Ladder Converted Into a Bookshelf

I made a bookshelf to stock your books and even other things. I made this because not everyone has the money to just go out and buy a bookshelf so I made this for those that need a quick and easy way of accessing a bookshelf. It is very sturdy and can hold lots of weight if designed correctly.

Supplies

For the first supply, you will need an old ladder. The second supply is optional whether you'd like to paint your bookshelf or not but if you do you can choose any way to paint it. You will need wall screws to hang up the ladder on the wall. You will need a drill to drill the screws in the wall. Another supply you will need is sandpaper so you can get your bookshelf smooth. The last supply is books to put up on your design at the end.

For step one you will need to grab the ladder and the sandpaper go over the entire ladder with the sandpaper and stop when you feel the ladder is smooth enough.

Step two is optional if you'd like to paint your bookshelf. If you do paint I would recommend painting with wood paint if you chose a wooden ladder, and wait at least 6-8 hours before continuing on to step 3.

In the next step, you will need the Ladder, wall screws, and the drill. First, grab the ladder and put it up against the wall, and began screwing in the wall screws with the drill all across the ladder until the ladder becomes sturdy and eligible of holding weight.

For the very last step, you stock your books on your brand new bookshelf designed at home by you.
