Junkin Weekend!

A very fun 3 day junkin weekend! Inspiration.....

Friday, we started out at West End Architure, then onto Found Things in the East Village. I love this store, the owner is such a wonderful lady who is so friendly and you know when you leave that she is totally enjoying her job. We stopped to eat lunch as we needed to take a break from all the stairs. Then we went to the Majestic Lion on 2nd Ave where we found our first purchases. A great day of finds!

Saturday, we spent the day in Winterset. We started out at an auction that was WAY out of our league! Old time jugs going for as much as $1,000 is not what we were looking for! On to the square! We parked and walked around the square and stopped by every shop. It was awesome. Two junk stores, two Art stores, lunch at the Copper Cow and then on to two antique shops. We found several items to come home with us! I was on the search for printer drawers and came home with 3 of them... I already have one transformation started. I will be posting it's progress. Love to go junkin'!

Today we are headed back to Des Moines for some mall shopping and of course we will be stopping at Barnes and Noble for a new magazine. Also Lowes for some important junkin supplies; hooks, paint, wax, and brushes.

Have a wonderful day and I will be sharing pics next time.
