Mermaid Emporium - Upcycled Junk and Stuff

08/13/2026

Thought I'd share photos of my "junk" corner -- I used all upcycled curbside finds to create a "country cottage" vingnette around an unsightly hydro mast and utilities area. Easy access, yet concealed a bit. Garden hoses etc. are also coming out that side of wall.

Shout out to Valley Pressure Washing for an outstanding job on our home and garage on the Peninsula here. Peter and Cohen (hope I spelled it correctly!) arrived on time and the place is sparkling after getting all the mildew off the siding etc. If y'all get the heavy dew in the mornings that create the mildew buildup, give these guys a call. (Unfortunately, I didn't think to take before and after pics.) Awesome job, fellas!

Better late, than never! Been meaning to get on here but it's been a hectic start to the New Year.

I'd like to wish a Happy New Year to all, and a big thank you for supporting all our wonderful local artists!

Buying a handmade gift for someone, a gift made with love-infused energy, is very meaningful to both the recipient and the artist! It is unseen hours, unseen loving feelings of creation that goes into each and every piece produced. Thank you for a great 2025, and for your support by buying local. All the best for 2026!
