You’re officially invited to a party… [Offbeat Homes]

Translate Into:

Not my party - you all would be a lot of people to fit into my little house.

My blogger friend Peggy is having the world’s weirdest little party over at her new blog Junk Creation though, and frankly, the party could use some real people. So far the only attendees have been some straw dispensers. I said it was weird.

Junk Creation is a b5media blog that Peggy took over about two days ago. It was already a cool blog, but since Peggy is my co-blogger at http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/b5media/OffbeatHomes/~3/263646524/Tree Hugging Family, I can assure you that knowing Peggy, this blog will rock in a much more hard core way now.

In Peggy’s words, Junk Creation will be covering:

J • Retail junk creations for you, your home and your yard or balcony

J • Junk toys for children, pets and wildlife

J • Junk book reviews. There’s an awesome scarecrow book I want to tell you about soon. Yard people aren’t just for autumn anymore.

J • Reuse that Junk! The only thing that belongs in the trash is used cat litter. Some people like the natural litter for mulch though.

J • Junk artists. Now, these people really know how to reveal the inner beauty of junk.

J • Junk projects. We’ll look a some doable, usable junk projects from around the web and also some from my head. Forgive me though, my table saw is in storage. (Seriously, it is since I live in an apartment).

Yes sir, it’s your basic junk lovers party. Or right now, it’s your basic straw dispenser lovers party. In any case, Peggy is a great blogger, with a huge focus on green issues, and that’s to Junk Creation’s advantage. So visit her party, read the blog, and let her know what you think.
