One More Day!!!

What a fun day we had. Visiting with friends, and sharing our love of all things vintage with friends and neighbors.

We still have a garage full of fun stuff! Come by tomorrow morning and check it out tomorrow before its too late! 8-noon.

Rain or Shine - We Are Ready!!!

Almost Here!!!

The sale is almost here!  Things are really coming together, and we are all feeling the pinch of limited time.

Why is it that the best ideas always seem to come to mind the night before I need those ideas completed!?  Creativity knows no schedule I guess.  A little bit of paint here, some sandpaper over there, and before you know it we each have a truck load of treasures ready to be re-homed.  

Salvaged Gal Tiffani has been working on some cute flower pots that I cannot wait to see.

We will have a ton of old windows this year.  The ones with broken glass have been re-purposed into chalkboards and message boards, other windows have been cleaned up and are ready to be displayed in a new home.

Jill has an adorable table and chairs set, with 8 matching chairs!  She has been hard a work getting them ready, and of course, has had some 'help' from her precious little ones.  

You will not want to miss this sale!

Pretty in Pink!

Introducing Jillian - our newest, and most colorful Salvaged Gal! :)

My name is Jillian. I am a stay at home mother of two precious little girls. Throughout my life I have always been creative and crafty. These traits were always encouraged and grown by my mother. I started young learning to cross stitch, which led to crochet, which led to sewing which led to many other skills I have developed through the years. 

One skill I developed early into my marriage, was finding "steals and deals" on furniture that most people would trash and turning it into something I loved. Being new to Spokane when I was first married, I had zero furniture and grand ideas. Through yard sales, the free section on Craigslist, and friends giving away their broken things I was able to have projects that would build my relationship with my husband and make my home beautiful. 

Repurposing a piece of furniture is such a sweet time for me. It is a quiet place, with every brush stroke I can praise God and be in a time of prayer. It brings me joy to reflect on the love of Christ. Just as I can make a broken chair new, so does Christ work on our hearts. 

2 Corinthians 5:17 says: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. 

God scrapes the gunk and sands us down to reveal a new creation!

Meet Tanya!!!

We have a new Salvaged Gal this year, we would love for you to meet Tanya! She is always full of smiles and hugs for all. Be sure to look for her at our sale.

Here is her short bio so you can get to know her!

My hobbies have morphed over the years. Scrapbooking turned into card making turned into making custom baby frames for all my friends having babies. It has been fun to expand my creativity over the years. Last year, my friend and I had the crazy idea of being vendors in a local farm-craft show and in doing so, I started expanding my hobby yet again into thrifting and finding treasures and transforming them. 

Repurposing things is such a fun hobby, but it is also such a neat picture of what Christ has done! I grew up in a Christian home, but tried to live holy on my own, not depending on Jesus and what He did on the Cross for me. It didn't work and I was a wreck. Christ was gracious and saved me before college, and has done such a huge work in my heart (and continues to). Just like we change the characteristics of a picture frame, or of a desk by rebuilding and sanding and painting, Christ does the same work in His children's lives. He sands off the rough edges and sin and changes us into something beautiful, all for His glory! 

Thank you Jesus!!!

We are excited to announce.....our next sale will be April 29th and 30th, 2016!

Gorgeous lights from an old WWII Air National Guard Hangar...

New Window Design

I love how some windows come together.  I had found a sample size jar of paint in my cupboard that I had never used, it sorta looked gray, but turned out to be a nice soft blue.  

I added a shelf to the window, and then brought it inside to decide what vinyl design to put on.  Often times I stare at a window for awhile, waiting for it to 'tell' me what to put on it.  What that really means is that I cruise Pinterest until I find something that suits it!

And so we land on the end result for this window.
I am loving the dainty flowers and simple font for the verse.  

I will have a large selection of windows to choose from at the sale, 

come find the one that is perfect for your home!

The windows are really starting to stack up!!!  Lots of fun designs waiting to be seen at the sale!

Old Chairs - New Purpose!

I love to find old things and give them new life and purpose.  An added bonus for me is that my hubby gets involved too.  He is quite handy to have around to fix this or that, and usually has fun ideas and opinions as well! Occasionally I even catch him commenting that something is 'cute'! 

We had these old chairs hanging out in our garage for awhile, and I knew they needed a bit of work to be functional again.  After an examination by the hubs, he deemed them not fit for human use anymore :(  What to do!

After a little thought I decided to turn them into yard chairs to display some plants or flowers.  My hubby was quick to help me cut the holes in the seats just right, and with a fresh coat of paint they are now ready to be in someone's yard instead of a dining room!

We have many more furniture items and windows that we are getting ready for the sale, you won't want to miss out!!!

Newest Salvaged Gal

Hi, I am Stacy and I am a Wife and mother of five. I love old things. I love free things. I love to take old and free (or close to free) things and turn them into beautiful things with a purpose. I love that it can be an analogy of my life and what Jesus has done to it. Like an old chipped and rusty enamel container that I can re-purpose as a lovely planter with my favorite flowers or herbs, Jesus has taken me, with all my dings and chips and rusty edges and planted a new heart in me. He can take all my imperfections and marks from living in a fallen world and use them for a glorious purpose. My favorite word is Redeemed. I can redeem a piece of "junk" (or as I like to call it "junque") from ending up in a landfill and fill it with something beautiful and interesting to suit my purposes. Jesus redeemed my life from going to a landfill (or worse) and has done an amazing work of filling it with beauty for His purpose. He gives beauty for ashes. "Fear not, for I have redeemed you, I have called you by name, you are mine.....For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior....you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you." Isaiah 43:1,3-4. One major difference in the analogy......Jesus didn't get me for free. He paid a great price for me...... His life. For that I can't even begin to express my gratitude.
I hope you get to come out to the Salvaged for Good sale and see some of the beautiful things I have redeemed and meet some of the precious ladies God has redeemed.

Wonderful Finds

Here is a preview of some things that Salvage Gal Angie has been gathering up for the sale.
