Junk Heaven , OH, USmember
I was born to junk - always begging things from my grandma, and collecting rocks and avon bottles when I was little... I refinished my first piece of furniture when I was 18 - and havent stopped re-doing things since...
My friend, Terri, and I buy old furniture and great vintage junk - and paint, repurpose, etc. - and resell it at some fleamarkets in Ohio, and a few customers in central Ohio - we have a blast - always on the hunt for something! (Would love to quit my day job and do it fulltime!) We take girl trips (or junkets) every summer with two of our bestest friends, and have traveled into Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana - and of course - all over Ohio - one of our most fun trips was the Worlds Longest Yard Sale (250 miles thru Kentucky/Tennessee) four years ago. Next year, were planning on the 200-mile sale in Michigan (see you then, LuAnn!!).
My hubby is fairly understanding of my addiction - but says well never be able to move - too much stuff (I think not!!). My daughter shops my basement when she comes home to visit...(shes her mothers daughter for sure!!).
My personal style is cottage/beachy/shabby chic - with a little of this and that mixed in... I love to garden and am a collector of many things (my friend says if you have three of something its a collection - so...yep, Ive got a few!) Of course my favorite thing to do is hunt for additions to my collections (and pieces of interesting junk to play with) at fleamarkets, garage sales, thrift stores, antique shops - and sometimes its just dropped at my doorstep (friends and neighbors - gotta love em!) I collect pottery (mostly white - Haeger, Hull, etc.), vintage beach stuff - especially beach oil paintings, vintage jewelry, child-size chairs, and lots of other stuff! :)
Love the JunkMarket (aka Junkaholics Anonymous) - a great support group for junkaholics - HOWEVER, we're not looking for a cure - just a whole lotta support!! Thanks to Sue for throwing us together.
God Bless!

I'm done with holiday decorating...
Well, this is it...now it's time to bake some cookies!!! Merry Christmas to all, and may all your junking dreams come true next year!!! Kathy
A Merry Christmas Conservatory - revisited...
Here's my conservatory full of vintage holiday cheer! So many great old figurines and a perfect place for them to be for the holidays! Lots of carolers, and the red bell on the left...
And, a little holiday something for the "powder room" too!!
OK - had to share a glimpse of my "powder room"...
Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
I have a "ton" (literally) of vintage ornaments...and have decked the trees... (and still have boxes that haven't been opened - too many???)
A little Christmas bling...
This is in my tv/sewing room...dripping in vintage costume jewelry and a couple sweet little angels keeping an eye on things!
A vintage Christmas - just a peek...
Just started my Christmas decorating - I'm a little behind this year, but I love "playing" with all this stuff. And, with all the great ideas from everyone here - my mind is...
Button Bouquet - 101
After my first post showing the button bouquets, a couple members wanted to know how to make them. Well, on a difficulty scale of 1 to 5 (5 behind the hardest) - it's probably a 2. These...
Lighting up an old lampshade!
Here's one of my lampshade chandeliers! An old lampshade stripped down - the top is trimmed with lace from an old pillow case (it fit perfect), and the bottom is tasseled - and of course lots...
Some Christmas Joy - part 2
Another holiday junk collage - joy, joy, joy!! An old picture frame, scrapbook paper and letters from the craft store (painted and stained to age them)...and bits of junk finish it off!
Button, button, who's got the button???
I DO!! And, I'm not wasting any of 'em!!! Button bouquets for everybody this Christmas!! (hope they're not looking here for clues) My junk swap partner, LuAnn, sent me some...
Our Day-after-Thanksgiving show!
Here's a glimpse of our "traveling shop" at the Scott Antique Market - held at the Ohio State Fairgrounds in Columbus this past weekend. It was a huge success and we filled our little "cashier"...

"Building" a Merry Christmas - one project at a time (more to come...).

