My Junky Red Ladder

I love ladders.  They have so many other uses other than standing on them.  When I spied this old red ladder on a friends dump pile several years ago, I grabbed it.  It has mostly been used as a display piece for my shows and in the summers at Farmer's Market.  This year I decided to bring it indoors for Christmas.
I propped it against a wall that was lonely and empty and added some lights,
and some greenery, a bow,
and some of my old Christmas photos.  I used screws to hold the frames in place since the rungs are slanted.  
Who is that little girl crying on Santa's lap?  Yep, it is me 45 or so years ago.
I love the new use for my old junky ladder--it might have to stick around after the new year.
