It looks great, and I love that all of the beautiful things in it are from your grandmother! It's wonderful! Marie

I love your halloween tree, it's too cute! I also LOVE your Corgie Fairy in your profile picture! I also have a corgi and just love him to death! Yours is adorable! Tried dressing mine up one Halloween and he bucked like a bronco until he got it off! OH WELL!! Wont' do that again... Welcome to Junkmarket! Marie

Wow, this is beautiful! It would have looked great with the branches, but this is fantastic! Very cool! Marie

Really neat! I love that huge spring, what a find that was! How did you get the saw blade dull enough so that it doesn't pose a problem as a table top? This is pretty amazing looking! Marie

What an amazing find, and a beautiful reuse. It's wonderful!! Marie

I have a love of old trunks too and I love this one! You're right, "down with traditional"! Words to live by! Marie

Oh my gosh , it's great! Love all the colors in it, love your concept sketch, and the old brushes.Very cool Marie

Awesome!! I absolutely LOVE it! Marie

Gailmarie, I'm just trying to keep you on your toes!! :) I agree with you, there are all kinds of seasonal things that I could do with this! I just got some cool fall leaf garland that I am going to try for now, and then I love the greens with bulbs idea! Thanks! And as for that snow -I love it as long as I'm inside looking out! Californians can barely drive in rain, imagine what a mess we could make with snow!?? Guess I'll stick to the stuff in the can...

Again, I love this guy! You always seen to capture just the right look on their little faces! Too cute!! Marie

Love them both! Lucky you to have such a talented friend, and to be in the right place at the right time! Marie

SO cute! I love it all! Marie

WOW. Just WOW. Marie :)

Holey Cow, that's a lota great stuff! I'm excited to see what comes of it!! Marie

Wow, that's amazing! What an amazing reuse! I would have never guessed what it was in it's previous life!! Marie

WowQ It's wonderful!! Marie

Adorable! I also make something similar, only mine are called "Memory Elephants". I Chose them because I collect them, but also because of the idea that an elephant never forgets! Your bears are absolutely beautiful, and because I KNOW how much work is involved in them, whatever you charge for them is NOT enough!! Thanks for sharing with us!

Very cool stuff! Marie

I really love this, what an eiciting find! You're right, I bet there are endless possibilities for this little beauty! Marie

These are beautiful, I'm gonna have to try some! I have tons of lace that is just waiting to get put to use! Thanks! Marie

HA! Would have loved to see how you talked your way out of that, especially since you were caught red handed! Hilarious! I really LOVE the box of letters though, and it would have been worth a trip to the "big house"! Marie

Very Cute! Lucky you to have a daughter who also loves vintage things! I am crazy about my daughters in law, but they are definitely not into vintage anything! DARN!! Welcome aboard! Can't wait to see more!! Marie

OH. oh, oh, as if the clocks weren't enough, then you throw in the curbside finds and it is almost to much to take! Amazing, amazing score! You hit the clock bonanza, and I know we are all thrilled for you, but definitely wishing we could run into something like that! WOW! Can't wait to see what you do with some of them!! We'll be on the edge of our seats, waitin!!!! Marie

This is cool, very unique! Marie

Everything you do is so elegant! I love the room divider and can certainly see why it was snapped up! These are really beautifully done! It's always such a treat to see what you'll do next! Marie

What a great idea! What ever did we do before we had chalk board paint?? Isn't it great?! Marie

OK, I'm off to go dig through my linen closet to find my old quilted pillow shams that haven't seen the outside of a closet in years! I knew I was saving them for a reason! These are too cute! Marie

Oh my gosh, I'm with you Midge! Those kinda guys are harder to come by than that cool old window!! Better hang on to them both!! Seriously, I love your display! Thanks for sharing! Marie

This looks good enough to eat, for sure! I LOVE the gear bowl, what an amazing score!! If it's any consolation Sue, we don't have 4 ft. of snow, but it's pouring rain, our power was out for 6 hours, and there are trees down everywhere here in sunny California! We apparently only have 2 seasons here now, summer and then immediately into winter. Spring and fall just don't happen anymore!! SO, I do feel your pain... Marie!

Aww, they just get better and better! I absolutely love this one, he (or she) has got the cutest expression! You do amazing work! Can't wait till the next one arrives!! marie

Too much fun to look at!! Must have been a blast to gather the stuff and put it all together!! Very cool!! Marie

Very cool idea!! Looks great! Marie

Very Cute! It is a great way to stash goodies out of sight! Marie

Nice! I think black is becoming the new "white"! It's really gorgeous! Marie

OOh, love it in black! This looks really beautiful! Marie

This looks so good! I love the buttons with the little silver rings, it looks so cute! What a great idea!!
Marie

What a steal! It's wonderful! Marie

Thank you all for your kind words! I was hesitant to even share this because I thought it might be a little to "junky", if that's possible! My husband and kids just shake their heads every time I come up with something I think is cool, so I never know what to think! But you all made me feel so good! I love being here with other people who just get it like I do!! Thanks!!

Oh, but it looks SO good! Thanks for "sticking" with it!! It's beautiful!! Marie

This looks amazing. We don't get much Fall color here in California, so this is such a treat! The shopping cart is the coolest thing, I would LOVE to find one of those! Beautiful!! Marie

Rocky ROCKS! He has great taste! The red metal box is really wonderful, I'm kind of a rusty metal lover myself! Thanks for sharing and of course, welcome to the absolute best site there is, you'll love it here! Marie

It a wonderful second life for beautiful old clock case! Nice save!! Marie

Those are certainly words for us all to live by! Love it! Marie

These are so fun, a great addition to every garden! Marie

Oh wow, these are SO wonderful! I've tried my hand at beading and jewelry making and I just don't have the knack. These are beautiful, and definitely my style! LOVE them! Marie

What a great idea! Thanks for sharing it with all of us! Marie

I love this, it puts all those buttons to the perfect use! Marie

Love it! I can picture flowers in the tub too, or I have one on my front porch with a small pond pump so that it makes the perfect trickling water sound. Great save on the roadside find!! Marie

He is so cute! I love his hair and can see why it was fun to do!! Another amazing creation! Marie

I think I'd have to MAKE time! Looks like a wonderful place to comtemplate what to do next!! Marie

Oh my gosh, amazing as usual! This is adorable!

