sewnsewer--that rocking chair was made by my grandmother's brother for her. Her name is on it. Since I'm the only granddaughter to sew, I was honored to receive it.
skj--the ladders came from my son's antique shop--when he had it at age 13-17 (He started on bikes at age 10, now buys/sells cars.) One is oak, the others pine. I love to use strips--so decided these worked well. I cover the rungs with fabric. My hubby took the last one in the shower with him to get it clean. :wink:
