Does collecting Junk make me a Junkie? To junk or not to junk? That is the question - and of course only has one correct answer....YES! Oh, and please forgive all the weeds. We've had so...
My Kind of Aquarium!
Another salvaged window. This one must have been from a bathroom or something because it is small and had no cross pieces. It's one pane of glass. The glass is from the scrap bin...
Kiss Me Frog.... or Else!
I had been holding onto this frog head for a real long time. A local gift shop was pitching it because it was broken. I knew immediately that I wanted to frame it. I used my recycled...
Recycled Window
This is one of many windows that I've done. It is a recycled window that I got from the side of the road, some scraps of glass from a Church window company and lots of shards of glass, glass...
Crib Conversion
Having a toddler with no fenced yard is a nightmare! When her crib got recalled (yes I know you aren't supposed to resuse it...) I couldn't see sending it to the dump. So with some extra 1x4s, screws...

Oh how sad looking at my beautiful tree! We got hit with a tornado this Sunday in High Point, North Carolina - and this tree is now in a pile (massive pile) at the curb along with everyone elses trees, siding, roof tiles, etc. This picture is definitely much nicer than it looks now. Now it is a mud pit with a tree stump. :(

Renwoman: No pattern! I mostly cut and place the pieces. Sometimes I just keep moving glass around until I like the way it looks. I usually have an idea in my head and might sketch it out - it never looks like my sketch though! Thanks for loving it! This site is awesome for boosting egos! Wahoo! Thanks JunkMarketStyle (Thumbs up & a cheesy grin!)

I love this one! I've been trying to find a ladder like it, and ya know...it seems people are holding on to thier junk a whole lot longer these days! I look forward to snagging a ladder so I can do the same. Thanks for the inspiration! Great job.
