MacJunker!

Oh no, MacJunker!  Your husband brought home some scrap lumber to use as kindling in the woodstove!  It's just sitting there, it's wood.  AND IT'S JUST SITTING THERE!  What are you going to do MacJunker!


Quick, get me a can of gloss white spray paint, HURRY!
Here you go MacJunker!


Good, now I need those little half tea cup thingamabobs we got at the Goodwill a few weeks ago, HURRY!
Okay, MacJunker!


Perfect, now print out some text on the computer, large, that says Coffee .25!  I DON'T CARE IF THERE'S NO BLACK INK IN THE PRINTER!  USE YOUR BLOOD!  Or just change the color on the font page to blue or something. 
Yeah, whatever MacJunker.



TRACE THE WORDS USING A BALL POINT PEN SO THAT THE OUTLINE SHOWS UP ON THE WOOD AND THEN USE A FINE PAINT BRUSH AND FILL IN THE OUTLINE!
Wow, you need therapy MacJunker. 


Now I need a spoon, a couple of screws and a transparent rose decal!  Come ON!  We're almost out of time!
Umm, out of time for what MacJunker?

Forget it!  I'll do it myself!  Jeesh. 
Hey did you watch the season finale of Mad Men, MacJunker? 




What!  Can't you see I'm in the middle...oh yeah!  I did, can you believe Betty left Don for that old guy?   I mean...hey, now quit that.  I have to finish this, almost done...just--this--last--screw.  There, done!




Phew, that was a close one.  
Yeah, you're my hero MacJunker.  yay. 

Smiles from the (wackadoodle) farm,

  2. I did not know that is how you do lettering...in other words, I'm so stealing your tip on that one. You're my kind of Junker, girl! Awesome. That reminds me, I saw a new sign for a Goodwill when I was in Ellsworth the other day that I must go and check out.

  3. One of the best tutorials I have ever read. I, too, am stealing your tip on lettering. I love it. And, I love your sign. Are you keeping it, or are you going to sell it? Come on, which will it be? Hugs, Kathleen

  4. How did you make 1/2 a coffee cup and saucer? You are one smart cookie.

  6. That's a very cute sign, but for the life of me, I can't read the pink font on your site.
