Summary: Great pics and ideas
Comment: I picked up a junk market magazine at a second hand book store, loved it, and was then introduced to the "junk sisters". I looked at stores for more books they may have but did not succeed. So, I searched the internet and found this one and I love reading it and I get new ideas everytime I thumb through it. Definitely a must have for "fellow 'junk' treasure hunters!"

Summary: Not So Simple Stuff
Comment: I recently reviewed this book for my ladies group. Some interesting things here, but the practicality of much of it all eludes me. While this may very well be a fun hobby for the 50-something authors (post-retirement perhaps), the costs for the average person to travel around the country to find some of this so-called junk - if one can even find some of it, combined with the costs of shipping it back to your home and then more costs to transform it into newer, improved pieces of junk seem quite prohibitive to me, and overly complicated I have to think. Since many of these items appear to have similarities to various items sold by Pottery Barn and other chic home boutiques, it would seem most practical to simply go this route and spare yourself all other hassles, time , and costs. Just an opinion from someone who bends toward keeping life as simple and uncomplicated as possible. Each to their way as they say.

Summary: GREAT BOOK WITH LOTS OF GOOD IDEAS!
Comment: I bought this book for my daughter who is re-vamping an old house built in 1936. She wants an old farmhouse look and is excited about all the ideas this book has inspired.

Summary: great great great
Comment: I can look through this book time and time again and never get tired of it. The book has PLENTY of project ideas and even explains how to do a few of them step by step. It's more of a place to look for inspiration than a step by step guide, though, so if you want something more instructional this may not be it. For me, it was perfect because they have SUCH unique, original, inventive uses for junk.
The book doesn't just give little project ideas to drop in around the house, it actually shows how you can create several different looks and styles for a living space using...JUNK.
It's just great. One of my favorite books to browse through for inspiration.

Comment: They inspired me to think out of the box. I like the pictures and the step by step instructions... although you have to modify it for the stuff you have on hand.
