Creating Beauty from Ashes

Meet debbie...

I'm about vintage, rust, re-purposing, and beauty for discarded items. Isaiah 61 says that the Lord sent His Spirit to give us beauty for what the world may view as worthless.... His beauty for our ashes.
 
I think I was born addicted to the hunt, my Dad always liked going to flea markets and auctions. By the time I was sixteen my room was decorated in reclaimed objects as my house is today. I had to plant a garden so I could make a scarecrow! I approach gardening, like my house, from a collector’s heart. I place the junk first and then look for a plant to complement it. 
 
As I drive my eyes go from left to right not looking for deer or children but Estate Sales or Auction signs and “road kill” (a term I learned from my Dad for found objects while driving). I love taking items discarded by others and recycling them into a new appreciated position in life. I recycled before recycling was a "green" thing to do. Somewhere along the way my addiction lost all boundaries! I’m hooked on junk! I began to hunt for old, rusted, peeling lawn chairs and tables, windows and doors, tools, fences, wagons, barrows and buckets, gates, containers, dressers, beds and tables.
