Photo Friday WORK: TABLES & DESKS
How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself.

We have always had old oak desks in our home. Too many, it seemed for little spaces. But I've always loved them with their nicks and scratches, swirly and checked wood grain and dove-tail workmanship. Sturdy little keys, still not lost, fitting into sweet little keyholes - locks that still work!

My old oak desk is unreasonably big, maybe, but perfect for working on large projects; several at once or just my big messes in general.

This is a lovely collection of desktops and work spaces, and the work and artwork thereon.
ReplyDeleteI love the photo of the tail gate image best of all, though, because it is a work space that doesn't often come to mind, but yet it carries so many memories of work. Well, particularly bark dust.
Wonderful art work and desk ♥ The drawing of the girl with red hair and freckles could be my 11 year old daughter!
