I'm not a big fan of New Year - I save all my excitement for Christmas but I do enjoy the feeling of a fresh start and an opportunity to start new ventures and projects. 

I don't do 'resolutions' - I do 'hopes' and so far the 'hope list' is, well.. fairly hopeful!

Lots of wonderful wishes to you all.

Here it is - the workdesk - Imogen has taken to sitting on all pizza boxes that arrive now!

How about this!  A genuine photo taken this Wednesday morning of my workdesk - far too early for me to craft but Darcy is rethinking - that piece of black cardstock could actually still be useful!

.. tree decorated with favourite ornament in place -

(oh look it's a cat - what a surprise!)

...and I've started wrapping .. quite a few more to go.

Welcome.  First of all....a confession!!  I tend to photograph my workdesk at the weekend and not on a Wednesday - shock - horror!!  Hence why last Wednesday it did not have snow - teach me for trying to be organised and wanting to get ahead of myself!   But to make up for my guilt here it is in the snow.  It changed the lighting completely and definitely the temperature!

As you can see Darcy is in place as she should be.  I actually think my workdesk looks a bit muddly - I was in the middle of making a Christmas garland and a journal. 

Remember to check out Chicken Soup for their 12 days of Christmas inspiration.  And, obviously not forgetting the lady in charge of desk hopping - Julia. Oh and yes.. please visit Shimelle very soon as I will be doing a guest post there - SO exciting!!

Have a great week everyone.

Inspired by Shimelle's Christmas Tag Garland I got out my scrap box, a few punches and other bits and bobs.  Within a very short time I put together a simple garland - two in fact and now contemplating a third!

So I relented - a litter tray indoors and I now have one very contented cat!

Have a good week everyone and don't forget Julia is the lady responsible for this Wednesday lark - it's fab!
