WOYWW153!!

Good morning!!!
Bit ashamed of my desk this week........ I was missing in action doing craft stuff elsewhere last week, so my desk today looks exactly as it did ten days ago!!!!I'm going to rectify that this morning, but until then here is what it looks like..........
The remains of a painty session...what else!!!
The creation that was being made was this....
My Disco Diva chunky wood ATC!! Front angle so you can see my diva properly......
I made the wood base and all the extra bits 10 days ago, then took her to my crafty session and glued them all together there...... as you will see in the coming months....(!!!!!)
This was a show and tell piece, all about how paint can be used on different surfaces, i.e wood and metal. The ATC is wood, of course, but I wrapped it in foil tape around the edges to give me the embossed word to decorate....
(chipboard letters were stuck to the wood before the tape went on, then highlighted with a paper stump to get nice definition of the letters)
Her heart embellishments are metal....




As are the screw bolt feet......
Her most fabulous disco ball 'topper' is a door knob from B&Q...love it!!....
Really heavy glass, and it sparkles in the light...fab bargain at £3!!
So, why not pop over to the wondrous Julias place  and see everyone who has braved the 'show me your desk' today!!!!
Have a fabulous week everyone!!
Love Trish xxxx

    I am constantly amazed at the talent that exists out there in bloggy world. Fab chunky ATC (didn't know anything like that existed). Way beyond my confused mind, but I love to look at other people's creations. Happy WOYWW. Ali x #46

    Hi Trish. Thanks for popping to see me. I love your chunky ATC - is that the ATC before Fit Club! Love the fun colours of your DIVA - I didn't know this kind of ATC existed! I think I may have to nip to B&Q too. Happy WOYWW to you Helen 50

    I have never made an ATC never mind a chunky one. Yours is absolutely gorgeous and the knob on the top is amazing (and a great bargain too). Thanks for showing us. Anne #2

    this is the first chunkey ATC i have seen, it's fab, makes me rather frustrated as I haven't got time to play at the moment. i might have to raid the handyman's shed when he's not looking he he
