Soccer-moms-turned-business-partners Ki Nassauer and Sue Whitney scour salvage yards, city clean-ups, and even abandoned grocery stores and bowling alleys, looking for trash to rejuvenate into striking home decor.
The rubbish renovators operate JunkMarket, a retail store and workshop where they also conduct wildly popular auctions for recycled nostalgia. Online sales swell as more than 14,000 customers clamor for one-of-a-kind furniture and whimsical accessories.
In 2004, the JunkMarket girls debuted a new gift line in Target Stores. Popularity has spurred a column for Country Home magazine, and Nassauer and Whitney also appear on national and regional television shows. In addition, they offer junking seminars for avid followers who are inspired by eclectic tastes from the junking underworld.
