Downtown Clayton Storefront Decorating Contest Winners

One of the main goals of the Storefront Decorating Contest is make downtown Clayton a “Christmas Decoration Destination” where people from all over will visit downtown and look at the decorations in all the storefronts and be amazed! Judges for the Downtown Storefront Decorating Contest were from out-of-town and their identities remain anonymous. The winners are:

Best Overall – North Carolina Paper Company, 114 W Main Street
Five decorated windows facing W Main Street and O’Neil Street. Each window, decorated by the employees, portrays a different theme of the Christmas season.

Most Traditional – ABC Plumbing Company, 220 E Main Street
Honorable Mention, Hometowne Realty, 338 E Main Street

Most Creative – Awards & Engravables, 327 E Main Street
The storefront decorations feature elves working on the engraving of plaques!
Honorable Mention – Cider House Studio, 336 E Main Street

Grinch Award – Glen’s Barber Shop, 233 E Main Street
Just a note about the “Grinch Award” – Judging was held on Tuesday night and owner Brian Brown was working with contractors to make some façade improvements, but he had no decorations in the windows! Brian was a great sport and received a special Grinch certificate! The new paint looks good, too!
