Do you have something that expresses your personality from the curb? Perhaps you have one of those Tiny Free Libraries? A birdbath or yard ornaments? Special flowers beds? A vertical garden? We love to walk in neighborhoods and see how people decorate, or in some cases, what they've inherited from previous occupants. The above street sign is located in the Glenwood neighborhood. We suspect that the ornament is a relic from previous decades. We actually found one of these cast iron, spinning wheel plaques on eBay.
The 1407 sign reminded us that it is safest to have your street number clearly visible from the road. There is actually a law in North Carolina stating that street numbers must be visible from the road on residential homes. This house has it covered. Likely, the spinning lady gives us a hint that previously someone who spun yarn and likely knitted or crocheted. With yesterday's temperatures in the mid-60s, it was perfect weather to get out and explore neighborhoods. Today should be warm and sunny, too.
Happy Wednesday!
