KING OF KINGS
AT THIS POINT IN MY LIFE I AM LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO CREATE WHAT SUITS ME. THIS NEW JEWELRY MAKING IS ADDICTIVE AND FUN. THANKS FOR LETTING ME SHARE!
Friends what would we do with out them
This is an old cupboard door. It had great green trim but slick paint. I found this saying and knew I wanted to paint it for my junking friend. She has moved about an hour away.:-(.
Architectural pieces and cloches two of my favorite things.

Bling for Sue! A must have for her upcoming sale.
When I saw Sue's Hop junk picture. I knew I wanted to make her a prize. She has inspired a nation of junkers. I thought I would say thank you Miss Sue. I know it's kind of corney but aren't we...
flag project
This was a junk project a few years ago. Since July is almost here this would be great project now! I took an old door panel.........crackled one end. While the crackle was drying I picked out...

The second picture was my first try. I wrapped & decoupaged & paint washed. I did not like it at all. In steps the master (husband). He added a neck with the help of paper towels. He...

picture frame
This was one of those blank wood frames. I did the reverse with pictures all over and info in the center. I did this for my daughter on her first mother's day with Hunter.
Making miracles
This is my garden girl. I bought her in Canton about 9 years ago. I just keep changing her clothes as needed. Today she has on "laura ashley" blouse & hand painted shortalls!! Prissy
Bird & nest
I love the beads I strung because they reminded me of mercury glass. My friend told me how much better the ball & chain looked with the bird nest necklace. I pasted the bird to front & made...
frozen in time
This necklace has been a work in progress. I love the ball & chain to add fun junk. The watch is 1920-30 with a broken face. The old key with the big "stone" attached adds bling. All girls need...
junk necklace 1st. try
This is my first try at "junk necklaces". I love the little vintage cross. I'm not a real bling person but I thought is could use just a touch. I also added the trust charm.
Dresses & knobs
This is out in my work shop. I have been taking before & (not as yet) after pictures. I love these little girl dresses. The hanger my husband & I did. Great board & knobs. I will post...
shaker tops
I think they were all shaker tops. Most of them are metal. Really cool. I bought them for my snowman making hats.

key holder
I needed a key holder. I had lots of junk. Here it is. I was inspired by Old Barn Rescue. In my laundry room we put old molding with door knobs all the way around the space. I am always hanging stuff.
more towel holders
I really like to repurpose good junk. The top towel holder is a planter box. We used the brackets from the top piece for the bottom. The bottom towel holder is out of stair/porch banister. I added...
Can you tell what these are?
I found the metal fan blade holders at my local flea market. I just loved them. But what to do with them? Turn them upside down & have great towel holders. They are dated 1898.
Quirky Snowfolks
These are my quirky snowfolks. I used all sorts of vintage & antique pieces. Snow dust for glitter. Funky top hats & even an oven thermometer. Lots bells, baubles & fun.
a marriage made in architectural heaven
Have you ever had just one corble? Here is a good solution. Turn it side ways and make a shelf. of course I did not make it Husband did. But I did the paint job. He may let me get close to the drill...

Re: what to do with cute old purses, flowers, and ribbon
OK here goes. I hand drew and hand painted children’s and adult clothes for 10 years.(Retired)I have not painted a couch. I think you will have to make sure there are no stains (could look like greasy mess) or scotch guard finish. The fabric paint I used was Deka Permanent Fabric Paint. The other brand is Pearl all surface ultimate paint. This one you have to water down quite a bit. If you don’t it gets stiff. Hope this helps and good luck.
