Ladder confession


I was going to cheat.

I love me some industrial junkin' style

I was going to use old pictures of ladders as is in my house for this weekend's ladder linkup on SNS. And then Songbird came up with her versionS. 

 let's go to the beach! style

Yes, that's a capital S people! She came up with 3 looks for the price of one for tonite's party.  How smart is that!!

quaint cottage style

Yikes! Must get moving! I have a photo shoot to do before tonite. Thanks Marianne!! I think... :) xo You've sooo inspired me!

Get your fav ladders all dolled up for the themed link! SNS starts tonite at 7pm pacific!

    She came up with 3?! I can't even come up with let alone 1 intelligible thought about anything these days. Much less a ladder. I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with. Those are some really cute ideas.

    Marianne's ladders are decked out wonderfully, all 3 versions! I just wish I could find an old wooden ladder! I'll just be watching this week.

    How about a watering can linkup? I have lots of those ;)

    I know. Three. I've already finsished revamping one. On to #2... but it's leading to other unintended pitstops. Now I'm developing a rustic picture frame BESIDE the ladder. Good grief! There goes my gardening day. boo. hoo. :)

    Elizabeth, never say never! Thanks for the idea! In fact, I'll encourage ideas for themes this SNS. Thanks!

    I just happened to have bought an old ladder while at my mom's in Ohio two weeks ago. Now to find some spiffy way to use it. I hope something comes to me so I can play. :)

    This is all hubbys fault. He talked me into getting rid of our old ladder when we moved. He new I was stressed out from the move and at that point I was throwing stuff out left and right! My mind was gone, it's not my fault I tell you!

    Absolutely love your bedroom ladder. You accessorized it so beautifully. Where did you get all your ladders from?

    Joselyn, I get my ladders from the thrift mainly, but also a couple came from a friend that knows how much I adore old stuff. I might even have to admit I may have too many at this point. But I can't quite yet. :)

    I showed my husband those ladder photos. We have a very similar ladder, paint stained and all, leaning up against our little barn. I said to him, "see, women use these for decorating", so I guess he thought I meant outside. I said "well I was thinking of putting it in the living room" and the look on his face was one of extreme shock... as if I was going to put a dead skunk in the house!!
