I had a half of a tall ladder, I had used the other half or side for something a few years back. I screwed barnwood pieces to the rungs, screwing them in from the underside of the rungs.
I added some D rings to the top part of the ladder so it can be secured to a wall.
I decided to leave it in its natural wood state--which doesn't happen often. It went to a new home this past weekend.

Love the ladder shelf. What a wonderful addition to your home. You did a great job on it. Guess I should be on the lookout for an old ladder now;)
ReplyDeleteBecky, this is awesome. You definitely should make one of these again. I imagine you were a bit sad to see it go! :)
