It's Wednesday again and time for another WOYWW - what's on your workdesk Wednesday 141.
I've been spending some time recently sorting and re-organising my craft stuff (I always seem to be doing this).
At the beginning of the year one of my crafting resolutions was to put inserts into cards and bag and label them every week rather than leave the job till it piles up. What usually happens is that I make cards, put them aside and then suddenly realise that I need to put inserts in and label and bag them ... and it's such a chore to do loads all at once.
I've always kept some ready folded general inserts in a box which helps because they are easily accessible, but Christmas inserts were in boxes laid flat, so it was a real chore to get them out, hence the cards piling up without getting done. And I always kept all my cello bags of various sizes in one box and had to rummage through them whenever I needed them.
So I spent some time folding Christmas inserts and also making labelled dividers. I had lots of cello bags already labelled - I've now sorted them and they are all divided in their categories so that it will be easier to find what I want.
I hoping that all this is going to help me keep on top of finishing off the cards and having them completely bagged and ready - we'll see.
So here is the general picture (you'll see a few new crafty bits on the left hand side - a girl's gotta have some treats!):
And when I'm not using them they can go back into the cupboard:
I've recently sorted and tidied this cupboard - my next job is to label everything properly.
Once I've linked this I'm off to have a nosey at other workdesks and see what everyone's up to.
A big THANK YOU to all those who visit and leave comments - much appreciated.






Oooh how wonderfully organised, Hazel! It delights my heart to see it all!! And don't you just love Really Useful Boxes? I've just started collecting them and they are awesome.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my workdesk this week. Glad you like my butterfies and Valentine card. I am not so well again today, after a few quite good days when I could get some creative stuff done, so resting and hoping for better tomorrow!
Happy WOYWW, Shoshi #35

It all looks so lovely and organised so I'm sure it will make your chore so much easier - unless of course you don't want to take them out of their lovely boxes and mess the place up!

WOW! Wonderful bit of organising there! Kim
ReplyDeleteWow! How organised are you - and you do inserts as well. Afraid all the fun for me is in making the art work then I lose patience so hardly ever do an insert.
