Not much room for anything on my workspace today - for the very good (strike that - for the very annoying) reason that my TV has finally given up the ghost and won't work at all - so have to watch the portable tv from the bedroom on my computer footstool!
So now as well as needing (definately not just wanting) to save money for all the new stash that is being launched at the American CHA trade show later this week - I now have to find some money to buy a new TV! Where are those winning lottery numbers when you need them!
So as there is nothing to see on my craftspace today, here is another shot of the boxes of unmounted stamps (Paperartsy in the box on the left, apart from the Paperbag studios set at the back, and assorted ones in the box on the right)
The green object in front of the drawer unit is a storage box I got recently for a few quid and need to assemble soon.
If you have landed here, one of the few people on the planet that don't know why I am showing you piles of stash in a very untidy living room, check out Julia's place (The Stamping Ground) for about 150 other desks.... Have a great day!
(Edit) reading some of your comments early on, I may have given the impression I am going to CHA - I wish - it's trade only - but my wish list for when the new ranges are released is mega long.....

Ah, there's probably nothing to good on the t.v. anyway if your neck of the woods is like it is here - much more fun to live in a bubble and have moolah for CHA.
Have a great one...#8 again ;)
Sorry to hear about your TV, this time of year all the shows are ordinary anyway.
I sooo wish I could go to the CHA!!
Happy WOYWW

aw .. that isn't good hun.. so, here are the winning lottery numbers for this evening... 1, 5, 26, 45, 23, 18 So, we gonna have to split that winn two ways LOL
I am so sorry to hear about the TV going. At least you have a spare, even if it is an inconvenient portable. I'm sure you'll find a way to get another one soon.
Sorry I missed you last week. My time was simply not my own. At least I'm trying to make it up this week. I simply can't believe how many stamps you have. And I hope you'll show the storage box when it's finished. I'll bug you about it, too!! Happy WOYWW from #10.
Well let me tell you you are not the only one in need of a new tv - mine gave in on Sunday so I should be hunting for one although it wasn't in any of my financial plans! Lovely stash - so many Paperarty stamps - I love them but only have 2 sets!
good luck with the new TV!
Hugs,
Cardarian
What a great stash of stamps
I think everyone wishes they could go to CHA lol
hugs Nikki #43
great storage love the drawers, and sorry about your tv:( i have the winning lottery numbers here if you would like them! lol I also wish Iwas on my way to CHA sadly not this time.. but hopefully in the summer :)))
Hugs x
I too have a wish list as long as my arm for all the new goodies, it's a nightmare! Don't work too hard Helen.
Thanks for visiting me :D
Happy Wednesday

Hehe, everybody wants to go to CHA, all I can say is it's a good thing I am not going. I have absolutely no room for any more stuff!! I know I would buy lots of yummy goodies even if I didn't need it. My stuff already proves that fact...lol
It's always the way that these things give up when you least want them to isn't it? Hope you get your new telly soon.

Sorry about the tv... mine needs replacing too but hanging in there, those drawers look tantalising..mind if I have a peek or two and maybe a borrow too?? :D
Shaz in Oz.x #22 again!
Morning, sorry to hear your TV has gone to TV heaven. I am glad I cannot go to CHA as I would need to pay some real excess duty and my Bank Manager might be phoning me to curb my spendings on the other hand could offer me a loan. Cannot wait to see what comes out next week. Big Hugs. JO.xx *48*
Hi ya
sorry ya tv has gone kaput, much rather spend on crafty stash, wish i could go to the CHA,have great day, happy WOYWW, sue,x (30)
My boyfriend seems to be willing our TV to break just so he can get a 3D one! Although I'm not sure I like the idea of those silly glasses.
i'd love a rummage through your box of stamps please!
Sorry about your tv,don't feel bad,so far this year my tumble dryer,which shares my workspace with me has died and then 2 weeks ago my washing machine went!!!! Got washing machine repaired but not the tumble dryer,shame cos that was my excuse for nipping out to my workspace lol
Thanks for sharing

