WOYWW #198

Welcome. It's very early here, couldn't get back to dreamville so will post my What's On Your Workdesk photos. If you want to join in Julia at the STAMPING GROUND has all the info on her side post.
Amazing what you'll see and learn.

By my standards, my desk was not so interesting...it was totally cleared off. So wanted to share this item.
In another life it was a spice rack which my sister found at a garage sale. All the spices I tried were to small to see or to large to fit.  So when something doesn't work where it belongs it gets New Life in my craft area if there is room.
 It slides open more space, so I used it for my "Glimmers & Glams!" liquid inks and on & on.

It will set to the right of the little Peter Rabbit book you see there. And hopefully I've plans for "CREATING" the rest of this week. Had a lot of interuptions this week and we are having drifting of snow AGAIN, so won't be going out.

Have a Happy WOYWW, thanks for to all who left comments last week. I'm off to visit til daylight.

Love your new crafty storage. Great idea.
My little letters are plastic but I'm sure if you won them you would still find a use for them :-) Good luck.

What a brilliant storage solution far better off in the craft room rather than the kitchen. I don't cook that much anymore so it would be a huge waste in my kitchen LOL

I can send you some lovely sunshine if you want. Down here in Sunny Melbourne Australia it is really beautiful ATM.

Happy WOYWW

Hope you get springtime there soon. Maybe we should all go to Eliza's, huh! I'm hoping our snow will melt and our sub zero temps will soon be replaced by 50s and 60s. We can hope. Nice storage. I need to work on organizing storage.

Girl, how can I send you sunshine when he have so very little of that here! We have had rain, wind, cold temps, more rain then maybe a day of sun then back to rain, wind and snow. Our whole winter has been like that and I am so ready for Spring! Hope you have better weather coming soon!

Oh I love a little re-cycled spice rack - I have 2 little ones in my craft rooms - they look fab with a splash of chalk paint on them.x Jo

A spice rack is a great idea for holding bottles and such, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by my "Easter Box" post. It is always good to have you come drop in for a visit.
Have a great rest of the week.

Well, what a great idea (and awesome bit of recycling too) to use that spice rack for the little bottles of stuff!! ingenious crafting there :)
I don't think our snow has been as bad as yours, but it's Spring, for goodness sake, you'd have thought the temperatures would be rising by now....sigh. I haven't sown any seeds yet..just too cold in my greenhouse.... :( ah well, it'll happen when it's ready!

I love seeing things having their useage changed because they do not fit for what they should be and this is an excellent example. What wonderful storage looks like it fits right on in there for you
Have a wonderful WOYWW

Hullo there Sylvia,
A great creative space today, and I have a wooden spice rack about your two joined together and they are hanging on my cupboard door my father who made it mounted it for me - it was their spice crack but he changed it to lay down design hence my gaining a really bonus!!

I have been told by folk Joanna Sheen that glimmer mists and such sprays should be stored lying down not upright to help prevent clogging of tops.

So I use it for my embossing powders and such like.
Thanks so much for popping over and for sharing ~ happy WOYWW! Shaz in Oz.x #25

Dorthe said...

Thankyou so much Sylvia, for your sweet and kind comment on my blog,- it warms so much, here in all the show we also have!
The spice rack is a wonderful piece to add all your glitter and such inside, a great idea, I could use something like that,too- as it all is on top of each other on a shelp and in a plastic box. Wish you a great day inside your cosy studio. -Dorthe

Dorthe said...

I ofcourse didn`t mean SHOW--but SNOW hehe.

Robin said...

I have those! And you are right! It would be better in the craft room....off to move spices back to cabinet...
