Messy Desk.
Tags:In between cleaning, feeding Simon, showering, checking email, etc I hopped over to Two Peas and saw a challenge about messy desks. Oh man, I totally have a messy desk - the proof is above. What I loved about the challenge was that it was not just to take a pic of your messy desk but to make something with the stuff that is laying on top. I don't have enough time right now to make something with all that stuff, but I loved the idea. Do something with what you have. Cool.

Awesome. Your wireless mouse totally caught my eye since mine is usually at the bottom of the pile as well! LOL!

That challenge is a great idea, but I don't have time to clean mine up right now, much less do something creative with it. lol I need to get to bed if I have any hope in getting to church on time in the morning (even though we're usually late). :yawn:

Bonjour Ali!
Even in the mess, you've got a beautiful place, I have to confess... ;o)
Would you like to make a challenge, with me?

I am going to a crop today. Last evening, I was cleaning off my table and packing my things for the crop. I decided to use the scraps on my desk to make mini albums for all the people at the crop so I did! I'm just hoping they will like the simpleness of these albums!

Ali... thanks for posting that picture... mine looks alot like yours and my DH threatens every once in a while to bring in the garbage can... he hasn't yet!!! But I know I am not the only person that has a mess at hand... I need to get it under control again... off to clean.

My 'studio' looks the same only we call it the kitchen table :)
Just as I get it under control I set aside time for a 'creative' Sunday morning and it returns to its former 'glory'...
Hopefully when we move to a new place I will get a chance to have a special place for my craft work.

I hate to say this, but I think my desk is messier than yours... and I'm not posting a pic because it is SOOO messy! =) Thankfully I have a door that I can close on my scrapbook room!
Thanks for posting this, I will have to try and do something creative with my mess as I have a lot of projects in the works too!

Loved this post because my desk is a literal mess as well.
If only I didnt have to actually work on my lesson plans maybe I could also be creative for once this weekend.
So glad you "chose" family over work. I know its hard but its the best choice! Yeah for Ali.

Yep, that looks about right. Your studio looks like it is in MUCH better shape than mine! I actually pushed aside some of the mess to work on a project during the week, but the room still has a lot of work to be done. I hope you'll be posting pics of your new studio soon, too! Perhaps you'll inspire some of us first-timers (okay, at least THIS first timer) on how to get things together.

Holy CRAP that is one very messy desk and I LOVE it! :O) You just made me feel a little normal- like everyone out there really does have days and desks like mine. LOL! That is if I had my desk assembled and but to work- it is just my floor that is a mess where the desk is supposed to be! Sometimes I get so STUCK in my own mess- I feel like I am the only one out there with a mess in my life! :O) I love how REAL you are Ali! Thank you!

Love, love, love the fact that my desk has a buddy on the opposite side of the country. Organized, clean and neat desk is what my minds says I need but I find that I am much more creative with the mess. The only tinsy winsy issue is that there is a tipping point at which time I can't locate a thing. So then we revert back to organized, clean and neat .....and the cycle is re-born.
