"Buy It Now" Marks the Spot

Rolling out of bed and putting on a pot of strong coffee is part of my daily routine. But leisurely eBay browsing sweetens the pot on weekends. The morning hours tick away as I search for "vintage sequins" or intentionally misspelling designer names to find a hidden treasure.

I'm trying to heed my "buy less" resolution, so I'll pass along a bit of temptation to you.

I think this could be repurposed into a bar accessory atop a bar cart. It'd take some work and you might need to remove some of the divider bars, but it could be fabulous.

Of course my morning would have been more productive if I had showered when I actually woke up - four hours earlier - but it would have been much less fun.
