"Mystery Junk" for Christmas...mini trees and more insulators...


Does anybody know what this is?  
I have no clue what it was...

But add a perfectly chippy salvaged gray trim piece...

...and a little snow and some mini trees.

I made these little votive holders a few years ago by gluing a little ceramic insulator to a mini mold...perfect spot for a tiny tree :)

And you've got yourself another simple, junky decorating idea.

I gave it a place of "honor" in the guest bathroom :)

Our Home Tour...creating "collected charm"...

I thoroughly enjoyed the tours this week over at The Shabby Creek Cottage so I decided "Why not?"

  

Here's a little peek around at our house...

(There are lots of pictures so I'll keep the commentary to a minimum and add links for more info when available) 

Rusty junk everywhere...

Paint Stirrer Flower

Junk on the Front Porch

Our Chippy Front Entry Light

I still love our little entry "bench" made from a material stand from a factory.

The sitting room...

"Inspiration Corner"

The Great Room

Spring Mantle

I love unconventional side tables...

...like this one we made from an Old Drawer to End Table.

Spring Centerpiece

Benches to Book Shelf...and a window seat.

The Kitchen... 

I cheated in this room...these are old pictures.  The kitchen needs a little "TLC".  I'll do another post when I like it more :)

Some Outdated Fridge Fun...with chalkboard paint.

Old Ladder "Wrap Station" 

Heading up to Our Room

"Big Girl" Ladder Bed Canopy...my most popular post EVER!!

We recently added some "Chippy Charm" to our Upstairs Bathroom.

My son's room is in need of a "bigger boy redo".  Here are a couple of things we added recently...

Metal Ladder to Hook Rack

Printer's Tray Lego Figure Display

"Sweet Details"...in our little girl's room.

The Family Room...

This lower level is REALLY hard to photograph...I'm still a "point and shoot" girl.  Forgive me :)

The "Guest Bathroom"...

Wine Crate Shelves

Chippy Vent Cover Magazine Holder

The 3 Season Porch.

Garden gate window valance.

A cool old church sign purchased from my friend Jan Berg aka Summerspell...look for her at Junk Bonanza!  Amazing person...super COOL junk!

  

Heading out to the Deck.

Old Crate Planters

Vintage Headboard Patio Fence

My "new" "Pallet Perch"

Back at the fire pit...rustic, just how we like it :)

I recently got the courage to show you my quirky little Potting Area.

Before you go...
Have you seen my little Junk Shed??  It's just storage for now...but someday I'm dreaming of a sweet little studio :)

That pretty much covers it...whew! 
A little peek into our happy little world...thanks for stopping by!!

Now click over to visit some other homes too...and better yet link up your charming space :)
