Joseph made me a neat little old-fashioned broom holder from a leftover board and a couple of wooden spools...works great. There was a similar one on the steps to the basement, here, and we borrowed the idea....
It holds the broom's bristles upright, so it will last a lot longer...
I'd been needing both a stepstool to reach the storage area under the eaves on this side of the shed above the French doors, and more hidden storage...and voila!
Found this in an antiques booth that was going out of business...it was half price, beautiful condition and sturdy!
Now it holds the dust rag, the matches, mosquito coils, Windex, etc. all nicely out of sight but handy!
