IT'S FALL, Y'ALL--TIME FOR AUTUMN JUNKIN' SEASON!

Hey,Y'all! Fall in south central Texas can only mean one thing...well, uh, make that TWO things...FOOTBALL and ANTIQUES WEEK(S)! Since this is a JUNKIN' blog and not a sports blog, you probably know where this is going. :) So load up those shopping carts, grab your best friends and make the trek to where the cow pastures turn into miles of JUNKIN' WONDERLAND! 
Here's how it happens. 

You take some lonely stretch of blacktop winding over gentle hills, past ancient live oaks, and through sleepy little towns. Add a huge pinch of creativity and some of the WORLD'S best antiques and vintage dealers, and like Cinderella's pumpkin turned to glittery coach...Voila!
Buildings along Texas Highway 237 go from this--

 to this!
  From this--

 To this!
From this-- 
to this!
From this--
to this!
From this-- to this!
 
From this--
to this!
From this--to this!





 Add some genuine Texas friendliness--
 
 A huge measure of Junk Gypsy magic...

  A whole lotta this--
 
A generous amount of Rodeo Royalty 

 A couple of trailer loads of gorgeous
 Garden Antqs Vintage eye candy--
 


Incredible Sisters Treasures--

 And a whole lot of STUFF you never even dreamed of...YET!






  

















And this is just one little stretch of the road...



 Meet y'all there!

Until next time, 
PEACE, LOVE, AND ALL 
THE GOOD STUFF, SWEET FRIENDS!
