What’s on your Workdesk? Wednesday

I had several comments on the oval frame I have on my wall.  This is one of my favorite things and it may have been a mirror at some time.  I purchased it in it’s current condition at an auction for next to nothing and several people asked me if I was going to refinish it.  I said no way, I loved it just the way it was.  I use old dishes and milk glass to hold my tools, pens, markers and the like.  I have 8 nieces and nephews, all who are under 6 years old, so I used this little desk to create a craft area for them when they come see me, which is often since my brother and sister live in the same town as I do.  Enjoy everyone!
P.S.  That is my BFF under the desk.  He always hangs out with me when I am working.  He is a Basset Hound and his name is Flash, because you know how fast basset hounds are ;) (not really).

  4. I love Flash and I like the name, I have a friend with a Basset so I understand perfectly! Great room and I love your storage ideas too, very pretty. Love the idea of a little crafting desk for the kiddos, hook them young!

  5. As I was admiring all your lovely pieces and all the super vignettes you have around your space, I had to stop and do a triple take on the platter under and to the left of the mirror frame. When I first saw it, I swear, I thought it was crackers, fruit, and cheese, with black olives in the center bowl. OK, I may be hungry, but I swear, it looked like a party platter.

    I admire your lovely space, would never touch the frame, and adore the little desk you have created for the little ones. A good way to watch them, and have them learn and appreciate art at the same time.

    Flash is adorable, too. Bet he would beat Bleubeard in a footrace (grin).

  10. How lovely, the old crocks lend a real unique look to your workspace (which remains very tidy, I must say!) and how sweet that the children have a real 'desk'' to craft at!
