Stepladder Performs Double Duty

Debbie at Refresh Restyle has big plans for a backyard “outdoor oasis” and says, “I give myself bonus points for using things that I already have.” A short ladder from her stash is the perfect candidate for a little multi-purpose makeover, making its debut as a side table AND a planter!

I love that Debbie actually set a timer to see how long it would take to paint her ladder using a paint sprayer. (Answer: THREE minutes, folks!) While the paint dried, she grabbed a couple of metal containers and drilled drainage holes in the bottom. After attaching the containers to the ladder, she added soil and a few favorite plants. The oasis is coming together! After such a speedy project, I hope she spent the rest of the afternoon curled up with a good book and a cold drink on her patio.

Head on over for more pictures and instructions at Refresh Restyle.
