Welcome to Litsy!

While traveling, I love to visit Little Free Libraries. I chose this book for the grandkids. Although I couldn‘t tag it, it appears to be similar to Mary Poppins but the Aunt shares the bag with Sophia.

Great reread about little free libraries found around the world! Great stories! The last few chapters are how to build and register your little free library (some can be found on littlefreelibrary.org if it helps)

I think it only took me three years to install a little free library in front of my library. Books are provided by donations and a fantastic regional group called the South Sound Reading Foundation. If you live in South West Washington USA🇺🇲 look them up. They are awesome.

Libro.fm had this posted on the IG.

Check your local little free library!!! I hope at least 1 Litten finds a ticket. 🎫 📚

Our #LittleFreeLibrary is lit up well this evening, with the street light, the full moon, and the new solar lights. #NighttimeReading

I found the ultimate Little Free Library on my bike ride! It‘s a memorial to two readers who I assume were the proprietor‘s parents, and it‘s got separate compartments for kidlit, adult books, and media.

It's #lflweek. We've had ours almost a year, and I've loved every moment of it. Just last week my daughter was outside and 3 children started asking her questions. "Do we need to bring the books back?" Nope, they're yours to keep. "Do we need to bring a book to trade?" No. And then the littlest says "do you BUY all the books?" They all left with a ? and some bookmarks, and my heart was filled with joy when my daughter told me about it. ❤️

There were a couple of new Little Free Libraries along my bike route! This was my favourite.

We are go for launch here at our LFL. Henry helped me set up the books. I've since added a few more plus a box of assorted colorable bookmarks. I'm so excited. I really hope our neighbors love to read.

#progress

My LFL should be totally installed and ready for books tomorrow afternoon. I'm thinking we'll do a grand opening sort of thing Saturday. Any suggestions for non-book items I should put in for this weekend, like bookmarks?

I took a looooooong Victoria Day bike ride this morning and found three Little Free Libraries! This one had the prettiest sky behind it.

It's happening!! 😃

#happydance

I've been dreaming of having a little free library for years. Yesterday, my husband asked if I still wanted to do it, and of course I said yes. So, looks like I'll be getting this one soonish. BIG Yay!! 😁

If you have a LFL or have been thinking about it, do you have any suggestions? Things you'd do again or do differently?

Still a long way to go, but got a start roughing out my lending library today. Going to chip away at it over the next few months so it is ready to go for spring when the ground thaws enough to put in the support post.

I finally have a Little Free Library!! I am so excited. I stocked it up more this morning after I took this with Most of my Jodi Picoult collection that I am never going to read, among other things. 😂

Great news, everyone! After almost a long hiatus, my #LittleFreeLibrary in Tallahassee is open for business again. I‘m so excited, I just had to share with all my Litsy friends.

The.Monarch.Manor owns my heart! Can‘t wait to get books into so many children‘s hands! Thank you to everyone who helped us get on our feet!

Making progress on my #littlefreelibrary charter #125015 soon to be at my school. I'm calling it the Hawk Eyrie

Just received this donation for my school library. Many of these books will go in the #littlefreelibrary I plan to install soon.

Drove out to Palmer, AK for a BBQ today, and the family who hosted had a cute little free library!

A fresh coat of paint on the #littlefreelibrary and we‘re all ready for summer! Though I think it‘ll need a new roof next year… Any perfect for summer book reccs I should add?

So this was our finds from the Free Little Libraries that we came across. The Penguin book is for the little one. Have u guys read any of these?

Little free library located in front of my favorite local restaurant ☀️

Went for a walk on Saturday to pick up baked goods at a local bakery...it was chilly (only 12 degrees!) 🥶

Penguins, rejoice! The South Pole now has its own Little Free Library. The new book-sharing box was built by Russell Schnell, a scientist for the ​National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)​. Schnell says, “Books with photos of colorful trees, warm deserts, water, beaches, wheat fields, and animals and birds are popular at the South Pole.”

Our neighborhood garden is gorgeous today (it‘s a gorgeous day). Unfortunately no good books in its LFL today.

Great read about the various little free libraries found around the world! A great reason to make my own in the general area of my house!

Stopped at a local bakery to pick up some chocolate chip cookies for my BF, and couldn‘t help but take a picture of the little free library outside all cute in the snow ❄️

My town recently installed several Little Free Libraries (hooray!) but I suspect the locations were not selected by a reader. This one is near the community garden, which is only used 6 months of the year. Another one was placed along a walking trail with no nearby parking. Guess books will be my new walking partner!

I just turned over the contents of my Street Library. It‘s YA week!

I got back from Asheville a little bit ago & didn‘t have time to post these earlier. Even though Malaprops was closed, I still got to visit my favorite Black Mountain store—Sassafrass on Sutton. They have a cute LFL out front. We also saw the LEGO sculptures at the Arboretum. The spider wasn‘t my favorite, but it made me think of Halloween. The sculptures are always amazing. Asheville was doing such a great job with covid rules! #scarathlon

My friend brought her boys to my Little Free Library the other day and they were so excited! Made my day!
#littlefreelibrary

It has books!!! It's ridiculous how excited I am to have this set up and ready to go! #littlefreelibrary

Got my Little Free Library installed today!! I just put a second coat of paint on the door so once that is dry, I get to fill it with books! 😊😊😊😊😊
#littlefreelibrary

Today I found out that we were chosen to get free books for our little free library! Exciting news! Thank you @bookbrag !

Today, we officially opened our Little Free Library. #charter105089

I am officially a Little Free Library Stewart! We got the charter sign today and tomorrow is the official grand opening with registration on the map! I am so excited!!!

Found this unique Little Free Library in the park while waiting for my son to finish his senior pictures.

Saw the prettiest Little Free Library today. I was with a friend who said she often picks up children‘s books for her co-worker‘s son. I told her that was great but wondered if she puts books in them as well. She doesn‘t - not always anyway. 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️

I found another #littlefreelibrary on a walk this afternoon. I love the Dr. Seuss theme!

Another picture!

Our little free library is done! We are just waiting for the plaque. Then, it will be registered and available for use!

Second part done of our little free library. Mod podged the book covers on. Two sides, back and roof (purple). Do you see a favorite book? Next a clear coat and waiting for the registration sign.

Almost done! Some touch ups and then tomorrow we are adding the book covers along with a top coat and the plastic front.

Painting our little free library today. Hopefully, we will be finish this weekend.

Sanding our LFL and picked out colors, Sunrise Orange and Onion Purple. I wanted to test the paint first. It will look better with a primer coat on first after we finish the sanding. #summerfun #getcrafty

Returning to AK from NC today. Will be flying all day/night, so will hopefully get a lot of reading done! While walking around the cute neighborhoods of Charlotte, I found this #LittleFreeLibrary.

#LittleFreeLibrary

Here is my LFL I have in my yard. Since I live in a subdivision that had lots of walkers it gets lots of visits.

Day 26 of #BiblioMAYnia is #LittleFreeLibrary

There aren‘t any near me, and there are too many cute designs to choose, so I found this book for the prompt instead!

Day 26 - #LittleFreeLibrary #BiblioMaynia

These are some of The Little Free Libraries near my house. I haven‘t really used them as a I have a Big Free Library in my house. lol
