"Assembled by the masters of junk, this visual, how-to book is overflowing with ideas that are fresh, original and fun! If you are tired of living in a cookie-cutter home that looks like a page from a catalog, then this book is definitely for you." -Danny Seo, author of the "Simply Green" series "In today's desposable world it's refreshing to see the ingenuity and creativity illustrated by Junk Beautiful, where ordinary, mundance or seemingly hopeless items are transformed into fabulously functional repurposed pieces. This book is a must-have for all garage sale, flea market, thrift store junkies!" Tim Luke of HGTV's "Cash In the Attic" "There are some people who can take garbage and turn it into a beautiful work of art or piece of furniture; the Junkmarket Gals are that type of people. In their new book,"Junk Beautiful($21.95, Taunton Press), authors Sue Whitney and Ki Nassauer provide a guide for how they do it. The book offers tips, step-by-step instructions, photos and illustrations to keep you on track."--The Austin American-Statesman "Junk Beautiful," by Sue Whitney and Ki Nassauer (The Taunton Press, $21.95), has some attractive tricks. Probably the most famous junkers in America, the two founded JUNKMARKET, a retail business, and www.junkmarketstyle.com. They are contributing editors for Country Home magazine. Whitney gives several tips for how to avoid bringing home the whole junkyard when you are looking for junk. You should keep a list of what you need, then only buy junk that can be adapted to the cause. Wait for the right piece of junk; don't buy something you don't love just to fill a space. But the oneunforgettable tip on that list: Architectural remnants are like handbags. You can never have too many."--Daily Herald, Chicago "One person's junk is Sue Whitney and Ki Nassauer's treasure. The two flea-market enthusiasts founded Junkmarket, a Minnesota company that specializes in finding new uses for quirky old castoffs. They're contributing editors toCountry Homemagazine and frequent TV guests, and now they're sharing ideas in their new book,Junk Beautiful.The book focuses on rooms the two have made over using recycled trash. In their inventive hands, a steering wheel becomes a lazy Susan, tambourines double as snack holders and old hand drills become hooks for a coat rack. Their refurbished finds all have a vintage feel, but Whitney and Nassauer make them work in all sorts of home styles. nstructions are included for a selection of the projects, so you can try your hand at cast-off creativity, too." --Akron Beacon Journal(Akron, Ohio) "Detailed before-and-after color photos document how to restyle rooms with inexpensive recycled objects; a chicken feeder retooled as a seasonings shelf, a beat-up kitchen island that gets new life as an arts and crafts table and an old flour mill cart that becomes a coffee table. (The book also includes the paint colors used on walls, trim and furniture in the rooms. Nice touch.) Some of the authors' off-the-wall decorating tricks may not be your style -- say, a collection of whisk brooms as window treatment. But the dynamic duo (who are contributing editors to Country Home magazine, regularly appear on TV and run www.junkmarketstyle.com) seem to have bottomless talent for repurposing junk."--Minneapolis Star Tribune, "Assembled by the masters of junk, this visual, how-to book is overflowing with ideas that are fresh, original and fun!
