Junkin Finds

We were lucky this week to be able to go junkin together. Since it was Memorial Day weekend, there wasn't a ton of sales but we found some junk to add to our collections. And we always have fun, eat a few snacks and drink diet pepsi. We have very similar tastes, so at times we "fight" over the goods. We really don't fight, we more so jockey for position. It is all in good fun. Do you junk alone or with friends?

Some of our loot includes a ornate picture frame and picture. Locker basket to store beach towels, a lamp for my sons room, and a quilt for picnics. A bag of goodies was full of the hooks, window pulls, and a backplate. If I don't use these for a project I thought they would look neat in a jar or bowl on my coffee table.

The bed was from Salvation Army and is for my daughters room. It does need some TLC, but I love it's shape and it was a sturdy piece. Don't forget to check out Southern Hospitality for others junkin finds.

Hi! Don't know if it's my computer, but I can't read any of your text. But I love the headboard and footboard, and all the hardware!

LOVE that bed! OMG! I have to know how much of a steal it was! I would never be able to find anything like that out here in the Pacific without a HUGE price tag attached to it...I am also loving the hardware. I would have been giddy the entire weekend...shoot, I AM giddy and I don't even own the stuff! LOL! Great finds!

That bed is to die for! Your daughter is going to love it. My youngest son is usually my partner in crime when I go thrifting. He like to look for guy stuff and loves the prices :)
