clear table, clear mind




Today's assignment: clearing the workspace.  Cleaning my work surface to start the mess cycle over again.

After accomplishing this mighty task (I haven't shown you the worst) I'll be getting out my pens and gouache and playing with banner ideas for the shop.  I have no idea what I am going to do yet.  Hopefully something quick and minimal.

How about yours? (desks or worktables)

i think once you start to really love your work, the workspace reflects something beautiful and interesting. no matter if it's lace or broken doll parts. you can't really replicate that!

Ursula - Beautiful...poetic...

MP - It's true that even my messes are tidy. I never really get too carried away before I clean again :^)

Your table and the what remained from your working on your mighty task look beautiful and lovely.

At work the table is a mess,a chaos...too much work, too many things on mind.
At home, quite clear, bad, no time to sit and make something.
So better a bit of chaos of creatitivity.

Oh yes, the clearing, a daily challenge. The soft pale palette in your photographs is lovely. I like this Flicker group idea. I added mine too.

Lovely photos Janis, thank you for mention it here and thanks for adding new photos too!
I'm not in the blogosphere much these days, here in England the weather is amazingly nice and I spend a lot of time outside :-)
Big fan of Junkholique too!
