If you follow me on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, you may have already seen my vintage clock shop sign. My husband an I bought it on our little anniversary getaway to the Central Iowa Junk Jaunt a few weeks ago.
I purchased it at the Broadstreet Market in Story City, Iowa.
I thought you might like to see it in its new home.
I couldn't resist surrounding it with a few clocks and CLOCK LADIES.
I love every perfectly, imperfect detail :)
This repurposed gauge was another fun find...I put it up on a shelf in my new KITCHEN.
Because...it's cool and I haven't seen a white gauge before.
AND because...it was made and sold by a 16 year old "junker" in Iowa.
He was set up outside of one of the shops in Story City. He had a great eye for unique junk and was so excited about re-purposing that I couldn't resist cheering him on :)
I LOVE buying things from fellow artists and "repurposers"! It just "pays" it forward from all of those who buy and encourage by little business.
So PASS IT ON...support CREATIVITY :)
Chat soon,
Such a fabulous display!! Love it all!! Old clocks are so neat and love the gauge too!! Have a lovely day Laurel!! xo Holly

Your displays are always so fab! The clocks are not only pretty, but for me, represent the future, the past and the present. Nostalgia warms the heart. Thanks for opening your lovely home and sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteGreat setup as always. The old sign is a total hit and the clocks, gauge and everything else go so well with it all. Your taste and style continue to entertain Laurel!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the story of your purchase from the 16 year old artist!! I hope he goes forward in his life with what he is doing. Creating is such a gift. Your creativeness rocks too Laurel and I love that you share with us you always inspire me!! XOXO Love Fran.
