If you are in the business of "treasure hunting" you have probably found that you sometimes have a run on finding similar things.
Lately, for me, it's been ladders.
First, I bought a 6' ladder and got rid of it asap because it was too big and heavy.
Next, I found a cute little 4' ladder. It's all painted up and pretty.
And recently, I found this cute little ladder that only stands about 21" tall.
It is adorable (after a little tlc).
This is what it looks like after I painted it.
This was such an easy project.
All I had to do was paint it, then distress it.
I used Heirloom white, latex satin paint.

You have made some of the cutest ladders-I'm ashamed to say I passed mine on to goodwill when they got creaky. ;-0
ReplyDeleteHi, Mine is creaky, too but perfect to use in displays. Thanks for stopping by...Connie
DeleteI love ladders...Is that weird? I have one now waiting to be painted. :) It looks so great in your shop, I pinned it to my lovely display board. :)

Hi Denise, Thanks for pinning me. I checked out your board. It is awesome...Connie
DeleteI cannot believe you have lucked up on a third ladder when I have been looking for weeks for one! I love the vignette you have created on the dresser. Great job cleaning up the dresser and making it pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi Donna, I know! I found 3 ladders at 3 different places this month. I'm going out again this Sat. Maybe I'll find another one? Thanks for the comments...Connie
DeleteI love vintage ladders. The smaller ones make great little side tables, especially on a porch.

Hi Mary Alice, I agree. Nobody wants to climb on wooden ladders anymore so it's good that we decorate with them...Connie
DeleteHi, Donna! I enjoyed seeing your finds and how you improved them. What a cute ladder! I love them, too. I have a small ladder in our bathroom that I painted green years ago and hung antique linen towels on it. Aren't they the best for display???
DeleteMy first time linking with all of you, and already, I'm loving what I see.

Awesome ideas. I am so impressed with your dresser redo! Can you tell me where you find orange bees wax? I need some of that! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi, Thank you for the comment. The product is made by Howard and is usually sold in Antique stores (possibly ebay, too). On the front it says: Feed-N-Wax, Wood Polish & Conditioner. Beeswax & Orange Oil. I love it. It is easy to use and smells delicious...Connie
DeleteSuper! Thanks so much Connie!