PIeces of the past, I got one of mine on ebay for 30$. Have you checked there? Joann fabric has new ones - wait for a 50% off coupon and it isn't too pricey. In shops they cost an arm and a leg!! Marie

These are beautiful! LOVE the apron, it's almost too pretty to get messy! You are very talented! Marie

What a "sweet" find! Who couldn't use this? I'm also so ashamed of my spice cabinet and this is the perfect solution!LOVE it!! Marie

Gooness, these are fabulous! You two make quite a team! Love them all! Marie

It's the thrill of the hunt! We don't need any of it, but finding it is so much fun!!! Marie

I think I speak for many of us when I say that I could move right in and be very happy there!! Beautiful stuff!! Marie

Clever! I love them!! Marie

You found the perfect table to tile! The edging already there makes it look like it was made for tiling. It looks wonderful, you made it look like a million bucks! Nice work! Marie

Wow! Who wouldn't want to fall asleep there!? Tis is wonderful! Marie

This is an amazing gate! The spur as a gate latch is So cool,I've never seen anything like it! It's absolutely beautiful! Marie

I can't believe you microwaved her arms!! Hilarious! She is adorable, and luckily will never know what she went through to get where she is today!! Love your work!! Marie

What a fun table! I also have lots of this kind of artwork mixed in with my stuff at home, so I am very partial to this wild kind of art! It's fabulous, I LOVE it! Amazing to look at, but just as much fun to create! Can't wait to see more! Marie

Oh wow, this is right up my ally! I love, love. love it! It's perfect for potting or partying! I also love the little piece right next to it, that's a cool piece too! I'm guessing you have been really busy, but we have all missed your posts! This one is wonderful!! Marie

Oh my gosh I LOVE these! I'd love one to use as my water bottle at work! Nothing worse that trying to figure out which one at the lunch table is yours, giving up and having to do without! Wouldn't happen with these! What a great idea! Very, very creative idea! Marie

Lakelover69 - I'm with you - I ALWAYS worry about lead contamination, which is why I ALWAYs seal everything with several coats of clear varithane or poly before I ever use or display. I know that some really prefer the natural old look, as do I, but I can't risk inadvertantly making anyone sick. ESPECIALLY my precious little grandkids!

This is SO cool! I've been looking for something like this for my stairwell and have had NO luck, and you have found the perfect piece! It is really, really beautiful and I love all your goodies that make it so special! This is seriously spectacular! Marie

Wow! you have a ton of really cool stuff! Again, here I am in California, far, far away from all the fun... Marie

Ok, this is my favorite so far! I love her! I wish I had your imagination, your creations are amazing!! marie

That leather chair is to die for! Looks SO comfy! What a wonderful place you have! Marie

Functional art! I love it! Marie

We all need to slow down a little, what a great message! This is a really cool piece, thanks for sharing! Marie

I love this! What a beautiful piece of furniture! Marie

Very cool! Love the look it gives the concrete! Marie

Oh My Gosh, this is awesome! What a steal! I absolutey love it!! Don't you love that look you get when they just don't understand WHY you want something they find absolutely useless?! Marie

Really beautiful! Collage is harder than it looks! I've played with it, but believe me, noting I'd want to share! I have a huge appreciation for how difficult it is to make it look so easy!! Marie

Absolutey beautiful! Who in their right mind wouldn't love to have these!!? What an amazingly creative use for treasures. And the pictures - just too cute!!

Rusty Diva, we could have a GOOD time! There's plenty of rust to go around, and to have a partner in crime would be SO much fun! Then the guys at the scrap yard could make fun of you too! And of course if it isn't rusty when I find it, out in the yard it goes to be watered until it is!! Wish we lived closer, that's for sure!!

That's awesome! We once got to do that with an old church that was being torn down to make room for condos. We did all of our kitchen cabinets and a breakfast nook out of the lumber. We just used a grinder to bring up the grain and take off the grime and then sealed it. It was really beautiful! Lucky you! Marie

Congratulations! I KNOW you'll be a huge success! Your things are beautiful!

SIMPLY beautiful! Marie

GEORGOUS stuff! Wow, you are a very talented group! I love the beautiful little hand mirrors and the print of "Rosa" - What a transformation! Thanks for sharing your amazing creations, I SO wish I could have been there!! Amazing work! Marie

The base is really wonderful! What a great find! The shade with the crystals and the the fine wire - beautiful! Welcome to the site! Marie

Very fun finds. I love that your neighbors want to actually buy your mums, too cute!! Thanks for sharing your ideas with us! Marie

Beautiful! Marie

Oh my gosh, these are absolutely amazing! How fun must they be to put together and then stand back and enjoy! Thank you so much for sharing them with us!! Marie

That's it. I'm just gonna have to move! Marie :)

Oh, LOVE these! I see them occasionally too and was also trying to figure out something to do with them!! Brilliant! These would look mighty fine in the room I'm redoing now...What a great idea! Marie

I LOVE the roller skate as a wine bottle holder, that is SO cute!! I hope you sell tons of stuff! Let us know how it went! Marie

Ahhh, great minds!!! I also planted one of my son;s boots! It sits on my front porch full of asparagas fern! He left them here just a little too long, and VIOLA! It became a planter! Love yours!!! Marie

That is the most incredible find! I would have been so thrilled to find those tables, what a score! The plaid makes a beautiful statement on your wall, I absolutely love it! You are So lucky!! Marie

Too, too cute!! Marie

These are wonderful! I have several too that I've put together, and always get lots of compliments! I love all of yours and would hate to have to pick just one favorite!! Thanks so much for sharing them with us!! Marie

That is SO pretty! The reflection in the mirror is beautiful! Thanks for sharing! Marie

Wow! This is so amazing, and I bet it WAS painstaking! I would LOVE to have one of these in my classroom! Marie

