Drops fell and flattened on the tin roof, And rang like little disks of metal. Ping!-Ping!-and there was not a pin-point of silence between them. The rain rattled and clashed, And the slats of the shutters danced and glittered.

School is underway in most places. But that doesn't mean a weekend project can't be added to add some books to the walls of the classroom. Type in rain gutter bookshelves into a search engine and the DIY options abound. Here's our #MakeItMonday to kick off the new school year. The nice thing about these raingutters is they are inexpensive an display option. A 10 foot piece cost only $3.98. If you want end caps, they are $7 a piece, but you'll need at least two of them.
