Junk Bonanza

I did it! I went to the Junk Bonanza this weekend with my junk- loving friend, Meg. It was so much fun! It was a little overwhelming to see the wares of 100 different junk club vendors, but so exciting. Jason watched J and E and I took Kate. Meg and I met at 9 am. I did bring my camera along intending to take pictures to post for all of you to see what you missed, but I didn't even think to pull it out (sorry, Cathy)! I was pretty good and only spent the cash I was carrying with me. I did come away with so many new ideas to add to my already long "to make" list! I did purchase some letters cut from license plates to make a sign to hang in Jonas' room. I'll post that project on Rag Top Originals. Oh, I almost forgot to say that I met Artsymama herself! We talked for a little while. It was great! I almost had her autograph my junk. :-)

Beth, I saw a tote bag that was made like the quilts that you have on Ragtop originals. Someone was carrying it, so I didn't get a pic, but it was bigger than a purse, but smaller than luggage...if that helps...:)
