I dedicate this series of books to my Mom, Wally Terry and Karen Davis. I have always loved getting lost in projects that transform themselves right in-front of your eyes. Going to Flea Markets, Antique Stores, Thrift Stores, Junk Shops and of course Storage Auctions to find treasures is one of the only past-times that totally takes my mind off of all things happening in the world. One man’s/woman’s junk is another man’s/woman’s treasure is so true as we all have different tastes in life on what pleases our palette.

I hope you enjoy the journey that these books will take you on and find time to get lost in such a simple process in life…a bit of elbow grease to customize junk into treasure.
