17. Building a Set (Part 17 of 34)

When building a “library” set, there is one key ingredient: books!

The trio’s initial thought was to collect them from anywhere they could - personal book collections, Goodwill, and perhaps some garage sales. The twins love a colorful set, so Jared suggested that the books they source all be very colorful.

Jared places books on the Very Airy set.

After all, he didn’t want The Very Airy Library to look like your typical local public library.

However, even after spending weeks amassing as many books as possible, finding enough to fill the shelves of the library was proving to be difficult.

“This isn’t nearly enough,” Jared said to Matthew. “We need hundreds more than this. Unfortunately, buying them all from Goodwill is going to be too expensive.”

Matthew pulls out his phone and opens Facebook Marketplace. After some quick finger tapping, he announces that he might have just found the answer.