Great stuff Kathy, and it sounds like you had a blast! Sure wish I lived closer!! I hope you did well!! Marie

These are SO cute! Isn't the Cricut amazing!? Everyone needs one!! Marie

These are so cool! I've seen them done of the whole U.S. but I love the individual Michigan theme! Must take an incredible amount of patience to create!! I love your work! Marie

These are great!! I love the way your mind works! These are 3 distinctly different styles and they are all amazing! WoW!! VERY inspirational!! Marie

Ya know what? You guys have just a little too much fun back there without the rest of us who live a million miles away! Thank goodness you let us live vicariously through your posts and blogs! Looks like SO much fun!! Marie

I love the show and tell idea! We could also bring one thing to give, and maybe draw names. I am just so excited that it's going to happen! Too soon to start packing??! Just kidding of course - kinda!! Marie

I'm a birdhouse lover too and had to smile when you talked about the wasps living in them! We have a huge wasp population here too and I always have to close up the opening for that same reason!! LOVE your collection! Marie

This is really a wonderful find, and the fact that he just tacked in on is great in case you do change your mind and make it a table! Sounds like you have a great place to shop! I love all your treasures!! Marie

I really like this! I am working on one (from a baby crib) to hang in the window of my workroom. I'm hoping it will work as a sort of privacy screen and catch all hanger for pictures, etc. just as yours does! Love that yours holds brushes too! Very cool as usual!! Marie

Are you serious!!? You are so unbelievably lucky! WOW!! Marie

This is GREAT! Very, very clever! Marie

Very Cute! I love the ties, the color of the wood, everything! Thanks for sharing! Marie

Way cute! I agree, not in a million years! Marie

Oh my gosh, these are SO cute! We get to witness the birth of the next generation of junkers! How great is that!?! I can't wait until my grandkids are old enough to start creating with me! Marie

What a wonderful post Sue! Friends have to be the best gift ever, all by themselves! I suggested the Junkers Reunion, and I was really serious! I'd go anywhere to make it happen! I'm so excited to think that it actually might! I may not sleep again until it becomes a reality!! YIPPEE!

I just came across this going through old posts so I don't know if you'll ever see this, but I LOVE what you do with old tools! Very creative way to display beautiful old well used pieces! Marie

In response to RickE1, I can appreciate your point of view as a collector, but as an avid quilter, it made much more sense to me to take the machine off a dusty, dirty shelf in my workshop and turn it into something useful. With the exception of drilling a small hole inside the machine where it is completely unseen, the beauty of this georgeous machine has been unharmed. AND, it's inside, in my studio workspace where I can look at it and enjoy it's beauty every single day! As for the actual value of the machine, I only paid $15 dollars for it originally on Ebay, and I see them on there all the time, so I'm hoping that I didn't actually negatively impact that part of it. It was listed as a machine head-no motor. I definitely do appreciate your concern as a collector though, and I hope this helps explain why I chose to do what I did!

They ARE meant for each other! This is so beautiful! I'm hoping to get to my friend's farm this weekend for a little bit of digging through her barns. Very inspirational!! It's a 10 again Jim!!

This is so cute, and I am very partial to that green! Love all you stuff! Thanks for sharing! Marie

I love the detail on the table, it's wonderful! I agree that yellow suits it!! I want it!! :) Marie

It's always fun to get to peek inside our fellow junkers spaces! Thanks for sharing your beautiful room with us!! Marie

This is really cool, I LOVE the way your mind works!I would love to have this one for my very own!! REALLY like it! Marie

It looks beautiful, and sounds like SO much fun! Marie

You are SO talented! I probably could have looked at all of this stuff seperately forever, and never come up with what you did! Amazing! Marie

These are too cute! What a great start to a beautiful collection!

Alice, I know! I looked forever for a huge one! Guess you're right! Just have to keep buying till you find the right one! That's my motto too! Marie :)

This is fabulous! I love it! Marie

You all don't think I'm crazy! That's what I love most. I love being able to see what talented junkers out there are doing, and of course, getting to share my ideas. Many friends and co workers just shake their heads when I try to talk about this amazing passion. They only want what they can buy at pottery barn, which after all, is really just an immitation of our original works! So, thanks to Sue and everyone of you for making this the best place in the world to call "home!" Wouldn't a Junkmarketstyle Convention be fun!!?
Marie

Must have been an overall great weekend to shop, because I found this cool rusty old metal, rolling, three drawered toolchest for only 5 dollars! Can't wait to start working on it! Yea for all of us!! Can't wait to see the curtains up, and I LOVE the Christmas dish cloth too! Marie

I bet she loved it! Lucky her to have you for a friend! It's wonderful! Marie

I love them all, it must have been so much fun! Such a cute idea, and totally cost effective!! Thanks for sharing!! Marie

So beautiful, and I'm sure, difficult to share. We are all so grateful that you did. Hugs, Marie

It was a difficult day, but this is such a sweet rememberance. Thanks for sharing it. Marie

It looks fabulous and so does your beautiful yard!

It's 6:30 am and what a great way to start a day - laughing! You are hilarious! I've never seen anything like this, it's wonderful to look at, but your step-by-step is even better! Now I also have an uncontrolable urge for a drink with an umbrella in it!! Thanks for sharing!! Marie

It's just perfect. Makes you want to sit down and quietly take it all in. Really, really pretty!

