More moments captured by Cary Burnett

 

I just received the photos from Burnett Photography and they are AMAZING!  Here are a few of my favorites.  Cary does such an amazing job and I have to say that she once again captured the true soul of Funky Junk!  Thank you Cary, for your talent and for being a part of this amazing "Family"!

I am so grateful Cary captured this moment.  I took a second to look over the show and see that it had all come together, I am still in awe of all my vendors and their talent.  I love Funky Junk!

 

Breaking in "Big Jim"

The week of Funky Junk Old Blue Had a bit of heart failure and could not make the haul to and from the show.  I came to the realization that I needed to get a "new truck" for this junking business.  With a heavy heart I went on my search...it took about 5 minutes on Craigslist.  I found a truck over in Colville from an amazing family that get this...owns a Farm and an Antique store The Front Porch Farm !!  It was Serendipity!  A Caribbean Turquoise color, I named him after Jimmy Buffett...So I am proud to welcome "Big Jim" to the farm!  We wasted no time trying out the 4 wheel drive, We made trip after trip up the mountain for firewood.  I love this time of year, the smell of firewood and the time we spend in the woods with family and friends is something I have always cherished.  We came home with a good load, clear heads and the comfort in knowing we had made a good purchase in Big Jim!

Funk Junk 12, That's a Wrap!

It was indeed the BEST Funky Junk Labor Day weekend I could ask for!  Not just because it was only a couple minutes from my house in the most beautiful valley in the world!  But because it was everything I have always dreamed of for Funky Junk.  It was a day out in the country, on a historic and well loved farm. A day of music and laughter, food, Junk and friends.  It was a festival of vendors that continued to laugh, and hug and tell stories like a holiday get together.  And it was the shoppers, near and far who came and stayed and came back again!  I really do appreciate every one of you and I hope you know how grateful and happy I am that you chose to Make Funky Junk YOUR destination!  I will cherish the memories of this labor day weekend and look forward to seeing all of you at the next show!  Thanks for the Love!  ~ Jennifer

Meet Tank~ The Funky Junk Dog!

When out on the junking trail or setting up for a show, I see friends who are always excited to ask how much he has grown?  How is he?  Where is he today while I am shopping?  I always assume they are talking about my 2 year old son, Glenn....But then they finish with "TANK!" "I Love that Tank!!".  It always make me smile that such a silly little guy brings so much happiness to everyone he meets.

Tank is our 2 year old Bull-Dachshund.  We picked him out of a litter of puppies from the back of an Oldsmobile at a Thompson Falls MT gas station.  He is a riot!

When we have done shows in the past he has been either in my booth, or out visiting with everyone.

I set out to find a new location and of course Tank came along help with the search.

 

  He is a good "Junkin" dog because he will go on a pick with me and check out an old shed before I go in for any unwanted pests!

I adore my friend and hope you will as well, he will be on site at Funky Junk to greet you or even help you decide on a piece..I would trust his opinion...he is usually right!!  See you soon!
