Yes, Lehman's is a hardware store.
But it's, oh, so much more than that!
Shopping there was a true browsing adventure.
So many interesting things, old and new.

Set amid the bucolic farmland of Holmes County, Ohio,
they've been family owned and operated for 60 years now - since 1955.
Lehman's offers "simple products for a simpler life."
Things geared to an old-fashioned world, rich in tradition,
with a solid work ethic and a love for family.
I left with a real appreciation of the slower, country lifestyle.

Old galvanized bins sort nails in many sizes.
Every hear the phrase "penny nails?"
If you need a cork, this is the place to find the right size.
I liked seeing the use of so many old, antique display shelves and fixtures.

Now, over to the kitchen area.
Have you ever seen such a selection of ladles?
Beautifully handcrafted rolling pins.
Pick a baking sheet, any baking sheet!
How about a plastic bag dryer?
Lotions & Liniments
Scrubs, Salves & Soaps
Amish-made items such as walking sticks, leather belts,
baskets, ice cream freezers, wheelbarrows, and so many more.
A rack of gizmos and thingamajigs for you to inspect
and figure out what exactly it is!
A huge showroom was filled with wood burning stoves.
Along the tops of the walls was a display of antique ones.
Also antique iceboxes & stoves. A museum of sorts.
More antique collections! We just loved seeing them.
Look at this display of mini sewing machines, donated by Lois Lehman.
My photos can't do the place justice; it's just filled with countless intriguing things.
You'll just have to see for yourself!
