What will it be like?

What will it be like when you take a ghost town....




Fill it with plenty of true blue junkers....

We are so honored...

Gosh we are blushing at the thought that our FANS love our Junk Salvation shows enough to write about them to National magazines like Flea Market Style!  BIG ((hugs)) to all of you, especially Diane Huneger.

Diane, we hope some day you will bring "Alice" your vintage trailer to one of our shows, we will give you a special spot to proudly display her.

Don't forget our next show is in the Austin, TX area. We will be filling an old western town with bunches of junk and loads of  junk queens to hunt thru it 
on April 27 & 28.

Junk Salvation Hillsboro Feb 2012


Most people have heard of Portland for it's environmentally friendly attitude. If you have never experienced a trip to the Portland area antique markets like Monticello and Stars then we highly recommend it for all treasure seekers. Once a year our Junk Salvation Vintage Market hits the Washington County Fairgrounds and  It’s really almost impossible to explain the mass of vendors and shoppers brimming with treasures coming from all over the Pacific Northwest. The market only lasts a day and a half so its a flurry of buying and selling the most coveted vintage items. 


For us, this sort of non-stop shopping and hunting is fun. We love trying to figure out what odd trinkets were meant for and hearing stories about unique pieces from the vendors. The characters you meet and the variety of objects you find at an event like this is extraordinary. 
Here's a small sampling of what we saw...


 Happy Junkers!

 Excited shoppers!


 Great displays!
We have it all at Junk Salvation!

Serena and Heather!

From left to right, Heather, Dixie, Serena and Linda.

Holy Moly....were we thrilled to receive the news on Friday that 
Serena Thompson of the Farm Chicks and Heather Bullard 
of Heather Bullard, LLC were going to grace us with their presence at our lil ol 
Junk Salvation show in Hillsboro, Oregon the next day. 
We admire both of these ladies for their accomplishments and their empowerment to women all over our fantastic JuNK nation.  We chatted about the show and where else to go in the Portland area for a "JuNK FiX", then we quickly captured the opportunity to snap this pic with them. 

Thanks to Serena and Heather for stoppin' by our Funky Junk Sisters Hillsboro Show! We will have more pics of all the SwEEt TrEasUReS and JuNKtAStIc VeNDoRs soon!

Much Junk Love, 
Linda & Dixie
