Swinging to the left is my latest storage beauty which I got a couple of weeks ago. The castors have broken-yes honestly so I'm not going to get replacements although I'm sure I would get them from Storage 4 Crafts as they were very quick to send me a replacement section when the delivery arrived minus the central section. Have been online and found some heavy duty ones-just not ordered them.
You can see my desk now and I'm showing off. Biggest little sis is getting married next year and-like you do- I suggested Save the Date cards. She is not fussy-just said you do them how you like and they'll be great when I asked if she had anything in mind. AAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH. Not what I like to hear but they're made. On the desk is my sample for my file-a reject. Why? I got carried away and stamped some tiny tags using a new SU set-and got ink on my fingers and -------.
Close up you can see the ink. Thanks to Ikky I could position my little Cuttlebug folder exactly where I wanted it with no lines either. Printed them first and final touch a glamour dust highlight on the little hearts. Spent ages packing them so she will say AAAAhhh when she opens her parcel. Showed them to DH and that's just what he said which is why I love him.
Off to the hospital so he can have a heart monitor fitted for 24hrs. so will hopefully have a toot at your desks when we get back. It's a busy life this retirement.

I thought I was the only person playing this week. Glad to see I'm not alone (grin). Hope your hubby is going to be OK. Will he have to stay in hospital during that time, or be able to come home. Have a great WOYWW.
ReplyDeleteoooh you have those lovely 12x12 drawers. I measured for some in my space but they won't fit boo hoo! Love your lies, especially number 2 RFLOL!

Good luck at the hospital, and with the cards!
ReplyDeleteOh Betty, you have loads of boxes full of goodness knows what!! and those Useful boxes on wheels! (I keep hinting!) now I'm wondering of course, what's in all those flora tubs inside the useful boxes, coz I'm nosy! Had a nice morning at work, was a bit late but no one was there, sept the workmen. Had a lovely walk thro' the woods and back along the beach with their dogs, (If no ones there, that's what I usually do, play with the dogs!) Have a good day, look after hubby!

Love the storage. I need more but no room. Tell your DH the 24hr thingy is fine but getting the glue off tomorrow will be a nightmare. Mine took 7 days to get rid of!!!
