Junktion furniture is all made from unwanted items that had been left in the trash. For Junktion, the saying "one man's trash is another man's treasure" couldn't be any truer! Their furniture has been made from bathtubs, window frames, car seats and suit-cases.
Junktion furniture can be made out of practically anything. The seating arrangements made from old school desks and chairs made of window shutters are quite compelling! The pieces all look relatively easy to make. Anyone up for a DIY project?
