Let’s make this a writerblr story-sharing moment. Show me what you’re building.

In 1685, the master cabinetmaker Alexandre-Jean Oppenordt received a commission from Louis XIV for 2 desks for his small rooms, which were situated behind the Hall of Mirrors. The desks were sumptuously finished with première partie marquetry, brass plaques, red tortoiseshell, and monograms of the King’s ciphers. One of these magnificent desks now stands on show at The Met, whilst the other, after passing through various fabulous hands in Europe, was repatriated back to France, being having been classified as a National Treasure. After a long and careful restoration, the desk today proudly stands in the Salon de l’Abondance, back home in Versailles.

My writing window at Mustarinda Residency in April

Discovery Waypoint | N 44º 24′ 56.1″ W 110º 34′ 43.1″ Old Faithful Writing Desk—1911 oak-partner writing desk and lamp on 2nd floor balcony of the Old Faithful Inn. A 1929 furniture inventory listed some of the attractive oak-partner writing desks that are still in service today. Each desk has a green stained glass lampshade with copper overlay in the shape of pine trees and an owl with a privacy screen above. The Old Faithful Inn is a hotel located in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, with a view of the Old Faithful Geyser. The Inn has a multi-story log lobby, flanked by long frame wings containing guest rooms. With its log and limb lobby and massive (500-ton, 85-foot) stone fireplace, the inn is an example of the "Golden Age" of rustic resort architecture, a style which is also known as National Park Service Rustic. It is rare in that it is one of the few log hotels still standing in the United States, and was the first of the great park lodges of the American west. Initial construction was carried out over the winter of 1903-1904, largely using locally obtained materials including lodgepole pine and rhyolite stone. When the Old Faithful Inn first opened in the spring of 1904, it boasted electric lights and steam heat. The structure is the largest log hotel in the world; possibly even the largest log building in the world. The Inn, which was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987. Old Faithful Inn is a member of Historic Hotels of America, the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. . . https://www.fmgphoto.com/Feature-Special-Galleries/n-W7xDfN/Yellowstone/i-WzPbJSB/A https://followingmygps.com/yellowstone-national-park/ . . . #rusticfurniture #OldFaithfulInn #YellowstoneNationalPark #Yellowstone #NationalPark #Parkitecture #writingdesk #findyourpark #goparks #YNP #yellowstoneforever #nationalparkservicerustic #discoveramerica #travelpics #travellife #travelinspiration #travelblog #travelphotography #fmgphoto #followingmygps #travelphotography #traveller #photography #travelamerica #lifestyle #LifeWellLived #travelmagazine #roadtripping #exploring #roadtrip (at Old Faithful Inn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CHnlVAnMb6_/?igshid=c3e0m3u9ocmf

“Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.”

I added a funny little lamp to my writing corner. I change the color depending on my mood. #writingcorner #writingdesk https://www.instagram.com/p/B6te8LDgrYo/?igshid=14i5oh4ccrr04

Another picture of my desk while I‘m trying to be creative. I love my art stuff especially my faber castell pencils. I can create wonderful things with this stuff and really can do this, I think that I can create something unique.
