WHITE VISIONS


 . . . at home with the boys


This great chandelier came from New Orleans . . . love the french influence! Some of our best finds came from Warrenton where you'll have access to treasures from around the country and around the world!       We can't wait!!


My favorite  white rusty birdcage . . . now, what to put inside? . . . hmmmmm! maybe a crystal chandelier!





Crusty rusty architecturals are a must . . . EXTREME PATINA!!



 Thanks for sharing our visions!   HAPPY WHITE WEDNESDAY!          HAPPY JUNKIN!!

T*G*I*R* (Thank God It's RUSTY!)

It's Friday . . . and although it's been wet and nasty we managed to bring in more goodies to the boutique!
Our CHIPPY BABY has a place of honor high atop our tower of JUNK!

RUST is like gold to us . . . you just can't duplicate what time and nature has created!  We're not the only ones who feel this way 'cause we sell MUCHO RUSTO!




I guess if we weren't so darn CURIOUS we'd be known as the RUSTY BOYS !!     Have a great weekend & HAPPY JUNKIN!                           Hope your weather is better than ours!
