Who knew?! <br /><br />I'm looking for one of those old ladders as well... I know where to find an old door since we have a salvage place about 45 minutes from our house. I haven't purchased my old door yet but at least I know where to look, mind you I have no idea what kind of prices they are, yet! :D Hopefully, not in the $800 range, YIKES! <br /><br />Since I've just started designing my cottage gardens (probably should call them barn gardens since I live in an old converted barn), I have only just begun my journey of looking for garden art... but gosh Pinterest has some lovely ideas!:D<br /><br />Well, just popped over to see what you were up to and to say thanks for popping over to my blog - isn't that video something?!

I'm not typically a 'red' kind of person. <br />The ladder looks good next the water heater closet. I was going to say- your water heater closet looks (in these pictures) like an old schoolhouse locker. So it doesn't look like the eyesore you may think. Well...not in the photos! <br />I like the idea of a door in the garden. I also have some shutters- they were my Charlie Brown Christmas tree last year...but Now they are my patriotic flags and No. I didn't get them hung in time for the 4th of July! (I'm a procrastinator, remember) <br />You should start a thread on 3 things you wanted when you started blogging! that would be fun. <br />For me it was:<br />Board and Batten Walls- (have that in my living room)<br />Vintage furniture- (have that ...Incompleted) <br />Vintage Camper- (have that- also Incomplete)<br /><br />my life is a work in progress!

Believe me, I'm preaching to the choir. I have a hard time relaxing, too, especially during the day. I always feel like I should be doing something.<br /><br />You're definitely not the last one in Blogland to get an old ladder. I still don't have one either. Like you, I won't pay much for one, so I have yet to come across one that's for a decent price. I love how you put yours up against the water heater and have it decorated. I know having a small house can sometimes be a challenge with figuring out where to put things, but you seem to have a great knack for making it all work!Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08659968511488397366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5434601505681405514.post-16428351415609744732013-07-26T18:50:26.870-07:002013-07-26T18:50:26.870-07:00The coal bucket looks great with the new paint job...The coal bucket looks great with the new paint job!
