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!

SOLD: I purchased this typical, cherry finished table and stripped it. I loved the look of the wood unfinished so I left the top and applied a protective wax to it. Painted the legs and base in a natural color called Jute and distressed it. I think it came out looking really cool!! $65

  • I have two oak tables just waiting for a new home! Will paint and refinish them any way you want. Start your family traditions around one of these tables. One table has three leaves.

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.
