JUNK

Ok, junkers -- you know who you are.

YOU DON'T SEE ANYTHING ODD ABOUT THIS PICTURE:

You have a pile of vintage refrigerator doors propped in your garage. Rust is your favorite color. You're not afraid of cobwebs or splinters or tables with missing legs.

You save little wheels off things and vintage doorknobs and keys and interesting jars and Great-Aunt Evelyn's hankies and that huge old dictionary that's missing geronimo through icicle because you MIGHT just need it someday to prop up a table with an absent leg.

If this is you, don't miss our
FARM FRESH JUNK SALE
Saturday, June 12
9 am til 3 pm
inside Fairlawn Plaza Mall


We've hand-picked about 25 of our fellow junkers and asked them to drag their favorite extra junk out for you to dig through... because really, there's not much that's more fun than that, is there?

But not just junk: there'll be cool jewelry from our stylish friend Wendy Watson... Betsy Ross wooden flags by Chuck and  Peggy Calhoon...Susan Dunnaway's lovely Kansas photography... neat jug lamps made by Jacquie Richards... and of course, as our pals at Brickhouse Antiques put it, they'll all be bringing "our kind of crap", too.  I've been reading through the vendors' lists, and I'm ready to do hand-to-hand combat over a number of their junk treasures: just watch me climb up and over the crowd to get to the small kitchen cabinet that Don and Susie are bringing!  Don't get between me and Debbie's old sled! This junkin' is SERIOUS BUSINESS.

There'll be no shortage of good things to eat that day: my sister Kelley from YUM Bakery and Cafe is planning a wonderful farm lunch, all wrapped up in a red gingham bandana... I hear her husband James (a.k.a." Mr. Pie" in our family) will be serving up homemade goodies... Julie from Kitchen Gallery is planning
bunches of Summer-fresh food samples (more about that later)... and our our new neighbors at the soon-to-open SWEET! Cake and Candy Supply will be doing a FUN demo with antique chocolate molds.  Can't wait to see what Cindy and Susan have dreamed up.

I'll be blogging more previews of the sale this week, so stay tuned... you'll want to scope out the goodies.
