As a young girl, Mary would rummage through all the junk at her dad’s junkyard and salvage any items that she could either refurbish, revamp, or turn into art. That, along with her love of garage sales, turned her into a real thrifty girl at a young age. The quirky, fun-loving young woman has always been a free spirit who can find the beauty in other people’s junk.
