WOYWW AND 12 TAGS BEGIN TODAY

Ok then, I have been waiting for this Wednesday for the last 353 days, or would it be 352 since it took me a little longer last year to make all 12 tags? - however many days it is, the next 12 will be the most exciting. So, not only is it the day of the week that I really look forward to ( a great big thank you to Julia for that 'cos I get to wander around the world having a good old nosey at every one's crafting space), but today is the first day of The 12 Tags of Christmas run by Mr Tim Holtz.
Before I show you my work space today (actually I took the photo last night but it is still the same this morning until the 1st tag posts), I just have to thank so many of you for the wonderful comments last week, and also want to boast the fact that I visited every single one of you - WOW! that's a first for me - for liking and praising my DH, aka 'peg leg', on the fabulous ink blending tool holder he made for me.
Actually, he was 'taken a back' by some of the lovely things said that he wanted to hijack this post and say,
Thank you very much for the admiration you have given to the blending tool holder I made for my DW. Unfortunately, all those of you wanting me to make one for you will be very disappointed because I have started my next project (something for myself this time). What do you think?
Sorry crafters.

Here is my work space then.
Completely empty and ready for the 'off'.
Also, may I just hope that everyone suffering this awful cold spell (UK) is managing to keep warm. So far, the NW has had  freezing temperatures, but  no snow . Please also spare a thought for our wild feathered friends. It's really hard for them to find food under all that snow.
Take care.

I think we need a new rule. If your DH won't make one of something for all your visitors, you're not allowed to taunt us all with it.

I'm in the NW too and can't believe I've just moved back here from New York. New York is so much warmer than Britain. It's just not fair.

Enjoy Tim's Tags.

cheers, rachel #54

Your husband is wonderful, even though he is not making blender tools for hundreds of enthusaistic crafters... sigh.
I sneaked to the post above and saw your first Tim-tag, it turned out incredibly beautiful.

Julia Dunnit said...

Good Lord an electric guitar! Does he play? Mr Dunnit made a violin a few years ago (to see if he could) and we had to take it to a music shop to hear it played! Sounded good to me..hope your experience is similar! Lots of you looking foreward to the tags - love that you've tidied up so thoroughly ready to go!

Elizabeth said...

Gosh, your OH is a very talented man - a guitar this time, fantastic. I just had to pop over to Lord Holtz's and check out his first tag - brilliant - I can see why you've cleared the decks and look forward to seeing all 12 creations.

Pam said...

UNCLE! I'm crying UNCLE! I wasn't going to do it but now I HAVE to follow Timmy's 12 tags! But does my desk have to be clean first?

AmberInk got lucky @#1!

Vicki B in OP NY said...

How cool is that, a guitar in the making! Very neat looking desk - until the 12 Tags fest gets underway. Keep warm. Hugs

Hi Joanne, I didn't get round to many folks last week so I went back through your old posts, and you can tell peg leg that he's definitely got another admirer! Great work there! Love your clean desk and I bet it's not clean anymore!
