Create a Special Advent Calendar for Next Christmas
6 commentsHere’s a wonderful heirloom project you can start creating and collecting for next year. This advent calendar has been in the family for over 30 years and we’re as excited to open and hang little trinkets and treasures now as we were when we were young! Mom and Aunt Elsa fabricated it out of burlap, felt and ribbon/tassel and we all collected the treasures over the years to include a special rock found during a favorite summer vacation, an old silver dime from Grandpa, a swimming medal, etc., etc.

Vintage Surveyor's Ruler Art Piece
10 commentsRemember the post I made using the pencils all stacked together? This piece is similar in the way I put them together - take a look: I found this surveyor’s ruler at the swap meet and paid $5 for it. I cut it so the red numbers would have a nice cadence when stacked next to each other. I then found a great “measure” quote and framed in a stopwatch, then placed it into calipers and attached it to the front with an old piece of hardware. I like the results a lot.

Holiday Junk Angels by Georgia Moon & JennyK
14 commentsWe did it! Georgia and I had our first arting day in my garage (AKA lab) today. Georgia picked the theme: Angels and brought along two boxes of amazing bits and pieces which we combined with my stuff and HAD A BALL! In addition to making the angels, Sophie kept us entertained by trying to hunt down the mouse that jumped out of one of the file drawers as I was pulling it open. I about jumped in Georgia’s lap, scaring her silly and haven’t laughed that hard in way too long… Hey, also a shout -out to junkermidge's post about hardware angels. That gal taught us the way to use the hinges as wings. Take a look at her post: http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/3667/hardware-angel-ornaments
