WOYWW #694

Welcome to our Wednesday sharing of the desks.  It's all HERE to see more.
I've a TOTAL mess with the crafting area, which is going to be cut in 1/2 also. Way to many projects, started and not finished. 

Wanting time for working with gel press, Love the variety it can do for papers.  

I want to make some WINTER curtains as I found some great fabric to keep out the drafts.  
Jan or anyone with quick tips for the top/hanging  I'd love ideas.  I now have ring hooks on a rod that have a clip to attach to the curtain. I like to have lots of light in daytime so will have to be drawn off to a side in daytime.  



What a last week, 2 of us doing SPRING cleaning. We were gone Tuesday/Wednesday  bought a carpet shampooer. Small home so moved things to 1/2 room/let dry and moved it back to finish up. (he did all the work with the new machine and helped with ALL of this.  We also found 2 new recliners available, (most have a 3 month to 1 year delivery date) but we brought one home and will pick the other up Friday.

 Working with tomatoes, making juice and roasted for the freezer. I will do windows when he goes to the field which could be next week and work on clothes closets/drawers. 

I decorated for Fall/Halloween, sorted thru totes, had items ready to sell and she backed out. Trying to 1/2 all the holiday decor.  And now our hi way system  and blacktop roads in this area are being torn up/resurfacing has started so it's a mess out and about with one lane traffic a lead car or stop lights/ detours/big equipment etc.  
Grapevine tree, I've had for a long time. I like the little lights in the evening. 
My laundry room, a collection of Raggedy Ann's / crocheted pot holders again I like the little lights. From kitchen, a narrow space with pantry/washer/dryer leads to family room. 



Wishing you all the best.  I did spend time watching the events with Queen Elizabeth. What a remarkable lady.

Good grief gal, you need a holiday! Enjoy your new recliners, it’s a score that they were available. We waited six months for furniture ordered before last Christmas. Amazing isn’t it. I love that you decorate for fall, are you sure you want to halve your stash of decorations? I get it, but it feels a bit too practical for my hoarder heart!! Don’t fret about the number of projects on the go…they’ll come to finish as you get to them. I recommend a week off from cleaning now!

Love your vine tree, I have not seen one before. Sounds like you have been very busy, it’s hard getting rid of stuff that you have had for so long. Roadworks cause such a disturbance, bit I guess necessary . Happy WOYWW. Angela #18

Love your Fall decorating and the new fabric for the curtains, that looks lovely and thick, sure to keep the droughts out. Do you have header tape for the top of the curtain? I’m not sure what you mean about the clips, sorry. Just make sure you sew on a big table so the weight of the fabric doesn’t pull the needle.

I won’t be around for the next couple of weeks, see you soon!
