You've already seen some of my "circle of friends" as Alice Mom calls them (love that term), but here are a few more of my favorite round junkables. Look for some of these to show up in a more finished state in the weeks to come. Until then just enjoy some junk in the raw over a cup of coffee and let your imaginations run free. ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17390/a-junkers-collection-part-two Sat, 24 Oct 2009 15:10:03 -0400 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17375/a-junkers-collection-part-one http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17375/a-junkers-collection-part-one Posted by suewhitney
The junk on the bus goes round and round. What is a collection? When I was contacted by a local publication to share a collection of mine it dawned on me that junker's might just have a different take on this concept. ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17375/a-junkers-collection-part-one Wed, 21 Oct 2009 09:25:42 -0400 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17280/trick-or-treatmwah-ah-ah http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/17280/trick-or-treatmwah-ah-ah Posted by suewhitney

So go with the flow! Candy, Candy, Candy....You stinker!! You did indeed deliver a doozie of a challenge. I'm not so good with fancy, and you know it! I lean more in the direction of industrial so I had to dig deep into the playground of my mind to deliver up an answer to Editor's challenge # 7. ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16316/you-cant-take-the-fancy-out-of-fancy Mon, 21 Sep 2009 15:00:00 -0400 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16135/a-simple-monday-ah-ha-moment http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16135/a-simple-monday-ah-ha-moment Posted by suewhitney
OK, I know JMS contributor Miss Kathy was chortling over these delightful pieces of junk she presented to me as just one of the many challenge items she gave me. I had something else planned for today, but while noodling over these and enjoying a cup of coffee I had an "Ah Ha!" moment. So here you have it...fresh from the oven! ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16135/a-simple-monday-ah-ha-moment Sun, 20 Sep 2009 18:47:07 -0400 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16074/editors-challenge-5-bed-spring-candle-holder http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/16074/editors-challenge-5-bed-spring-candle-holder Posted by suewhitney
Yo! I'm moving right along on these challenges, but still many a mile to go. Gretchen decided to give me a pile of vintage cash register pieces and a spring. I decided to do the spring first as she has many of these from her Mom.

Man, oh, man, oh, man....this was not an easy one! I received some hunting season orange junk from an anonymous JMS member. Maybe there was a note, but I didn't see one....I looked hard! So feel free to confess.

Editor's challenge number three coming right at you. I received this piece from JMS contributor, Jimbo "The Man" Healy so thought I would go in a more manly direction with my submission.

Organization is the name of the game in January. Is there a better place to start this never ending journey than in the laundry room?

Since my daughter has become a vegan, I have little to no use for my quiche pan. So, I thought it would be funny to frame a picture of her in it to remind her of the days when she actually ate eggs. Ha! I'm not quite sure if she appreciates my sense of humor quite as much as I do. Seriously though, when you find something lying about that you don't use any more, why not put it back into play? That's exactly what we decided to do. E is on her second week of winter break and we were looking for something fun to do. After identifying the body of the frame we gathered the rest of our materials from the box of leftover Christmas trinkets, treasures, and papers, and went straight to work. The finished project will hang on a wall in my bedroom so I can see that smiling cherubic face, of a once upon a time preschooler, every morning when I wake up. Ahhh... those were the days! What she doesn't know is that this is the first of many photos to be framed JUNKMARKET Style to adorn her 'Wall of Fame' when she graduates from high school next year. Not all of them will be this adorable... I'll also need to address that awkward stage. Poor E! ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5756/how-to-make-a-quiche-pan-frame Sat, 27 Dec 2008 12:22:13 -0500 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5642/winner-of-the-dog-collar-contest http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5642/winner-of-the-dog-collar-contest Posted by suewhitney

Here is a great alternative to a wreath in the window. The best part is that what you pop in can pop right back out. All the plant materials remain in their original pots and are hidden by moss. This makes for quick and easy pit stops allowing you to win the race against the seasons. ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5515/how-to-make-an-indoor-window-box Thu, 18 Dec 2008 14:29:14 -0500 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5264/ill-take-bottles-for-300-please-alex http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/5264/ill-take-bottles-for-300-please-alex Posted by suewhitney

Come on everybody, let's do the upcycle. No, it's not a new fangled exercise program to achieve a flat belly in ten days or less, but rather it's taking items from your home and using them for something completely different than what they were meant to do. I just love using unexpected pieces to create things of beauty and purpose. This candle holder is crafted with leftovers from a building project at my home, some decorative craft paper fresh off the scrap pile, some ribbon, and a vintage watch face. Unlikely partners for sure, but that's the beauty of it all! ]]> http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/2826/upcycled-cottage-industrial-candleholder Wed, 03 Dec 2008 18:53:48 -0500 http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/4339/how-to-wrap-with-wallpaper http://www.junkmarketstyle.com/item/4339/how-to-wrap-with-wallpaper Posted by suewhitney
