I think I am going to set out to find some junk. Okay, not real junk..just someone elses. I have the itch to go to the thrift store and find an incredible whatever. Whatever someone didn't see the potential in, and transform it into my treasure.
It amazes me what people throw out, but then again, it also amazes me of what some people keep. The whole "junkin'" experience isn't really just about being frugal. To me, that's the least of the reasons why I do it. I truly just enjoy getting something that someone gave away or better yet, threw away, and transforming it into something amazing. The feeling is intoxicating...the rush of the finished product, the responses when you get from people when you show them what it originally looked like(that reminds me...I have to take more pictures), and finding the perfect spot in our home that just gives it a little more of my touch.
Let's hope I find something really cool, so I can update with my treasures. Sometimes though, someones junk...really is just junk.

About this Blog
I've decided that if I actually write down my thoughts, projects, and "honey do" lists, that I might actually accomplish more of them! I am a mom of four (3 by blood) terrific, yet chaotic kids. Megan-16, Jackie-15, Courtney- 12, and little man Brayden-7. They keep me busy and I keep them sane. Or at least...I try to! Thanks to my wonderful boyfriend,Christopher, for keeping ME sane.
