Hello From Your New Junk Blogger

First off, junk can be beautiful! You’ll see.
I’m very happy to be here as the new Junk Creation blogger. Over the next few days, I’ll be adding a different twist on Junk Creation. I think it’s called nesting.
Here’s what to expect (but not all at once since I have to breathe):
J • Retail junk creations for you, your home and your yard or balcony
J • Junk toys for children, pets and wildlife
J • Junk book reviews. There’s an awesome scarecrow book I want to tell you about soon. Yard people aren’t just for autumn anymore.
J • Reuse that Junk! The only thing that belongs in the trash is used cat litter. Some people like the natural litter for mulch though.
J • Junk artists. Now, these people really know how to reveal the inner beauty of junk.
J • Junk projects. We’ll look a some doable, usable junk projects from around the web and also some from my head. Forgive me though, my table saw is in storage. (Seriously, it is since I live in an apartment right now.)
As Gayla mentioned, you can also find me co-blogging with Jennifer Chait over at Tree Hugging Family. So, of course, I’m going to be as green as I can here at Junk Creation. What we don’t use for junk creation, we’ll recycle. Deal?
Oh, and that thing on the ladder is Choco, my kitty. I took that photo when we were fixing up our 1950s house that we later sold. The other part of that “we” is husband Michael. Yeah, that table saw was only used by Michael. I admit it.
And where are my manners? Please leave a comment to introduce yourself. I’d love to hear from all the regulars.


































Well, look at that, you have a fan already - me. I’m not a regular, although I do like this blog. I will be a regular now however. Congrats, I’m sure, knowing you, that this will be pretty cool.
Yay, my first commenter! Thanks Jennifer.
I’m excited to see what you come up with, Peggy. I’m gone, but not gone…
(Seriously, I’m liking the energy and variety you’re bringing to the blog already!!)
Hi Joshua. Thanks! I’m a busy planner bee right now, but I’ll unleash the posts soon. : ) Do come back.
I’m a regular reader. Almost since the beginning. But not at all a regular commenter. At least not yet…
Hi Sigrinn. I remember visiting your site when Joshua posted about your CD cover. Thanks for commenting.
lol, this looks cool! I love it!
