Ive been junking too long to remember. I have done crafts since the 80s, thats when I started to create alot of things that I couldnt afford to buy things that I liked so I would come up with something on my own. You see I had twin boys at the time and money was tight. It also gave me something to keep me sane. Now I have been selling my stuff for almost 20 yrs. I still love it but it still amazes me how nobody else does!.

Re: Junkin' Jewels

Oh everyone is right you are the Queen of Treasures! I make craft type items and sell them and one of the things I can't find enough of are good windows to paint on. I will sometime paint right on the glass or if the glass is in bad shape I will remove it and attach screen to the back of the frame and paint it that way. The white one would look cute painted with chickens like they would be in a chickencoop. I also love to take the timepiece faces and add them to a cool old photograph for a neat portrait. The pulley is neat to use for hanging a plant from on a back porch say maybe a chicken feeder with some catus growing in the bottom. Just let it down to water!!!!

Re: Faux Painted Walkway

This is it!!!!!! I have been lookin for a way to do a concrete patio in a circular design but cannot afford the pavers and all it would cost! I was going to have a plain jane cement circular patio without any design. THANKS to you I now can envision what my design will be on my new concrete patio!

Re: Nature's Junk

I would love to know what you used for the finish, we removed two huge trees on the side of our house a year ago and when the pieces were dropped of course the bark fell off so I asked to keep several pieces to use. Now I would like to seal them before they get ruined! Thanks!

Re: June Floral of the Month

I love the 13 on the box. My daughter and I are both 13 birthdates infact mine is this Sat.We laugh [and love] when it lands on Fri. It's very hard to take an old box with print already on it and paint it so I will have to look for an older one now so I can make this. So cool!

Re: Spoon Flower Closeups AND Spoon Angels

Love these & defintely will be making some for my craft show coming up this month. Thanks for the idea! Great job on the info too!!!

Re: Christmas Ornaments

These are really neat and I think I will be doing something similar that will be my own little twist if you don't mind. I have a new puppy so i won't be putting up my regular tree this year so I am going to use this idea and see if I can add them to an old lampshde and hang it up, that way i don't need to worry about him getting to it. really neat!!!
