Happy WOYWW week 884 - 17 years old ... I am quite sure Julia never thought when she created this group that it would last so long,but thanks to her for starting it and thanks to Sarah for taking it on . We have seen each other through good times and bad over the years.
Sarah thought that it would be an idea to create an ATC to share on the desks this week without necessarily having a swap as we have in the past.
Sarah also suggested we try and find some atcs that we've received from Neet over the years, in her memory. I did find one, from 2024 - she called it "What's on your Wash-line Wednesday"
I do have more, but didn't have time to look them out -there is no organisation to the way I store things like this, they are just kept in envelopes all over the place, and I was supposed to be having my new boiler installed this week and didn't have time to hunt through places they may have been put...
The boiler hasn't actually BEEN installed this week as when the guy turned up Monday morning he took one look at the old boiler and said - "that's a 2-man job to get that off the wall, it's way too heavy for one" and then looked outside at the wall where the flue exits (one storey up obviously as I live in a first floor maisonette) and said "you'll need scaffolding for that; you need a health and safety assessment".
you may ask why this wasn't thought of at the time the first engineer took the photos to send to BGas before they rang the quote through with me..... yes indeed. me too.
So, I did get a bit of journalling done last week
Kew on Saturday saw the official opening of the Henry Moore: Monumental Art exhibition .... they are fantastic.. the blog shows lots of them and they have removed the barriers, although some still have ropes so you can't get right up to them (to discourage climbing I think )
these are some of my favourites..
sending you all love and good wishes for another year of WOYWW fun and friendship.

A lovely ATC and yes we have made such good friends through our WOYWW crafty sharing blog. Long may it last. I loved Neets washing line - so typically Neet,! Best of luck with your boiler - what a pain. Nothing ever goes smoothly any more does it. x x Jo 🌈
Super ATC Helen so too your journal page. Henry Moore is certainly interesting. Hugs Bj#7
Happy 17th WOYWW!! Thank you for all the fun and friendship over the past few years, long may it continue! Your ATC really sums up what we’ve all been feeling the past couple of weeks, of course we’ve been sad about Neet but so very grateful that we were friends for so long xx. I loved Neet’s atc too, so very her! Those Moore sculptures are amazing, trust you to get down for the low shot lol!!
Hugs LLJ 3 xx

It's difficult to believe Neet has really gone, she was so special to everyone. Love the ATC she made and yours too. Hope you managed to get back up okay Hee! Hee! Have a nice woyww, hugs Angela x10x
Im struggling to comment today. No idea why buying blogger decided to muck weirdly on iPad so I'm on my phone. 🙄 one finger type. 😂😂 love you shot of yourself taking photos and your two ATCs esp the WOYWW washing line, so Neet. ❤️
Praying they get their act together re boiler too. Shaz in Oz.x
You’re right Helen, I had no idea, but that sums up my life. I cherish the results though! Love your ATc for 17, I regret that I haven’t made time to make one, I may do so retrospectively….i would like to. We’ll see! Love the HM exhibits, not sure I realised quite how huge some of the pieces are. Blimey!
Love your ATC Helen and your Henry Moore photos. You really are committed to your art!! Happy Anniversary, love n hugs Cindyxx #11
Oh fantastic and the Henry Moore opening was amazing I bet. Hope your all sorted at home soon, boilers are so stressful I find when they don't work!

I love your journal pages and it was great to see all the Henry more sculptures. It’s outrageous that you get an estimate that doesn’t seem to take into account all the works, and lets you down on the installation date. Definitely worth a complaint. I hope it gets sorted soon

How sweet that you have that cute fairy with her waistline ATC from Neet. I love the pictures of the Henry Moore exhibit. Happy WOYWW!
Such a lovely ATC for the anniversary Helen - a great one from Neet as well. The Kew photos look cool! Stay safe and happy 17th WOYWW anniversary. Sarah
Great Anniversary ATC - and I love that one of Neet's. I went round a sculpture park this weekend - I love seeing the various exhibits. There was a Henry Moore - and a hare similar to the one in Chatsworth. Happy 17th!
