pommesfrites: upcycled flask safes

pommesfrites hollow dictionary flask safe
{ hollow dictionary flask safe }

the very talented kristen of pommesfrites not only gives me the opportunity to tell everyone (again) how fantastic austin texas is and how not coincidentally i'm from there (and claim it even though i moved when i was 13....) ...

let me start over. the incredibly talented austin-based pommesfrites upcycles wonderful unloved books into even more wonderful best man/groomsman/bridal party gifts. these remind me of the speakeasy trend of late -- bring a little prohibition to your library.

for your teetotalers, she makes book safes, money safes, and all manner of non-alcoholic alternatives.

kristen has graciously offered readers a *20% discount* on book flask safes -- just mention etsy wedding in your note to seller and she will take care of the rest.

etsy wedding would also like to take a moment to remind everyone to drink responsibly and with others. share. be safe with your flask safe. xo.

  5. We did something like this! It was made to look like a Bible and had a flask hidden inside. We engraved "Holy Spirits" on flask and then gave the whole thing to our priest! He thought it was hilarious and even brought it up in a following sermon! (We are Episcopalians, so there tends to be a decent amount of drinking at any event. :) ).

  6. Um. HELLO. Shouldn't we have to mention a CODE WORD? I'm pretty sure that is what we need to do.

  10. Lol, the other day my friend pulled out a book from the bookshelf, which turned out to not be a book at all. Had me fooled. I like this idea, thank you.
