I Was Inspired By...

This week I was inspired by some of my favorite girls, The Junk Fest Girls from ND.  I even recently had the pleasure of meeting Andrea (although we didn't have time for junking or a glass of wine).

The Junk Fest Girls know rusty, crusty and fabulous and have been inspiring me for some time.
Look at this recent pantry door they created--they give a great tute on it too.

Here is a beautiful, junky display they showed off for So You Think You Can Decorate:

Love this old rusty heater (?) repurposed into a great wine area.

And here is just one picture from their fantastic fall junk fest sale.

When I saw this great centerpiece by Andrea, I knew I needed wanted to make one too.

 I dug around in my junk (neatly organized in a dresser in the garage I'll have you know!) and this is what I came up with.  The main piece is also a canning jar holder, like Andrea's and the candle "holder" is a campfire toaster.

I used doorknobs for added interest and tied a #8 on the side.

Flowers would be great too, but I felt more in a candlelight mood seeing we got 5+ inches of snow today.  I used a piece of a coffee sack as a cloth underneath.  Note to self, don't put the words that you most want to show in the middle of the square that will be covered up by the centerpiece.

Thanks girls for the inspiration and check them out today!