Sorry to hear your TV bit the dust. I can't work without the darn thing going in the background. I don't like silence. Thanks for a peak at all your stamps there. I am dreading the CHA launch! OMG I will be broke for the rest of the summer! Vickie #59
I'm convinced I'll win the lottery any day soon!!! LOL
When I do I'll make sure the tellie gets replaced....maybe even help with the stash wish list! ;)
We got to dream!
xoxo Sioux
Sorry to hear about your TV, but just think of all that extra time you could have to craft without one LOL!! Love the look of those stamps :)
Have a great WOYWW,
Karen #84
I am worried you might be living in your shed soon - especially after CHA. Hope you find a TV soon - maybe a good 2nd hand one in the paper!
Sarah
Great storage. :)
Thank you for sharing. Have a great Woyww!

i cannot remember the last time I watched TV - but I do enjoy Radio 4, interesting workspace.
I have a TV on the wall and sometimes that decides it doesn't want to work, so I switch to the lap top, very useful things! Love all those draws, really want them
opened though|!!!
((Lyn)) Happy WOYWW #68
Have you noticed that everything breaks down at the worst possible time and usually all together? Still, at least you will have more time for crafting without a tv to watch. Have lots of fun at the CHA.
Forget the TV, spend it all at the CHA I say :) Love all those drawers and would just like the opportunity to rummage through those stamps! Elizabeth #60
To be honest I seem to watch only the BBC iplayer during the day - and listen to Radio a lot :) But *I* want those winning numbers so get in line... :)
Mary Anne
I'd love the winning lotto numbers to buy my own Craft Barn. So envious of your workspace and storage!
Well, we're back home processed and legal again for another 10 years! Can't believe you're after more new stash! You're going to have to get a lock up soon! I can't craft when the telly is on, can't do anything when it's on, it's too much of a distraction to me. If the voltage was right you could have our old Sony as we're just got our very first flat screen TV, about 10 year later than anyone else, but we don't watch it that much!

Sorry to hear about your tv - but just keep saving and pretty soon the new stuff will be arriving from CHA. Hopefully I will blog it all when I get back from Downtown.
Are you a Paperartsy fan also?
Don't worry about the tv - spend your money on new stash - you will have much more fun!!
Sorry to hear about your tv :( There is always something else that eats away at at craft stash cash!
Shaz x
There is always something else to spend your money on, tv or crafts mmmmm, decisions decisions lol. Must admit I have a long list from the new products being launched at CHA.
Bummer that your TV broke! Forget about saving for a new one, just buy lots of stash and you will be so busy, you won't even miss it.
Happy WOYWW

My wish list tends to be all T!m stuff and Bo bunny at the moment. I hate it when the tv goes on you. 120
Good luck with the TV situation.....but if it were craft supplies or TV, hmmm, I think I know what I'd choose!
Then again who knows what lovely new and improved items we'll see come out of CHA. You can always play with all those unmounted stamps! That would make for a nice day!
*smile*

I am VERY envious of all your PaperArtsy stamps!! (fairly new discovery for me...my collection is small, but is on the "to grow" list!)
Wow thats alot stamps - sorry your telly broken - have to listen to the radio like me - there never that much on telly ~ Nicky 17
Sorry about the TV. My son left behind his big flat screen when he moved to Australia; I never watch the thing. Such a waste.
Cheers,
CaroleB #135
It's so hard to live without a tv - wish I had one near my crafty desk. Hope you find your lottery ticket! Not to worry about CHA releases - T!m's stuff will be in staggered releases to soothe our budgets;-) Chin up chickie.

Ah, I love all the PaperArtsy stuff that you have there - great stash!!!
Helen pop over to my blog #11 - there's an award waiting for you.

Sorry about your TV... I stopped watching when I started crafting, I could only do one at a time. I am impressed you can do both.

Boxes and boxes of fun to be had. Enjoy.
Y'know my desk is the same this week, nothing to really show exept a card I made & then forgot to take a pic & tidied away! I would love a good root through all your boxes bet theres loads of goodies in them! :) Hope you get a TV sorted out! I know what you mean about the Lotto, your numbers never come up when you need them to! Anyhow if I win this week I will buy you a new TV! so there, you have at least 2 chances this week
