    are you the most clever person ever? maybe so – you've got my vote. Looks like a great stand in until you get those custom bookcases. 🙂

    I'd go shopping in our garage, but Mr. Wonderful has turned the 3rd garage into a "war zone". There should be a sign that says "ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!"

    What a FUNKY idea! 🙂 You aren't afraid to "go there" as the kids would say. Very nice…might have to borrow this idea for a ladder/bookcase sometime 🙂

    I like the ladder/latter, of course! Wonderful job and LOVE the blue paint highlights. I have a ladder on my patio for baskets and two more waiting in the wings for just…the…right…spot. BTW, love your whole office vibe. It's wonderful!
