When Kaily from Blue Sage Designs’ husband asked what she wanted for Christmas last year, the answer was simple – power tools!
Kaily knew she wanted to start building things and has been putting them to use almost daily.
One of the items she built for her home is this darling wood ladder with wire baskets. I love how the baskets make the ladder function like a shelf, yet the rungs are perfect for hanging blankets.
Would you believe the whole thing cost less than $20 WITH the baskets? LOVE!
Kaily was inspired by this Ladder with Wire Baskets available through A Cottage in the City.
Go to Blue Sage Designs for all the details.

February 8, 2016 at 2:15 PMHi Shannon, It looks like the rungs are rectangular, not round, on Kaily’s ladder. I would think they would hold the basket in place better than round rungs.
