absolutely flat out.

Sorry for being so absent. I'm hoping I'll be crazy busy from now until Christmas BUT that doesn't leave much time for this little patch.

On my desk today:

pencils for little tins of drawing fun. Don't they look wonderful. They make me want to dig out the Derwents. I seem to remember this girl still has hers from childhood.

On my desk...the players

On my desk...freshly updated

See you soon.

    Your desk looks gorgeous and colourful. I loved my Derwent pencils. Nothing coloured-in quite as smoothly....

    Your picture in my sidebar was too small to tell what it was. When I clicked on you and the picture came, my heart went a flutter...

    Love this pic! I remember being in kindergarten and my job was to sharpen the pencils in one of those little machines and then put them in tins out on the desks for all the other kids. Love that memory :)
    By the way, I have finally started playing along! Yay for on my desk, lovely idea.
