25 Winter Boots to Get Excited About
Hello Vermont, I know it still feels like summer out there, but the best selection of winter boots are available now. And, if you are anything like me, you have 2 or 3 pairs of beat up frumpy, tired boots that you turn to every year when snow falls. This does not help with the winter blues. Plan ahead. Get excited about winter with fun, stylish boots like the 25 ones I found below.

Although there are many great music festivals in Vermont, this year I have my eyes set on Berkleefest. Beautiful Stowe scenery at the Topnotch Resort, fresh new indie acts from the Berklee College of Music, craft beer, delicious food, a braid bar and it's FREE if you RSVP here. (There are two dates, July 26th and August 30th, so be sure to RSVP to both.)
So, if you don't happen to be Alessandra Ambrosio or Vanessa Hudgens and need a little inspiration, here is a sneak peek at the hottest music festival styles for 2014. Have fun browsing...and see you at Berkleefest!

Decorating with Antiques and Primitives: THE RUSTIC LADDER
Decorating with Antiques and Primitives: THE RUSTIC LADDER by lsamsam featuring turquoise home decor
A good old rustic ladder can offer many solutions to the trickiest design problems. They add height, without bulk. They can transform a blank wall into a display of your most treasured items. They can also be a household workhorse, keeping your most used items an arm's reach away.
Tips:
-Attach ribbons to frames and hang from the rungs for a gorgeous wall of photos.
-Gently remove any debris from the ladder to avoid staining linens.
-Add shelves to the rungs, to display larger items.
-Choose narrow walls or empty walls to display your ladder. Walls with other tall items will compete and make your design look cluttered.
-Search salvage yards (www.tillotsontrading.com) and flea markets (gonewengland.about.com/cs/shopping/a/aafleamarkets.htm) for ladders that show their history. Splattered paint, worn wood and good construction are what give this design piece its charm.
Got a good ladder idea? Please share!
