Today's refreshed= reusable post consists of a flower planter I constructed out of an old pallet and left over black-plastic piping. This is an intermediate skill type of DIY- while the piping is easy to cut and drill through, a Skil Saw was used to cut the 'half moons' you will see later.
Materials:
-1 pallet, any size desired
-how many ever planter-holders desired
-'half moons' *two for each end of the plant-holders*
-hammer & roofing nails
-electric drill, and bit to bur holes
-nail gun and nails with larger heads
-3 feet long, slender boards
-pre treated plywood
-spray paint (if desired)
pallet- each 'slat' is 3 ft long
black plastic pipe, cut in half
'half moons' cut out of plywood, spray painted black
'half moons' nailed into end of piping via roofing nails + hammer
plant holder, nailed to pallet with nail gun. placing the 3 ft long slender board atop of the planter while nailing helps to secure plant holder.
when all 'planters' are nailed to pallet, use a drill with a hole-burring bit to make holes in the bottom of black planters. this will allow excess water to run out of the planters
paint your masterpiece, if desired. spray paint is advised to make things easier.
here is the final product! i inserted fake flowers just so you could see my 'vision' for this DIY!
