What a difference a week makes. This time last week we were in Bucharest visiting the Old Town, where I came across a whole street filled with art shops, this week I am back at work!
I admit that my desk is totally staged. I was very good and actually only ventured into one shop as my husband was with me. I spent the equivalent of a whole pound on these paper napkins that could be bought individually. I also picked up a play in Romanian for 40p which can be used for journal backgrounds. The cover is good too and I may well alter it sometime in the future. The reason my desk is staged is that I have been very busy making samples for two upcoming Clarity shows on HOCHANDA since we returned home. Leonie's are on Friday and Barbara's are on Sunday afternoon. Obviously I can't share what I have been making, but I did use my watercolour pencils for a couple of the samples.
The old town of Bucharest is full of restaurants and cafes as well as art shops, a fabric shop which I would have loved to explore, boutiques and the book shop which I shared last week.
I may set aside more money for crafty purchases next time we visit as the Talens and Pebeo paints and inks were rather good value.
There is no picture of the other side of my desk as Eva hasn't made it over for crafting this week. Next week we will make up for it for certain. We have a full day workshop with Maria Moorhouse on Saturday for a start.
Please visit Julia over at the Stamping Ground to find out more about what WOYWW is about and to see more interesting desks than mine at the moment.
