Stepladders are ideal to be used as nightstands as they are short in height, but they still have plenty of storage. You can easily use the stepladder without any alterations or paint it to match your room. Utilize the multiple levels to place a lamp, an alarm clock, your favorite book, and mobile. 

Pot Rack

Want to increase storage in your kitchen while saving some space? You can turn your ladder into a pot rack by suspending it from your kitchen ceiling with the help of sturdy chains. Hang all your pots and pans using S-hooks. Place baskets on top of the ladder for extra storage.

Your vintage library is ready, and you have a lot of space for all of your books and various decorative items. Place a vintage rug in front of it to further enhance the rustic look.

Towel Stand

Prop a tall ladder against a wall to use up the vertical space in the room without disrupting the traffic flow. This is almost as wide as any towel bar, but you can hang multiple towels on it. This stand is ideal for storing towels in your bathroom or kitchen.