This is a vintage chalkboard that we've repurposed for our sign at fleamarkets/antique shows. It's a "show stopper" for sure!!! We want to make sure our customers can find usnbspWe...
Not-too-shabby "cashier" table
When we do fleamarket/antique shows, we’ve always just set our cashier space up on one of our tables that we’re selling and we always end up having to move, rearrange, etc. to keep doing...
No junk at Joan's...treasures galore!!
My friend, Terri, and I headed to Joan's open house early last Saturday...and were surprised to find that it was only about 20 minutes away from our workshop. We weren't disappointed...
And...A Cozy Guest Room Too!
Here's Ellen's oh so cozy guest room. She had all the right "stuff" for us to play with to create a space where her guests will probably never want to leave!!! :) My friend Terri and...
An A-Door-Able Desk & More!
What a way to spend a day...our friend, Ellen, asked us to build a computer area (that didn't look like a computer area), and give her guest room a re-do (pictures in next post...). The desktop...
China Candlestick
This is a simple creation - a piece of old china attached (glued) to a vintage crystal lamp (that had bad wiring). It was waiting for it's second life - and I think this is...
Shuttered shelf
Designed by my friend, Terri and I, it's made of small louvered shutters and a couple picture frames for a roof. Fabric, jewelry, buttons, etc. were used to embellish the roof. Glass...

I love bottles, and this is a collection that I made for one of our sales.
Conservatory - (and the good ol' summertime)
Here's my conservatory - I didn't make this one, a friend did - it's a tabletop version, and I change it in the spring, summer and Christmas - and a couple times in between - it's too much fun coming...

Starting to think about our next show...at the Scott Antique Market (at the Ohio State Fairgrounds in Columbus) - November 29 & 30 (Thanksgiving weekend) - a great "inside" show - yippee no...

Free junk - this stuff is too cool - yardsticks, metal baskets, an old chalk board, and just a bunch of "junk" (I mean "stuff") - but I think there are some treasures in here... A friend is moving...
A squirrely little fall display
I don't do a whole lot of fall decorating (a little on my porch), but did a centerpiece for my dining room. The cloche was bought new, but the two little guys were rescued from the confines of...

A conservatory kind of thing could always be made/repurposed out of something different - like maybe an old fish aquarium (no building required...).
Janis, come on over - I've got plenty to share!! :)

Re: Fun with Buttons
Geo - you did it!!! Love the black and white the best! And, yes, they are so addictive! I think part of it is that it's so easy, and the little "touches" - twists, turns, beads, etc...are just as easy as making the button stems - and it all turns out so darned cute!!! And then...choosing the container - there is no limit!

Re: A little Christmas bling...
Thanks for your nice comments. This tree is so much fun to do - a perfect way to "display" old costume jewelry (and whatever else...and sometimes I do get a "little" carried away). (and, AtticusFinch - I like yours too - I don't have any charm bracelets, but they look really nice - dangling...).
posted: 9:11 am on December 11thCandy - I agree about the jewelry stand - it was definitely meant to be just that!! It's got some wonderful detail (without all the "stuff" on it - it actually has kind of an angelic face on it, and on the bottom part of it, there is a bird's nest...it's really unusual. I bought it from a friend, and when she saw it painted she wished she would have kept it. But I REALLY love it! (sorry, Ellen)
And, who wouldn't love an angel playing a guitar, right? :)
Take care all, Kathy
Re: Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
Thanks!
posted: 8:47 am on December 11thI love the white too, and am hoping to find some parts to make one like Lani did (to add to the "collection"). (or maybe do a "re-do" with my existing tree...hmmmmm...)
upyourattic - It's hard for me to pass up a box of old ornaments at garage sales, etc...thus the "surplus", but I'm going to spread them around a bit more. I've got an old bicycle basket that would look cool filled with bulbs, and I'd like to make a wreath out of some of them too (don't know if it will be in time for this Christmas, but a good future project).

Janis - I love the little angels too!
upyourattic - I guess it's true what they say about great minds, huh?? :) I've got a couple more of the "California Perfume" (aka Avon) bottles from the anniversary collection - they have a wonderful vintage look. (well, from 1978 - I guess they might be considered vintage now...I really don't like to think of it that way though! LOL) I think I got my silver-plated stand at a consignment store - $10.00 (great price).

Jenny, I've got the ceiling tins mounted on a piece of wood right now...(about 2'x8' - it's 8 small panels) and it's hanging on our bedroom wall. It's not big enough to be the headboard (unfortunately) - but, you know I do have some other random pieces, maybe I could mount some more with it...and trim it out... Will keep you posted!!

