Yep on a budget eye used scraps old fence pickets looks nice

[@snanpope]

Love the simplicity! I’m making these but more rectangular and deeper for a row of plants. 😊

[@TheDailyDIYer]

I need one of these myself! Excited to see where these are going to go! Sorry I couldn’t take part in this challenge round. Hopefully the next one!

[@01celesta]

Love them!❤

[@DomesticDivaDIY]

Love this. I have been searching for a planter for my wall and I think if I make three of these it would be perfect. Thanks for sharing and hosting this challenge

[@WrightFarmhouse]

LOVE your planters. They would look awesome with a house number stenciled onto them too. Thank you for hosting the Outdoor DIY & Décor Challenge, this is my first time participating.

[@86abell]

Good video. Thanks. You can save a lot of money by buying fence pickets instead of 1xs. They are about 5 1/2" wide by 6' long. Here in Ohio they cost about $2.18 for the pressure treated and $3.14 for Cedar. Both will last much longer outdoors than untreated boards.

[@organizedbydarci8250]

Thanks Christina. You always do such wonderful projects. Thank you also for hosting this open challenge. Darci

[@Magpiedesignsbyjulie]

I have been wanting to make some wooden planters and these ones look super simple. Thanks for sharing this and thank you so much for hosting another great challenge!

[@rhondaquinn649]

The boxes are so simple. Thanks for sharing. They look fantastic on the porch.

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

Such cute planter boxes, and they are super simple to build. Love this video and thank you Christina for sharing, I love your DIY's and all of your tips and tricks.

[@LindiandRuss]

It’s such a great build! They look great on the porch too! Thanks for hosting this!

[@tinamc2820]

I would definitely build them. I like the idea of having them as a cover. You don’t have all the weight if you want to move them and it makes it easier yo change out seasonal plants or soil!

[@wesh388]

Simple and beautiful, thanks so much for sharing this! I'm making it for a mother's day gift, and I'm sure she'll love it

[@klbarton81]

Definitely ❤️ how they turned out & so simple 😊

[@pamelahall361]

The planter boxes are lovely and easy to make. I love the white finish. A stained finish is also nice too but I suppose it depends on how you want your front outdoor entrance to look like.

[@CrafttodaywithRitaRenae]

Thanks for sharing Christina I’ll have to try these I’ve been wanting to make some perfect timing

[@ArtsyCupcake]

I love these!! I have been wanting something like this by my front door for awhile! Thanks for hosting this challenge! It was so fun to participate in! 🍰💕Maria

[@designedtothenines]

These are so cute! Very easy to make! Love it! 💕

[@boyyobpp]

Those are so beautiful!!!!!!

[@SimplyHomeWithSharon]

Awesome job Christina! 😍A women and her power tools!! 😃💕Your planter boxes turned out fantastic and your right they look very pretty at your front door. 💕Thanks for sharing and again thanks for hosting.👍

[@CraftingwithCass]

I really like the shape of the ends of the planter boxes!! & the white color makes them fit with any decor❤

[@thediymommy]

Thank you! ❤️

[@Justin-vq7nv]

Great project Christina! So simple. Thanks for organizing the playlist.

[@KikiDiYs]

Beautiful planter!! Thanks for sharing and for hosting this awesome challenge.

[@RandomBitesofaSweetLife]

This isn't so easy without the power tools but they came out lovely for you! 😊I would love to try this if I could. Thanks for another great challenge.

[@Lifewithmrsvee]

You just gave me a great idea of what to do with extra wood in my storage, i enjoyed participating in this challenge. Beautiful planters too, tfs

[@lynnsmith157]

Christina these are gorgeous!! Definitely in my want to make file!

[@chellesglamhome106]

Great job Christina I absolutely love 💖 them thank you sooo much for let me participate in such a fun collab xoxo 💖🤗💖🤗💖

[@SweetAndSimpleHome]

My dad makes some like these from repurposed wood he gathers from building tear downs in our area and sells them! They are so lovely and useful. Sorry I wasn’t able to join you all this time around. I’m still stuck inside renovating the basement! 😅 It’s fun to watch these videos while in painting!

[@thediymommy]

That's so awesome! Hopefully you can join next time! 😊

[@tammyhoward3233]

I absolutely love this!

[@RockyMountainGardens]

Thanks for sharing this project, Christina. 💞 I love any excuse to plant flowers in a beautiful container! 😍

[@jennifereisenhauer6527]

Love this diy 👍 & I will for sure b making these 😊 Tfs 🇺🇸

[@k.b.woodworker3250]

This is great! I made some self watering containers out of 5-gallon buckets and want something to cover them so I can put them in front of my house. This "sleeve" idea is exactly what I was looking for. I may make them double wide so I can put two buckets in each, Perhaps put a divider in to stabilize. Also, I'll put a "sill" on top so water cant get into the boards that are upright to help them last a bit longer.

[@OrganizedtoSave]

Those are so pretty. Thanks for putting on this challenge it was fun to participate in.

[@TheRodriguezFam]

They look fantastic!!! Love it and such a great idea so simple. I need to transfer my 🍋 seeds they grew so big. Xox

[@susanvelez6534]

Love those. You have a magic touch! I need those darling! You look amazing🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻🙋🏻🤗🙅🏻🌸🌻

[@jeansteer816]

Beautiful I love them

[@juliab3019]

[@dvaone11]

Yeesss finally a eaay tutorial on thia boxes that I think I can make. Please post the plans on this

[@kategrant6131]

What a fun and rewarding DIY, while being very beginner friendly! I may make some for either side of my garage doors. 😃 And once again, I love your blouse!! 😆😁

[@AprilAdairShares]

I love these! I don't have power tools but Home Depot cuts wood for free (up to a certain amount of cuts then they charge a little) I would totally make these! Can't wait to see everyone else's videos that participates! : )

[@thediymommy]

Great idea!

