I thought this would be a perfect example of the "make it your own theme."
We just purchased our first home and it has been a complete joy to make our own! I came across this idea from craftsbyamanda and was in love!
I new I wanted to make something like it but wasn't sure how I was going to get my hands on an old ladder. I started spreading the word that I was looking for an old ladder and I got one. I couldn't wait to start.
All the frames I had packed in a box that I wasn't using. I chose a color that would match my living room, a burnt yellow and then used a red glaze to pull in a second color. I was so thrilled on how it turned out! It fits my style perfectly.

Wonderful idea!! I'm glad I came across your blog again, it's been too long since Daisy D's! I love this ladder idea, thanks for sharing :).
I love that there are soo many options! Can hang different things, change the colors of the frame, and add something like a plant :)
I was drafting my blog about ladders today and your blog came up! You have a few ideas here that I hadn't thought of! I especially love the frames! So cool! I would love to link your site on my blog and list you in my blogroll!

Another great idea!! My grandparents have an old wooden ladder on the side of their shed that would work great for a project like this. Now if I can only talk them into parting with it. :) Thanks so much for all the creativity that you have linked up at my blog bash K.I.S.S., very inspiring.

Looks great. I rescued an old ladder from the dumpster a few years ago and still use it as a display piece.
I am in love with this idea!!!

I just recently took pictures at Antropologie of old ladders and just loved it and posted them on my blog! I really love your idea! The faded paint looks great too!

This is so awesome! I have a few ladders and did not know what to do with them. Thank you so much for the ideas!
What a cute idea! I love the A-frame/ladder style bookcases but never thought of using an actual ladder!
