Where do we find 500 Eatmore Cranberry Crates?  The story starts with a long day in the Amish countryside of western Wisconsin near Cashton.  Todd Bol and carpenter Henry Miller were visiting farms and backwoods salvage yards when they came upon a mountain of these little crates just waiting for a re-purpose.  We're still looking for more.  The Mini Libraries above are painted for indoor display (full of books, of course) child care centers, kids' rooms, pediatricians' offices and pre-schools.  Most of the Minis, Double Deckers and Double Wide Cranberry Crate Little Libraries (whew! That's a mouthful!), are attractively stained to fit in, say, a family room, study or casual area of an office.  These 30-50 year old boxes show the hard-earned charm of decades of use. 

Here's a special offer:  When you get a Mini, Double Decker or Double Wide Cranberry Crate Library, from time to time you may also get between $100 and $200 worth of books from Coffee House Press, Graywolf Press or Milkweed Editions, all nonprofit, literary publishers in the Twin Cities--great poetry, regional titles and often elegant volumes you will treasure.  For $100 for the Mini or $250 for the Double, that's an impressive gift!
