I love going to the hardware shop and looking at all the shiny metal things. I wouldn't know what to do with three-quarters of it, but hardware can be so pretty.

Montour True Value Hardware Store. And yes they have everything including creaky wooden floors and nice people.

1855 a store on this site operated as a tinsmith and hardware store. The oldest hardware store east of the Mississippi River. Provided materials to gold miners during the gold rush era.

This hardware store in Tilton NH sure looks like it has seen better times.

A name as solid as the town itself. One left after many have closed. Still a part of the community, still a friend of the folks that shop there. An evolution of needs that has changed over the years but still caters to help us plant a garden, fix a water leak, or paint the house. So happy to see one still standing and functioning like so many before.

You know sometimes you take a picture and it doesn't really go with any of the themes you are working on, this is one of those images. This is one of the bolts used in the framing of our shed. My husband designed and built the shed himself years ago, he is pretty handy!

Homer Hardware. Homer, NY

In Gorham, New Hampshire. Taken with my Pixel 7a in "Night Sight" mode, with the phone held against the glass to reduce reflections.

Gorham Hardware sells not only hardware but camping, hiking, hunting and fishing gear in this northern New Hampshire town of ~2700 people. Independent, small-town hardware stores like this are quickly becoming a thing of the past.

A weathered wall of a closed large hardware store in downtown Mountain View, Missouri. This store had everything you would need to paint the kitchen, plant a garden, or fix your plumbing. A clerk that knew where everything was, and bins of screws and nails. The painted walls have cracked. the glass door is taped up. An awning that used to cover the the sidewalk is now gone and so are the customers.
