More Needful Things - Hubbard Hardware

Some of you may remember a series of photos I did of some wonderful old things that sit or hang by an old building on a country road. You can check it out by clicking the Needful Things link below. Every time I go out there I find something interesting that I hadn't noticed the time before.

I wonder what type of hardware came in this box and whose hands put the hardware to use.



The name Needful Things comes from a Stephen King book that has an old antique shop full of.. yep, you guessed it... needful things.

Needful Things Too - Horse Collar

I reckon the horse that wore this collar is long gone.

Needful Things - Rusty Ladle and Leaves

I love this old ladle with the dead leaves but I can't get a good crop on this shot. It doesn't look right as it is. I need to get out and get some more shots from different angles I guess.

Needful Things - Microscope and Thread Spool

Another of the amazing objects displayed around this old building. I thought the spool sitting on this microscope was part of it at first. It blends well.

Old Things and Imagination

You're right Annie. There are still so many wonderful things to see in this old treasure trove.

I would love to know who all used this skate.

I envision an excited 6 year old sitting impatiently while his mom attaches this, and its matching skate, to his shoes. He's grining his six-years-old-with-missing-front-teeth grin and his mom is telling him to be still so she can get them buckled on.

Can you see him?

Old Things and Reflections of Things

Needful Things Revisited

Some of you will remember an old building I found along a country road with lots of wonderful old things hanging or sitting on it. I went back to visit the building again and found things I didn't even notice on the first visit.

These are maybe batteries?


This is the building from an earlier post.
