If it's rusty and crusty and maybe a bit musty oh dont't forget dusty I usually want it. I have been a collector of vintage stuff since I was young.
I would say I plan my life a little around junkin.
My kids think Im a bit crazy and my husband knows it.
I love vintage jewelry,glass,mirrors, Well... I just love it all.

Re: Gone Galvanized

This is super cute. I found a scoop in Cottage Elements booth at JB, had it in my hand, set it down. BIG MISTAKE. Came back second later and it was gone. I would have loved to do this with it.. Now Im on the hunt again... Guess that is 1/2 the fun.
Sue, Your an expert at Gorilla glue. My daughter is trying to glue gemstones to a belt bucklet. She has a mess with the gorilla glue. Is she using to much, or is it better for other projects and she should try a gem glue..

Re: Country Junk Sale!

I have never before seen so much great junk. Drove several hours on Friday to get there early. The rain made the drive slow so the place was packed full of cars when I arrived. Of course by the time I got there girls had piles of treasures set aside. I got a few fun finds but the chic coop I had hoped to find was not there. Maybe next time.

Re: 100 mile garage sale

Beautiful...
Also went for first time on the 100 mile sale. Got some fun finds but most wer found on the way down on Thurs. Lots of the sales started on Weds and Thursday. I did put on 500 miles and had room in the truck for more...I was a bit sad to see even an early start to Red Wing was not early enough..
