My must haves! Blogtoberfest day 6.

Yesterday while having a look around my messy desk ( which by the way is still messy ) a few key items stood out to me, things I use on a daily basis, items I can't be creative without, things that must be at arms reach.

So today I'm going to share some of the things I must have on my desk because I need/use them every day.

Firstly is my roll of Vliesofix, I bought a roll which is only 30cm wide so it would be small enough to fit into my small space and if needed stand on my desk. I use it everyday, love this stuff!!!
Air Erasable Pen, great for tracing out all your patterns. I got caught on a weekend once when my pen ran out!!! OMG I nearly had a meltdown so now I always keep two on the go!
Scissors, you can never have enough! I'm quite anal about my scissors and the kids know not to touch......EVER!!! I have a pair of scissors for different jobs like, obviously the paper ones, scissors which I only use on Felt, fabric scissors, scissors for cutting my vliesofix, miscellaneous scissors and little ones everywhere for cutting threads. There are also some pinking shears and yes that is a pair of garden clippers......I use them for the stems on the pears!
Finally is upholstery weight thread........so super strong! I use this stuff for sewing on buttons and all sorts of things. It's a great time saver because you only have to do a couple of stitches and you know that it's not going to go anywhere.
What are the things you use on a daily basis?
Thanks for stopping by.
