This is my favorite find of the week...Chippy Old Childs Desk...and the best part it needed not one ounce of work...except for one board to the bottom, I had just the perfect old piece and we nailed it right in. The Keep off the Grass sign is adorable, don't know why it was put there but I like it!!!
The Chippy Screen doors FINALLY made it to my booth.....and I hope they find a new home soon! They are too cute to sit around.
Right as I was finishing up and got everything situated the Turquoise Cabinet from the previous post sold!!!! YIPPEE it sold... but YIKES... I was so pooped I has to re-arrange the hole it left. So this was the best I could do for today, I had just nestled it in on top of the old bench... then she was gone!!
I had to take some photos of things that make my heart skip a beat....Old Rusty Scales.....
Chippy Paint Rusted Turnlocks...
Old Rusty Hinges....
~Last but not least...This Weeks Thrifty Junk Finds~
Found this old white cutie at a thrift store this week... already painted so all that is left for me to do is chippy it up and add some new hardware!! Old Birdhouses, had to get those!! They need me to chippy them up a bit , a little to Blah for my taste. The feedsacks, tons of potential there!! *Update White Dresser SOLD*
I have to admit this was quickie picture because it is just too stinkin hot outside... more makeovers. The Brown Cupboard.. I noticed when I rinsed it with the Hosepipe, yep you heard me right, everyone makes fun of me for saying it... but coming from a Southern girl, waterhose, gardenhose what have you sounds to strange for me!! My husband tells me there is no pipe attahched to it anywhere..anywho it is white underneath, maybe possibly chippy white, we'll see how it turns out.
And that Brown Old bench, well it has SOLD and it is going to be beautiful chippy yellow and turquoise when it is picked up. I can't wait to get done and let you see the afters, I think I may have a few more makeovers in addtion to these in the works so keep a check they will be done soon or at least I hope the will!! Thank you for stopping by, I love hearing from each and ever one of you all. And not to mention the inspiration I get from all of my blogger friends blogs! Have a great rest of the weekend, Blessings, Janna

Keep up the good work..it looks great.
I want to go shopping in your booth! It looks great! Congrats on selling the cabinet! Love all your finds and can't wait to see them "booth ready"! ~~Annie
I love that "Keep off the Grass" sign too! It makes me chuckle just to think about what kind of "grass" they are referring to! Anyway, great finds--they were worth the wet hot sticky clothing!
Thanks for sharing!
WOW! Great finds! I do want to talk to you about your pendants, they are so beautiful. They are way different than the ones I got in. Can't wait to see what you do with the "makeovers". Dawn

Isn't it funny how going out junkin' and thriftin' after a bad day or week makes us feel SOOOO... much better? You are amazing w/all the little (and big) goodies you find and re-do.

Glad you found some great new junk! I didn't get to go much this week...

Well it is a hose, and it's attached to a pipe. So there. You must be the hardest working woman in the business, Janna. I miss the energy you have.
