WOYWW #725

Welcome to another WOYWW.  Some good changes in our weather, with limited Winds and SUNSHINE. Nice to be outdoors but a little to chilly to be doing any clean up. 
It's the day we share our workspace and closing in on a soon to be Anniversary.  Ms Julia our hostess
has the fun way HERE ON HER BLOG to join in. 


My desks today:

Going thru old photo albums I purchased at a Vintage store sometime back. Some new challenges with "Ladies" coming up. 
Stopped at my Thrift shop and purchased 4 rolls of beautiful lace. 50 cents each, 1st thoughts Ribbon Dolls, but maybe better for backgrounds.  Yet to be decided I guess.  
And part of a clean up from stamps I've been using and not cleaning.  I don't have access to water on our lower level, so it's less up and down steps by taking up later !  

Well thanks for the comments and fun last week. May you and yours enjoy a great week ahead.

Name has been gone again !   
But it's still Sylvia/LittleTreasures

Thought you'd found one of my photo albums for a moment there!! I have been scanning all my photos as I clear the house. Lots of albums like those.
So pleased your weather has taken a turn for the better, we have the same, looks pretty but only behind the window!
have a good week and take care

I’m so glad you saved those photos for reuse, I get a bit sad seeing people’s albums sitting in a thrift store, all those life stories…at least you give them a second chance. Love the lace too, those will be useful for a project or two!
Hugs LLJ 6 xx

Its so nice to visit this morning! I love that pretty lace! I never seem to find anything when I visit my local thrift store. It always feels like all the good stuff got pulled out before I got there! Maybe I should go more often! Have a good rest of the week.

You have found some great bargains, the lace looks lovely and the photo album intriguing. We are having a lovely day here - as long as the sun doesn’t go behind a cloud! I have your address - if it’s the same as the last swap. Would you like to swap with me? Happy WOYWW. Angela #16

Beautiful selection of stamps Sylvia, it makes me swoon to see wood mounts in use, I do love ‘em so! I work on the same floor as a water supply and still don’t clean up at the end of immediate use! I think at 50c a roll it would have been crazy not to buy the lace, it’s gorgeous isn’t it..I have no idea what I’d do with it, so I look forward to seeing it appear in your art works!
Glad to read of overdue sunshine, let’s hope it will bring some stability in the weather! Hope you got a good sleep!

Hi Sylvia, long time no blog, so I thought I'd start at the top and work my way down, a bit late but who knows!? Ths week I've been snooping around a crafty charity shop near me and got loads of die cuts...but my fave bargin was a Penny Black stamp for 20p! Have a Great WOYWW ((Lyn)) #22

Elizabeth said...

Hi Sylvia, we've had strong winds recently or as they say here it's been blowing a real hooley! It's lovely now it's gone. You've been really busy. I think the person who originally saved all those photos would be pleased to know they are still valued all these years later. Have a lovely week. Elizabeth x #24

Great find on the lace. You'll put them to good use, I'm sure. I look forward to seeing what you come up with. Cretive Blessings! Kelly #21
