The Desk

This is my desk! :D Usually it's more messy, but I cleaned it before taking the picture :D , Anyhow, many of you may have been wondering how my desk look like and where do I blog. Well, my own notebook collapsed a moth ago, the Macbook is my sisters, so I'm using hers until I get my own. I've been using these small pink pliers for about a half year ( ever since I started beading! ), I got these yellow ones just two weeks ago....

Few days ago I got a new bead case from Mika, which she bought for me from Japan, I love it!
I also have a ''packing table'', where I pack and send out my lovelies. I think I have as much packing stuffs as a wholesaler has, hahah!
