We’re always looking for new and unique ways to style our #pandjpretties and our vintage ladders have proven to be some of our most versatile pieces yet!  From food displays and shelving to floral installations and rustic decor, these wooden beauties can really be used for almost anything!  For this installment of Inspiration Station we decided to think out of the box a bit and create an arbor using two of our favorite vintage ladders.  We hope this design inspires you to think about using a simple, everyday item in a whole new way!  Happy scrolling friends!
