Funky Junk fun for all!

Thanks to the Funky Junk Sisters for putting on this fun filled show!Besides all the Fabulous Junk, One of the Main attractions was the Fabulous Junk Queen Ms. Sue Whitney! We had sooo much fun hanging out with the little dynamo junk star! She's super nice, and super funny, she had some great stories to tell and it was really a pleasure getting to know her. She is a huge dog lover and took right to my new little baby lilly, which just happens to be Sues Jack Russells name.
Heres a few pictures of our booths at The Funky Junk Sisters Show last weekend.
I love love love this bed, but nobody bought it?It was only$150 is that too much??? I guess you could go to Ikea and get one for $149, but I prefer the old and to recycle not reproduce, Grama would be proud!
Another great attraction at the show was The Sisters on the fly with their with their super cute little vintage trailers, this one belongs to Kari.
Mimi Charmante aka Kimberely Taylor snapping some photos. Check out her beautiful photography on her blog.
I'm thinking this sexy little number to pull my canned ham (little vintage trailer) top down, sunshine, winding roads, magestic mountains, oh yeah and lots of flea markets and antique shops on the way! That would be a dream come true, maybe someday?

May Day Love

Thanks to ALL of you who came out for the Garden Party! It was a HUGE success and we all had soooo much fun getting ready, decorating, rearranging adding all the pretty flowers and most of all having so much fun with so many of our WONDERFUL loyal customers!
Fresh lilacs one of my favorites!
The backyard is still full of lots of garden art
Just in are these super cool "tiki" torches they have a glass holder for a bouquet of flowers or a candle.

And then Later that evening we got to celebrate my Birthday!:))

Sue Whitney coming to the Funky Junk Show in Puyallup

Breaking news just in from the Funky Junk Sisters! Sue Whitney of Junk Market Style is coming to Puyallup for the third annual FJS show!
How exciting is this! I'm really excited to meet Ms. Whitney, because not only do we have the love of Junk in common, but we were both in the same issue of Flea Market style Magazine last Summer! So I'm hoping for her to autograph my magazine copy! thats my living room!
Thats my little dressing area in my bedroom ha!:)

Sue Whitney, who is well-known to viewers of HGTV’s Country Style, got her start in 2000 when she opened a workshop in Minnesota. There she created one-of-a-kind objects using vintage odds and ends she salvaged and brought home from flea markets and barn sales. In 2003 Whitney became editor-at-large of Country Home Magazine. Now, the author of four books has launched a magazine and makes frequent television appearances including the Today Show.

When Whitney joins the Funky Junk Sisters in Puyallup in May, she’ll be available to shoppers who’ve purchased special tickets. On Friday, for $75, fans will get a one-hour seminar by Whitney, as well as a chance to spend another hour doing some shopping with her and have her sign books.

On Saturday, a $30 ticket buys admission to a special one-hour seminar by Whitney and a book-signing. For more info go to Funky Junk Sisters

Dream Girls 2010

The Queens of Dreams
Tiffany Kirchner Dixon of Shabby Scraps and Terri Brush of TerriBrush Designs

I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a weekend with some of the most talented,inspiring and funny women ever! Let me start with the Queen of Dreams herself Miss Tiffany. She really is The Fancy FarmGirl! Her house was so beautiful, her attention to detail to make sure everyone felt at home was beyond, and her art studio to DIE for! Cookie the newest member to the family is only 4months old. I almost threw her in the backseat of my truck and ass napped her, she's soo darn cute!
So onto the Dream Girls Workshop
Saturday was the soldering day so we had to get down to business, because we had some great projects to make thanks to Miss Terri Brush the super talented soldering queen! And not to be left out lil' Miss Donna her right hand girl so helpful and sweet.
More treats,
Tiffany gave us all a set of her beautiful rose photo stationary


How pretty cool are these? was it Lisa that said spooning leads to forking? I know, I know ,what happenes in enumclaw stays in enumclaw:)Lisa brought us all super cute fork and flower card holders and Majai gave us beautiful hand made flower corsages on Saturday.Super sweet Auntie Joy made all of us these adorable folders with special little aprons inside! Can you believe that? Thank you Joy!
Jeanne of a Bushel and a Peck was one of the sweetest funniest girls I met. She even gave me the cutest sweater to wear after I had a run in with a chocolate Martini! Thanks jeanne:) and I kept forgetting to tell you I have a Benjamin too!
We celebrated Tammy and Isabels Birthday Friday night and ended up at the Yella Beak Saloon. Again what happens in Enumclaw must stay In Enumclaw.
I forgot my camera Friday night and didn't get very many good pictures with my $99 cannon sureshot so I would suggest you go to the pros for some better pics Kimberely (mimi charmante) Robin (Birdtweets), Isabel (Mason Douce) And I know many of the other dream girls will be posting what photos they can. Love this photo I took of Lisa and Robin!So this is the end result.
I wanted to use the 1/2 symbol, because Tiffany gave it to me. At the time I didn't know what it meant , but just as I'm posting this pic I realize the significance. I am one who try's to look at the glass "half" full and I know Tiffany does too. This sweet little charm will always remind me now of the girl I met a few years back. The one with the infectious laugh and the giving heart, the one who kept on kris and I to make a blog, we didn't, until she was kind enough to finally do it for us, and well now the rest is history... So for that Tiffany I am indebted to you!This is my soldered paper mache egg that I didn't quite get finished, but it pretty much sums things up!
Holy crap I think this is the longest post I have ever done!
xoxo
