Thank You Everyone!!!

Just wanted to say thanks to those who viewed my Online GS...it was fun!!

Online GARAGE SALE!!

Welcome all to my First ONLINE GARAGE SALE!!!

'Officially' opens Sat and Sun but......

since I am posting my items Friday, early birds are always welcome!!

First Come, First Serve!

There are several pictures posted here, so please be patient if my blog is slow today.

I will accept most anything for payment. Paypal, Money Orders, Checks and yes......

even cash!! (gasp)

I have tried to keep my items on the 'smaller' size so that they will be easy to mail.

I'll be packing all items myself (ok...so I'll make Junk Hunk do it!! lolo) and they will be mailed using the good old Snail Mail Post Office!

(Sorry, no International Transacations)

We live in the country and have the nicest mailman. One who still goes above and beyond duty and he has informed us that USPS are evaluating their payraises based on how many packages/letters, etc. they pick up from residences. This evalustion lasts until March 15th, so we are trying to help him out there!

Items will be shipped after I receive payment. You pay S&H, which will be calculated after I get your Zip Code. If you want to get an idea yourself, my ZC is 38571.

Most of my items are in very good condition. If there are any chips, cracks or what I consider damage, I will be honest with you, but all sales are final. (Except if they arrive damaged due to my packaging error)

NOTE: Most of my items are photgraphed with a red pencil beside them. This is to give you a 'size' idea. And some have my hand in them....modern day measuring techniques! However, if you desire precise information, please email me at: clrudd10@hotmail.com

I have a couple of friends who are also having sales today. These gals are the brain child of this great idea of Online GS, so be sure and check their blogs for goodies, too!

Spread the word and be sure and say hello!!!

I'm Back!!

Happy First Birthday, Jensen Sade Casey!!!!

Here is an 'initial' piece made from different elements. The "S" came from an old metal porch rail and the "C" is an old tricycle fender. She can use the "C" to display a picture or maybe baby shoes....

Wow!

This piece is made from an old meat grease drainer.

Has it really been almost 2 months since I posted a blog?????

We have been feeling under the weather for several weeks now, but I'm finally convinced that I think we're gonna make it.

I promise I will try and do better in the future for more postings more often...bad blogger...shame!

Also, I am toying with the idea of having an online GARAGE SALE sometime in the future....so be on the lookout! It should be lots of fun!! (Thanks to Margo and Mindy for the idea!)

Meanwhile....here's the latest happenings in my junk world.

Grandchild #5 (Grandaughter Jensen Sade Casey), will be celebrating her BIG 1 birthday, February 28th. So....since I'm not your typical Grandmother, you certainly couldn't expect me to give her a 'typical' First BD present, right? Here is the result of 'junkin' fun Grandma wooped up...just for her!

Thanks for stopping by....leave a comment...would love to hear from other bloggers out there!

It's Christmas Time!

Here are a few pictures of some of my Christmas Trees this year. Over the past years, I usually have 13 trees, but this year I scaled down to 6. This year was also the year of repurpose, recycle and economize.

This is an old bicycle wheel with a light and some ornaments. I've received a lot of comments on this fun chandy!

We went out in the woods and cut this great tree branch...wala...another fun 'Christmas Tree'.....the price was right!!

My dining room centerpiece. A nice old gentleman gave this

great rusty toolbox!! He's still shaking his head in desbelief!






Great old clipboards!!! Instant art!

My Junkmarket Tree....Grandkids and Cannines rule!

The dining room...

I collected these glasses over the summer....people couldn't

give them to me fast enough! This would be great if you were hosting a New Year's Party...guests could just untie their glass for a toast!

I hope that you and all of the special persons in your life have a Grand Holiday Season and a Fruitful 2009!!! God Bless from Rust and Splinters!
