Well, even if you did, ya done did good!<br /><br />About the carousel... the damn cats will knock it off the back of the desk. Just saying. I have wondered if the little drawers are worth it or too frustrating to use.

Would make a great sympathy card, will have to try it, not got the same stamp but sure I can find something!<br />Desk storage - I have a spotty circular caddy, stiffened fabric with a large central compartment & pockets all around the outside. It doesn't rotate by itself BUT it sits on top of my Martha Stewart circle cutter which acts as a 'lazy Susan' and lets me spin to my hearts content! I have all my scissors 4-5 pairs, 3 rulers, about 6-7 reels of different tape, photo glue, sticky pads, pokey tools, pens, craft knives, embossing tools and loads more oddities in there<br />What I really like is that the pockets expand,& it has a carry handle so I can grab it & go to classes!<br />Sorry, long post!<br />Hugs<br />Debs xDebs Willishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17134725182120057815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6641751363324030551.post-77974744502688786172014-06-19T08:56:41.163+01:002014-06-19T08:56:41.163+01:00Super card, Di - I agree with Len (although I don&...Super card, Di - I agree with Len (although I don't buy cards in a shop - lol!).

Trying again ... <br /><br />I really like your OLC, Di! It invokes a person sitting there thinking of another with a letter just laid back down on the corner of the desk. Sometimes the simplest images have a great impact. It's a winner in my eyes!!<br /><br />That fancy-smancy carousel looks amazing. I have a small carousel for the must-haves and you've seen it always in the WOYWW photos. This guy looks much neater with the drawers. I love little drawers. Still, it's a brilliant idea to ask for reviews from folks who actually own one of these.<br /><br />Have a great week! (I'm so happy to hear that Spike has a friend!)
