4 Smaller Wooden Boxes

I still had numerous wood left from the out decking I got, thanks again Christian. I made 4 smaller wooden planters that I put some small bushes in, Azaleas to be in fact. They are small bushes that bloom in the spring time and have some nice red flowers. They were added to be in front of the trailers, again draw your eye to the plants and not the trailers. Think or urban camo, haha. These came out ok, not my best work. That's what happens when you need to finish a project and tired.

Wood before, just normal.


I made 4 small wooden planters, only 3 shown

The past planters I made I put a trash bag liner in them to try and keep water and the wet soil from getting to the wood. Just something to help them last longer. This one I got a new idea. I had just put in a couple of bushes, post about it in a moment, and the plastic pots they came in were just about the right size.


So with my handy creative mind I decided to use them. I guess that is from watching Junk Raiders on ION tv. Since it was round and the planters were square, I did the impossible. I made the round peg go into the square spot, and that kids toy said you couldn't. With a hammer it can be done easily.


With their new plants and in place.
