Snapshots from Junk Bonanza


Now we know why everyone raves about Junk Bonanza. Opening day was a blast with a never-ending parade of folks that came to b-u-y.   It was fun to meet Tamarah ,(from Australia!), and Margo.

Vendors loaded their booths with an amazing assortment of unique & fabulous finds. (I hope to have time to shop a little tomorrow.)  When things slowed a bit at the end of the day I ran through and snapped a few photos.  Lots of folks are mimicking the graphics of route signs, but none are nearly as interesting as the real thing.

We hope to visit Hunt & Gather before heading home.  If the shop is half as interesting at their booth here, we are going to have FUN!

By the time I found the Histories booth, many of their wheels had sold. These had a great look.

Would you be surprised to find that you can be assisted by royalty in one booth?

Candyce and Jill are amazing artists...and terrific friends of ours. (It was great to finally have a chance to get together for dinner tonight!)

And finally, everyone needs a good laugh at the end of a long day.  This buyer, (who shall remain nameless), showed us how she intends to re-purpose the reflectors she purchased.  Creativity abounds in Minnesota.
