With a little bit of creativity and some imagination you can
take something as simple as a plain wooden ladder and transform
it into a beautiful piece of home décor. The thought may not
have even crossed your mind – after all it’s a ladder, but the
possibilities are endless! After we discovered that you can take
a plain, old regular ladder and transform it into a decorative
piece of home décor we did some research to find out some
specific ideas and uses.
Below we are going to share them with you. If you like any of
these ideas and find you need step by step instructions, just
take a trip to your local Home Depot or do a search online using
Google and you will have more ideas then you know what to do
with!
Ladder Décor Ideas:
An old ladder and wooden bins come together for a simple storage
solution. Cut down the ladder to the desired height. Rest the
wooden bins on the ladder rungs and attach with screws on the
sides. Add a decorative metal plate to the front of each bin.
After you transform your ladder here are some things you can now
do with it:
Quilt & Throw Ladder – You can easily stain the ladder so that
it looks new and vibrant and then hang your quilts and throws
over the bars. It makes for a beautiful display and gives you
lots of room!
Bathroom Ladder Rack – You can easily transform a ladder into a
useful decorative rack for displaying just about anything with
just a little creativity. You can add bins to the ladder by
screwing them into the side legs to make more room.
Garden & Patio Ladder – You can use your ladder to house your
plants out on the porch or in your garden. You can have ivy wrap
around the form which will give it that extra touch of décor.
More Ideas – Child’s easel, towel ladder, magazine ladder,
picture ladder, shelf, end table and so much more! Again, you
are only limited by your imagination! As you can see there are
many unique ideas, you are bound to find one that will work
perfectly for you and liven up your house!