I really like this, they go perfectly with the metal drawers. Very, very unique! Marie

It is beautiful!! Marie

Holey cow, what a haul! I'm gonna go hit our strip mall some evening!! What a great idea! Love your stuff, that must have been so exciting! Marie

I have an indoor 400sq. ft. room where I do inside stuff- sewing, decopage, painting, woodburning. Then we have a huge shop outside that is a total disaster because it's full to the brim with dirty outside junk! That's where my saws, power tools, soldering stuff is found. Someday I'd like to really organize it, but it would be a mammoth undertaking! I have just one organized little corner, the rest is a mess!! I can't wait to check out some of the sites people are recommending! Good luck with your space. The thing is, stuff just keeps growing...there is never enough room! Marie

Umm, yes, that's exactly what I meant - a top to a Christmas tree ornament!!! :) Marie

LOVE this, it looks wonderful and is functional too! Marie

Too cute! Nothing like a piece with multiple uses! I love it! Marie

I love the thing you got on Ebay, it's wonderful! Welcome to the site, and I can't wait to see more of your ideas! Marie

Isn't it amazing what a little paint and a creative mind can do?! It's really pretty. Marie

It pays to look down when you're walking! This is really cool, and Joanne is right, it does look like an angel now. I really have no idea what it is, but it looks kinda like those pins that you squeeze together and put in something and then becomes a loop to connect one thing to something else. OK, that makes very little sense, even to me so I"ll stop now before I completely convince everyone out there that I'm a complete idiot! I will just quietly wait with everyone else until Wednesday!! Marie :)

Georgeous! Marie

It's wonderful, I can see why is sold immediately! I really love it! Marie

Very, very cute! I love anything that has to do with chenile! Marie

Looks like Christmas!! What a great haul you made! Marie

Holy Cow! You are amazingly lucky! Nothing else to say!!!

OH WOW! That is a haul and a half! I'd love to stumble on something like that on the side of the road! I think right now old books are SO popular because there are SO many things you can do with them! Lucky you!! I hope you show us some of the end results! Marie

I LOVE this! It is so up my alley! Everything about it works! Thank you for sharing it with us! Marie

Yep, I'd paint it too, but I tend to go really wild and crazy so I'll keep my ideas to myself! Safely, I'd go with a soft color - green, blue, cream and then distress it. What an outstanding piece! Marie

Those shutters are beautiful! The squirrel is so cute, what a great thrift store find! Thanks for sharing! Marie

You are just too stinkin cute! What a blast you must be to be around! I love your posts! Marie AND, you are right, there is no bad chocolate unless it's the empty wrapper that it used to be in!

OOHH, I could see it backlit on a wall behind a sofa. Great, great find!! Marie

It's very cool, I don't think I'd be able to part with it!What a lucky friend! Thanks for sharing! Marie

Very clever, and the little bird on top is adorable! Marie

Wow, it's beautiful just the way it is! Lucky you! Marie

Too cute! The sentimental things always get to me, so I love these! Thanks for sharing!! Marie

What a fabulous find! I love it and that's exactly what I would have done with it too!! Very, very lucky for you to have been in the right place at the right time for that one! Marie

Aww, it's beautiful, and so is SHE!! Marie

Great idea, the lids look beautiful on there, but I'd love to know what you used to fasten them to the wood too! Very cool looking!! Marie

HA!! I guess stopping in California and picking me up would be a bit out of the way, huh!? Sure looks like fun!! I'd love to be there too! Marie

These are so cool! Marie

Amazing! The way it transforms your walls and ceiling into a work of art is just beautiful! Marie

Your place is wonderful! It's so fun to see where others live and what they do to make it "home"! Thanks for letting us take a peek! Marie

That looks awesome, what a great use of the wheel! Marie

Very cool, especially the bench!! Marie

Oh my gosh, it's a beauty, I love it! Marie

Jenny, Jenny, Jenny, you never cease to amaze me! That is SUCH a cool table! Wow! Marie

Talk about being in the right place at the right time!! Good for you for saving all that incredible stuff!! Marie

I think we all have door envy! Wow, what a steal at $8. Lucky you!! Marie

That is really cool! I have several signs too, but NEVER thought about a table top! Now that you've done it, it seems like such a no brainer...Hmmm, what does that say about me?? Thanks for the great idea! Marie

My best friend Charlie and I have lots of those work days and they are absolutely the best days ever! I love your wreaths but love even more the fact that you take the time with good friends to make them! Thanks for sharing them with us, and I hope to see lots more of your joint efforts! Marie

It's absolutely beautiful! Who wouldn't LOVE to have it hanging on their front door!? Can't wait to see what comes next! Marie

It's a popcorn popper isn't it? We had one and when my kids were little, they loved taking turns on the handle while it popped. Brings back memories! Wonder where I put it? Hmmm. Marie

I was so glad to see this post and your idea for filling it. I have my 30 year old son's Antique French iron crib that I want to do something with. I cant decide whether to make it a bench or plant it. I was trying to think of the best way to fill it, and love your idea. I'm recovering from knee surgery, but as soon as I can I want to get going on it! Thanks for sharing yours, it's beautiful! I love your posts and always look forward to them! Marie

One MORE time that I wish I didn't live in California...I would love to be there! Marie

SO talented!! It's so perfect right there, it was made for that spot! Marie

What a great find, and the wildflowers are so pretty! Thanks for sharing it with us! Marie

Way cool, nice work!!

It's beautiful, I love it. Nature at it's finest! Marie

I probably say this every time, but I think I love this one the most! And this is just more proof that you can turn absolutely anything into an amazing looking lamp! It's wonderful!

These are absolutely georgous! What is it about anything rusty that makes it so beautiful! The flowers, your yard, the deer - They are amazing! What a great way to start my day! Thanks! Marie

It's beautiful, and the fact that it has such special meaning makes it even more so! Thank you for sharing it with us! Marie

Oohh, good stuff! I love those drawers! Bad time to have the trailer out of town!!! That must have been so much fun though! I love it when great junk comes at you for free! I'm excited to see what you do with some of it! Thanks for sharing!! Marie

That sounds like so much fun! Great idea, I think I might give it a try! Thanks so much for sharing it with us, and welcome aboard!! Marie

Great collection! I love old tools too and I'm always watching for them, lucky you! Marie

Very cute idea for the border! Marie

Wow,Pretty amazing before and after! It is perfect for your game room! Marie

What a beautiful yard! There isn't anything that beats rusty stuff in the garden! Thanks for sharing, it is amazing stuff!
Marie

Not in a million years would I have thought of this!! I actually have a complete crib in the shop! Don't need a fence or gate right now, but eventually someone will! Very cool! Marie

Absolutely amazing! I am in awe...Marie

Very nice!! Is it leaded or copper foiled? It is beautiful! Hope we get to see more soon! Welcome to the most amazing website around! Marie

Georgous! What else is there to say! Marie

Ahh, in my dreams...I would LOVE to be there!! Marie

I really like these, especially the dark red color! What a great find! I hope you show us how they look when they're actually framing your art. Welcome, and I know we'll see lots more from you - this site is addicting!! Marie

I've made a few of these myself, but yours are spectacular! Can't wait to see more!! Thanks for sharing! Marie

We are all in the same place, so you certainly never need to apologize! We are all hooked on junk, and I love seeing what everyone else has to offer! Go ahead, post away! I think it would be amazing to have a big ole junk Market convention so we could all get together! I'd LOVE that!!

