Book Clocks: The Best Way To Recycle Used Books
According to the EPA and the BIR, hundreds of millions of books are discarded within the US… Every. Single. Year.
At Once A Book we are constantly trying to find creative ways for waste to go un-wasted. We’ve developed an environmentally friendly method to repurpose used books into book clocks and other novel home goods that uses fewer resources than conventional recycling practices and maintains the book’s original and beautiful form… as a book!
When you buy a vintage book clock, you not only own a beautiful & one-of-a-kind conversation piece but you also help reduce paper waste, decrease freshwater consumption, shrink our collective carbon footprint and save a book from becoming a napkin or worse! Talk about a happy ending!
