De-Junked Turns Stuff Into Art

cover70108.jpgDe-junked makes affordable art out of your junk drawer, vacation ephemera or anything else you can't get rid of but don't quite know what to do with. Best of all, you're not even beholden to buy it.

Based in St. Paul, it's a pack rat's salvation and a creative way to commemorate an event, passion or time in your life (or someone else's).

 
 

Here's how it works:
You send a shoebox worth of whatever to De-junked. They make it into a sculpture and email you a photo.

If you like it, you buy it for $50. If you don't, it's theirs. And probably soon to be on etsy.

This could be a great dad, grad, mom or moving gift, or a milestone birthday conversation piece.

If you love something, set it free. If you really loved it, you'll buy it back. If not, at least you don't have to be the one to put it in the recycling.
