The Junk Bonanza is pleased to feature a select group of hand-craft artisans in its first Portland show! Meet Holly and The Tin Pony Soap House!
Name:
Holly Grippe
Business name:
Tin Pony Soap House
Live in/Business located:
Springfield, OR
Your style in three words:
rustic, Southwest, eclectic
On your junking bucket list:
the whole state of Texas
You knew you were a junker when…
…I was a little kid; I used to drag home scrap wood and tumbleweeds. I would paint them and make art pieces.
Best all-time junking find:
I am in love with so many of my pieces but I would have to say my 1950s draft table; it’s simply the coolest desk I have ever seen and totally one of a kind.
You wish you would never have parted with…
…my 1927 Singer sewing machine and my 1950s refrigerator with stainless steel lazy Susans instead of shelves.
Bringing to the Bonanza:
handcrafted, rustic, all-natural artisan soaps and organic balms
You never junk without…
…my truck
In your garage: cars or junk?
Who puts cars in a garage?
No one would ever guess you…
…oh, so many things…
Your junking holy grail:
I want an old 1920s Ford tractor.
..Junking makes you feel…
…creative and connected to the past.
