Its the best day...

I have an strange affection for books. Not the ones you read, oh no, I dont read. The ones you look at with the pretty pictures. I received 3...count them...1, 2, 3, books today and I am a happy camper. I will busy the rest of the evening with my favorite glass of wine and my picture books.

I have several other books I love to look at over and over, (my husband actually makes fun of me...the nerve!)

Let me know what you favorite "picture" books are!

What kind of "Junker" are you?

Have you ever wondered if you are a Junker? Did you know there are different kinds of Junkers? (Sounds like a disease..) Well, your not alone, and your Junking status is defined. Check out http://fleamarketstylemag.blogspot.com/   and see what kind of Junker you are.

I am #2...whats your #?

Barn Sale Success!

I am so excited about this, this is the first Barn Sale that Tara from http://www.junkrestore.com/     has put on and it was a HUGE success!! She had the cutest setting: a huge yard with a cute red barn in the back. Quite picturesque if you ask me. She had the cutest stuff and her prices were fantastic! She had several vendors, including me! Make sure to check out her blog and anticipate the next Barn Sale in November. I suggest you make plans for this one, and come early! It just going to get bigger folks!

Cant wait to see everyone next time!! If you had a chance to come to the Barn Sale, tell us what you thought!

Trash OR Treasure?

Is it illegal to take something beautiful out of someones garbage? Or is it illegal to throw it away in the first place?
Let me know what you think!
I saw this sticking out of someones garbage on the curb, naturally I stopped. I did try to get someone at the door but to no avail. It doesnt look bad in the before pic, however what you dont see is how wet it is and what it smells like. I wasnt even going to try to figure out what was making it wet, I mean it WAS in the garbage, but I couldnt just let this go to the dump! I think I saved its life. It feels good to be a Hero!
