Hardware Store Love

leevallet

The Lee Valley early Christmas gift catalogue showed up in my mailbox today and it reminded me how much I love this store. I am so sure I could spend a good part of the morning (if not more) looking through things, imagining what I could make with all the veneers, hardware, and tools. Shown below: Hinges, veneers, router letter template, crown molding hanger and cast iron wall bench & table legs. There's so much to take in (note their catalogues are all online); an artist/designer's dream!

We always think that when we win the lottery, one of the first things we will do is go to the Lee Valley store and say "one of everything please."

oh my god, I love lee valley so much! the hardware is like candy to me! Their gardening and woodworking catalogs are equally awesome and they are super nice, I've always received great wonderful customer service and great products! (I swear they didn't pay me to say that, but if they want to, I'll happily take store credit!)
