In the past 3 years, we've made over 5,000 blind dates with a book for you; now, it's your turn, QC! We'll provide the books, wrapping materials, decorations, and tea-- all you have to do is bring yourself and your creativity to make the perfect holiday gift for your bookish loved one.
No reservations are required, but the selection will be first come, first serve. Books will be priced just as they are at the booth: $18, but $15 each if you buy 3 or more. Cookbooks are $25. Additional craft materials are available for purchase from Stock & Pile in the back of Skeleton Key ($2/pound.)
We'll be around to assist with book recommendations and to help you interpret the tarot cards if you wish to use them on your books. Happy wrapping!
When: Saturday, Nov. 8, 12-4 pm
Where: Skeleton Key Art & Antiques, Rock Island, IL
