My Fall Throw Blankets Are Too Pretty To Be Stashed in a Storage Basket – Thankfully, This Leaning Ladder Provides the Perfect Spot for Them To Hang in Style
With its minimalist and sturdy design, this leaning ladder lets all of your favorite fall throw blankets steal the show


Despite my best attempts at organization, the blankets in my living room always end up draped on top of each other on one side of my couch. Sure, I could roll them up and store them in a basket, but that would hide their stylish patterns and rich textures that make the room feel so cozy for fall.
To solve my blanket clutter problem, I found the perfect solution that allows me to organize my blankets while keeping them out on display – this leaning blanket ladder from Wayfair. With six bars and a sturdy metal frame, this leaning ladder provides ample storage for several fall throw blankets without hiding their stylish designs. And since it's designed to lean against the wall, it's a clever space-saving way to use vertical storage, eliminating the need for a large basket on your floor.
This leaning ladder features a minimalist design, making the blankets displayed upon it the stars of the show. Those wool fall throws you only bring out during cozy season? Here's the perfect spot to drape them when not in use. And since this model is less than $100, I'd say it's a storage idea this is well worth your attention.

This leaning ladder features a metal frame and a solid wood top bar. Its design can support up to 10lbs in weight. At the top, each bar curves and is capped with a rubber stopper that can rest against the wall. This design prevents slippage as well as any damage to the wall's surface. Along with this forest green variation, this ladder is also sold in white and black.
This leaning ladder was created by Yamazaki Home, a brand that specializes in creating household items that might seem simple, but are incredibly smart. This ladder is a prime example. It might not be a revolutionary idea, but it's the kind of home decor feature that saves space, provides storage, and looks good while doing so.
One of the best things about this leaning ladder is its versatility. Although I'd consider it a clever living room idea upon which you can display decorative and cozy throw blankets any time of year, it certainly doesn't have to be used in that way. In fact, it could be used in any room of your home. In the bedroom, this leaning ladder could help you declutter the doomed 'chairdrobe' by providing a space to drape clothes. It could function in the bathroom, too, as a towel storage idea.
To further prove that this decor feature is worthy of a spot in your home, let me draw your attention to its remarkable rating. It has a 4.6 out of 5-star rating with over a thousand 5-star reviews on Wayfair. 'Great price and exactly what I was looking for to clean up the pile of blankets I had in my living room,' one reviewer wrote. 'Fits virtually anywhere and looks great with almost any room aesthetic. Easily accessible as well. Highly recommend it!'
With its simple, sleek, and sturdy design, this leaning ladder might not be the showstopper of your living room, but it will sit quietly doing its job stylishly and effectively.
