More Pallet Board & Nursery Pot Planters
by

Tree pots from a nursery are cheap. Pallet boards are FREE. Put them together to make pretty planters for your garden this season!
Ugly black planter pot from our local nursery. Needs some help!
See how these neat looking planters look now with pallet boards!
This is a big 25 gallon pot. We added a rim and some color to match the trim on our house. I LOVE how this came out!
Cut the boards to length. Slide them under the rim and use a nailer, stapler or construction adhesive to attach. Place them closer together at the bottom than the top for tapered pots.
Natural wood or dry brushed with a bit of color? You decide!
So much prettier than a plain black nursery pot. And a whole lot CHEAPER than a decorative planter in this large size. Try it, you'll like it!
Before and after....I LOVE how these planters look now!

Beautifully done, I love it! I would put 12 gauge or thicker wire around the center and it would look like a barrel.
Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Do you know if they sell the tree pots at the big box stores?
How do you attach the boards at the bottom?
If you nail them wont they leak when watering and encourage degrading of the wood over time. Wonder if gorilla glue would work???