This is really cute! Having made 2 of the pot ladies for my yard, I whole heartedly agree that they are NOT easy, and are in fact a ton of work! Worth it when you're done, but still they take hours to make! I love your kitty though!! Marie

Wow! I did the same thing with my 30 year old sons antique baby bed! It's off being repaired, just needs a little structural welding repair. When I get it back I'll post it! Once again, great minds must think alike!! I Love yours, it's beautiful!

Beautiful, and I love the GARDEN letters on your fence! I'd love to have those!! Marie

Wow, I have no idea what it originally was, but hey, who cares!! It is a really wonderful "wood thing" and I would have bought it too if I'd found it!! I Love it!! Marie

Oh WOW! Now I know what to do with all those outdated patterns that I didn't know what to do with!! These are wonderful, and I can't wait to try some myself! Thanks for sharing!! Marie

Really nice, What a wonderful rememberance. whimsey lives on long after we are gone!

What an amazing garden! Who would ever want to leave? Thank you for sharing this with us! Marie

I really like this, there's nothing better than lights and colored glass! What a great idea! I bet a bunch of us will give this a try!! Thanks for sharing a great idea!! Marie

How cute is that? Love it!! Marie

That is SO sweet! Way to go Alice!! Marie

It's beautiful! I like the numbers, it looks perfect the way it is! Marie

Ver Cool! I made a table like this for one of my sons. This looks great!! Marie

AWESOME! I love it! What a great re-use!! I'v never seen anything like it!! Marie

Amazing!! I had to enlarge it before I could even believe that you weren't kidding! That is an awesome paint job! Wow!! Marie

How cool is this! Those old numbers are so neat, I love it! It's fabulous as usual! Marie

This is SO cool!! I do have a dock that this would be perfect on...I love it!!! You and I seem to be on the same wave length once again!! Marie

Oh, I love this, and I could definitely use it on my deck! What a lucky find! Marie

Bird houses work! I've used old lic. plates as the roof! Love the planters!! Marie

This is way cool! We have a sports memorabelia room and I think this wants to live there... :) Marie

I bet she does love it! It's wonderful! Marie

Hey, I have one of these in the back of my closet, left over from my tennis days!! What a great idea! I'm gonna have to go dig it out! Thanks! Marie

Very cute! I think the possibilities are endless! Thanks for adding to the list!! I love these! Marie

When is the NEXT sale? I want to plan my trip!! Marie

Very Cool! Love it! Marie

I love Mackenzie-Childs too, I often sit with the catalog and wish I could have it all!! Your box is georgous! Nice job!! Marie

Hilarious! She's ready for anything now! Marie

I love this, its beautiful. Everything looks like it belongs where it is - the bird, the decorative balls, the color you painted it. Perfect! Marie

Beautiful! I am a firm believer that the garden is really just another BIG room in my house! I spend so much time there, and it needs to be wonderful! yours is! Marie

Too cute! Marie

She's awesome! What a fabulous room! Marie

Very nice, what a great save for the old doors!! Marie

OH WOW. I could move right into that room and live happily ever after! Amazing, amazing, amazing! I love everything in it!! Marie

Beautiful, what a clever idea! It looks amazing! Marie

Oh my gosh, too cute!! I would have kept it too!! marie

Nice! What a beauty! Marie

Simple, elegant, beautiful! Marie

ANYTHING to help make doing the laundry less painful is a good thing!!! Marie

What a great idea for a kids room too! I love it! Marie

Andrea, thanks for sharing your idea! I love it and am going to go searching now to see what I can use for legs! And, now I actually know what this thing originally was! Marie

When, where? I know you're quite a ways away from me, but it would definitely be way worth it to me to make a trip! I'm in northern CA in the SF bay area! Can I get info?! BEAUTIFUL stuff!! Marie

Again, WOW!

Ok, LOVE the footstool even more! Too cute!! Marie

WOW. It's fabulous! Marie

OMG what I wouldn't give to NOT live in California right now! I SO wish I could be there for this one...Whaaaaa! Marie

Most digital cameras, unless they are really old, do have a resize option. You may have to hunt for it, but it's there somewhere!! If you set it for email size or web post size, then they automatically work for posting. If you have microsoft there is an option where you go to edit photos and you can resize there too. It's all so confusing and depends on your camera and computer! Uggg. Why can't it be easy!! Take your camera to someplace like BEST BUY or any camera shop and ask them to see if you have it! Good luck!!

Wow, lucky cat! Marie

I love the art work on the side! Very clever idea! Marie

I love this! Isn't it great the way SO MANY things can become either a clothes hanger or a lamp!!? This is definitely too wonderful to destroy in any way! What a perfect "fit" for it!! Marie

Your yard is heaven! Absolutely perfect, I wouldn't change a thing! Marie

Wow, I love this! Marie

What fun to make it with your daughter! When the mandevilla starts to climb it's really going to be cool! Love it! Marie

Wow! Very cute, what an improvement! Welcome, and I can't wait to see more from you!! Marie

This is amazing! Your posts are always SO beautiful! I envy your photography skills! I really love this! Marie

Beautiful! Who wouldn't love to sleep here! Can't believe you got the door for nothing! What a score!! Marie

It's so nice to be able to make a save like that, especially when the canvas only lasted a year. This way, it lives on and you can actually get your moneys worth! Great save!! Marie

This is the cutest thing ever! It's a great way to turn something so ugly into a work of art!! I love it!! Marie

