Welcome to Crafting With Jack and What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday, a day when we link up to Sarah's Craftshed and have a look to see what everyone has been doing.
It’s now half past ten and breakfast (scrambled eggs) is finished and I am ready to start my blog. Last night I decided I would get up as soon as I awoke (not counting getting up at 3:45 for the loo!). It was ten past nine when I awoke! I don’t seem to wake up early in the winter months, okay I’ll admit it, it’s along time since I was awake earlier🤣 though I often am awake in the early hours and often go downstairs for a cuppa. I blame my husband as he doesn’t wake up early either. His grandmother used to get up at six every morning!
I can’t possible show my craft room, or maybe I can with just clearing the middle so I can display my latest goodies. I am constantly trying to squeeze a little more room in my craft space by reorganizing and frequently say things like “I had forgotten about that!”
On the left is a black book which my husband took the middle out of yesterday morning and I am putting my Christmas journal inside, so the cover has to be covered and the signatures sewn in, I might try holding them in with ribbons or twine instead. On the right is a box I was given “to do something with” and as it was on top of the Christmas box it came down with it. In the middle are my recent goodies. I don’t usually get lucky in sales, but I couldn’t resist these Tracy Easson stamps, a Woodware one and two Matt Tints. I also bought a mdf reindeer and sleigh which is waiting to be built up.

Hope you find a way to secure your Christmas journal pages in. I ought to make a bit of space in my living room (it's where my craft stuff lives too!) so I can feel a bit more Christmassy next week! Well done on the bargains. Happy WOYWW and merry Christmas xx Helen #2
I love the picture of you and your MIL. You look so happy!
Happy WOYWW and Christmas

People often give me stuff ‘to do something with’ as well! Some I keep but I’m quite good at giving what I won’t use straight to the charity shop, someone else can have the pleasure instead. It’ll be interesting to see how you fit your journal pages into the book cover, you’ll have to show us in the New Year!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and happy 2025,
