I started out to auction and antique sales for finding things to sell to pay medical bills. Then I got involved with mixed media art and starting finding the not so good things for my art that could be reused or recycled, instead of dumpstered.
Now, I love old cuttter quilts, watches, game pieces, flea markets, garage sales, and thrift stores are the best!

This is my first year for the Texas event but I look forward very much. I will be looking you up. I also just got my first Junkin Magazine yesterday!

Re: Sometimes it's ok to break a dish (or two)...

I am like you when you started , I have a binful of china to break up and use, but have not started it yet.

Your projects are awesome. I would say you are a master at it and can do whatever your desire. Of course, I adore the dragonfly as that is ME! Your tables and cabinet are wonderful. Thanks for the idea of the beach ball. And I have a bowling ball just sitting in my garden waiting to get done.

Many thanks for the ideas and prodge to get me going!

Re: What do you do with a bedspring, fabric and shuffle board puck? Make an Art Doll of course!

What a fabulous idea to do with a bedspring! I collect them too!

Re: June Floral of the Month

Okey, I am looking for a crate! We have many casters on hand from trying to keep our ottoman rolling and moveable! Great Idea for the Daisies, they are one of my favorite flowers and I DO collect bottles; beer, soda, wine, olive oil, any kind!

It would also be a nice way to root my chocolate and peppermint
I grow, Just pluck off a leaf for your mojoto, or tea and when it roots,you have plants for more, they duplicate all over very fast, so be ready to share it with your friends!

Re: It's a Salad Spinner

This is really a fabulous idea, who'da thought? I will have to look for the metal more when I am out and about. I like the universal ideas of salads and candy, how about a jewelry display in the bowls and keep the tuba flowers vase always in anything? How about maybe even a lace and ribbon organizer also? Let's keep thinking!

smiles, Cyndi

Re: Simple Piano Roll Projects

These are Awesome Ideas Candy, Who'da thought?

Re: Organize Your Desk with Dominoes

I have several sets of dominos that are new. Do you know how to grunge them to look old and used?

Many thanks, Cyndi

Re: How to Contain Your Art Supplies

Sue,

Your inventive ways never cease to amaze. I wish I lived closer to all these chickie items you use! I know I need to do more outdoor flea markets. IT was an honor to have met you in Texas and I don't call that a flea Market! WOW!

Your descriptions are over the top! I am in desperate need of room. I thik I need a barn to work in. But, my little workrooms are full and I need these space organizers more than you ever know!

Thanks for all the inspirations and ideas you share. I did have a ton of clear plastic shoe boxes. and I shall now open up my decorative tins to USE THEM!
Smiles, Cyndi
