A Visit to ~*LuCkY JuNk*~ Arlington Heights, IL...

OMG!!! ~ OMG!!!

For the LoVe of ViNtaGe FiNds

 Chippy... Rusty... Crusty...  **In As-Found Condition**

Owner Janet McCarthy of

~* LucKy JuNk *~

REALLY NAILS IT!!!

I was first drawn to Janet's keen eye for Time~Worn ViNtaGe FiNds some years back while shopping an Antique Mall she had a booth space in...  I was just trilled that someone else had an "EYE" & Appreciation  for Naturally Time~Worn SHaBBies like I do...

This past Friday, while On-The-Hunt, I found

myself near HER Store **LuCky JuNk**

~ located in Arlington Heights, Illinois...

HONESTLY, No pictures I have ever seen, or the ones I took,

 can depict how Over-The-Top Fab this Store Is!*!*! 

YOU NEED TO VISIT TO **EXPERIENCE THE SPACE**

Although it's obvious that Janet's main passion is her 

naturally time~worn vintage finds, she is a smart

 business woman, appealing to many people's styles...

A Line of Chalk Paint,  Local Artist Creations, along

  with hosting various Workshops are her key to success!!!

Of Course I Netted aChiPPy!-SHaBBy! 

ViNtaGe F*I*N*D...

LoVe my Zinc Bottom Tray w/chippy-white wood edges!*!*!

Although it's quite a trek for me to get to her shop,
