What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday #273

On my desk are 2 of my all time favorite cards...the pop up piano and the pocket watch. I'm settling in my re-designed craft room and so I've come across many projects I want to complete. The black and white altered gadget box houses trinkets, charms and mementos. 5 other  cards to be completed...a back to school card...and a thinking of you, I will complete them and line the envelopes.

Do you see the little crocheted booties? I made them some time ago and still don't know what to do with them.

I love black and white because of the impact of adding a bright and bold color design...pops out as a surprise.




Here's a shot of the desk end with a magnetic board and shelves. I picked up the white lazy Susan shelf at Good Will this morning. $.97, perfect for my sprays and applicators.

Notice the liqueur bottle...it was Gran Mariner, now it holds an orange cleaner "Goo Gone". I use the little sea sponge to dab sticky fingers and tools and it looks so cute and handy too.

I'll send this to my friend mourning a family loss. BTW...I used a black hot glue stick and gun to attach some elements to the altered boxes. I wanted to empty the rest of the loaded stick so I made dots swirling the hot glue around and lifting off to make another...after they cooled I added one to the flower and the other is an oval just resting on the envelope. 

Here's a picture of the pocket watch opened revealing a pocket to write a note. The piano card has a tab that pulls out for a special message...and there are 2 hot glue dots.

So that's what's on my desk...what's on your's?
