A Very Seasonal WOYWW

It's a very seasonal What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday for me this week, it's officially Christmas in my house, all the decorations are up, the cards are made and sent and I just need to wrap all the presents, I'm really beginning to get into the Christmas spirit, hope you are too.  If you are unaware of this phenomenon, pop over to Julia's place HERE to find out all the details and visit some great desks/craft spaces at the same time.
As always, I have kept my desk relatively tidy apart from the usual weekly challenge piece awaiting some finishing touches and to be posted after WOYWW.  The small plastic containers at the back of my desk are a new purchase to house my Tim Holtz embellishments and they work fabulously as they are there right at hand when I need them.   Everything else around the desk are to be added to my challenge piece or bits and pieces created during the process.
As I mentioned at the beginning of my post, my Christmas decorations are now up so I thought I would take this opportunity to show you my real Christmas tree in all its glory.
I have also decorated some branches in my conservatory.  I hope to visit a few more desks this week, time allowing once I have watched my daughter in her school Nativity.  Wherever you are have a fabulous week, until the next time, Tracy x x

oh it looks so lovely - and so peaceful - arghhh I feel like I might be worse at this Christmas thing than I first realised - still the uni Kids were pleased when I delegated the task of house decorating to them on their return on the 18th Dec... so you may see my decorations if you pop in on Christmas weds (28th)

Julia Dunnit said...

Aw nativity, guaranteed tears from me then! I think Tracy, that we are starting to influence your desk...little containers permanently on hand for bits and bobs - sort of describes my whole room - dear gal, stay off the slippery slope won't you!! Your christmas decorations are beautiful.

sandra de said...

Gorgeous decorations and I am in awe of the tidy, clean and orderly desk.

Joey said...

Hi Tracy
Your Christmas tree is truly beautiful and I love the idea for your conservatory. That is just my cup of tea...love foliage etc from the garden.
Have a lovely day. (Nice desk, as ever, so organised...I want some!!!)

It's lovely to see a real tree, and the foliage brought in from the garden. I've been snaffling holly, spruce and laurel from the back garden to fill the mantel.

Lovely tree and branch display in the conservatory, very festive. As always a very tidy desk, if I didn't know better I'd say you can't ever make anything, but we all know that's not true!! have a great week.

Your tree is everything a Christmas tree should be. I love it! But your desk is awe inspiring. How is it so tidy? How can my desk be more like your desk?

I'm so jealous!
