All crafts and decor are cuter in mini version and this Mini Tiered Tray Ladder is no exception! I made this one to go on my Sunflower Bee themed Tiered Tray this Summer but this simple project could be adapted for any themed Tiered Tray! The Crafty possibilities are endless!

This Spring/Summer I vowed to handmake everything for my gorgeous Sunflower and Bumblebee styled tiered tray! That mission has been completed and this adorable Sunflower Mini Tiered Tray Ladder came out of it!
Mini decor is just oh so darn cute, I’m kind of just a little bit obsessed with it. Well, that and gigantic things. Basically anything that is much larger or much smaller than its normal intended size LOL! This Mini Tiered Tray Ladder is no exception!

This is seriously SO easy to make! You can make it as big or as small as you like depending on the size of your tiered tray. My tray is HUGE so I made mine accordingly.

Just cut your 2 skewers as tall as you want your mini ladder to be. I cut them each to be 8 inches long each. Then I cut a skewer into 5 equal parts, all 2 inches long for the rungs of the mini ladder.

Glue them together and then paint the entire thing white.
I added some twine wrapped around the feet of the ladder to give it an extra added touch.

The decorate by adding some mini Sunflowers and rhinestones Bees, and a small shoestring bow! You could of course decorate it any theme you like to match your Tiered Tray decor, or you could even make the decor interchangeable if you’re feeling extra ambitious!
