have taken over a table in the living room, and have to say, it's nice to be in
the center of things, and on a sturdy table, rather than one of those tray tables.
ANYWAY, here's what's on my workdesk:

Inks and bits from making a couple mini books, a set of Gothic Arch
Edgar Allan Poe atcs for a Vintage Photo Image ATC swap, and stamps
from making a birthday card for my dad.

This one is probably my favorite . . .

This is the one on the top of the pile there.
Will be around WOYWW visiting this evening, but now am off to
a viola lesson. (Good grief, I'm taking viola lessons, how did THAT happen?)
If you'd like to join in the WOYWW fun, stop by the wonderful
Miss Julia's for a look at the weekly festivities!

Viola lessons??? Awesome - you've got to tell the story of how that happened!! I fell into playing a brass instrument six years ago and haven't looked back. I used to play cello in a youth orchestra many years ago. We used to go on residential workshops and at one, I remember a viola player, Idris, pogoing like mad to The Sex Pistols at a disco (this was the late 70s!!) Happy days!
Hugs, LLJ #73 xx
I agree with LLJ, that is a story to tell...LOL! Love the ATCs. They are super cool for the upcoming Halloween holiday! Thanks so much for the peek! Have a happy WOYWW- Amanda #97
Hey, hey, Poe! Very cool!

Oh that Poe! And even more interesting to me is the fact that you get to take over spots in various rooms. Thanks for visiting me.
OHhhh, your table is very oldy wordly this week with the Poe AtC's!
Thanks for the kind comments. My room might have a lot of space but it is in the basement...doesn't have a window and DH calls it the dungeon.
He never comes down here so it can be a bit isolating.
Next house I want my room off the kitchen or in a loft overlooking the family room.
love your ATC, especially the gothic arch shape, it is just amazing! well done on the viola lessons, always good to learn a new craft!

Oh my you project is awesome! Seems we are all spreading our crafting areas out...soon it will be the whole house LOL!

I like your Gothio Arches. Haven't done any of those for a while. Good luck with your viola lessons. My brother in law plays voila in an orchestra. Happy WOYWW!
Loving those Poe ATC's, especially their moodiness and the shape - who knew you could have arch-shaped ATC's?! (well me clearly!) Looks like your desk is a really fun place to be. Hugs, Buttons #70

You have reminded me with those Edgar Alan Poe stamps that I used to quite like his work (must have been quite dark in my past!). Love the ATC in the arch shape and off not to check out your other piece too. Happy WOYWW, Anne x #77 and thank you for visiting me too.

Hi, Trisha -- those ATCs are very cool! Good luck with your viola lessons. My husband teaches music lessons and it's back to "school" time for him this week, too. Don't the arts just make life great? Happy WOYWW (and thanks for visiting & commenting over at my blog already.) ~ Laura #124
Love the roving desk! I had one of those last week! Lovely work :)
Hi Trisha!! Love those Poe photos!! Can't wait to see the finished project. I am making a birthday card for my dad too! His card will have a moose with a birch tree background. What will yours look like?? Virtual Hugs!!
EXCELLENT news, Samantha--the chocolate and Bailey's will be out and ready for them!
;)
My dad's had the Lost Coast Design's party cats!! But I didn't take a pic, oh well . . .

I can understand why you’re happy working on a ‘sturdy’ table and you have the added bonus of having a lot more space to fill with all your inks and stuff.
Thanks for stopping by this week and good luck in my Candy draw.
Happy Crafting!

I think viola lessons and Edgar go very well together. Great creative things happening on your desk.
Sandra
I don t think i did see it, Daniella, will have to stop by and see if i can find it!
:-)
Thanks for stopping by my desk earlier this week, i'm really behind with desk hopping! Looks like you have been busy! loving the designs x
Yay for graduating from a tray to a table! You must be very organized to be able to work on a small space like a tray. I tend to spread out and pile stuff EVERYWHERE!!
Happy WOYWW a little late this week!!
