I had to include this pin… it did not lead back to a direct source : ( but it is such a great idea! Add a ladder to your kitchen… hang a wreath… hang your favorite towels… oven mitts … add a basket or two… maybe a shelf to one of the rungs! Looks amazing! Just either make a straight ladder or head out to your local hardware store. You could paint it…stain it… give it a distressed treatment or leave it raw.
