Junkin Finds!

We had so much fun spending the day at Junk Bonanza last week, a much needed break from the daily grind. There were so many great vendors with fun and creative fall displays.The Scrabble letters above seemed to be a big hit with many of the vendors. Feed Sack bags were also being sold at several vendors, they are just adorable! I think these are a fall must have!

Here are a few pictures of some cool junkin finds that we found. This old hook that now has it's new purpose as a witches boot is one find we couldn't pass up!
Another fun idea for fall decorating!

There was so many fun things to see and it was such a refreshing place to become inspired for new ideas. There will be more Junk Bonanza pictures coming shortly. Enjoy the Day!

Now that school has started (Hooray!), we feel that it is time to do some relaxing! We are heading to Shakopee, Minnesota tomorrow for the 4th annual Junk Bonanza. If you are not familiar with this show here is the link, http://www.junkbonanza.com/. It is definately going to be a fun time. There will be several exciting people that we look forward to meeting. Ki Nassauer, founder of Junk Revolution & JunkMarket and former editor for Country Home Magazine, Serena from The Farm Chicks will be there signing their newest book, The Farm Chicks in the Kitchen and that is just to name a few of the great people who will be there. We can't forget all the vendors with their incredible finds & fun junk. We will post some pictures of our junking excursion later this week! Wish us luck, hopefully we will find some good deals!
