DIY Blanket Ladder
 
I've been loving the blanket ladders so I decided to build my own. First I ripped down some boards we had in the garage to 1 1/2"x 1 1/2" by x 5' long. Then I cut 4-18" ladder rungs.


I decided to fasten it all together with 2" screws. I predrilled all my screw holes so the wood wouldn't split. I don't mind the screws being visible but if you do you can always counter sink the screw holes and plug the hole with a dowel and sand it smooth.
 The first rung is on a 13" center from the top of the ladder. The other 3 are on 10" centers.
Then I just used some left over stain I had (dark walnut) and stained each of them. Tada just like that you have your own blanket ladders.

Disclaimer: I am by no means a pro at building and have never been taught, I've just watched and helped my husband build things and self taught. I'm still learning as I go. One thing I'm finding I need to add is a 2"x2" support in the middle of the frame to make it a little more sturdy. I planed some lumber down that we had in the garage and ripped down a 2"x 2" for the frame and a attached the ...

                                                Western Laundry/bath/mudroom remodel       My parents have always been so supportive of my siblings and I with anything we have ever wanted to do. From sports,horseshows, calf roping, my love for interior design/decorating and anything inbetween.My mom really has never cared for being in the house (she perfers the barn with her horses) and so I basically got to do what I wanted. Before I moved out and went to college I painted my room way too many times to count. My parents let me choose everything from the orange (it was a pretty orange if I do say so myself ;)) wall color to the $100 faucet, when they remodeled "the kids" bathroom about the time I was a freshman in high school..... so abo...
