The Divas worked hard yesterday at home doing
those domestic things we do....

BUT...

Today is a new day and we are
"On the Road"!!







Don't you just heart this....

I have got to have one of these adorable trailers!!

Will post pictures tomorrow of our "get-a-way!!"

Popsicle Bar...Who'd A Thought It...



Doesn't this look great!!

This is in New York City at a spot called Poplar....

Gotta go there my next trip to NYC!!
(can't wait!!)

I would love one of pale yellow ones right now. 
This Texas heat is aweful....



Today's Finds....



 Look what I found today!! 

The turquoise chair is really a chair we had in storage and our wonderful painter finally got
a hold of it.  Beautiful....



Great old globe.....
Shabby little table....
Nice maple chair....great bones...
Grain Scoop....
Retro Sunburst mirror...
Old metal mailbox.... 




We are going to make sure this little table is
sturdy and tight.  Then it will be Junk Divas!!

I love this globe but NO, I won't keep it!!

Ok, should I distress this great turquoise chair or leave it as it is?


Hmmmmm......be sure to come by Junk Divas and see what I ended up doing!!

Great Retro "Sunburst" Mirror.
Some minor touch-ups to paint
and it will be ready to go!!

Look at this gorgeous chair.

 The question is.....

To paint or NOT to paint??           PAINT!!

It will be at Junk Divas soon!!




Great wire basket...
Would be great in your kitchen...
laundry room....
toy basket for your kiddo's room...

Junk Divas

Downtown Paris, Texas

120 Bonham Street

My window greenhouse that I made with a
little help from my "handy-man"
husband.

As you can see, there is a small pumpkin vine
growing inside. 
This is about mid-May.

Now it is almost the end of June.  You can tell because my grass is suffering
in the Texas heat.
But look at this pumpkin vine. 

So much fun!!

I'll post pictures of pumpkins when they appear!!

Pencil Sculpture....

Pencil Lead Sculpture

A friend sent this picture to me so I am not able to give the name of the artist.

I sure wish I could because I love this...

It's just incredible!! 

This artist carved each letter of the alphabet

into the lead of each pencil.

I love a good, sharp pencil.

See....I am an addicted "doodler"!

Any conference, any church service, any place where I haved a pencil in hand and some kind of paper, you will find "doodles". 

So, you can see why this artwork appeals to me visually.

BUT... it also appeals to the pencil-loving doodler that I am too!!

Just thought I share this for fun!!



So sorry that I haven't blogged in awhile.

It's been then end of a school year and it just gets crazy.

As a teacher, when I get home from the last day of school,

I am pretty wiped out.

However, all I can think about are all the projects that I want to do

and places I want to travel so I can find more treasures. 

So the next day (Saturday) I go to the Junk Diva shop

and have a great time visiting with our customers and friends.

Sunday, is church day and I love my church. 

It is joy to know that My Jesus loves me, forgives me and is with me daily.

Then Monday.....I don't have to go to school!!

So....why did I get up at 5:00?

Why do I feel like I have to get ready and get things done?

Just the way I am!!

Soon, I will post how my kitchen remodel is going....

My husband has been so wonderful doing all of this "kitchen" stuff.

He is a true HANDY-MAN!!
