The Book Box...

I saw a wooden book box in a local store. It looked to be made of reclaimed wood, and I loved it! I thought, "We can build that" (which meant a project for the hubby). He has all the tools needed, all we needed was the lumber. His parents recently finished building a cabin, and we told them we would like any and all unused wood. We went back home to visit, and gathered some spare lumber; the project was set to build. After a weekend afternoon, am thrilled with my new book holder, and it didn't cost us anything! We had all the tools, used scrap lumber, and leftover paint. I have already placed another order!
