Mad Mary's Junk Yard

I like to repurpose junk and turn it into art. My current obsession is angles for your home and garden! Using old spindles, antique ceiling tin and rusty old junk. Creating is my passion and also my therapy!

I have several OAK PEDESTAL TABLES sitting in my garage just waiting for me to do something creative with them. If anyone out there is looking for one give me a shout! My thoughts for one of them are to paint the base in a stark, glossy white and stain the top in a dark, espresso stain. I saw this in a magazine and loved it. Check back for pictures.

A family wanted their oak table updated. Finished it in a black with distressing. Added a dark, walnut stain over the top. They should enjoy their family dinners for years to come!

About Me

My photo
Mad Mary
I've raised two daugthers who are now off at college and I'm starting a new chapter in my life. Went back to work full-time but in my spare time I love walking, boating, spending time in my yard and garden and tinkering in my garage painting neglected pieces of furniture. I love the idea of not buying new and recycling an old dresser, desk or table etc..... the thrill of heading out to garage sales and getting that GREAT find!! I'm not happy if I don't have a project. My recent obsession is making angels for your home and garden.
