PJ 316 – BEST DIY Salvaged Junk Projects
Every Friday, 7 PM through Sunday 11 PM Pacific
Hey everyone! Welcome back to my version of Disneyland… where you just flat out find the BEST blogland junk projects!
It’s been a creative week around here!
* Two new stencil designs were launched, LUNCH and BAKERY, attached with new projects! Very fun!
* I whipped up a moody winter mantel with buckets and twigs… what do you think of the look?
* I also learned how to clean with my new buddy, KonMari. Is the book worth it? Get my views on this non cleaner type HERE.
NEXT WEEK… bring along all your junky valentines… there will be a special linkup just for it!
So… let’s see what you’ve been busy doing!
Here’s a few over the top highlights from last week…
– – – – –
Upcycled wine bottle chalkboard crate, by Re-do It Yourself Inspirations
After Robin landed a plain, wine crate from a thrift store, she ramped things up 1 million percent (maybe 2) by adding a lid, that doubles as a chalkboard. But it does even more than this… the post shows all!
Excuse me a moment… cover your ears? THIS IS GORGEOUS!!!! Thanks.
Junk assemblage girl, by Vintage with Laces
Meet ‘Office Joy’…. but I’m calling Julia, Master of Junk Puzzle People… wait till you see all she used! I’m so in love… and totally jealous of those rusty highlights. 🙂
Pallet art station, by Kreativ K
Katrin’s desk was a massive dumping station… until a little pallet entered her life. Isn’t this the sweetest idea ever?! Such a space saver, by using the rungs to go up.
Personalized treat heart maps, by Pillar Box Blue
Valentine’s Day is all about personalization. So this map treat idea by Claire is pure genius. Choose special places your gift receiver (HAWAII) adores, and you have one very special gift, that can pocket all kinds of little things!
Wouldn’t these make adorable travel themed ornaments if you were to go somewhere special (HAWAII) for Christmas? You know.. hypothetically and aloha… oops, I mean, all.
Faux reclaimed wood coffee tray, by The Interior Frugalista
Marie came up with such a clever way to make a reclaimed wood tray… without reclaimed wood!
Visit her post for her top secret!
Recognize the coffee stencil? 🙂 You can find it HERE.
Old drawers video game storage cabinet, by My Love 2 Create
You will NEVER guess what lurks behind these cabinet doors Mindi built… other than video games.
Hint: What old drawers?
A leather wallet catchall tray, by Make and Do Crew
Jess wanted to create something out of leather for her husband, material traditionally associated with three years of marriage. An old wallet later, she created this GORGEOUS, sophisticated catch all.
Isn’t it classy?! The richness of leather never gets old! Perfectly soft for a cell phone too.
Old window LUNCH sign, with Funky Junk’s Old Sign Stencils
Old signs sure don’t have to be made with old wood! Using an old window is so much easier. 🙂
LUNCH is a new stencil design, you can find HERE.
Shiplap styled BAKERY sign, by Funky Junk Interiors
Not a baker? Fake it till ya make it with this cute sign that says otherwise!
BAKERY is a new stencil design, you can find HERE.
A moody winter mantel, by Funky Junk Interiors
Striving to simplify, even removing colour was the key element for this rustic winter mantel take! If you love rust, metal, and wood, this one’s for you…

Hi Donna, used your great Grocery stencil again along with the Est 19.. from the Antiques and Collectibles stencil. Old fence boards are treasures. Thanks for PJ 316. Love seeing what you created this week.
