ARTful: using or characterized by art and skill

Salvage: to rescue or save especially from wreckage or ruin


[ARTful] Salvage was born from a love of creating, repurposing and salvaging. I simply abhor seeing perfectly "useful" items headed for the landfill or tucked away in a cardboard box, never seeing the light of day. I believe there is always beauty to be found, even under a layer of rust or a coating of dust. I see scratches, dents or imperfections as badges of honor to be worn proudly. I have a great love for the history, story and life of a piece. We lovingly dream up ways of restoring new life to these discarded and neglected fragments of life. I am glad you are here and hope you will come again often. Please make yourself at home; friends are always welcome. I'd be thrilled to hear from you and get to know you better.

A Thrifting we will go.....

We have been having fun thrifting and yard saleing the past 2 weekends.
[Don't you like how I just make up words as I go along?]


Here are a few of our recent finds......keep watching to see what they become! :)  Have you found any treasures lately? We'd LOVE to see them!  You can find our repurposed ART for sale on Etsy and keep us with us on Facebook. Thanks for stopping by.
