When I was taking the paints and powders out of the box they'd been in, (next to my craft sheet/workspace on the floor) I found another pot of Matte Medium - so I had one all along!!! Doh. Still, I am sure it keeps...
Looks like I need to dust off the meltpot though! You can see I haven't used it in a while. Oops!
The glass of dirty water just in front is my brush cleaning/scrub it mat damper!),strictly not for drinking from!
I got another set of Timmy stamps since we last met (so much for not shopping! -- but they'd been on order a while, so they weren't really "new" shopping, and that's my excuse!) I did show them the other day, but in case you weren't around, here they are again - Brolly Man. (don't think that's the proper name!) Love him!!
Still on my craft mat is my Tag Tuesday tag (see yesterday's post for details)
Well, that's it for me this week, short (ish) and sweet - now I'm off to see what you've all been up to. Have a great day.

Much better then cake in the cake stand lol! xx
stand looks great
The stand looks either better when filled. I love how when tidying you find new/lost things....I found a whole pack of AC pattern pappers the other day!!
Thanks for sharing
you put the stand to such good use!
The stand looks much better full of lovely yummyness and you have a nice stash of paints etc. I want brolly man and have wanted him for a while might have to sort that soon. Loved the mannequin tag. Have a good day, Tracy Evans x
I have the exact same cake stand which I bought for... cakes but now I'm persuaded to move it to my craft table instead, looks great :-)
Love the cake stand it looks fab - love those new stamps too, he is also my favourite of Tim's but I havent got brolly man yet - maybe in November when I go to Hobbycrafts!. That tag looks great too - I really must get into Tag Tuesday too as I love making them!

Oh the cake stand looks great. I have a melting pot that hasn't seen daylight in sometime to.
Hey you have the same dress form tag that I do. Love the way you've decorated it.

Love Chanelle xx
Good morning, your cake stand looks great, such a great place to stash your stash, lol!

Hooray, you filled the cake stand. I'd rather have those goodies than cakes.
Luv Joanne xx
Pleased you filled your stand and thanks for another brilliant peep at your desk.
Enjoy the day
Tracey
Fantastic use for the cake stand & love the tag.
Fab use of the cakestand, I also find things when tidying!
The brolly man is not shopping, it's to create a stamp collection!
Hugs
Maarit
Love the non calorific cakes!! :) Brolly man is essential supplies...yes?!
xoxo Sioux
Your filled cake stand looks great, paints are much better than cakes! That little square of card with a flower on it that's sitting on top of an archival ink pad has given me an idea for something to try!
what a lot of goodies on your stand - would love to come and play with all that lovely stash - far better than putting cakes on it ;o)
loved your cake stand. great idea!
mee dear - is that a thick layer of dust on your melt pot? are you neglecting your UTEE and waxing techniques? Tut Tut...(!)
tyhanks for the snoop - fab photos,
dx
Nice to see you found the perfect supplies to put in your cake stand. Really nice use of your win. I like that stamp set, too. Always admired the "guy" in it. Happy WOYWW.
hello Helen, top of the shop for you today, number 1 on Julia's list!
Super desk, tfs I love seeing everyones crafting goodies!
I do love your Brolly Man its good to get a quirky image for a fella's card and this would be perfect!
I love your caddy tower, I definitely want one of those!

That groaning cake stand is a sight for sore eyes, and I love the new stamp set too.
Marilyn
Ooo gorgeous tag Helen. Great colours. :) I just love your cake stand. I've been keeping my eyes open for one for about a month now but haven't had any joy! Have fun with your new stamps.xx
love the cake stand I have one too they work really well and obviously very pretty to look at xx
Darn, I knew you'd find a use for that basket. And yeah, it looks fab filled with all those colourful mediums. And it helped you find something - serendipity! Minxy has done a new room reveal for her WOYWW (spit spit) and really, she has hundreds of these baskets. Jealous I am!! Love the new stamps -isn't brolly man actually CHaplain? I dunno.
ooooh I just love those paints yummy
I saw that brolly man on some random American blog I stumbled across, I hadn't realised it was Mr Tim of Holtz.. I'm sorry I'm gonna be the one to say it - I'd quite like that stand full of cakes personally! Maybe a combination of the two? I also really need to know do you genuinely work on the floor or do u sit on the floor n work on your lap?!
I soooo want one of those cake stands but where to put it?? No room! Your new Timmy stamps are nice - I bet they will be useful!
Hugs,
Cardarian
I've seen so many cakestands last week (my eye really fell at them after visiting your blog).
And that tag is so lovely!
Have a nice day
** Evi **
Brolly Man is cool. I love black and white.
Oh. Dur. Cake stand. I couldn't figure out what all of those were that I've been seeing on desks. I am totally going to go to get one of those guys now that I know what it is!
Amy
I'd love one of those cakes!! Great snoop,
Jo x
I love all your goodies in your cake stand, looks much tidier than mine!

Don't make it look too yummy or Minxy will be wanting it back, he, he. Fab space - love it - and I have the statutory dirty water, too - along with a bottle of clean water for refilling but I always forget it's there - duh! My bathroom is downstairs so it's a trek to change it. Lovely to see more of your stash. My meltpot is in much the same state... sigh.
Love yr Cake stand I also have one and it's invaleuble it's a must have just like the TH Stamps love them too
Love Dawn xx

I love that you put your paints in the cake stand. Wish I had something cool like that to put my paints in. I just have them standing on a dresser.
Fabby cake stand!! Thanks for popping by my desk x x
What a wonderful use of a tiered wire fruit basket full of crafting supplies! Have to remember this one.
The cake stand is looking great, have a fab week x
I keep changing what I have in my cake stand. I am also considering purchasing brolly man - I don't know what he is called either. Love the mannequin (I love all dressmaking things) downloaded the template too, thanks for the link, that site looks very useful.

Those stamps look good, may have to investigate further!

Oh Helen. That dust gladdens my heart no end. You can write your name in the dust on my telly *g* I've still yet to use my melt pot. I do want to - just scared with the Ruby monster running round. Will hopefully get to play when she starts nursery in September.

Wow . . .great work and nicely organised!
You know what they say ... you can never have too many pots of matte medium :0) Okay Okay ... so they don't say that ... but I bet somebody somewhere does :0)
you certainly managed to fit enough in it.. now you'll have more floor space to play with lol
WOW i love the cake stand even more now uits got goodies to play with on it. Shame its not cakes. Thanks for popping by my blog, Hazelxox
Those cake stands are brilliant ...I wonder how many are used for cakes lol. Are there two sets of TH with umbrella man ...or am I just going mad .
Lots of goodies in the cake stand now...yummeeee!
