Blogtoberfest 2012 Day {two}

Today's excitement included a trip to the post office and the setting up of the postcard display at the library.  (I know, you all are jealous!)

Step one required a perusal of the collection.
 Here is one of the boxes and to it's right you can sort of see two of my postcard books.  
Boring details:  The box was found at a sale at Michael's a few months ago.  The books I acquired at Target on the clearance rack.

Step Two:  the selection process.  I decided to go with pretty & brightly colored rather than the traditional touristy postcards.  Also through in the originals of my own designs.  And one shameless advertisement card with my business name on it.  

Step Three:  the bike ride to the library, removal of the lost & found items that were in the display cabinet, a quick clorox wipe, and then the arranging.
(Photos to follow)

A couple of my fellow coworkers admired the collection and asked questions.  Being that I live in a small town, I invariably ran into a few friends as well.  Then I was off to deliver the lost & found items to the donation trailer that sits in the parking lot of our church.

Then home-back to the realities of homework, dinner, and the occasional neighbor kid.

All in a day's work.
