WOYWW
On my desk this morning there is the makings of a Garden Journal. It is the local village Garden Club Show next week and there is a craft section, so I thought I would enter that this year as last year my Victoria Sponge was unclassified! (My daughter's sponge came first and she still gloats about it to this very day!!!)
So as you can see there are various pieces of chipboard, Grungepaper, tags and my precious K & Company papers. Also my favourite gadget - my Bind-it-All - love making things with that.
Also I have this:
I found an old and battered clock and was going to take it apart to use all the cogs and thingies but I don't know if I have the heart to do that. It looks kind of nice as it is don't you think....? Any body got any ideas please?
O.K - so I'm off shopping now but will be back later to peruse some desks - will try to get round more this week as last week I failed rather miserably - bye for now - Jacqueline xx.
that little clock is fab.... hmmmm... frame the picture and take it apart... he he! Have fun shopping... Robin

oh love that clock I would take it to bits,and made a collage with all the pieces,then,frame it but before taking it all to pieces keep the original picture,and also frame that too,hugs cheryl xxxx
ReplyDeleteGreat desk, i too love my BIA, i should really try and use it more lol
ReplyDeleteas for the clock movement, i would say it makes the base for a rather cool steampunk bug, maybe a ladybird perhaps, the possibilities are endless.
I love the look of the old clock....dont think I could take it apart either but have no ideas of how to use it :-)
ReplyDeleteHope you find someone to make you some beetroot chutney cos it's really yummy.

Lovely busy desk there - very creative. Personally I would take the clock to pieces otherwise you will need to dust it (always best avoided that job if you ask me!). I too love my BIA and cant seem to stop making new things with it at the moment - it seems to have spurred me on whilst going through a bit of scrappers block!
ReplyDeleteI spy K & Co blue awning paper. My precious Toby's scrapbook is a blue awning one. I thought it was more 'manly' which is what he was. As for the clock workings, dismantle it and make wonderous creations instead of letting it accumulate dust.
ReplyDeleteLuv Joanne xx
a garden book sounds lovely, you def need to do something to top your daughter this year lol
ReplyDeleteThat clock insides looks fab, I would just clean it up and keep it as an ornament.
I would just clean it up and have it as decor too ... Good luck with the garden journal ... I have to admit I had a bit of a smile about the unclassified cake ... I can just imagine how much my dd would gloat :0)
ReplyDeleteLove the clock parts - it looks like a DR Who monster! Shouldn't you try to beat your daughter this year though?! Love the papers you've got out to use.
ReplyDeleteOh that clock looks like a steampunk installation! Just put it on display and claim that it is! How can you bear to use your precious Blue Awning papers - I only get mine out to stroke them ....
ReplyDeleteLove the clock, reminds me of a mechanical grasshopper!! I'd be scared it might jump on me, lol!

I would rust it and keep it as it is to display - great steampunk piece. Then again - would be great to undo and collage the pieces on a canvas.
ReplyDeleteYou are very brave to have an open cup of coffee/tea in your craft room. I have to have a mug with a lid or disasters will befall my projects.
ReplyDeleteI love that old clock. It looks like a steampunk piece, or a prone bug. I hope your garden journal does well this year. Good luck and happy WOYWW.
Oh you could make so many great things with the mechanisms in the clock :0)
ReplyDelete*hugs* Heather x
Ohhh love the look of the old clock. Mmm I wouldn't want to take it apart either as it looks amazing. Love the K and Company papers, Thanks for the nosey Hazelxoxo
ReplyDeleteLove the clock, now what to do with it? I would take it to bits !!
ReplyDeleteyou have the most important piece of kit on your desk ......a cup of tea, a gal after my own heart
ReplyDeletehugs
Take it apart Jacqueline - otherwise it's gonna just sit around unused, moved in and out of the way. Oh sorry, no, that's just what would happen here! Like the garden journal idea, good luck at the show. Unclassified. huh, what do they know!!
ReplyDeleteSorry I'm late, the clock thingy is fabulous!
