So my desk looks like a tornado hit it. I'd show pictures, but nope, not going to this time. Just picture about five a six projects mostly done and all the accompanying supplies for all those projects spread out. I think I'm down to 8" of workspace now.

Don’t Reinvent the Wheel
Do you remember this Christmas card from December? I know, black and gold for Christmas, crazy combo, but it works. This card turned out very elegant.
