How clever to reuse an old grandfather clock for a Little Free Library.  

It not only saves a bulky item from going to a landfill but it houses books to share a love a reading.

LITTLE FREE LIBRARY: TREE LIBRARY

Photo:  Source

Little Free Library is now a worldwide initiative that began 10 years ago in Hudson, Wisconsin to increase literacy by installing a container where people had access to free reading materials in neighborhoods or where you could leave reading items to share with others.

From a post on demilked indicated this one was made out of a stump of an old 110-year-old tree and created by Sharalee Armitage Howard in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.  As she is a librarian in the community as well as as being an artist and a former bookbinder it seems like a marriage of all of those talents for a magical community asset for sharing of reading materials.

As amazing as the treehouse is, a few of the comments the post highlighted are just as unique:

Do you have a Little Free Library in your area or have you ever used one?   Please feel free to post in the Comments section below.