This is really cool! Another amazing lamp, they just keep coming!! I am also a big fan of old cans of all sizes and shapes! I am actually working now on one that I'm going to use as my address in front of my house. The fire department has asked us all to make our numbers more visable so I think mine will be now! I will post when it's done. Thanks for sharing another wonderful lamp with us! Marie

I've been on vacation and missed this post! I LOVE these! I'm a teacher and would LOVE one of these!! A+ on these necklaces!! Marie

Wow! It's beautiful, one of a kind, I love it! You're very talented! Marie

Welcome to Junkmarket! Your bench is beautiful! I am also an old furniture painter, so I know how much work goes into something like this! I love it! Can't wait to see more of your work!~ Marie

Beautiful as always! Marie

Ok, now these are too cool! What a great idea, I just love the way your mind works!! Marie

This totally makes a meal an eating experience! How fun this must have been! Marie

That looks SO cool! I love it! What a great way to keep it, but in a whole new way! Marie

What a beautiful yard! It looks like heaven!! Marie

I have something very similar, and I put a collection of beautiful blown glass balls in mine! Marie

Very cute! The collar was a great save, worth every cent! Marie

That is cool! I LOVE it!! Marie

Absolutely georgous! Marie

Wow, that's awful. I So agree. If they just put a fraction of their energy into being productive, moral human beings they could make this a much better place to be! I'm so sorry that this happened to you! Marie

How fun is all of this! Cute stuff!! Marie

WOW! This project is right up there with Jenny's beautiful desk! Amazing, as always!! Marie

So cute! Who doesn't have an old hose laying around somewhere! Great save! Marie

And, the very best way to be able to keep it for yourself forever is to photograph it! That way it's there for the next lucky person to stumble upon! It's amazing! Marie

Love it! I saw one in a magazine that had the old box spring welded into it, and in each round spring was a clay flowerpot blooming with annuals! It was adorable too! Marie

This is what life is all about! My husband works tirelessly for Habitat for Humanity as a project site manager. If we didn't have people like you (and him!) this world would be a little less bright. Thanks for sharing this with everyone, it's wonderful!

It's fabulous! Good for you for hanging in there, because it was definitely worth it! What an accomplishment, we're all proud of you!! I might have thrown it all in the trash on pick up day out of frustration!! Lucky you having someone to bounce ideas off!! That had to help!! Love it!! Marie

Very cool! It has become a beautiful piece of furniture!! Marie

What a great compromise, and it's wonderful to look at!!

Can't wait to see the finished project!! Marie

I really like this! You have to wonder about all the people who these keys belonged to...
Marie

You are SO amazingly clever! I can't believe the thought and work that went into this! I am really impressed! Very cute!! Marie

This is beautiful! I just last week picked up an old kodak film tin that I just love. I have't decided what to do with it yet, but I will eventually...Thanks for sharing this, it's wonderful! Marie

Wow! Great minds think alike! Very cute! Marie

That looks fabulous! It makes a beautiful sconce and just think, you have 3 more!! Very creative thinking, I love it! Marie

Very original, I love the tote bag idea! Especially if they came from your son! Marie

I love the little music stand it sits on, that totally makes it! Kudos! Marie

Very clever! It looks great!! Marie

Wow! You're not kidding! This is great stuff!! Lucky you! Marie

I agree with Amy, it will make me look at old globes in a new way...especially since I'm a teacher, and we all know how fast globes become obsolete! I watch them get tossed on a regular basis!! Not anymore!! Thanks! Marie

Neat! I love the way you see outside the box (or boxspring!)
Marie

What a wonderful piece! It's beautiful!

Stunning! I love the wheels on the crate, that's so cool! Marie

Beautiful! I wish I had your photographic skill! I love your posts! Marie

You have to be one of the luckiest junkers around, that is an amazing find! Please show us the end product! Can't wait to see it! Marie

Oh WOW. Why doesn't California have sales like these?? I'm with Jim - RUN don't walk back and get the chairs!! That kind of sale would be SO fun!! Marie

Hi Rachael, if you see this post (6/7/09) could you contact me by email? I have a question about the spring swap! Thanks SO much!! Marie marielynn99@yahoo.com

Breathtaking. I love it.

That is amazing, I love it. Talk about thinking outside the box! Marie

Wow! I don't think I could have come up with this in a million years! I'm impressed!! Marie

Boy, those wheels of yours are always turning!! What a Great idea!!! Marie

Don't you just love chalk board paint!! What did we do before we had it??! Marie

Very nice, I LOVE it!

Wow!! I do love my neighbors, but seriously, nobody has ever given me great stuff like that! Lucky you!!! Marie

I had always hoped that one of my children would opt for a wedding here at home, but no such luck! Yours looks fabulous! I love the door as a backdrop for the photos, and your table setting looks so beautiful. What a wonderful day it must have been! Nice work!! Marie

Ok, there's nothing left to say, it's all been said! As usual, I love it! Can't wait till your next creation comes up! Marie

This is cool! I definitely agree with Midge, I can see it used to display pictures or art work. But I also Sew, so I could see it as a storage place for ribbon, beads, etc. It looks like the hooks are staggered, so maybe a coat tree in a mudroom or entryway, or in the back of a closet to organize and hang purses? Outside by a potting shed to store clay pots or garden tools. Of course it would look even better once it's rusted up a bit, but wow, it has lots of potential! Don't throw it away! :)

It's really cool, but your kids' art - Wow! They are very talented!

