What’s on your Workdesk Wednesday


Nothing to see here work desk wise except a few more stitches added to a cloth I keep adding scraps of fabric to for no other reason than I can and it stops me nipping to see what there is to eat in the fridge and pantry.

I feel guilty joining in with What’s On your Workdesk Wednesday when I’ve nothing to show.  It’s like showing up for class without your homework.

But then I thought well it’s not just about the desk I’m sure. It’s about our friendships, the community Mrs D has built up over the years as much as anything for me. So I’m here despite not crafting.


We’ve had another wedding anniversary this week our 31st and 41 years together as a couple.  You can see us growing old together on my last blog post HERE

"Happy anniversary I've got you these flowers" said the wandering welder.

"Well”  Said I  “I've got you something to smooth all your cares away - a new iron"



Look at this idea I spotted the other day. I might give it a go.
I’ve had bits and pieces of glass in my garden for years and they’ve never cracked, so it should be ok.  I won’t be using the best Waterford crystal obviously.

hi
I’m sorry I’ve nothing more creative to show you this week but I do thank you for dropping by and I hope all of Mrs D’s deskhoppers are all well and happy.

Here’s to friendships.
See you next week 
Lynn

  4. Could not link up, but found a few who could. Congrats on another year to Celebrate your Anniversary... You did well for not having homework, lots of fun projects and I love all of them. I like adding scraps daily !!! I've a lot of glass to make these mushrooms. I've various sizes of saucers as flowers which were a LOT more work. Enjoy a great week, Stay Safe.

  6. Happy anniversary, Lynn! I love those two little figures, and the glass mushrooms are certainly something different! Never seen anything like that before! There's always something unusual on your posts and it's a treat to visit.

    Happy WOYWW,

  7. I don't care if you haven't got crafting to share as you always have interesting ideas to share!! The couple are fantastic and so like you and the Welder (Happy Anniversary btw!) and the glass mushrooms are genius, a great way to use up the junk glassware that ends up in the charity shop!!

  13. Hi Lynn, interesting idea with the glass. I was shocked though that you mentioned irons unless of course it's got something to do with crafting. Who cares whether you show us your desk or not there's plenty of other stuff on the go. Wishing you a very happy woyww, Angela Xnow13X

  15. For such a dapper chap, I can't think of a better present than an iron!
    Love those figures and what an ingenious use of knackered cut glass. I ran the staff canteen at the Edinburgh Crystal factory in Stourbridge for a while and each day there would be crates of seconds piled high for staff to help themselves too, if only I'd see that mushroom photo back then! xxx

  17. Lovely post, Lynne. And it doesn't matter if you haven't been crafting when you can entertain us with such nice photos and ideas - love the glass mushrooms. Our Edinburgh crystal is packed in boxes - nobody in the family wants it - but too good for the garden! I love the figures of you and your husband - I spotted the likeness immediately. Have a great week. Elizabeth x #23
