Old/New Quilt Rack
2 Attachment(s)
I love to repurpose. So when my neighbor said he had an old wooden 8ft. step ladder he was getting rid of I said I wanted it. I have been looking for an old library ladder but this would do. DH sanded off the rough places, took off the back support, and put a layer of sealant allover. It is attached to the wall with a Hercules Hook so it can't be pulled over.

Oh wow...that looks GREAT !!! Clever, lucky you !!!
|
Great way to display your quilts and/or afghans. Friend of mine uses the herculean hooks. She had a picture that weighed 25-30#. Hung on her wall for about 8 years til she moved. Very small hole in the wall.

Great area to have the quilts, tuck a small one between the bigger ones, so you can use it if the weather outside turns cold.

I am so jealous. Love the ladder.

How lucky to get the ladder! It looks great with all your wonderful quilts on it!

I use a similar ladder for hanging quilts and thought I would share a little hint about the rungs. I was afraid that if the quilts hung too long on the wooden rungs, that over time they would become discolored. I bought the plastic shower curtain rod covers and cut them to fit each rung. The plastic shower rod covers don't show at all as the quilts hide them. It gave me peace of mind that my quilts would stay clean. A very inexpensive solution for preserving the quilts.
