WOYWW 190 -- New Stuff!

I'd like to welcome my latest followers Wilson Tom and Sweetie!  Thank you so much for joining in the fun.  I know there are lots of blogs out there and the fact that you've chosen to follow me really makes me smile!  Thank you!!!

 Welcome to  WOYWW! What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday is hosted by Julia from Stamping Ground.   If you want some inspiration - on projects or how to organize your crafting supplies (or not) then go on over.  It's so much fun.  And who knows, maybe you'll join in!

 You know that saying "Out of sight out of mind"?  Well, I'm finding that to be so true with my crafting supplies.  I've done such a good job of "hiding" what I have that I find myself needing to buy more!  
Sari silk ribbon, paper, plastic shower curtain
(so I can really make a mess), ribbons, Distress Ink, rubber mat,
tool that you use to make faux sewing on paper, some embossing folders
There's some new things on my desk.  I found a place where I can buy sari silk ribbon!  Yay.  There's a new store in town called "The Perch Paperie."  Later in the week I'll write a post about a class I took there on Monday.
I have a new member of the family.  I've been battling with the decision to get Katie a little playmate.  I wondered if it was the right thing to do or not.  Katie and I went to the Shelter a few weeks ago and met Muffin.  She's a four year old poodle and she's a little cutie pie!  She's wearing the collar as she has some issues with a sore under her chin.  We are hoping that it's not allergies.....

 Like always, I'll visit those that end in the same number as me and those that leave a comment here (please leave your number).  I hope you all are having a crafty week!

 Peace,
Kay

    I had to giggle at the cone, I saw on Pinterest a sign outside a Vet's office that read : "It's all fun and games until someone brings out the cone." lol Poor baby! I found a real art store ( vrs. a store like Michaels ) called The Starving Artist....it's going to be big trouble for me! HA! Looks like you had a fun shopping day! Thanks for visiting my desk, waving hi from the hills of North Carolina ♥

    I love the new family member, Kay, what a cutie.
    That new stash is looking very interesting too. Is that some basic grey paper I spy and what are you going to use the shower curtain for??
    Happy WOYWW

    Now are you sure you needed all that lovely stuff on your desk?!! Only joking - of course you did and I'm sure you'll have fun using it! I can always find a craft shop in a new town - hubby says he's sure I look them up first (well, maybe occasionally!) Poor little dog with that cone - hope it's off soon! Chris@ 86

    I had to have a giggle at the shower curtain. Is that so if you have a showing you can just roll up all the crafty goodness and hide it under the bed!
    How goes the house sale? Don't know what the market is like where you live...maybe it takes a while...
    The world is so different from when houses flew off the shelf in hours. I still remember when we sold our townhouse a couple of hours after we listed! Those days are gone now, I think.

    You have lots of fun things out to play with...happy crafting!

    Oh Kay, Muffin is adorable! Hope her little problem soon disappears, it must be horrible wearing a cone but she does look cute in it!

    Love all your new stash, intrigued as to what you will do with the sari ribbon...... I hid the worst bit of my failed project so it cannot be seen which is why you couldn't find it...... Thanks for your visit. Hugs, Anne x #57

    OH yes, you are so right about the "out of sight, out of mind"/art supply theory . . .

    Whats sad about the out of site out of mind thing is when I go and buy it because I have needed it for a while I come home open and start using the new and find the old has come back. Sweet baby you adopted! I want a dog but DH says no! Hope her neck gets better soon. Have a great week. Vickie #35
