Ok ladies and gentlemen...
Below you will find pics of the awesome industrial
finds I un-earthed Friday afternoon at the industrial salvage yard.
finds I un-earthed Friday afternoon at the industrial salvage yard.
Be sure to read all the way through to the end to find
out how the life of a junkin' queen can be very hazardous.
Way cool grey lockers.
Funky blue lockers. These are really cool because where the
blue paint is chipping off,
it shows the beautiful TURQUOISE paint underneath.
Hubby fixed that bent leg too.
Diamond plate step stool painted with TURQUOISE paint.
File cabinet drawers painted TURQUOISE.
At some point, turquoise must have been the industrial color.
Tin decimal equivalents chart. I love number graphics...
ok almost any graphics.
I got two of these heavy duty industrial shelving units.
I think these would make funky bar units.
Think of them all loaded up with vintage
bar ware and your fav liquors.
Again with graphics love.
These babies are about 7 feet long.
Laser cut lettering on aluminum.
More signs with laser cut lettering on aluminum.
These are about 2 1/2 feet long.
I think one of these would look cool on the wall over one
of the industrial shelving units (above), used as a bar.
This one I might keep. After all, everyone who knows me well,
knows that I am definitley a
NON-CONFORMING GIRL.
now, (as Paul Harvey would say) the rest of the story...
See these three very large, very heavy locker units.
I orginally had them lined up in the driveway the opposite way.
The front of one, facing the back of another.
I was happily cleaning them and I
had gotten to the last one. I was crouched down,
I was happily cleaning them and I
had gotten to the last one. I was crouched down,
scrubbing the inside of the lockers when the wind
kicked up and toppled the first one over!
Picture DOMINOES...falling...
Yup, all three locker units landed on me! ALL THREE!
Luckily, hubby was working nearby in the barn.
I am left with two HUGE goose eggs on my head
(which, by the way, took the brunt of the falling lockers),
a sore shoulder and some cuts and bruises.
So...off to bed I go, loaded up with Ibuprofen and ice packs!
Tomorrow, it's off to the barn with my finds to set up my space.
I'm hoping that I don't feel like a ton of lockers fell on me by then!
