A Writing Desk and Wedding Tribute
by Lynne Perrella
Ancram, New York
Featured in Legacy - Winter '03

Here's a romantic way to display your family photos and memorabilia: Use them to decorate a writing desk. Artist Lynne Perrella not only used copies of her grandparents' wedding pictures to decoupage her desk, she also photocopied her family's linens, and used them as accents. Actual paper lace, doilies, old buttons, feathers, and paper roses gave the desk added dimension. As Lynne writes in her article, "I wanted the finished desk to have the essence of old, well-cared for linens: fresh and pristine but with the undeniable feeling of history." We think she succeeded, beautifully.
