~New Junk, Before & Afters & Some Sleepy Market Pics~

JUNK is here!!! I have been under the weather this weekend, almost felt like the flu but I think it is just the good old cold! The junk was not as plentiful this Saturday, a few finds but they were some good ones!! Hubby came in Saturday and delt the junk lecture once more to me...... you know the one" You gotta stop, seriously you got to , it has spilt over outside of the garage" then there came those words...."We are beginning to look like White Trash!" my reply, "Beginning too? I thought we already were!" Well... we did haul two loads to the Goodwill, you know the junk you accumulate over time that you never have a place for? So we did get it all back behind closed doors, a little progress..... for now anyway!! I did get alot of big pieces to the booth this weekend. The market has been busy as ever, what a Blessing that is!! New booth pic below of it all blended in together. I grabbed up a few pics of some of the booths and little goodies that caught my eye there today to share with you all. You will soon see why Sue from Junkmarket Style feel in love with this place when she made her visit to Charlotte!

This was another Sleepy Poet find from one of my favorite booths...except I did not even let her get it in there before I yanked it right up off of her cart. Old yellow chippy clock case made into an adorable cabinet!! Would you just die if I told you $30 bucks? I did not have to think twice, LOVE it!!

Saturday Junk find....Loved this old Cupboard the second I laid my eyes on it, I can invision it back to its old Chippy White self one day soon....This is my next makeover project. I hate that someone had already stripped it of its chippy white beauty! Little hints of the old white were left throughout.

Look at the little old cubby holes inside, too die for adorable!! I hope someone else loves them as much as I did when I saw it sitting there on the dirt floor of the old barn.

One of my fav booths in the Market, isn't it just dreamy??

This was one of my Friday purchases... best thing it required NO work, straight from the dealer to the booth. It is a huge piece, probably my biggest yet, boy I hope it sells!! Too die for yellow chippy paint, I am guessing a sideboard cupboard from the past.

Another great Saturday find.... Old Metal Medical Cabinet, in the best shape I have ever seen. This I had to get for the booth.... and yes it made it in there today.

These are a few littles Junk goodies from Saturdays Sparse hunt!! Well, the old camera case never made it to the booth, it came in the door and on of my best cutomers sent it right to the register!! Adorable little heavy rusty metal stool, was a cutie, it also SOLD by day end!

This little white old Farmhouse Cupboard below is my makeover for the week. Found a few weeks back it was in need of some help....BEFORE...Old dirty drab boring white cabinet, but a beauty in disguise it was....

AFTER.....I hit it with the sander this morning early the lead paint was a flying....and underneath were the old shades of White, Cream, Teal and a Limey Green color... I sealed in the chippys with a litght coat of almost clear stain. I love the new transformation as you can see it made it's way to the booth this morning at The Sleepy Poet, $124.95!!

My friends Karen over at Koolyukiestuff had made up these to die for feedsacks pillows for her booth!! I just had a fit right there in her booth over them! Hop over to her blog and check out her Kool Yukie Stuff!

These little glass rings are the cutest ever, yeat another great Vintage Funky booth at The Sleepy Poet, my friend Krissy over at Kitsch-y-Cool Vintage makes these up. Sue from Junkmarket Style loved her light up mannequin display, you will have to hop over to her blog and Junkmarket Style to check it out. Her blog is awesome, you gotta head over and check her out!!

This is one of my favorite little booths and the dealer is just a gem, she is truly one of the sweetest ladies ever! She is the one I nabbed up the adorable clock case cabinet from!! See the chippy green shelf laying there in the pic, I wish you could see it in its entirety...to die for, perfect chippy paint, it is huge, big rusty green hoooks, $95!! Super deal!!

Boy I loved this..... It is just so perfect sitting there!

I bet every Junker could find somthing in the adorable booth!!

Thanks for stopping in for the tour... I will have more market pics on the way soon, with 55,000 sq feet it's kinda hard to get them all in one post. Be sure to take a peek into Karen and Chrissy's blogs, tell them Janna sent you over to say hi!! I hope everyone has a great week full of good JUNK!! Hugs and Blessings, Janna

Hi Janna,
I haven't been able to get into my garage in the last 5 years and my husband has stopped with the lectures because he is just wasting his breath and after 20 years he knows it :)
Loved your tour, wish I was closer
Blessings

Hey, Janna--
I am truly honored you photographed my booth! As always, I'm inspired!! I can so relate on the husband front...I think my hubbie will divorce me if I ask him to move one more thing...not to mention all the painting that's going on in the den...
Hope to see you this weekend at Sleepy!
