Welcome everyone! Hope your day is all Sunshine. It's Ms Julia's "What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday" and you can find out all the details on her blog
STAMPING GROUND.
Sorry this picture is not so clear, but this was the "PERFECT" button for a card I was making and it fell apart. I was stunned. It looks like it was made from recycled plastic pieces. Had a very hard time finding anything of the same size and color to use on my project. I hope this isn't a norm.
My desk has bits and pieces, lots of distressing colors, the blue pan is very old has a pouring spout on one end and nice to refill the button jar. I was cutting some floral from old lace, and hoping ideas would pop into my head for the ATC exchange coming up on WOYWW.

I'm truly in need of a day shopping all by myself!!! But our weather has been rain, ice, wind and 10 inches of snow since Sunday, a day of melting on Monday and Tues more blowing snow and ice on roadways. Just
cold today with lots of drifts and a high forcast of 40's Thurs/Fri.. Whoopie!!!
Thanks to all who had time to stop by and comment last week. Enjoy your week and I'm off to peep about.

suppose to be in the 60's here so come shop with me...I could use a break. Did you get those buttons in a bag at Dollar Tree? I bought some there that were really cute but they had the same problem of crumbling when I tried to use them. Have a great week. Vickie
I didn't store buy them, but maybe someone did. I usually get my buttons at garage sales, etc. Have jars of them but this was a surprise.
Great desk.Hope you can get out soon.We've had a heat wave here(late Summer), and just as debilitating and limiting.Hope Spring comes to you soon.

Love the idea of your blue button tray....I just use an old tea towel to put my buttons out onto when searching.

Oh how I would love your sort through all your buttons!! The broken one was a bit disappointing. My problem is always being one short when I need a matching set for a little project! x Jo
Oh no! Sorry to see the button broke apart. Awful weather to have to get out in. Hope it clears up and dries up soon so you can go shopping in better conditions.
Sorry to hear about you button. That can be really upsetting. Hopefully you can get out soon and do some shopping. #114
Oh Sylvia, no snow here, but very very cold and windy..but there are signs of spring, but I can't wait to wave goodbye to draughts and chills! The
The buttoin problem is amazing, surely a problem in manufacture rather than ageing or daylight - I hope! But mostly just plain annoying when it's the perfect one for the card - argh!!
70s for us by Friday, though it doesn't feel like it could make it right now. Brrr. Bummers on the button. Just means you were meant to keep digging for the true 'right' embelli. :-) Kelly #126
Love your desk, lots of exciting things!
Happy WOYWW!

HELLO Sylvia. I was luck enough to receive one of your amazing Valentine tags from Kim's tag swap. Just wanted to say thanks. It is beautiful. Becs
Hi Sylvia! How horrible about your button! You have the best space to work on! Lots of flat desk space! It has warmed up to the low 70's here in Central California. Come on, and we will have a wonderful time shopping!
Hugs!

Hi Sylvia! I was so tickled to see your comment on my blog about making those adorable chicks years ago! I am so glad that you have now re-found that pattern. They are soooo darn adorable, aren't they? :)
