If I were to build my perfect space for reading and writing I know just what I would do. Years ago I had a job where I was delivering wine for a wine shop. In that job, I noticed that the store would just throw away the wooden wine boxes and I as someone who doesn’t like things to go to waste, offered to take all of the boxes off their hands. Over the course of a year, I amassed quite a lot of them. Originally I was using them as bookshelves but I decided to fasten these together with glue and screws and noticed that I was building panels that in theory I could use for a construction project.

I looked at the couple hundred wine boxes and thought that I had enough to buying a small structure. Whether it was a tiny house, auxiliary building or garden shed, the ideas of building something out of materials that would have otherwise been discarded was very appealing to me. I have experience in some forms of construction and like to dabble in carpentry and thought this would be a perfect project what would allow my creativity to flow. The only problem was where to put such a thing. Maybe I could have put it on a trailer and make it mobile.

I’m still thinking about where to build this project and someday I hope to make the dream a reality but as time goes by it’s starting to feel like more of a pipe dream. Only time will tell but if I can someday build this project than I could think of nowhere better for a place to read and write than there. Of course I would need to add a few more materials to create the floor, siding and roof but I think that I could create something very nice from something that should have been thrown away.
