Hey Twin Citians! Did you know that the 2011 Junk Bonanza is going on as we speak in Shakopee, Minnesota? I didn't, at least not until yesterday when my mom, who saw news coverage of it, reminded me! So, we made some last second plans, which were set in stone late last night, to attend this morning.
We came...we saw...we left just in time for my boys' naps. (Which left us with maybe an hour or a little more of actually looking at stuff, after you subtract the time we spent letting them burn energy on the playground.) But, I did manage to take lots of photos again this year and made my one purchase, which I'll share with you next week!
In the meantime, here are a few photos to whet your appetites....
I love that this show not only sells really awesome upcycled items, but it also caters to people like me who are looking for interesting found objects to upcycle myself....
...all over the Junk Bonanza are bins and bins of little objects just begging to be used in some cool project...
...vintage and retro and antique, oh my!
Are 'ya drooling yet? I always have to limit the amount of cash in my pocket at this because it doesn't last long. Next week I'll post some of the cool recycled and upcycled finds as well as my own personal purchase! Stay tuned!
