Ha, almost got caught out yesterday. Just about to start on something in here and suddenly remembered that I needed to make a dessert for today. So, in usual fashion, things were just left like this and I ran away into the kitchen.
A week or two back, a few folk mentioned the HUGE 'butterfly stamps' on the desk on WOYWW:
Here they are again - but they're not stamps at all in fact. We have an uncoloured panel in the front door which is beautifully patterned, but there are two clear spots where anyone of a 'nosy nature' can see right down the hallway.
'Mr Security' here already raided my finished 'sun catchers' but now wants two newly made matching ones. Hence the box of glass paints all ready for action.
So, the eye can deceive, not stamps after all :)
A couple of new stamps at the back and the tailors chalk borrowed by Len for some DIY still waiting to be put away with the sewing stuff - don't ask!
And today I'm off on my travels for lunch with some lovely bloggers, bearing said dessert :) Stand by - I'm on my waaaaaaaaay.
Do hop over to
Julia's to see
the state of her desk that she'll be leaping onto a chair and photographing - and of course there's loads of fun to be had by hopping round to see everyone who linked in as well. Guess I'll be playing catch up after my little adventure :)
Have a great day, I'm sure
I will!

ReplyDeletehave a great day out and enjoy the dessert! I think the sun catchers will be perfect security blockers! Have a great week. Vickie #23
ReplyDeleteStanding by I am. 'citing innit!
ReplyDeleteI think it's grand that you can use craft stuff for home security, surely that improves the craft budget on the basis of it's seriousness?
Yes - I am sure there would be a market for security butterflies. lol. Have a fab day out. x Jo
ReplyDeleteCrafters are always so versatile no matter what the occasion I think we can come up with some way of adding butterflies. Enjoy your lunch.

Enjoy your lunch get together, including the dessert. Good idea to use the butterflies in that way (and they do look like stamps). Thanks for the opportunity of having a peep at your workspace - trying to make a few visits early this week! Hazel, WOYWW #87 x
ReplyDeleteOoh, I hope we get to see a finished picture of the butterflies!
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW

Is it bad that all I really want to know is what dessert you made? Oh, and can we see a picture of the door with your suncatchers? Bet's it's dead cool.
ReplyDeletecheers, rachel #19
Haven't made sun catchers for ages, they were all the rage when I were a nipper. Looks like you're going to have great fun
ReplyDeleteSophie no.93
Hope you had a wonderful lunch with your crafty pals Di. I was out to lunch today too but passed on the desert.(only because I’m being weighed tomorrow)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to fill the gaps in your window with sun catchers. The butterflies will look very pretty there when they are done.
Happy Crafting!

I'm envious of your day out! Wish I could come join you guys (maybe someday).
ReplyDeleteTime got away from me and so no linking up for me this week. I did want to pop in to see what you've been up to though.
Hugs,
Kay
Clever you, no surprise, to come up with a beautiful solution to halt the peeping eyes. All the while letting hundreds of peeping eyes into your craft room. Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to hearing all about your raucous luncheon. Thanks for stopping by my place!
All the best, Darnell #45
I bet those butterflies are going to look beautiful on your front door, Di. Don't forget we need piccies of them in situ!!
ReplyDeleteI'm very envious of you going out to play today, especially as you are taking dessert. I think I need to move to your neck of the woods, I'll bring a Greggs pasty to the party, promise!!!
Hope you had a great day.
Happy WOYWW

Would love to see the sun catchers when finished... have a great lunch with your crafty buddies... Have a happy week Di, Hugs May x x x#62
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your lunch and especially the dessert. dani22
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed your day di, :)x
ReplyDeleteHope you have had a good day, will love to see the painted butterflies.
ReplyDeleteKath x
Hope you had a good day today Di! I trust dessert will be on the Friday menu?!!
ReplyDeleteWhat?! No picture of the dessert? I suppose that's for the best, to keep us from drooling. I don't remember the huge butterfly stamps on your desk (especially now that I see them) but I have seen a couple really huge butterfly stamps before. I'm not sure the purpose of them (big stamps, not the sun catcher things you have). I have a sweet sun catcher thing but how do you get it to stay to the window? Those suction cup things don't seem to work.
ReplyDeleteI'm a bit late getting round to all the posts this week...hope your dessert went well and you had a lovely day out!
ReplyDeleteHi there Di, I really am glad am running late as saw the pickies of the gathering of the clan - would have missed otherwise!! Thanks so much for popping over and thanks for sharing ~ happy WOYWW! Shaz in Oz. x #25
ReplyDeleteHhm, thought I'd already commented but can't find it! I'm doing everything back asswards as I've already seen both the desert and the meet up!! I didn't know you also did glass painting too, multi talented!!
