TQ3284 : D.I.Y. Store, Balls Pond Road

taken 16 years ago, near to Stoke Newington, Hackney, England

D.I.Y. Store, Balls Pond Road
At a time when the D.I.Y. business is increasingly in the hands of retail chains, it's heart-warming to see that the independent retailer, in the shape of C. Demetriou Zingas, is still alive and well in the Balls Pond Road. Would the window dressers of Homebase or B & Q have the imagination and flair to display their wares in such an individual and whimsical way?
I have to admit to a drive-by whilst waiting at the traffic lights - but I *was* the passenger. This window display was just irresistible.
