Lyndell - Jacob's Ladder of Letters

Well, what a struggle but on the whole enjoyable.  I didn't realise when I started out using bleach to show up the letters that my cat is addicted to it.  So there she was, each time I  finished one she would lick them all over! Yuk!  So then I had to hide them.  Sometimes I hid them so well I couldn't find them again.

I decided to make a Jacob's ladder to display the letters.  It was extremely hard to get all the letters in photograph.  Instead of ribbon I used plastic so that the letters could be seen.  The ladder works perfectly with a nice click clack sound.

  1. What a great way to display all of your letters with the beautiful patterns (and how nice that you described the click clack for us - I can just hear it!).

  5. Wonderful display Lyndell. They look great in your doorframe!

    I was thinking of something similar (attached with small metal rings) but my rascally cat would have a field day trying to climb it. Oh those felines!

  8. I love the cat story Lyndell! I also love how you resolved your presentation - it's a great idea and wonderfully interactive (and aural too as we all hear it go click clack). Using the plastic was inspired so that all the letters are visible - brilliant.
