Business name:
Long Rifle Soap Company
Live in/Business located:
Green Bay, WI (please don’t hold it against me Vikings fans!)
Your style in three words:
rugged, rustic, eclectic
On your junking bucket list:
1700s powderhorn with carvings made by its original owner and an authentic Kentucky long rifle for my husband.
You knew you were a junker when…
…30 years ago, my husband used to hum the Sanford & Son theme song to make fun of me. Now, he’s a bigger picker than I am!
Best all-time junking find:
beautiful aged meerschaum pipe with a hunting dog on it. Reminds me of our first dog together.
You wish you would never have parted with…
…my Grandmother’s milk glass.
Bringing to the Bonanza:
handcrafted soaps, shaving soaps, beard oils, mustache waxes, and balms. We use locally sourced organic tallow and all natural ingredients. Our scents run unisex/masculine with herby/spicy smells and I love them all.
You never junk without…
…my husband, my big car, and cash.
In your garage: cars or junk?
Both
No one would ever guess you…
…coached high school boys lacrosse for a dozen years. I was a Top 10 coach most of those years, made the state semi-finals, and three of my players are Navy SEALS (true fact!).
Your junking holy grail:
Win the lottery and hit the flea markets on the East coast and in the WV/KY/TN area. We own three 130-year-old log cabins that will be turned into our house in the very near future and I’d love to fill it with authentic furniture and decor.
…excited. I love discovering a special find and think about the history of the object and the people who used it!
