, a punch, a stack of acrylic stamps, some paper, a bag of wooden buttons and more!!
I'm linking up this post to Stamping Ground, the original host of WOYWW!!
Even though these next photos aren't from my actual work area, I just have to share them with you!!
In the past, I've mentioned my lace supplier in this post and my ephemera supplier in this one. I just have to show you photos of my recent orders from them!! These two woman are incredible!!
VINTAGE EPHEMERA
When ordering from Sarah this time, I requested a special order of just vintage book pages and vintage sheet music. I payed $15 for the paper plus $5 shipping. In return I received over 2lbs of vintage ephemera!! This stuff is amazing!!
This is my entire order!! You can't really tell by this photo, but each of those is a small stack of pages!!
Here's a good close up of the paper I received!!
If you ever use ephemera in your crafts, you've got to visit Sarah's shop on eBay, Stuff in the Attic!! If you don't see exactly what you're looking for, just send her an e-mail and she'll put it together for you!!
LACE
Now to show you the huge amount of lace I ordered!! I paid a mere $25 plus S&H for a whole pound of lace!! That may not sound like a lot, but we're talking about 150 yards or more of lace!! Check it out...
This box is about 18"x15"x6" and it's overflowing with lace from this one order!!
This is a side view of how full the box is!!
You absolutely cannot beat Crystal's prices for lace, especially when buying her assortments!! Visit her Artfire Shop to see her listings or you can e-mail Crystal for a custom order.
If you order from Sarah or Crystal, please tell them I sent you!!
Thanks for reading!! Until next time...

Welcome to WOYWW! Well it's difficult enough using stuff without being confined to the chair...even surrounded by what I need, as soon as I get going I realise I have to fetch something else - hope you have a willing gopher! Like the colour of cards you're working on.
ReplyDeleteYou've linked twice over at WOYWW and as the first link is a bit more of an advert, I'm going to take it out and leave the second one.
I'm sure you are very organized with getting your needed supplies ready before you began any project and I like how you made your space work for you.
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty lace and those vintage pages look faboulous. Have fun enjoying your new goodies.
Hello and welcome you have some lovely goodies. Happy New year. Anne x
ReplyDeleteWelcome to WOYWW. I am in awe at what you manage to create just from a recliner lap desk. Have a great time finding a place for all that lace and the other ephemera. Maggie #72
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely making the most of your workspace! Have fun with all your fun ephemera and lace. :)
