vintage made functional
You wish you would never have parted with…
…a 100-pound burlap potato sack with an awesome Wisconsin Badger logo on it.
Bringing to the Bonanza:
glasses and vases made from old beer, soda, alcohol, dairy, industrial and apothecary bottles. Variety of home decor made from vintage metals and materials, such as beer can flats and tobacco twists.
On your junking bucket list:
Old Country junking in the Europe and U.K.
You knew you were a junker when…
…I found myself driving down alleys instead of streets to see what might be discovered.
Best all-time junking find:
an early 1900s railroad signal in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I cleaned it up, added some candelabra pieces (including a pewter stag’s head) and made it into a magnet display. It will be at Junk Bonanza!
You never junk without…
…imagination!
In your garage: cars or junk?
Both! Lots of junk and a VW camper van.
No one would ever guess you…
…was once a PTA president.
Your junking holy grail:
stumbling upon shipwreck artifacts in or around Lake Superior
..Junking makes you feel
…enthusiastic.
