In today’s episode, we have Gregg Gafinkel, a full-time lawyer who decided to turn his passion for baseball into a profitable business. Gregg started Baseballidays, where he reuses baseball leather used by big-league players to make crafty gifts with a huge emotional impact. Gregg makes key chains, menorahs, miniature Christmas trees, flags, wreaths, and even roses.
