Attention Northeast Ohio Junkers!


I'm looking to establish a group of like-minded women that have a passion for creating uses from other's castoffs (or junk!).

This group will:
Have scheduled meetups to attend flea markets and/or rummage sales
Exchange creative ideas for refining and reusing discards
Hold workshops using (and learning to use) power tools to convert their junk treasures into fun home decor and accessories
Have guest speakers or take "field trips" to local establishments - junkyards
Take road trips to attend far away junk fairs or flea markets! (ie The World's Longest Yard Sale or Junk Bonanza

If you'd like to share ideas and make friends with like-minded junkin' women, don't hesitate to join! It's Free! Just email junksophisticate@yahoo.com with NE Ohio Junkers' Society in the subject line.

Happy Junkin'

  2. What a wonderful idea! I am from southwest Ohio but I will follow closely to see how this turns out. Maybe I can start one here and we can have a group get together once a year in the middle. Can't wait to see how this goes. P.
