WOYWW 138 - {neon} UTEE, hair and tan???

 Do you want to play along with other desk divas? They don't muck about! Pop on over to the Queen of desks, Julia's blog to see the rules. Share a few pics and visit the others playing this week, you're sure to be inspired, amazed and probably horrified at the desks on display. It's fun being proper nosey mid week!
This weekend, as you can see from my last post, it was brainstorming for 3 days with Lin to get the ArtsyCrafts ideas flowing.....but late Sunday evening Miss 17 arrived to create with her arty friend Lilly, and they were on a mega UTEE mission. Bissfully unaware that Lin and I had moved about 36 boxes to get to the meltpot box in the back bottom corner of the shed! Teeneagers huh. Raving about all things Suze, Courtney duly gave Lilly a crash course in UTEE fondue options.
So when I went out to the desk this morning...yes MY desk had been invaded by the overflow from her experimentation from her desk....
I think they have dipped fresh flowers, and wire wrapped them....but I can't be sure.....
 For me it's more mega rubber trimming this week, but I am really looking forward to deliveries arriving later this week with new goodies ready for the new show at Bluewater 'glow' exhibition arena....cracks me up that name.....I imagine I shall be demoing looking like a luminous beacon..... I live in towieville's own Brentwood, perhaps if I pop into Amy Childs salon I can get a neon styley fake tan that glows in the dark or something.....

Thump back to reality....we have paint bottling ahead of us too....that should keep me, the elves and Lynne (aka Cheryl/@bodgerbird) busy. I wonder what colour Cheryl's hair is now...we bunked work on Monday to go to the trade hair/nail supply warehouse.....she 'advised' me on professional colour options....is this wise to attempt pre-Bluewater .....maybe I will end up neon after all!!!

Watch this space!

LOL! You turn your back for two seconds and looks what happens! Looks like colourful fun though!
Looking forward to trying out my new Portfolio pastels when they arrive and a couple of fresco paints might have accidentally fallen into my basket at checkout -oops! Well I've been itching to try them LOL!
Hope the rubber cutting goes well!

Blimey! Cool. Love the beads - am I misremembering? Are beads, esp. dipped beads, kinda something you excel at? I have this vague memory...

Happy WOYWW!

Quite the interesting project happening there. Happy rubber cutting. I truly find that a tedious thing myself.

You don't have time to bunk work!!! Is it you leading Cheryl astray or Cheryl leading you????? Me thinks it's probably the first option.

Courtney and Lilly certainly had a fun time and dipped everything in sight. I'd love a penny for every time Lily said OMG!!

I think a glow in the dark look will be entirely suitable, then you can just keep demoing when they turn off the lights! I likethegorlsdipped and wrapped flowers...more I like that you didn't throw one when they downed tools and left you to put away, very cool L!

JoZart Designs said...

That's rather a nice shade there on the background of the Misses experiments...... what do you reckon to a few cerise streaks in those golden locks?
Sounds like there will be magic afoot soon if you and LB are hatching up craft potions. Have fun,
