I knew that attending Junk Bonanza would be fun, but I didn’t realize what a creative pick-me-up it would be! (Well, after I slept for 12 hours and lounged around for half a day.) Once I was rested, that creative spark got me going. I was ready to rip up carpet and jack out some tile! But, those are all … Read More
