The Story Behind It
An open book waits beside the quill, as if its reader has only stepped away to choose another volume. The clock hangs above the mantel and the cello rests by the open score. Nothing in this little library seems in a hurry to close for the night.

An afternoon opens up. A little library waits to be made.
Leave a little time between the things you have to do, and make something simply because you love it.

Why You'll Love This Kit
An entire old-world study, behind one little door.
Time Book House is a DIY book nook kit filled with the things that make an old library so inviting: shelves of miniature books, a richly detailed writing desk and a cello beside the decorative fireplace. Look higher for the little balcony and closer for the pendulum clock. Behind the clear hinged front, warm touch lighting makes every carefully arranged corner worth another look.
