Description
One person's trash is another's treasure, and this cache of creative ideas shows how to turn those flea market finds into savvy home decorating accent pieces. Features more than 45 fascinating and fun projects, including teacup gardens, guest baskets, window treatments and fab furniture projects. Crafters of all skill levels can use several techniques, including painting and sewing, to transform their finds. Cheryl Fall, a highly experienced junk maiden, describes the thrill of the hunt, spelling out the differences among flea markets and tag, barn, garage and estate sales and how to get the best value. She also explains how to go for the free stuff in "dumpster diving" escapades.
