Junking Tip:
"Living areas should be comfortable as well as beautiful. For example, oversized, white slip-covered sofas with lots of stuffing will provide both elements to your room. Throw in a beat up old coffee table constructed from scrap wood and an iron gate, and you will have firmly established a junking good look of your own. However, furniture alone does not complete a room, it's just a good place to start. For example, the neutral color scheme also played an important role in this makeover. The combination of several soft shades of off-white on textured walls added a European flavor."

Decorating JUNKMARKET Style

Sue divulges the secrets of the junking pros in her first book, Decorating JUNKMARKET Style: Repurposed Junk To Suit Any Décor.

Junking Tip:
"To find junk that has urban appeal, check out a restaurant supply store. You'll discover a wide variety of stainless-steel pieces that will complement an urban decorating theme. Look for prep tables and bakery racks that can be easily converted for use in your home. Items that appear a little too worn for restaurant use will be less expensive than pieces that can still fulfill their intended purpose."

Words of wisdom "Over the years I've had many collections, but only two have stuck with me: scales, gears, and gear molds. So when I walked into a flea market as an early shopper (it's worth the admission to get in first) and spotted a wheel-front clock, I had to have it. I flipped the vendor $300 in cash-I didn't even negotiate. When I picked it up at the end of the day, there were notes stuck all over it from people asking me to sell it. The highest bid was $1,800. It was a reminder that some 'junk' may be valuable, but that's not the point for me. The clock looks great in my dining room, and it makes me smile."
