What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday – celebrating 900!

September 2, 2026 By Marit 6 Comments

It is a workday for me today, but I absolutely wanted to celebrate the fact that WOYWW is online for the 900th time. What’s On Your Workdesk Wednesday is an event I was involved with for years; an event I sometimes miss but for which I barely find time anymore due to my job and other commitments.

However, in some way you may call my job ‘creative’ too (I work in the restoration studio of the Zeeuws Archief ), ’cause I handle all sorts of paper all day long and today there is something interesting on my desk.

WOYWW #900

It will take some time *grin* to smoothen and repair the paper so that the public can handle this book again, but page by page I will get there….

Thanks for stopping by and uhrm, ladies: congratulations on this 900th anniversary!

(I hope to be able to visit your blogs too in the next days, see ya!)

    Marit! It’s so lovely to see you on the list again, thanks for stopping by. Wow, that book looks like it’s way beyond repairing, you’ll have to show us it again after you’ve wrought your magic touch!
    Happy 900th WOYWW!
    Hugs LLJ 5 xx

    Happy Week 900 WOYWW!
    Oh wow. That pile o’paper makes me long to riffle the page. A big no no, I know but still. What a massive job it will be but I bet a labor of love. Enjoy. Mush scroll about and see the latest Chronicles – do you still do them? My favourite part of my visits to your desk.

    Happy to see you for 900, maybe see you for 1000…?

    Happy 900th WOYWW! Like you I haven’t joined in with this in ages as I don’t do much in the way of crafting other than the occasional card and my diary style journal. Lovely to hear your news… what a challenge that book is going to be! With love & God Bless, Caro xx #19
