2011-06-27T21:18:00.000-07:00

Weddings...the ultimate decorating dream...or nightmare!! This one was a wonderful mix of eclectic...vintage...creative...bliss :) It was just fun to help make it all come together, just wish we would have had more pics to share.

ReMeMber all those "summer projects" on your list?

2011-06-13T14:51:00.000-07:00

In the Winter we think "I'll do that this Summer" then when it arrives we are busy with Summer fun (that's a good thing) and think maybe "I'll do that this Fall"!! Well, don't give up on decorating and pulling out those Market purchases (they don't look very cute in the closet). Check back with us from time to time (between ball games & picnics) and we will try to keep you inspired!!!

What better way to show your proud to be an American :)

another swap/thrift find...the best kind~

2011-05-14T21:29:00.000-07:00

The plate holder was someone else's trash (the swap) the plates were too (thrift store) together they make a unique treasure~

Swap...

2011-05-12T07:04:00.000-07:00

Can't quit blogging about the swap...thought it might be fun to share what came home from last years swap~ The vase with the birds nest (wouldnt have thought of that) and the quote card ("the heart has no secret which our conduct does not reveal") are fun additions to this table grouping.

2011-05-11T21:51:00.000-07:00

More shots of fabulous friends, fun, food and fellow junkees!

Mixing, mingling and checking out the loot!

The decor was bright & cheery and the weather was too :)

The event wouldnt be complete without our favorite... Whimsy cupcakes made by these two beautiful moms.

a fEw tHings tHat didnt make it...

2011-04-10T21:10:00.000-07:00

We always have a hard time parting with the things we make (weird huh?) but sometimes its just to hard to let go, that is the case with the pressed back chairs, old chalkboard/magnent board, wire canner liner and old bottles, thought we would share a pic instead!!

a HaPPy room for a HaPPy girl!!

2011-04-10T21:04:00.001-07:00

There are too many market purchases to list here! There is one thing we didn't buy at the market though...you guessed it...the teddy bear once belonged to her Dad :) ps. be sure to check out DiAnes booth her dolls & bunnies are delightful~

The tale of the wire baskets :)

2011-04-10T18:40:00.000-07:00

Scraps shoppers will remember these long wire baskets!!! We sold them and sold them...and then one day we were so sad because we couldnt get them any more!! That happens to us every now and then, so if you see something you love...snatch it...you won't be sorry:) The fun metal & wood shelf holding the vintage pop bottles is a market original...and you guessed it, no longer available :( Don't worry we have more one of a kind stuff just waiting for you to take home and love for a very long time ~

SevEn days TiLL SpRiNg!!

2011-04-07T21:20:00.000-07:00

MoLding, table legs & frame...

2011-04-07T21:03:00.000-07:00

2011-04-07T07:36:00.000-07:00

We love to find treasures at estate sales & thrift stores and mix them with

one of a kind pieces found only at Scraps market....

more rare finds....

2011-04-04T19:03:00.000-07:00

There are lots of fun spots we could hang this sweet pieced garland made of vintage fabric...but when we put it in the kitchen window...it was home!!

A few of our favorite things...

2011-04-03T23:08:00.000-07:00
