Library Ladders (Not Just for Libraries)

I've always loved library ladders. You know, the kind on a track that you can hop on and with one good push you're circling a huge room full of books and singing about being in love? Of course I adore them. But. What I didn't realize is that I love library ladders even more in rooms that aren't huge and full of books. Rooms like closets and pantries and bathrooms. So many old houses have huge ceilings and since we seem to be acquiring more and more stuff, it seems silly not to fill that open space with storage (albeit beautifully organized and attractive storage). But the question is always, how do I get up there so I can remember that I have a punch bowl in the first place? The answer is obviously to install a whimsical and indulgent library ladder. What a good idea.
