WOYWW #336


Good day to you, thanks for stopping by.  Julia at the STAMPING GROUND   is hosting another fun Whats On Your Workdesk Wednesday.   Visit, she explains it, partake, or just click on the name's playing along and see what they are up to.

My desk has an accumulation of things from a cupboard I moved into the storage room. I think I was going to make pincushions out of the little shoes.   My storage area is taking shape..But taking a 2 day break, have other things to catch up on.

My adventure of taking excess Christmas to the resale shop was fun. 3 adorable shops in a row. I didn't bring home more than I took but...with the carpet redo I've kept my eye out for my new accent color of Aqua.  Was hard to get a good color on this carpet. This looks like a faded blue, but it tends to be more of an aqua  And they had just what I needed. 
To the left a NEW Queen size reversible bed spread with navy..$30.  .2 pillows aqua...$2 and the new afagan $10 in navy and aqua
 Below is the fabric I will be making toppers with $8 on sale...my sofa is navy and my living room carpet is white and walls are a marble pattern of whites. Hoping to do a small Christmas tree either in the golds or making aqua balls from the string technique with a balloon.
Temps are in the 60's yet and sunny today. Storms and terrible winds forecast  for tomorrow.
A nice steady rain would be good, so dry and so dusty here in the country. 
Have a wonderful day, Always enjoy your comments.

I didn't even see the table top, lol, my eyes immediately went to the fabulous storage shelves in the background. All those ink pads etc so beautifully organised! Love that.

Love the idea with the shoes, I want some tiny shoes to use for jewellery rolls (don't know what else to call them).
You got some great purchases there - I love aqua so all your purchases are 'right up my street' as we say here.

I love the color of your carpet. It reminds me of what we took out of this house when we put down hardwood. Allergies are so much better now.

Yes, I like aqua too. I have my bedroom in that color. I painted the door and an old blanket chest in that color, to go with the duvet cover. Please show us when you've finished.
Have a great week,

Aqua isn't a colour I've used much in the past, but as I look around, I find I've done aqua cards, am wearing aqua top...It is going into Summer over here in Australia, so cool colours are refreshing!

Oooooh, aqua has always been one of my favorite colors. I bet it all looks beautiful with your great finds.

The aqua theme is fun - I love that colour! And well done for not bringing back more than you went with! Those little shoes look like fun, I bet you'll enjoy decorating those :-)