How sweet is that?! LOVE it! Marie

I never cease to be amazed at the creative talent out there! These are really cool! Marie

These are really nice, I love them! Very creative idea!! Thanks for sharing! Marie

I love these! I like making my own clocks too, and it's funny how after awhile, everything starts to look like a possibility! These are great!! Marie

This is beautiful! Very unique, I love it! Marie

Crocheting it up takes very little time, it goes very quickly because it's just one stitch over and over! I wanted mine tight so it's a single crochet, a double would make it much looser with larger holes. The time consuming part is sewing or tying all the strips together! I used a rotary cutter to cut scraps into about 1 to 1 1/2 in strips, then when I felt like it, I sat at my machine and quickly sewed the strips together. If not, I tied them with a simple knot and then when it was done, I went back and cut off all the little tails. I just worked on it when I was sitting watching TV or in waiting rooms at the dentist, etc. so I can't really say how long it took. I thought it went quickly. I will definitely try another one! Thanks for asking! Marie

I have a couple of old cages in my workshop! What a great idea! Thanks for sharing! Marie

NICE! Love it! Marie

Yes, yes, yes Geo, it is a fabulous idea! There have been SO many times when I would LOVE to buy something someone has shown, that would be GREAT! Marie

What a steal is right! It looks fabulous now! Amazing what a little paint and sandpaper can do! I love it! Marie

Your things are beautiful, and the way they are displayed - Wow! No wonder you did so well! Marie

Great saves, I love them both! Marie

Lucky, lucky mom! It's beautiful!!

This is SO cute, I love it! Nice work!! Marie

beautiful stuff! Welcome and can't wait to see more! Marie

These are beautiful, I have a feeling they will sell like crazy! I wish you the best of luck, not that I think you need it! Marie

I have 4 dogs of my own, which makes me a total sucker for a good "dog" story. I love this one...What a sweetheart Shadow is. Marie

I bet she loved it! Very cute! Marie

I love this, what a great little planter and conversation piece! Great idea!! Marie

I love your vision, the way you stepped outside the box and did something fresh and different! Can't wait to see more! Marie

I Like ths A LOT! I just picked up an old box for a dollar fifty at goodwill yesterday, this might be a good fit for it! It's fun to see your take on the idea from the book! Thanks! Marie

Wow. Those are absolutely wonderful. I've never seen anything like it, amazing! Thank you so much for sharing, especially today! The flea market is rained out, I'm feeling like a disappointed little kid, and this was like a breath of fresh air! Thanks! Marie

Aww, she's adorable too! Very cute!! Marie

NO definitely not creepy, she's fabulous! It's raining out here now or I would snap a picture of my "pot lady" on my back deck! I just know she and yours would be best of friends!! And, I just made a scare crow lady with my class at school for our 3rd grade garden and I think she'd fit right in too! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her! And isn't a SILENT partner really the best partner of all!! Who could ask for more!?! Marie

It looks so wonderful! If I knew where you lived I be over there right now taking a little siesta! I'm afraid if this was at my house I'd never get anything done ever again! Really, really nice!! Marie

Wow! That green chandelier is georgous! You have beautiful stuff, I'm sure you're going to amazingly well! I'll be sending you good luck wishes! Marie

These are so sweet! Marie

Very, very cute, I love it! Oh boy, I can't wait to see other people's junk chimes, what a great idea to share! I will take pictures of some of mine when I get home today! Is this place the best or what?? Marie

WOW! What a fabulous haul you made! It must have felt like Christmas! How fun is that!! Marie

Perfect re use! I love it! Marie

Wow, beautiful stuff, now you'll be even busier!! Marie

Georgous stuff, Wish I was there!! Marie

I really LOVE these, but how sad will it be when the keys are all used up?! Marie!

I loved you blog too! What a great group of junker pals you have, haow fun is that! Marie

Exquisite! I love them! Marie

I love the "A", it definitely gets an A! I actually really LOVE the idea that we could kind of watch for things that we know someone might be looking for. It would be like having shopping buddies all across the country! There could be something BIG here!! I'm going to the huge Antique flea Market in Alameda, CA. this Sunday - Can't wait!! Anyone searching for a hard to find item?? Let me know!! Marie

They are cute! Hail in Texas and horrible wind here in California! But the pipe in the ground is a good idea, they might just stand up to the wind! I think they are wonderful! I have a couple similar in my yard but they are made of old pottery pieces stacked and glued! These catch the light beautifully I bet! Marie

Oooh goo-ness, what great stuff is that!! Just a little slice of heaven that it was all free! You're gonna have a ball! Marie

Very original idea, I love it! Thanks, I can't wait to try it! They would make great little party favor gifts for guests to take home. Marie

Oh wow, I have the perfect place for this - MY yard! I LOVE it! Marie

This is amazing! Very beautifully done! Marie

Oooh, nice, I wouldn't change it a bit! I love it! Marie

These are so neat!I love them! These kinds of things just make a garden come alive! Thank you for sharing them with us! Marie

Junkmama, you have a welder hubby!? You lucky girl! I feel fortunate that my son welds, but he's 2 1/2 hrs. away! He's probably glad, because if he were closer, I'd be over there every day with a new project!!

I just can't wait to see the lamp Jim makes out of records! This should be WAY too good to miss!! Marie

These are wonderful, what an amazing find they were. They are so beautifully ornate, but at the same time have that heavy rusted metal look that I love. I definitely have frame envy for sure! I LOVE these! Marie

That phone is too wonderful! What a great re-use! Marie

I love the calendar page you chose! I actually have a poster of it hanging on my wall at school! I guess great minds think alike! The desk turned out beautifully and I can't believe you got it for only 5 dollars! What a steal! Marie

This is SO cute! I love it! And, Judi, if you read this, yours will be mailed on Monday, I just finished packing it up! Can't wait for you to get it! Marie

Oh, I love this! Very cool!! Marie

Beautiful! Love the changes you made! What a difference! Thanks for sharing! Marie

Too cute! I bet they'd like to meet Maxine in my front yard!! I think they may be related!! :) Marie

Very pretty! Love spring when everything comes alive again! Thanks for sharing! Marie

That's so neat that one faucet can actually be hooked up to water! How clever was that?? This is so original and very cool!

Elegant looking! I love it!

I love this! It would be cute filled with chips for outside entertaining too. Very cute!

Oh my gosh, that's beautiful! Thanks for sharing it with us!

Wow Troy, I LOVE that idea! I have access to more, that would look really cool. Do you happen to have a picture of them?

I just saw a manhole cover at my scrapyard too, but I had absolutely no way to get it home. :( I love yours, it's fabulous!
Marie

Oooh, I really like this! Very pretty!

