...with my girlfriend-turned-wife, and...because I can't afford to buy anything from said establishment that ISN'T on sale (and because I'm a book lover)...I perused the books stacked in their sale nook. What I found was a thin anthology showing how to make various things from books -- like clocks. I was sold. As was the book once I purchased it. Now, I make things -- like clocks -- from books and enjoy doing it so much (spotting numerous volumes in used book stores just begging to be turned into something cool) that I decided to sell said stuff on Etsy. I figure there's gotta be somebody out there who would pay me a few dollars for a bookclock. I mean, they are pretty cool, right? I think so.
