Property Grid : How to set Display name label of each property to the right of grid?

I have implemented a custom property grid, I want to know if I can change position of label of each property from left to the right.

My custom property grid shows property as you can see in the picture.

I want to change it to be like this:

This is main code of Custom Property grid

        this.representAttr = new ReperesentAttr("", "");
        tab.SetRepresentAttr = this.representAttr;
        InitializeComponent();
        this.PropertySort = PropertySort.Alphabetical;
        this.RightToLeft = RightToLeft.Yes;


     //   this.

    }

    public ReperesentAttr SetRepresentAttr
    {
        set
        {
            representAttr = value;
            tab.SetRepresentAttr = this.representAttr;

        }
    }

Add this to your CustomPropertyGrid, this may get you started:

const int WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL = 0x400000;
private bool _RTL = false;

[Description("Change to the right-to-left layout."), DefaultValue(false),
Localizable(true), Category("Appearance"), Browsable(true)]
public bool Mirrored
{
    get
    {
        return _RTL;
    }
    set
    {
        if (_RTL != value)
            _RTL = value;
        base.OnRightToLeftChanged(EventArgs.Empty);
    }
}
protected override CreateParams CreateParams
{
    get
    {
        CreateParams CP;
        CP = base.CreateParams;
        if (this.Mirrored)
            CP.ExStyle = CP.ExStyle | WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL;
        return CP;
    }
}
