Junk Style meets Farmhouse Style...hook rack

If you follow me on INSTAGRAM or FACEBOOK...you've probably already seen my "Junky Farmstyle" hook rack.  That is a style isn't it? ;)

Hallway Gallery Wall...repurposed signs and more

I love collecting things to make a "statement"...

License Plates and Crate Side...up the stairs...

I just realized that when I shared my Family Room redo the other day I forgot my favorite part...

...these license plates and crate sides going up the stairs.

The Family Room Redo...pipe shelves, arrows, streets signs and more :)

Hello friends, is anyone still following along?

I've been a bad blogger lately.  Life is busy and I'm feeling led in other directions right now.  Hope you understand...

I decided I should stop in and show you my family room redo.  Its been "mostly done" for a while now.  I've been "tweaking" here and there...and plan to tweak some more.  Been there?

My husband made the pipe shelves...and I filled them up with fun finds, crates and tool boxes for storage.

Super Simple Junk Christmas Tree...

I think this simple junk tree was "meant to be"...

A Cheerful Fall Vignette...

You might remember this little stacked drawer shelf for my old COFFEE STATION.

When we redid our kitchen it lost it's spot to my Mommy Central...

  And now it moved to a new bright sunny spot near the front door.

At Christmas...seeing beauty in unexpected places...

Merry Christmas dear friends...may you continue to see beauty in unexpected places.

Like a manger...in a stable.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be on his shoulder: and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

God bless, 

Crates and a Plate Christmas Tree...obsessed...

OK friends, I'm just going to go ahead and say it early on...I am OBSESSED with salvaged and re-purposed tree ideas this year!!

I've already shared a couple...

First there was the POST CARD RACK turned PHOTO HOLDER TREE.

And next there were the INSULATOR TREES.

Now I want to show you my crate tree.

I fell in LOVE with the crate tree that Laura from Finding Home made last year.  That's where my inspiration came from.  

See her original version (among other great handmade gift ideas)...

HERE.

Thanks Laura!!

For mine I started with a yardstick.

Then I used small screws to add some crates I already had in my stash.  I also added a license plate for fun too.

The yardstick was the perfect length...even a little extra for a "trunk" at the bottom :)

The finishing touch is a star ornament I bought at an occasional sale last Christmas.

And now is hangs nicely in my partly decorated "sitting room".

Are you "obsessed" with unique tree ideas too??

 

If so, check out my Pinterest board...

"Lots of CHRISTMAS TREES" 

...for more FUN re-purposed, salvaged and just plain clever tree ideas.

Layered Fall Door Decor...junkers version of a "wreath"...

You might already know that I love unique wreaths for my front door.  They can be round...but they don't have to be.

Here is what I came up with for Fall this year.

I started by attaching a few license plates together with twine.

I took the belt off of this tool belt...and added some more twine to hang it.

That "straw" is a hand broom.

Tucked in a silver "server" and clipped on some fall leaves...I "ENJOY" fall.  Can you tell?

That little pumpkin fit into the "hammer holder" perfectly.

And finished it off with some button magnets and book page embellishments.

So that's what hanging on my door these days...layers of fall junk goodies.

What do you have on your door?

Fall Mantel 2013...just can't wait any longer...

I LOVE fall...and whenever I can, I like to decorate with natural fall elements.  Real leaves, fresh picked pumpkins and gourds.

I've been waiting "patiently" for the leaves to change around my house.

Last year at this time I was out there "harvesting" until my arms were full for centerpieces for a women's event at church.

Yesterday I finally gave in and gathered the few that I could find and clipped them here...

...and there.

Can you tell the pumpkins and gourds are "faux"?  I grabbed them while shopping for groceries the other day.  I'm thinking when I can get my hands on some real ones I will mix them in.  Who knows, might make my fall decorating a little more "frugal" in the future??

We added these license plates this fall...that big space has always bothered me, but I never had the "right thing" to hang there.

My husband and I will celebrate our 13th anniversary on Oct. 7th...so I added a favorite photo for fun.  "Personal touch" :)

A Couple More Drawer Shelves...and a "coffee station" gone crazy!!

It all started with a couple more drawer shelves...

...and turned into a coffee station gone CRAZY :)

I had my husband help me hang and couple more shelves today...

It started innocently enough...

A couple of drawers on the wall...add a metal pan and a cabbage slicer for photos.

Throw in a bottomless crate, a couple of clocks and some blue bottles and pitchers.

But it still needed "something"...

...enter a couple of license plates and a cool yardstick...MILK, CREAM, EGGS...perfect :)

And then the thought..."I've always wanted a "Coffee Station".

And then of course those little built in shelves needed a "tweaking" to coordinate.

Coffee time?

Or are you a "tea person"?

Remember my little K-cup stand?

Not coffee time?  Just close it up...

Does that ever happen to you??  "Snowball effect"?  I'm kinda "famous" for it at my house.  My husband's exact words were "Whoa, that's a lot".  He'll get used to it...and then I'll start "tweaking" again!!
