EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the early 1950s with this charming photograph of a Brighter Homes decorating store, circa 1953. The quaint shop, located on a bustling street, is filled with an array of DIY decorating essentials, inviting passersby to enhance their homes with the latest trends. The storefront is adorned with an enticing display of wallpaper samples, showcasing vibrant floral patterns and geometric designs that were popular during the era. The window, framed by wooden window frames, offers a sneak peek into the shop's interior, where rolls of fabric, paint brushes, and other decorating supplies are neatly arranged on the shelves. A car and a bicycle parked outside the shop add to the scene's authenticity, highlighting the convenience of the era when errands could be run with either mode of transportation. The Eastman's Dyers and Cleaners sign, located next door, adds to the bustling energy of the street. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the simplicity and charm of the 1950s. The Brighter Homes decorating store represents the DIY spirit of the time, where homeowners took pride in enhancing their living spaces with their own two hands. The shop's inviting display continues to inspire us today, reminding us of the joy and creativity that comes with home decorating.