VERY cute! I lvoe anything made of denim!! Especially recycled! Marie

Beautiful! I do these out of black paper every year for my class at open house time. It makes a wonderful keepsake for parents. Marie

Fun stuff! You will be busy for awhile, but it will be fun to see what beautiful stuff you come up with! Marie

LOVE this as usual! The colors are great! I have a glass heart collection that I display similarly by putting them in the little boxes under the glass. Very cool. Marie

Wow, wish I lived in Kentucky...You have beautiful stuff! Marie

Very cute, and the picture in the buckle is perfect, I love this! Marie

beautiful idea, I love it! Seems like it could also be turned upside down with the wire side up for a different look, maybe hanging. Very cute! Marie

Jenny, this is absolutely the most beautiful desk I have ever seen! I'm without words! What a treasure! I showed it to my whole class of third graders and they agree!They also think you are incredibly talented! They love to see the amazing things that people make from what others call junk! It's recycling at it's absolute best and I hope they all learn from what they see here! You are helping to inspire a new generation of junkers! Marie

Very cute, I love the little fire truck!

Lots of neat stuff, but pricey. They wanted top price for almost everything and many vendors were not interested in taking offers. I'll go again and see if it was just an off day!

The shade is so cool! I love all the lamps that everyone comes up with, it's so fun to see how all the creative minds work! Thanks for sharing! Marie

That's SO exciting! I'm off on Monday so I can't wait to watch!

Too cute! Maybe one of these would keep my cat off my chair!!

What a wonderful find! They are beautiful!

Beautiful! You are so talented! I loved the first one, and the second time around is even better! Wow!

What a fabulous find, and a beautiful transformation!

7 of them!! Wow, that's what I call a really great day's worth of shopping! Those are too cool!

Very cool!

I love them all, but expecially the striped bag! How fun is that! I finished a couple more myself, but sold some at a craft fair last weekend. Yours are really wonderful! Marie

I know I already commented once, but honestly, the more I look at these, the more I LOVE them! They really are beautiful! Marie

They're beautiful!
Marie

Very cool, I love the hammers, that's pretty clever!

Wow, these are awesome! They are absolutely wonderful to look at! Thanks for sharing them with us!

It's beautiful!

Wow! You have a ton of cool stuff! What a great way to make sure he doesn't move back home! I did that too when my youngest moved out! :)

What a great idea!!

Wow! It's beautiful! Lucky you! What a great sister you have!!

Very pretty! Mine hang on the wall with photos in them.

Hilarious!

Beauty AND function! It's very cool!

My first thought as well, was to wonder why anyone would have a need to press lard?! But it is definitely a wonderful old find, and certainly worth 4 dollars! It's cool!

OMG! As the owner of 4 dogs myself, I have seen those faces SO many times! My corgie is a habitual digger, and that sign is absolutely hilarious! It's perfect! What an adorable dog yours is!

Very pretty! Amazing what a little glitter will do!

Cute! I'm going to Trader Joe's today! I love this!

I love it when I see one of your creations pop up on the site! This one is amazing as always! You definitely have bucket-ability!!

This is cool! It WOULD look good illuminated! Nice work!

I so agree with Alice! I never really minded being called "quirky", or having my junk style taste called "interesting" followed by an eye roll! But now that it's become trendy, I can do a little smirking myself! It's so nice to have a place to share ideas and have them be appreciated! Thanks! Marie

Cool! It looks great!

This is beautiful just the way it is! What a find, I love it!

It looks great, I love it!

As you continue collecting, you'll have so much fun as it spreads from your bedroom out to the rest of your house! Have fun with it!

It really is fun to see where everyone else creates. Makes me feel a lot more normal! I have a workshop outside for dirty work and a huge room inside for "clean" work. Not very organized because I always have a dozen things going on at once, but I know where everything is and I guess that's all that really matters!

I know that look! I get it on a regular basis! The dresser is awesome, that's all that matters!

Love these! :)

Wow! they really do look like the old tupperware tumblers! Pretty clever and the price is certainly right!!

I love this guy, He's too cute! My son and I are working on a junk sculpture. I collect and he's a welder. Can't wait to actually start putting it together! Thanks for sharing yours!

How sweet is that...

Wow, this is SO cool! At first glance, the steel looked like glass rods! Really unique!

Love this! It's beautiful!

Again, WOW! There's nothin else to say!

Welcome, you'll love it here - and this looks wonderful!

What a beautiful bench, thanks for sharing your idea!

Oh my gosh,I love you alien guy, he is so cute! If you're anything like me, it's good that you took that picture of your workbench all tidied up. I can't even remember when mine looked remotely presentable!

Georgous, and what a ton of detail work! They are beautiful!

LOVE these! I also made one for my cell phone and to keep credit cards and gift cards in so I always know where they are! And of course my sunglasses needed one, and everyone I know's sunglasses...and every denim shirt I own has been felted...It truly is an addiction!Yours are just too cute!

I've been loving your stuff pennyheaven, it's amazing! And I agree, it's an addiction! I can spot a wool sweater from the door of a goodwill store, and have to fight to keep from running to grab it! Sad, but true...

It's definitely going to add a little class to any flea market! It's beautiful!

I'm excited! I'm in too, it sounds wonderful!

goo-ness, it's beautiful!

HA!! I love your description: "The thingys for playing that yard game where you fling wiffle balls!" Hilarious! It's too cute, whatever it is! Thanks for making me laugh!

That looks great! Very clever idea!

Oh, oh, oh, I LOVE these guys! You are brilliantly talented!

Wow! It's fantastic! I love The red/orange color, the shape, everything about it! What a great find and an even greater end product! Just amazing!

I've seen these before but didn't know how to make them. Thanks for sharing, I can't wait to try it! Yours are beautiful!

Very, very cute! I love it!

Amazing, I really, really love it!

This is just too cute! What a blast this must have been to make, I love it!

Wow. Beautiful!

I LOVE it! I have a TP holder much like it! It's wonderful!

this is just too cute! I love it!

Cute! I have an old dock light similar to this! What a great idea to fill it with "stuff"!

These are beautiful! I just finished digging through a junk pile on a friend's farm and this gives me inspiration for some of my finds!
