WOYWW 630: Wendy's show

 

It's Wednesday and that means it's time to join Julia at Stamping Ground.  

It stays light so late these days, it's hard to tell that it's really Tuesday evening in my world.

The only thing on my desk today is a wooden rocker.  I have dozens and dozens of wooden rockers and they are all different.  The reason my desk is devoid of any project is because I'm going on vacation soon.  Friday in fact.  Not to worry.  I'll be by to visit everyone before I leave.

Julia likes to keep things short and sweet, 

so I'm going to turn things over to Wendy.  That way, Julia can be mad at her, not me!  This is the caddy Wendy guards, so go for it, Wendy! 

 

BTW, for those who didn't know, I created Wendy 12 years ago for the first WOYWW anniversary. It was the first time I stamped on fabric. I stamped her face, then stuffed and sewed it in place. I added a few long hairs because I have very short hair, but bangs that come to or below my eyebrows. I then cut the bodice out of fabric and the skirt out of some very heavy cloth I had. I used the ONLY stencil I owned at the time to write the letters down the side of her skirt. I have a friend who made a real cloth doll she didn't like and when she deconstructed it, she got rid of the arms and feet.   I took them home where they would do some good.  Wendy has been everywhere with me over the years, from the grocery store to the bakery, the florist, the voting booth, and the ATM to name a few. She looks pretty good for 12, I think.

Yes, my name is Wendy and I am E's alter ego.  I'm also a lot cuter, too!  I guard the tools on this desk.  There are scissors, needle nose pliers, an architect's scale (I think E calls it a drafter's ruler), and a new gifted ruler that tears paper in awesome ways.

 

A peek inside the caddy shows different types of sponges, several paint brushes, and a paint tray palette.  Inside the baggie you'll find various stencils, including several sizes of punchinella (sequin waste).

 

Occasionally, E finds items she didn't remember she had, like this bleach pen and the water brushes.

 

There are loads of pockets around the outside.  Just so you know, these "nail files" are for sanding art, not shaping E's long nails.  She also has a plethora of old faux gift cards she uses to spread paint on paper.

I seem to be digressing.

 

Pencils, pens, and toothbrushes for spattering paint take up this side. 

 

There's even a tiny mirror in the mix.

 

I hope you enjoyed this look into my caddy of shame.  I think Wendy did a good job of describing the contents, although she forgot the side opposite this one.  Please join Wendy and me at Julia's, where you'll meet tidy, messy, product laden, enablers of craft supplies, and the sweetest and most generous people on the planet.
