Todays junk'n finds~

I had a great day today and found some very unique items.  Couldn't wait to share them with you, so here we go~  this is really cool!!!!


A glove form~love it!! It is some kind of hard plastic, not sure what but it will look great as a display piece for my altered art projects~I just need to make something:)


These are more props for photos~the old spools and restaurant ware dish **sigh** love it!!!  I was told by the sales lady that the big bullet the pic was picked up on some big ranch here in Texas. The guy had a bunch of them.  It dates around the late 40's.  Interesting right~I'm goning to put my FT paint brushes in it.  And the Scrap Book another cool piece I bought for the name, but it is book of humor~date 1940.



I went and meet and special friend and she had these for me~the crocheted gloves are amazing and the tin full of buttons **I'm speechless**:)


These were in the button tin~a cool dress tag and a girl scout button!!! Had a blast and the barn sale was a hit~until next year!!!
****For you local peeps my scrapbooking class is next Sunday, if your interested call Pam and save your spot.*****
And I'm told some sweet news will be announced sometime this next week ~ so there you go. have a great Sunday and go junk'n ~ it is the best medicine for all your troubles!!! See ya soon!

Junkn' finds today~


This is a quick post ~had to show the brooch.  It is amazing!!!! I can just see it in the middle of some handmade fabric flower.  And the keys there are some really big ones in this group~must have been hotel keys.  The tart tins are all ready to go ~ good and rusty.  The amusement park tickets were a great fine. Those will fit right in with scrapbooking or altered art.  Sad to say no floral frogs this round but I'm still looking~ have some girls that would like them:) :)  Great day!!!!

I'm at it again ~

junk'n, that is.  Besides being crafty, I love to go junk'n.  My favorite is primitive "junk"( antique's) but lately I have really enjoyed finding unusual items for my scrapbooking layouts!!  I love to re-purpose something old into something useful again. 
I love old buttons~very hard for me to walk by them, this time I didn't!!!  In the jar of buttons was one dice that had "7 up" printed on it~could be to a game, but still very cool!!!  The jar had some old "bling" buttons in it ~those are getting harder to come by.  The scrabble game with the bag of tiles really put a smile on my face!!!  But wait.......................

the old keys!!!!! A steal at $2 each.  The chandelier crystals are always a favorite of mine.  This time I found some smokey grey~I can just see these wire wrapped for a pendant!!!  Last but not least  is floral frogs~I'm seeing less and less of these, I think all the card makers have them~anyway had a great time with one of my BFF~she is always up for a junk'n trip!!! Really, I'm not braggin' ~ just wanted to share !!!  Have a great weekend!!
