Step 1
First, to make a pallet planter, take your pallet apart with a hammer, crowbar or pallet tool, making sure to remove any leftover nails in the wood.
Step 2
Add three ‘slats’ to the bottom of each ‘rung’ to create a shelf, using a drill and screws. Do not cover the holes between blocks as these will be where you place your plants.
Step 3
After stirring, use a brush to paint your planter with Rust-Oleum Garden Paint, ensuring to follow the grain of the wood, and allow to dry. This planter has been painted with warm, earthy green Bramwell for that relaxed homely feel.
Step 4
Line each planter with old compost bags, using a staple gun to keep them in place. Add compost to each of your planters and select your favourite herbs or flowers. Don’t forget to water them!
And that's it!
