Three Things : On My Table

I am definitely in mess mode at the moment! I have some new fabric that just came in on my table, my ATG, and a brand new Hero Arts birdhouse stamp that I'm dying to use!!!

i've got a huge mess. my table is covered in hero arts stamps, new ac zing, and the new glue dots dispensers among many other things. i'm unsure if i can create without a mess.

Tried comparing my messy table to yours...I'm not sure who is winning. ;)
Three things on my table I'm excited about: newer My Mind's Eye rub-on's from the Laundrey Line. They're gorgeous butterflies, foliage, and words. I haven't used as much MME in the past year as I used to, and I also haven't used as many rub-on's lately, but three of their rub-on sets from that line are just so gorgeous and I had fun layering them on a page last night.
Also--this isn't brand new but I've been really enjoying MM's Paperie spiral journaling books. Those cute pages have been showing up on my layouts a lot lately.
Lastly--cute tags from Easter stuff I bought! Some of them are going straight on the pages as they are, and some of them I will alter.

Ha ha, at first I read your comment as "A half-finished mini book...and a guilt trip in progress."

My desk is good now. I was just cleaning in the weekends a bit .Normally it is a BIG mess.My projects and my kids there too.I add two more shelf's(from IKEA,$14.99,love it) and still working on organizing better.I have more space now(my husband and my brother make a nice area for me in the basement ,add some extra lightning and carpet.Basement is not finish yet ,but it's ok.

I just moved - so my table has odds and ends covering it looking for their new home. I thought moving would be a great opportunity to sort and arrange everything -- but what do you do with all of these oddball items. Unpacking is becoming more of a chore now. But halfway there!

Thanks for sharing "reality." Ashamed to say that the December Daily project is still in progress on my table...but it is progressing...gradually!

Well, I have to keep my desk cleaned off for 2 reasons...first, it's smack dab in the middle of the living room, lol, and second, it's also my computer desk. In order to use the computer, I have to clean up the mess each time I'm done working. ;)
Three new-to-me things that I'm LOVING are Making Memories Tiny Alphabets, Tim Holtz Grungeboard and the EK Success Corner Rounder (I looked for it forever!!).

I WISH I could develop at least mild OCD so I'd more often have the urge to clean. It happens some time, but not enough!

My table - my whole office, in fact - seems to be always in a mess ... not because of my projects but because of my "helpers." It seems to be the dumping ground for everyone's stuff - school papers, Skylar's toys, LEGOs, clean but unfolded laundry, my son's daily cartoons and book he uses with his blog, unpacked store bags from our weekend trip ... the list goes on and on. Today it's stuff from the Easter baskets, plus my newest "toy" acquired over the holiday - a heavy-duty corner rounder by Zutter that will cut through chipboard. So, if I ever find my scrapbooking stuff under all the other clutter, I might give it a try!

On my desk: Pages in progress, cut up cardboard to modge podge into mini albums, misc. pictures that need homes, a circle punch, corner rounder, and a big bag of trail mix.

LOL! Tiffani, I had to chuckle. I gave up on my December Daily dreams a long time ago. Now, if only I could finish that Thanksgiving album...

i am re-doing my scrap room right now, so things are a mess. My scrap table is rather small, so a lot of the mess has sprea on the floor. Honestly, I function better with a certain level of mess.
Three things I like right now are:
chipboard hearts
buttons
scallop edge punch
These are all in a bag on the floor next to my table.

I'm starting to get over the must-do-12x12-rule, too. For a long time I was faithful to it, and the double-page layouts. They were a must. But who has time for all of that?!
I think I'm going to start doing 8 1/2 x 11s or even 8 x 8 LOs. It just seems easier, and the size is more practical.

Ha! I can't last a whole day without the mess returning, let alone a few days!

On my desk right now...
A square punch, paper trimmer, and patterned paper for a collage I'll be starting soon.
A box of I'll-put-this-away-later stuff.
Some bright spring-colored flower pots to house my markers, paint brushes, and other high-use tools.

Currently, I am using your "week in the life" idea for my scrapbook of the Mission: Savannah trip I took last summer. My desk is covered but I haven't been working on too much lately. I am waiting until September when I can reclaim part of my house and make my scrap space a little bigger.

Mine usually isn't a mess, but with 3 different themed LO's going on, there's no way around it. I was inspired to order the different sized page protectors from last week's post so I am having fun! I did a 6x12 last night & I really love it! I can't wait to get all these different sizes into an album.So many stories, so much fun!

You're 3Things posts always enable me! I am going to have to go get that MS punch! And the paper clips too! Thanks for sharing :)

Too Much Junk!! I've recently been inspired to start some sewing projects (found some really cute baby shoes patterns), so I've got all my sewing stuff out. Plus piles of pictures that are waiting to be scrapped and a million other little pieces of things. Found out yesterday that we're going to have to start cleaning out the house to try and sell it, so I've really got to get in the cleaning and organizing mode!!