Re: Button, button...who's got the button?
Deb - you "spinned" it just right!! Love all the buttons, and pieces and parts you mixed up and layered! And, the label that you put on it... So, very cool. I'm so happy to be a part of such an amazing group of creative junkers - it's all about sharing and being inspired by each other.

Re: My sunrrom at Christmas
junkcollector, What a cozy space and your junk collections are perfect for the holidays! I love the scooter. That's something that's on my "shopping" list...

Re: Well, I did the Button Project ...hmmm.....
You did a marvelous job!!! And, of course - love the buttons with your mother's jewelry! Very special and bling-y!! And, the tiny ones are fun!!
posted: 3:24 pm on December 9thTo give the container more weight...you could add sand, beads, or strands of pearls, etc...many possibilities.
Once I made a few, I couldn't stop - they were so much fun!
Kathy
P.S. Too funny - you're tearing things apart to get your buttons - but now you'll be looking for them when you're out and about junking. I found most of mine at garage sales, and some were given to me too.

Re: Button Bouquet - 101
Thanks everybody - glad to help a bit! Such a fun and easy project - but a few little tips help (you won't break as many buttons as I did...).
posted: 4:57 pm on December 5thThe mother-of-pearl buttons are my favorite. The small bowl in the front is filled with black mother-of-pearl buttons with various carvings - they're really cool too.
Gretchen - a great idea to attach a button bouquet to packages...and I know what you mean about needing more room for displays - or "maybe" we should have "less" stuff.......nah........that thought went right out the window!!! LOL
Good luck Geo! I know you'll "grow" some beautiful bouquets!!
Imakdee - the pendant was given to me by one of my friends - she soldered a piece of broken china - I love it!!
Candy - will let you know how our first open house/occasional show goes! We've got everything set up - now, up early in the morning to get some signs out on the street!!
Take care! AND Happy buttoning!

Hey Geo - Thanks - so glad you like them - they're just fun!! I used a 19-gauge craft wire (got it at Joann's). I'm posting a "how-to" with details/pics (later today), but these are super simple and so cute. Lots of possibilities with containers, adding beads, etc. I'm sure they'll be big sellers for you!

Re: How to Harvest Bed Springs
Gretchen - thanks for sharing - how cool that you were able to save the springs to give new purpose to your grandma's bed.
posted: 10:54 am on December 2ndWe had my husband's grandmother's bed and I ended up getting rid of the old mattress a few years ago (kicking myself now - because it was even older...and I could have had so much fun with the springs) :( Oh well, we did keep the iron bed and painted it - so, it's been put to good use.
And, thanks for the "how-to" (for future reference), and you can't hide behind a mask anymore - there's no hiding the fact - you're definitely a true junker!!!

Re: Our Day-after-Thanksgiving show!
Thanks for all your comments. This is what we love to do - and we always go overboard...but, everyone loves walking in our "shop". And to see it all, you really need to go thru a couple times (great marketing strategy, right?? LOL)
posted: 9:53 am on December 2ndWe're hoping our occasional sale goes well - we've advertised in the newspaper and sent out invitations, and also bribing people with refreshments (hot chocolate and cookies - yum)... It's starting out small - but we will have both sections of our garage/workshop completely full and a little bit outside - maybe we'll expand out in the parking lot in the summer...and invite a couple more people to join in as vendors - oh, heck - maybe we'll just block the street and have a street market!! Just dreaming "out loud"! :)
Kathy
P.S. I love the little pink "port-a-potty" too!! :)
Re: Button, button, who's got the button???
Thank you, thank you, thank you - you're all so nice!
posted: 9:36 am on December 2ndI'll post a separate "how-to" tonite - and show close ups of the wiring (under the buttons), the gauge (I can't remember what it is right now), etc...it's really easy. So gather your buttons (and beads or jewelry to dress them up) and get ready to be "wired"!! :) Can't wait to see pics of what you guys do too!
My Mom was in the hospital a few weeks ago (and I live out of town), and I made one and mailed it to her (a bouquet that doesn't wilt is a great thing!!). She loved it, and so did the nurses!! :)

Re: Lighting up an old lampshade!

And, a few years ago, I spotted another one while driving my mother-in-law home (it was on the curb - in a pile of free garage sale leftovers) - I had her hop out (after quite a bit of coaxing/begging) and grab it for me - while I drove the getaway car! A funny memory! (I handed that one down to my daughter!)
