Paperclip... To a House!

July 09, 2006

Yes, it sounds a tad strange but Kyle MacDonald has done the unthinkable, taken a red paperclip and successfully traded it over the course of a year for other items with the end result being a house.

It’s a truly remarkable journey as you can see:

Red Paperclip → Fish Pen → Door Knob → Coleman Stove → Red Generator →Instant Party → Skidoo (snowmobile) → Trip to Yahk → Cube Van → Recording Contract → Year in Phoenix →Afternoon with Alice Cooper → KISS Snow Globe → Movie Role → HOUSE!

You can read all about this remarkable story on Kyle’s blog.
