Inspired By #102... ladder decor

 
I've longed for an old ladder to decorate for years … wishing this one lived in my home, in fact!  If I'm wishing, I may as well include the lanterns and bells!  Until that wish comes true, I'll just have to settle for my interpretation of our
 IB102 inspiration...
 
 
Just a few weeks until Christmas … all is calm, and bright! 
Hope you have a tiny bit of extra time to play along!
Thanks for stopping by!

    I would not have known you struggled with this....your bells look so real, they could peal right off the page! Gorgeous!! I really wanted to incorporate bells as well (I have my favorite bell dies and I wanted to use them) but just couldn't make it work! Another time! I think your interpretation is delightful...clean and crisp! And the blue ribbon is the perfect accent!

    Love this. Your bells are so real. Love the way you mimic ladder rungs with the stacked frames. Go for the old ladder. My DH made fun of me a few years ago when I bought home an old wooden ladder. I antiqued it even more with paint smears. It looks really great in the corner with vintage quilts hanging on it.
