Ladder Bookcase

Wisteria is selling this Easy Step by Step Storage, made of recycled wood, for $129. Then you have to add in the shipping and special freight charges. . . so we're actually blogging it more for the idea.

We're pretty sure you can find a cheaper ladder on Craigslist (there's a library ladder in today's Scavenger, which is a little pricey but we bet it's very cool), or at Alameda or a salvage yard like Ohmega.

We're also reminded of this other ladder bookcase:

It's an interesting storage and display solution. And if you get bored -- or need to reach something -- you can always use it for its intended purpose.

I saw one half of a wooden ladder lying by the curb a few months ago--I'm still kicking myself for not grabbing it, as it seemed to be in good condition and would have made a nice set of shelves.
