WOYWW, Eggs, Pegs and Klitty

We didn't lose an hour this week... we lost the whole week somewhere and it's already WOYWW again. Each week I think I'm not going to be able to find anything to show but whilst I rarely have a tidy desk I just don't worry any more about showing my mess in this massive expose of craft desks around the world.

Yes! you guessed... it's a mess again, but isn't it so much more interesting than a tidy space?... well I've got to have some excuse!

If you want to experience this mayhem in depth call in on Julia at the Stamping-Ground blog for the link to over 100 more desks and I bet there's one worse than mine!!!

So many things on there that I bought in Germany, still waiting to be stored away but I'll get round to that one day soon, meanwhile I have been messing around with eggs. There was a make and take session in one of the craft shops in Germany to marble plastic eggs which prompted me to bring home some of their white plastic ones...  they were so cheap.... so I could have a play at home.

The big egg with the lacy band opens up so it will be great to give little gifts of chocky eggs and money to the children.

I'm going to stick this little nest, with it's small marbled eggs and cute compressed paper bird, on top of a round Ikea box.

Here are the German made Silikon Stempel from My Paper World which many of you asked to see. I haven't yet used them but I envisage them being handy for masculine cards. They were good value at 4.55 and 6.50 euros a plate.

Still no requests for these Dolly Pegs... Some time ago someone out there expressed a need for them, and I think it was someone from America... so if it was you, shout out now or I may just find a use for them myself!!! Even if you didn't request them originally please ask if you'd like them and if there are several people I can draw names for them.

Who needs them? email me!

Here's Klitty

My new best friend was sent to me by my blogging buddy Donna of the Doings of Doone blog as my gift for participating in "Pay it Forward".  It was such fun to receive this Tart with a Heart and she makes me smile when ever I see her so she will probably find a home in my kitchen so I can smile more often. I need her badly! I just love Klitty's tatty red hair and her stripey stockings... and I must reveal (but it probably won't embarress her when I tell you) that she wears no knickers!!! Ooh, er! 

Thanks so much for this treasure Donna, I will give her a good home, I promise.

I still owe my promised hand made items to the folk who responded to my PIF post but they won't be too long now (even though the rules stipulate the gifts must be made and sent during 2011, I won't leave it till November), and mine will be going out to.......Sam, Liverpool Lou,Tinker Taylor, Carmen, Kay and Tuire.

Last but certainly not least ... a huge thanks for all the good wishes sent by you for a very special person... my little grandee. There have been so many kind loving messages from all over the world and they are all really appreciated by me and my family. I am pleased to say that the latest tests have shown that her treatment is working really well and leave it there for now.
