WOYWW 106 - Pif arrival

Thanks to Julia for hosting WOYWW but I wish to digress...

My desk photo will appear at the end, as I feel you must want it - afterall why else do we all tour around the desks if it isn't because we love desks?  However my contribution this week will be devoted to my Thank You to Janet my Pif sender.

I was very excited when my parcel arrived last Thursday, but I excercised great control and waited for OH to come home. - Why? No idea, he has nothing to do with my blog, or my crafting (unless requested), I think I wanted to show off!

So the jiffy bag shouted at me all day, but I remained strong.

On opening the package I found a neatly wrapped present, (guilt set in, I didn't gift wrap mine).

Unwrapped the present to find a beautiful covered address book.  I know nothing about papercraft etc., but I would say this is a fabric, which has been stamped and dyed, glittered, blocked out, just spotted a rivet too.  I hope Janet describes her work to you, as I have not been able to do it credit it in the slightest.

Inside was a bookmark with a fluffy tail!

And waste not want not, my 4 year old spotted the wrapping paper, which had butterflies on it, asked for it and ran off to her room (a crafter in the making?).  So even the wrapping paper was a hit!

OH said, 'well what happens now?', when I explained (again) how it all worked he said ' well thats good because we need a new address book'!  This is high praise indeed, even he liked it and wants to use it.  So all round Janet your Pif was a big hit in our household THANK YOU.

So here is my desk - in case you were missing it.

Whats on your floor Friday!



I'm thinking of starting a new group, What's on your floor Friday - any takers!!

  1. What a lovely gift PP - no wonder you were (both) so happy! I dunno why you should save it for OH either, but I tially get it! YOu got it all going on at that desk - I am by comparison, smug. I know you haven't seen my desk, but it's the normal bad. BUT... My floor - clear!!

  9. They What a fab PIF gift and a useful one too. I love the colours that Janet has used.

    Now, as for my floor, forget it, I’d be too ashamed to show you what’s down there but it’s mostly stuff that needs to be put back where it lives the rest of the time.

    Happy Crafting!

  13. That's a lovely Pif! No wonder you were thrilled. I am still waiting for mine to arrive from Slovenia(!) There is always stuff on my floor. In fact there is more chance of stuff being on my floor than on my desk!
