What I did notice, is that you all like a good ol' snoop and a rummage. So, rather than show you my -still messy desk from last week, I thought you might like to have a nosey in one of my plastic containers that I keep my embellishments. I like to see what I have and at the same time, keep it free from all that dust! Know what I mean?
So, this is my miscellaneous metal box.
Still unopened...but I'm still waiting for that special project to use them on!! LOL.
I love these little metal letters on a ribbon.
Some really old stuff here. The little bracelet is from Primark and has lots of little charms - for £1.50! If it came from a scrapbook store, it would cost 3 times as much. The metal B is from an old Barbie bag. I'm waiting for a 'B' to join the family!! LOL.
I hope you have all enjoyed your rummage, now help yourself to as many chocolates as you like...just don't blame me for you messing up your work!
Toots for now and thank you so much for your visit.
PS. I don't know how to get my photos to enlarge. I would appreciate it if someone might be able to enlighten me please.
Have a good Wednesday and now hop over
to Julia's blog for a snoop at everyone else's desk. (Thanks for the tutorial Julia)!

If you get a 'spare' 5 minutes, you might want to check out my previous post where I - and 3 of my bestest friends in the whole wide world get together every few weeks for a day of fun and laughter. It's back to the 50's on this occasion.

OK, the link thingy - type into your blog what you want to say..probably in this case...
Julia's blog Stamping Ground.
RIGHT click and highlight this. Then click on the green world with a chain link image in the tool bar. This pops open a link box - type in the whole url of the site you wanna link to (or copy and paste). Select OK. Done..it's highlighted in your text and is a live link. Easy.
As for your metal collection - good grief...I KNEW it would feature Angels...I think it's time you used some, huh? Easy for me to say!!

Wow you really like metal stash!
funnily enough I was thinking of Darcy too, I think we are kindred spirits, the cobwebs, the pumpkins, the same sense of humour... its good to know there is someone on my wavelength out there :)
wow, it's a regular treasure chest!!
wow what an amazing treasur chest! why is it that other people's boxes are far more interesting than our own lol
Thanks for popping by and leaving comments, let me know if you have a go at the cheesecake, it really was very yummy. My OH said it wasn't limey enough though...not sure how to rectify that, i think limes just aren't that strong a flavour. Maybe adding lemon aswell would zing it up.
Thanks for the rummage through your metal bits, lots of fabby things there and some really unusual stuff! Thanks for the chocolate, much appreciated.
Oooh thank you for satisfying the urge to snoop and rummage - just that one box provides hours of potential stroking potential, lots of gorgeous stash!
Excellent snoop :o) sooo much stash. Love the words attached to ribbon!
As for a holiday, oh how I'd love to come over and go through all your goodies lol.
xox
OH! Love all these goodies and have had a wonderful snoop!
lovely stash, and what a bargain! thanks for sharing your drawer!
Missed you last week , so hi from me. Love your box of bits.
Oood I'm so jealous. I never have many embellish ments - too expensive and I just don't know how to use them. I'm quit a 'clean lines' scrapper and I can never get that gorgeous 'randomly scattered'look right that so people manage.
Have you got any Crunchies left?
It looks like you have lots of fun stuff going on here Glen! I think your a bit of a collector of all things crafty like me
Can I come and play ?!!
Hugs Susie xx
Hi Glen, welcome to WOYWW it's totally addictive as we women do like to make sure we are not missing out on anything!!! lots of lovely stash there just waiting to be played with. You should be able to put your dumper picture in your sidebar, it adjusts itself!! like the glitter girls, I don't do difficult!! hope that helps if not let me know, Happy Crafting, Sue xx
Hi Glen, on your blog go to layout, then Add a gadget, pick HTML/Java Script once this opens copy and paste the HTML coding for Dumper into box,
hope this is ok, just gone through the motions with mine so it should!!, ooh hope it works, fingers crossed! Sue xx
Gosh, you have the best'est box of metal stash ever! Sometimes I hate living in Norway, allthough we have lots of scrapbook stores here, there are still tons of stuff we can't get here. Feels like livig in the outback somewhere. Thank God for paypal and internet-shopping! lol
I love your pictures on the last blog, even my hubby had to take a look and was impressed by your dresses and icecream!

Oooo I'm love all the lovely metal embellishments you have, I may just have to head to ebay and buy some myself. Oh and you're a tease with those chocolates! Now I want some lol xx
Hi Glen, I have just had a go myself and put a new piccie on mine and it came out large too, so I compared the html coding with the other one on my blog and got totally confuzzed!!!ha ha, my hubby is a html geek, so when he comes home tonight I will see if he can't crack the code and re-size it for you, Have a Happy day Crafting, Sue xx
