I always seem to have a half-finished project or two set up in the basement, so I have made a committment for 2010 - to go room by room in our house and finish all of the little things Ive started or thought about. I will cross-post much of it here and on my blog, http://cynyth-ourhome.blogspot.com/. It kind of holds me accountable if I know I have to write about what I finish :-)
I LOVE this web site! I bought the premiere edition of JunkMarket Style magazine, and have been looking for new editions ever since. I was recently Googling Sue Whitney, and here I am! (With her books on order from Amazon!) I am enjoying looking at other posts and pictures, and marveling at the creativity and ingenuity. Its very inspirational. And its wonderful to find so many people who love to decorate the same way I do.
I have much to learn in the way of craftsmanship and skill sets. I know I am in the right place :-)

Entertainment Center
This old dresser was in my basement when I bought my house nine years ago. The veneer was peeling off, and I used it for storage until I had the idea to make it into a TV stand. I distressed it...

This is awesome. The greenhouse is the perfect size for a small yard, and it looks great. Really love the chair-back shelf, too. No part of the junk left to waste :-) Perfect.

Nope, not junk :-) It's so awesome that you have it and use it. These things make the most special accents in a room. And it's really interesting, too. Very unique.
