JOY junk sign!

16 years ago

Birds & Bloom emails it's subscribers& I think anyone else can get it by typing in "Birds & Bloom magazine". Got the email just today & a place called Salvage had made a neat sign. Barn wood or old wood about 10-12 in.tall maybe 3 ft long , huge farm hook for the J ,the center ring of those green things you set your live Christmas tree in(who knew they had any use!!LOL) that is the O ,the Y is a twig in that shape! They tell you what to use for other letters & rusty bike chain can make most letters!! They have a web site too, haven't gone there yet!! Horseshoes are a C & U. Check it out! Jan

I went to their web site, nothing to see until I clicked on their blog!!!!! Oh what fun!! & at end of it are 46 pics of the inside of the studio they had but is now closed. Could look all day!! There is a truck covered with a garden, an easy chair covered with moss & a pillow of greenery!! Lots of fun!! They live in Washington State. They wrote a book that has just come out. How to do junk yourself, so check it out!!Jan

Funny! I got that email too and came to the board here tonight to post it, and found it already posted!

LOVE the sign! I enjoyed the Birds and Blooms website too, never seen it before. Also some pretty stuff in that Country Store catalogue. And now, I'm going back to find the Salvage blog. Thanks for sharing!

I'm not a member either and couldn't find the blog at the B&B site so I googled salvage blog or something or other, don't even remember what, anyway I found it and here's the link for those that can't find it either. I know it's the right one because on the blog there's a picture of a JOY junk sign and an ad for the book. I don't think they would mind me putting a link here. Click on "visit our blog".

Thanks garden2garden for putting on the link, I don't know how to do that yet.I looked at everything on the Salvage site & was ready to give up when I clicked on their blog!!They are going to be up Kirk's way in Spokane before too long. I think they would be interesting to see. Sure had a cute shop! Wish the rain chain of blue bottles showed up better I really liked that! Jan

Somebody here made a rain chain like that... but it was eons ago. She cut off the bottoms of some bottles for a project and ended up making a rain chain out of the tops.

I don't think I saved the picture either.

I still don't see the Joy sign, but I'm ok with that.
