So this is what WASon my workdesk, and I couldn't show it before--Altered Pages is starting
up a monthly challenge, Alter Your Creativity, and the first challenge is to
create a headdress. Mine is a headdress for Mnemosyne, goddess of memory,
and mother of the nine muses--there is a medallion made from inchie images
representing each of the muses. In the other pic at the AP blog you can see
the other side, with old movie film trailing down the back, as well.
For the utterly shameless part--if you would kindly click on this linky
HERE, and vote for me, (it's in the sidebar), then I won't be the giant goof
that no one voted for. **sigh**
It's like I'm having a teenage flashback, with those awful feelings of
UGH, everyone is going to think I'm ugly/stupid/goofy (fill in the blank
with your particular insecurity).
Where is that even coming from? Good grief!
All ranting aside, Happy WOYWW to you! As usual, I'll be around
tonight for my weekly, worldwide blog snoop with you. Pretty sure I got
around to everyone who commented last week--will double check
that first . . . see you later!
PS--Thanks to my WOYWW friends, my headdress has some votes now,
so I can breath a huge sigh of relief!

I love how you alter things so easily Trisha, and your creativity is endless. This is an amazing headdress, reminds me of a turban in some ways. Great medallions and pearls.

Trisha - this is just too darn sweet! I love that you used a goddess as your muse!
Trisha, that is so intricate! Really beautiful!! And I need to check out this Goddess of memory, I can't seem to remember anything lately!!!

Looks like a fun project. x Jo
It really was!

What an unusual challenge ! Great fun & very thoughtfully planned ! Ali #53
It is a different challenge--I think that's what they're going to try and continue to do with future challenges, is to make them different from what we usually see.
:)
Me again.
Thanks for sharing your work space and have a great and creative end to the week. Happy WOYWW.

Hi Trisha - you got my vote!! I love the cute pose of the doll wearing your pretty headdress - great and unusual challenge! Thanks for popping by. Happy WOYWW to you from Helen 102
What Roni isn't telling you is that her headdress is AWESOME and that you will probably want to vote for her when you get there, so don't promise yourself to me prematurely!!!
:)
oh such patience to alter this little headpiece! Love all those pretty beads!
You really are nuts hun! I love it, although she looks a little sad considreing she is wearing such a lovely head dress :(
Thanks for visiting the pony girl 06...well soon to be 6!
I voted for you and when i go to walk her to school tomorrow and read her the comments on her post, we will vote for you on my daughters url.
She DOES look sad, doesn't she? It doesn't seem like this would have made a very good child's toy, does it?
Well thank you so VERY much!
:)
You are winning! am i allowed to tell you that? I said the same thing to Julie about my WOYWW post. That my desk is there, but I had shameless self promotion of my publishing first :(
I was glad she didn't kick me out!!
xxD
Very fancy and so creative! Thanks for stopping by my blog1 Have a great week.
No way! Well, it's because of wonderful woywwers, certainly. No need for winning, I just didn't want to have NO votes at all, ugh!!!!
Big sigh of relief . . .
Amazing, Trisha! Thanks for coming to visit me and have a wonderful week!! Darnell #132

That is one awesome headdress! Love all the neat details, Trisha.
Shameless is just fine around these parts!! Awesome piece of work..I didn't even know there was a goddess of memory, I sure wish she could visit here! Amazing piece - what on earth will you do with it?
Wow--I love this headdress! Oh my goodness, how I need a goddess of memory! I will figure out how to vote for you. Best of luck! And thanks for visiting me! Happy WOYWW! Sandy Leigh #36
What an amazing headdress. Such creativity. Thanks for your comments. Now I might show an actual project on my desk next time rather than just a mess!!
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I'm still trying to make the rounds, determined to see ALL before next WOWW. Your headress is amazing!
Krisha #30
I shouldn't laugh, but that is so me--ohmigawd! What if no one picks me! It is like junior high school ALL OVER AGAIN! eek! Love the headdress. It is just so fun and different and creative. It totally rocks and what a fun challenge. Thanks for sharing.
Oh wow, Krisha, I always feel like I'm doing good to make it through HALF the list!!!
Hi there that's amazing I am off to vote after this. The doll is gorgeous as well. I always feel that I am useless, ugly etc!!! Thanks for visiting me. Anne x #149
Good luck Trisha!Tamika#137
I love the head dress, very creative! Good luck! Thanks for your kind comments re my knitting. Really, it looks much harder than it is. There are only two colours per row, (that is traditional fair isle), and I love playing with the different colours. Happy late WOYWW!
Hi there Trisha well we never know what we will find on WOYWW do we - headdresses reminiscent of the roaring twenties! Mm time capsule indeed! Don't think you need to panic you have lots of votes. Thanks so much for popping over and thanks for sharing ~ happy WOYWW! Shaz in Oz. x #35
Would make a cute halo for an angel too! :)
What a fun project. Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier this week!
Beautiful headdress, gorgeous and I'm sure you will have loads and loads of votes. Happy Woyww :-) Kerry x
I love the headress Trisha, and your bit of classical imagery. I guess she must be the person we get the word mnemonic from. I love the way you have represented the muses,
