just chatting
Hi everyone - hope you haven't got too wet today.
I spent some time this morning doing a little more sorting out. It has got to the stage now where I need to go back to the desk drawers & sort them out in order to be able to put more things away.
Also so that I can get my head round where things are instead of hunting for ages.
One of the plastic boxes I sorted through held loads of different adhesives. So I checked out the ones that seemed to have got hard or not work at all & threw them out. There were some small items in there like palm style craft knives - I particularly like working with them - so it was good to find them. I found about 3 or 4. As I discovered all these things I realised I needed to think about the things that I wanted kept to hand - eg - on or nearby my desk. On the bookcase at the side of my desk I have 4 brightly coloured fabric "buckets" - they have a plastic lining & are for painters, but they make a great holdall for my brushes I use with inks. On 2 sides of each bucket there are little pockets - so they now hold things like pricking tools, scalpel style craft knives, embossing tools, bone folders & so on.
I told you about the cutlery tray I bought didn't I! Well that is now full of things - so I will do as I said the other day & photograph it to show you. I am pretty certain I will get another one because they should stack on top of each other.
With doing all these crochet workshops I have got the bug again so as I have so much wool I decided to use some up by making something sensible. I am already just making a huge square with oddments. But now I have started a baby cardigan - that sounds daft - as if I am making a mii version of something. That should read I am making a cardigan for a baby. It's not for anyone in the family don't get excited - it's for a young girl I know who is expecting her first baby. I have also heard of another colleague who has found she is pregnant so there could be a little run on these things.
That's me for today - I am off to bed. At least it is not so hot at night now. I love the hot days but not keen on the hot nights. Night night all.
