FLEA MARKET LIST: Ladders
Barn Sales, Farm Auctions, Middle-o-nowhere Estate Sales… for me these are the best places to find grungy old garage & gardening elements. Still, the perfect wooden ladder for re-purposing is becoming more and more difficult to find. But oh the beauty of a good ol’ ladder… and all the things you can do with one!!

In our Flea Market Shopping List we have a long list of objects you should never pass up, after finding all of these fantastic ideas wooden ladders are on the top of my list!! Makes me want to run away to a million little towns this weekend and track down the perfect ladder specimen…

Love the bookshelf idea ! I have my Grandfather’s favorite ladder, wooden of course. It is broken , a bit, and my Dad was going to throw it out. I asked if I could have it. For now it sits in my studio and I think about my Grandfather using it and I ponder how I will display it, giving it new life.
