What's on my workdesk today ...

Hello desk hoppers
Last week I started a filofax type inspiration, whatever you want to call it, book after seeing my Goddaughter's index card college work planner.
 Well here's how it's looking.  I'm obsessed with it and adding
photographs, ideas and notes constantly and lots of information on artists and makers who influence and inspire me.
  It's very tactile and feels good to hold and to flick through.
 
On the other corner of the desk I'm messing with fabrics and a little tin
Hope you all have a great creative week

  1. Hello Lynn. Love your little book. Reminds me of all the books I had to make to monitor the work when I did my C&G in design and embroidery!! Even had to make one all about sewing needles, their types and uses!
    Have fun with the fabric and tin.
    Take care. God bless.

  2. Oooh, lots of lovely things on your blog this week! Love all those ribbons and the sewing stuff in the last pic. Lurrrvly :-) That planner looks as if you're having fun enclosing stuff - at what point does it officially become 'full'? Do you visit Sandy (EatWriteDreamStitch)? She's a mad keen planner maker, I've lost count of how many she has on the go!

  3. Hi Lynn, great post - I love your ribbons, they are superb! Your book is great too, I have something like this that I keep meaning to start working on again, for the life of me I cannot remember what it is called though. Thanks for sharing your desk with us. Lyns #26 xx

  7. I love the little inspiration book. I have a folder that I started many years ago but it has been neglected for a long time now ... this has inspired me to revisit it.

  12. I love how a notebook can put all the puzzle pieces together! I was thinking this morning that I need to gather some of mine and have a paper play while making them useful like this! Happy Wednesday! Sandy Leigh #49

  13. That's such a good idea and a mini work of art in itself. I don't get the Pinterest thing, I like my inspiration to be 3D! xxx
