We are approaching a New Year and I have a feeling it is going to be spectacular! So let’s spend one more Upcycling with Junkin Joe together this year and look forward to what the New Year holds for us. So let’s see your upcycled projects, creative crafts, delicious sweet recipes, home decor ideas, refurbished and painted furniture projects, vintage finds, flea market treasures and everything in between! Everyone is always welcome here…you can even link up your Etsy shops if you like.
A BIG Hi to the Junkin Joe Family! Joe and I want to take this time to thank you for such a spectacular year here at JJ!!! You all made it picture perfect special with all of your imaginative creations …recipes….crafts…upcycled project and oh so much more! We are looking forward to a wonderful New Year together. So let’s take one last look at the year 2013. I know that we are coming to an end of the Holiday Decorations…but let’s take a peek at a few and share some of the recipes that just might make a sweet treat this weekend and for New Years! We will return to regular programming next week!
Well there goes Miss Penny’s vintage Cadillac …packing away the tree for next year! The only thing that would make this picture better is if the caddy was in pink…I’m a Jersey girl you know …can’t you just hear Pink Cadillac by BRUCE in the background ; ) Miss Penny…your vignettes always bring us so much joy!
Miss Aimee Across the pond from Twigg Studios has baked us a Lemon White Cheesecake layer cake…what a sweeeeeeeet way to bring in the New Year!
Maybe this New Year will hold some cool fashion from the past…EstiloFiona will make sure we are up to date on what is HOT in vintage! A tip of our hat to you!
Maybe JJ will come up with some of these fabulous hats once again…do you remember this one!
Tanya from Twelve O Eight is serving up some Peppermint Hot Cocoa …this will keep you warm all Winter long and perfect for a special little gift for anyone that is special!
If you are whipping up some of that Hot Cocoa…why not set up a whole Hot Chocolate Bar including this fabulous Chalkboard by Upcycled Treasures!
Oh yes…there is still time to whip up a batch of Easy Peppermint Bark…wherever you might be off to this Holiday Weekend…I am sure everyone would love a piece of this Holiday Cheer by Danielle over at Silver Pennies!
I also thing that these truffles from Driftwood Gardens would be a fabulous treat too!
I for one will miss all of the toys…the lights…the fun…and the vintage vignettes like this adorable one over at Damita’s Pretty Wrap…but there is always next year to shimmer and shine!
I know that the New Year holds some beautiful projects like this one from Martinel the decoupage Queen
I am hoping that Junkin Joe just might find me a set of these in blue this year…he might come out of semi – retirement for special items!!!!
I think it is going to be a BANNER YEAR!!!
Joe and I would like to toast you all with a Junkin Joe Cocktail in hand and wish you a New Year that is filled with Love…Compassion…Health…Joy….Faith…Friends…Family…Charity…Humanity…Insight…Happiness…Insight…Peace and Inner Peace! Also we wish you all that is good in the world because YOU are special! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hop on over to the older Junkin Joe’s to see more Holiday FUN!!!! We will resume our more comprehensive features next week as we WELCOME the New Year in!!!! Much LOVE to you all and now…Let’s PARTY!!!!
