  3. Place Furniture on the floor
  4. Move the funiture off the Floor

I got one of these by accidentally trying to place a decorative tray “side on” to the side of a building. It could not be built, and the “delete” command removed the ghost ladder but not the ghost item.

…yeah. It sucks. I get triggered everytime I look at my kitchen now because I see a ghost window just jutting out of the building

You can open the command menu via Ctrl+Shift+C. Then click on the building with the ghosted items and type in ib. The item will self-build with out pulling from your inventory. The same works with placed furniture and decorative items, though instead of deleting or destroying the items have your hearthlings pick it up, stow it in your inventory, then you can sell it. If you just destroy it on the spot the ghost will return.
