It's time to join our head desker and all around understanding and caring host, Julia at Stamping Ground for the latest edition of What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday.
But first, I must tell you, I have been trying to find a new refrigerator/freezer today (Tuesday) because mine quit working this morning sometime after my first coffee of the day and my eggs I was cooking for a very late lunch. I think I found one, but they can't deliver it until next Wednesday or Thursday. Seems all the big box stores are booked on delivery because of all the sales made over the Memorial Day weekend, which I completely forgot about! It may be the weekend before I visit, but I will try to reach as many as I can Wednesday morning until my right hand gives out. Then I must do something about the food that is in my fridge and freezer and put my computer time aside. I hope you understand.
I always love when people give me things I can use as storage. That is the case of my foodie friend Sally who gave me this 6 tier bath container. The index card on my table is hiding a project I'm currently working on. That's why the storage unit is on my table today.
Each container is marked telling what is inside. Inside this tier you'll find colored flower petals.
This tier holds pen nibs. Not the desirable pointy kind, but calligraphy nibs. You can see the silicone mat my friend gifted me that I ruined when I heat set embossing powder. I misunderstood thinking it was the same as the mats Tim Holtz sells. I guess you see the rocking horse of the week, too.
Certainly not my smallest, but I like that it is on rollers, which qualifies in my world as a rocking horse.
I hopeyou can get a new fridge/freezer soon, it is such a nuisance when they pack up, mine did it when it was really hot weather! Happy WOYWW Helen #?
ReplyDeleteShoot on that fridge! Glad we have two Eskies and you can get party-ice at gas stations...
ReplyDeleteNice container!
LOL. You made me search real hard for the rocking horse in the pic above it!
It´s a cute one.
Super storage, cool how the containers rotate out. Hope the fridge/freezer comes soon and you don't loose too much food from the old one. Hugs BJ#7
ReplyDeleteSigh on the fridge. I hope the replacement arrives sooner than expected.
ReplyDeleteLove that storage container.
Please look after you - and your hand. We will wait.
How aggravating about the freezer! Hope the neighbours have some extra room while you wait for a new one! Your new rocking horse is cute, how many does that make? Great storage container. Angela #11
ReplyDeletePanic stations here when my fridge bust! Hope yours comes soon and calm is restored . . . as well as cold food!!
ReplyDeleteLove that little rocking horse, how cute.

Have a creative week

It is just plain inconvenient when stuff that you don’t give a second thought to on a daily basis suddenly needs attention and replacement. Shoot, indeed. We had to replace a washing machine about five years ago and it was a lesson in how far washing machine technology has evolved…my old one would fill with water and then start agitating, this (now not new) one agitates immediately and uses a fraction of the water, although it still takes a ridiculous amount of time to run a programme. I hiopenyour new fridge is frost free and perfect! It’s a lesson for me about the silicone mat too, I thought they were all made of the same stuff, and that the Holtz version just had his name and therefore ££ attached. I don’t use one at all as you’ll have seen over the years, my desk can’t stand any more permanent layers!
ReplyDeleteOh that’s a nuisance, I hope it comes soon and you don’t lose too much food.
ReplyDeleteI love your new storage container though. Very swish. Your spotty wheelie horse is cute too.
Take care and happy WOYWW

Happy WOYWW. How annoying that you can't get a replacement fridge freezer delivered immediately. I hope you can rescue the food. No ICAD here. I stopped doing challenges and trades a few years ago, as I had to admit that I always struggle to keep up with them. Simplifying my life isn't just about decluttering, but reducing the amount of commitments and deadlines too. Ali x #17
ReplyDeleteLoving the new storage tower, very useful and the little rocking horse too. Hope you get you fridge freezer sorted quickly. Wishing you a successful WOYWW. Hugs, Angela x8x
ReplyDeleteHope you manage to sort all that food out Elizabeth. SUch a difficulty when these things break down. Love the storage stack - it loooks so useful. Stay safe and Happy WOYWW. Sarah #15 (you can tell it's the holidays lol).
ReplyDelete...you sure are more organized than I am!
ReplyDeleteI hope your new frig/freezer comes as expected.
ReplyDeleteThat organizer works well for you. :)
Good luck with all that.
ReplyDeleteIt's a tough time of year not to have a fridge.
Sorry your fridge/ freezer gave up and hope you get a new one sooner rather than later! Hugs,Valerie
ReplyDeleteI'm only just taking a break from having a really manic day today but I wanted to call by at my favourite blogs before my tea.....I've had 8 customers today!!!
ReplyDeleteFab new storage.
Hugs,

I love tiered containers.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. As if you didn't have enough in your life to stress you out. Hope you enjoy the new fridge once you get it.
ReplyDeleteLove that little rocking horse:)
Hugs

ReplyDeleteHugs

ReplyDeleteLose and of course. The one its hard to live without. Good luck with getting g your new
One. Hugs from Iceland- Erika
I love seeing your work space! Oh, I wish you lived closer -- I'm getting rid of all my rubber stamps (well, most) on my yard sale and tons of paper and powders and stamp pads. I think of you and Valerie and Erika all the time as I'm sorting!
ReplyDeleteWe need a new washer and dryer, although the old ones are still limping along. The price of appliances staggers me!
ReplyDeleteYour work desk looks great.
