Maybe if someone gave me one I would like it but I could never make one myself. It&#39;s like with those hollow books you can hide things in. As cool as they may be, I could never bring myself to cut up the pages to make one.Terrahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17360534387459204322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8732751122831932681.post-91580537847985851152009-11-01T13:51:24.561-05:002009-11-01T13:51:24.561-05:00They&#39;re so pretty, but...but...but...<br /><br />SOB! :&#39;-(<br /><br />I&#39;m actually kind of tearing up here.
