Recycled Lunchbox into a New Year's Eve Centerpiece
I've been meaning to do something with this luchbox. Why not a centerpiece?
Time to JUNK build - part 2
I had to clean out my shed this fall. No more talking, just doing! If I had time, I would have set all of this up with beverages, treats and all. But as usual, I am way behind schedule.
Have a seat...JACK
This will be so much fun to decorate for fall. Gourds and Indian corn in the bottom box, and a plain pumkin on the seat. I couldn't find any of that yet.
Old window wells REPURPOSED!
This project turned out just as I had visioned. I have the best hubby. I wish we could have found an old wooden sign to make the top out of, then it would be uber awesome.
Easy as pie
I love to build bird feeders. I feed the birds all year long, and it's fun to have different feeders to look at out the window. These will probably get sold though.
"Good Wishes"
I love putting together vignettes. This will last for about a month, if that long, and then I'll change it. I can't leave anything in the same place for very long.
Time to JUNK build
Finally, I am back out in the wood shop, woohoo! It has been a long winter. We still have lots of snow, but I have to get my lazy winter butt busy for the summer shop season.
Christmas ornament - REPURPOSED
I found these ornaments for 75% off this week. As I was walking out, a lady said, "Oh, you got some new Christmas decorations." I wanted to say, "Oh, honey, you have NO idea what I am going to do...
GAME ON...10 min. project
Is is super cold up here, -20, so it's time for projects. This is just a fast, fun project. I am going to make a checker table out of the rest of the board. Nothing goes to waste up here.
Old door is for the birds!
I feed the birds all year, but winter is my favorite time. I get all kinds, but watching the grosbeaks is so fun, they are beautiful. I also have a pair of pileated woodpeckers that come and visit...
"JUNKY" JACKS
We just bought a load of junk, and decided to use some of it to display our jack-o-lanterns. We had lots of help from our Grandkids, and I think they turned out perfect. How are you displaying your...
"Farm Junk" Repurposed
I just spent a few days with my Dad on our family farm. We had way too much fun. He taught me how to weld. I welded the scarecrow frame from rebar. We took apart an old field disc that he no longer...
Patina or Dirt???
I love "the old patina", but hate dirt. Have you heard of the Hantavirus? We know of someone who died from it. You get it from mouse droppings. Everything old and dirty should be washed before you...
Rusty Chick Protector Still Works
My mom (Dana) brought this chick protector to my house to see if it would fit on my large metal urn....as it did!!! Thanks for not selling it mom! I put my concrete dove under it and I...
GIANT Flower Frog - REPURPOSED
I found this giant flower frog at "The Barn Chics" sale, and had to have it. They have an amazing barn and wonderful goods. Diane is so fun to visit with.
Do YOU Have A STASH??? Let's have fun!
After the tree went out yesterday, I had to venture out to my cold buildings and find my "STASH" to fill my sleigh for winter. I love old wheels, and the old shoe repair stands. DO YOU HAVE A...
10 MINUTE PROJECT.....BEMIS FLOUR BAG
I must add that this is a 10 MINUTE PROJECT - after you stand at a farm auction in the pouring rain for hours, and then wash the bags three times, they were so gross! dana
Junkin' is the "SPICE" of life!
I have been hoarding a box full of spice cans for almost a year now. Well, today, no more! I thought they would make a great frame for a chalkboard, so fun. Now, what to do with the rest of them??? I...

MORE - "JUNKY" IDEAS...
Ok, so I am crazy for junk, and I used the word "old" too many times, but that's all I have is "old junk".
Farm Junk Recycled
I just love old farm junk. I wish I had a covered porch, it's hard to decorate outside up here when we get 10+ feet of snow!
Tis' the Season to be "JUNKY" Fa La La La La.......
I still have so much to do, but it's a start. I love the little elf, I think there were 3 of them, but this is the only one that survived. Every year I am going to get rid of things, and then I get...

I gave my Dad "JUNK" for Father's Day!

Welcome Diane! I'm so happy I could talk you into joining. It's so fun to make new junking friends and see what everyone else is doing. I love your wash tub. Sooo cute! I really like the huge snowflake as well. It was so nice to meet you at my sale. I hope to get up to your house and see all the wonderful things you've done too. P.S. The snowshoe looks darling in your display. Take care-Krista

Re: I'VE BEEN FRAMED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love it! We made one similar with a chunky old frame and painted it all cream. A young woman bought it for her bathroom. I love how you left your frame original.

I love the wheel project! I have been hunting for them and I haven't found any yet, bummer. It's just charming. By the way- when I hung my sled I used a chain and just screwed hooks into the ceiling beams. I just decorated it for winter- you should do it! I look forward to your posts- Krista
