My Old Ladder

For sometime I have been looking for an old wooden ladder. I found one already painted white, with some age showing, at an antique place for $12.50! I had to buy it. My original idea was to hang it from the ceiling over my counter, and put ivy and lights on it. I may still do that, but I have a great shelf that it might block, if I hang it there. Meanwhile, I decided to use it in my bedroom as a magazine holder. I really like it alot! So, maybe I need to find another old ladder to hang over my counter!

Yes, it would work in any room. Depending on the condition of the ladder, it would work in different decorating styles, primitive, cottage, country, even a high tech look with the right ladder style!

You are so creative - Wow! I love the idea - old ladders are a great find - the tales they could tell us..... I'm on the hunt for an old ladder.
