Collecting salvage

Hello friends:


Our shop is closed for a little vacation, it has been a very busy winter. It will open soon, I promise, with new salvage pieces and new recipes.


Collecting salvage is so much fun, the challenge of making something beautiful and useful again. I love
what people discard because they can't use it anymore, or is broken, shabby, rusty, ugly, in my head it can become a useful piece, just a coat of paint,
a pair of pliers or a hammer and nails, you know what I mean.  Everything has a purpose, don't buy new, just restore it. Start with a small project, and I promise you, collecting salvage pieces and items will be your new hobby.

cool salvage serving piece .  Love the idea:  Serve your pop corn, fruit, cheese, on a n old piece of salvage wood, instead of NEW CHINA!!!!!

this is great in front of the ugly window scene, hide the next door apartment
with a stack of vintage crates, bottles, and architectural pieces, love these

The best apple crates or cranberry crates super organization, lots of room.
You need room for all your treasures, life is family, friends, and salvage
treasures!!!!!
Romantic Rachel Ashwell love the cozy corner, invites reading,
sipping hot tea, listening to music, watching the football in the winter, and more....



Get up and get some salvage treasures,

love
