What's On My Desk~This Week

Well, I'm back for the 2nd week of the new series, Yay for Me!!!

Ready for pics...

Computer Desk Area
Bunches of goodies for 2014 Organizational System
All Products from Staples

Top Row: Left to Right...
My current planner
~an organizer thing that is always on this desk {it holds cords, chargers, electronics wipes, and a box of ~Project Life journal grid cards}

Next Row: Left to Right...
~File folders {Some are from the Martha Stewart line, bot sure what the others are.}
~mini 3-ring binder {I'm considering using as my planner binder for 2014.  I actually have a real "Franklin" binder, that I've had for several years, and used quite a bit. We shall see which one I decide to go with} ~2014 Planner Refill pages. {These are very similar to the Franklin Covey system, but a bit cheaper. And since I never really know how well I'm going to follow through with my organization, I opt for cheaper}
an additional pack of dated monthly dividers {I will use these one's for financial planning section of planner} ~dividers/page tab thingy's {also the Martha Stewart line. I will use these to label different sections of planner}
~black paper clips
~pile of notebooks and pens {that reside here all the time}
~my iPhone
~several cups {that cute aqua colored one with the festive winter trees is new and for Hot Chocolate, NOT coffee.}
Alrighty, moving on.

I should come up with a name of this desk area.
This is a working space area, so maybe we'll call it the work space desk. 

Left to Right...
~A Project Life Wedding mini kit{I found this on a clearance rack, for 50% off, which is crazy! I'm not actually planning to work on my wedding album any time soon, but since the kit has an all black & white color scheme, I plan to incorporate the cards into my regular Project Life kit. Several of the cards do have wedding specific prompts on them, but like all Project Life cards, they are 2 sided and I can use the backside!!}
~Project Life grid journal cards {also scored these for 50% off!! At first, I considered NOT buying them, thinking I have a good size pile of these already, but then I realized that was foolish, you can NEVER have too many of these grid cards!!! Especially for $2.49 I use them for all kinds of things, note taking, filling in empty blanks in Project Life album, like when I'm missing a picture or some such thing. I write quotes on them, song lyrics, notes to myself, To Do lists, etc.}
~2 bottles of Distress Paint from Tim Holtz, Rusty Hinge & Gathered Twigs-super fun color names, I think! I've never used his Distressed Paint before but these looked like good fall colors for my Mother/Daughter photo shoot album OR my Fall Manifesto Album. If you've never checked out Tim Holtz stuff, you really should go to his website and have a look around. He is incredibly talented. My style is a bit different than his, but I love the stuff he makes!!}
~some washi tape {LOVE love love LOVE Washi tape!}
~some bakers twine
~a rub on
~some chipboard cut outs, by Bo Bunny
~Bracket chipboard
~sheet music rubber stamp
~{yes, another} ampersand rubber stamp
~chipboard Monogram letters D & M {also for the Mother/Daughter album}
~a stack of Christmas ribbon {who knows what I'll use those for! I'd love to use them on Christmas Cards, if I could manage to make/buy/send any. I LOVE getting Christmas cards, but that's a whole different blog post, coming in December.}
~and lastly, my bad ass scull cup {yes, I have 5 cups in The Studio at this time!!! I really should clean those up.
And that's what's on my desk this week!!!
I did clean up the mess Saturday night, to make room to empty out my closet, in preparation for the new closet storage that is being built on Sunday. I am SUPER excited about that!!!! I will take pics and post about that project too, so check back first of the week!
