Bridgeford Hardware
I will always remember the hardware store in my hometown, Greenwood Lake, N.Y. Despite the time of day, it always seemed like dusk inside and I can remember being fascinated by the uncountable bins filled with washers, nails, screws and other unnamed shiny metal things.

That's literal, friends. I am achieving great satisfaction on my hands and knees, cleaning my closet. I've wiped down the walls and the ceiling and the shelves, mopped the floor and am enjoying all the room an empty closet offers. Room for pretty things, lovely things, belongings to enjoy. Organizing handbags and shoes, and skirts … Continue reading Emptying out my closet