[@annetrowbridge6773]

I loved these!

[@LucyAkins]

Thank you so much for hosting the challenge. Those boxes are amazing xo

I love thanks for sharing your ideas 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😁👏

[@riekodi5508]

Love ‘em!!!!

[@robynshaw7215]

Great work!!

[@ajab3927]

AWESOME.

[@sophisticatedmomma7058]

Fab TFS! 👍

[@k.b.woodworker3250]

Nice, easy, quick project. Just what I was looking for to cover some 5 gallon bucket self-watering containers. The lack of a bottom is great, to let the water drain. I'm debating putting a finishing board on the top, in order to keep the water from getting into the end grain of the vertical side pieces. Help it last longer.

[@thediymommy]

Great idea! You could miter the ends of more 1x2s and nail them on top.

[@CreativeDIYwithMomDas]

Thank you for hosting the challenge and it's always a pleasure to participate. I am amazed by your multifaceted creativity. I am awed by your wood working skill. Very professional look.🌿💖

[@thediymommy]

Thank you! Looking forward to watching you video too!

[@colleenpastoor384]

These are amazing! We just bought some planters for our patio or I'd totally be doing these!

[@veroarteaga1874]

I love it

[@AnnetteMorris]

This is such A Wonderful & Useful DIY👍👌 Thanks Sooo Much for Sharing & Caring😊👏👏So glad I’m participating 👍Be Blessed 😊💕💕💕

[@noearriaga2300]

Making these tomorrow 😁

[@thediymommy]

That's great! How did they turn out? I'd love to see them if you'd like to tag me on instagram or Facebook with a photo - @thediymommy

[@marthaneudorf1899]

Very nice. I think I will build one of these and use it for my Christmas tree.

[@thediymommy]

Great idea!

[@michelecavanagh1628]

I love these, heading to Rona tomorrow to pick up supplies :)

[@amec4031]

I like it , so beautiful and looks easy to make.

[@JuanMartinez-acman78]

Looks good,I am going to make some for my mama ty

[@jeanettegibbs9148]

Fantastic

[@LisaBurningham]

Your planters turned out beautifully! The bright white color is perfect! You’re so creative! I enjoyed participating in this challenge, thank you so much for hosting it!💗

[@teddyboy252]

Nice job

[@vvele5257]

I love your videos . I am from Canada I wish of you add where you buy the wood from and cost of each product. Good job!!

[@donutplanetstudio8866]

dope!

[@annaallison4298]

NICE JOB

[@SweetAndSimpleHome]

Ps! Love your sandals- are they from Walmart? I almost got some just like those at Walmart. ☺️

[@thediymommy]

The gold ones? Yes, Walmart!

[@allenletizia321]

I just bought 6 of those shrubs . How big are those are now ? Make a bigger box for them ? Nice Job !!

[@collinmoran3919]

Great idea but Using painted pine wouldn’t take long to rot, not to mention the fact that the wood sits directly on the ground But all in all, great idea and design

[@thediymommy]

Thank you! I actually have these up on the tiled porch, so they've been holding up well.

[@EllensAbundantLifeonLess]

Fellow KZbinr new sub here. :) I love DIY projects, decorating and gardening! A challenge! How fun! I'll join in as soon as I get my deck finished :)

[@thediymommy]

Thanks for subscribing!

[@rocionow1]

Hi there what size of planter should I DIY for a. 2 year old (5ft) tall mango tree ? 15 gallon or 25 gallon ? or what measurements.

[@marshallstone2133]

If you flipped it over and shot it from the inside it would have hidden your nail holes. But they look great.

[@donnahill6219]

Super cute. Was curious what model is your nail gun?

[@pscfoss6711]

can you tell me about your battery nailer, need to get one, and i really like yours

[@milenamajic]

What kind of outdoor paint do u use. I need to paint window trims and wondering what is my best go to. Thabks :)

[@thediymommy]

I used Behr on this one. 😊

[@littlecarpenterwoodworking4783]

Is it OK if the water hits the wood? I made it smaller (in my youtube channel) But the wood glue gets rotten 😉

[@joannescollectiveco.4240]

🥰🥰

[@georgiaproo8820]

U look extra beautiful in this video🙂🙂

[@thediymommy]

Thank you!

[@didid.536]

Hi Christina, I want to know what type of wood did you use? I am in Canada too so I guess I can get the wood you used from home depot. Thank you

[@thediymommy]

You can use pine or spruce!

[@deverm00]

Thank you I am thinking I could make single seats and add a cushion with this wood template ?? Do you think?

[@thediymommy]

Yes, great idea! I'd use would screws instead of nails to strengthen for a seat.

[@deverm00]

@@thediymommy ; awesome, thank you

[@jammerules80]

Is it true they say not to wear gloves while operating any type of sawing machine? Because when the blade catches the gloves, you have no way to react as opposed to bare hands are relatively easier to move away.

[@willothwisplx2516]

Oh, I really like these.

[@trm258]

Where is your top from please? Second time I've seen you wear it and I need it in my life lol

[@thediymommy]

The shirt is from Zulily (Joules brand)

[@conniedomingos5145]

What type of plants are in the planter? I really like the planters and the plants

[@thediymommy]

They are faux boxwood. 😊

[@jesschewter348]

Were in a rental property but will buy one day and i want to plant some miniature fruit trees that we can take with us. Do you think it would be ok to add castors to the base

[@thediymommy]

Absolutely you could :)

[@nicolegaming812]

I wanna make one for my small okra plant but the closest thing i can get for an wood planks are popsicle sticks

[@Halinguyen]

Sorry. What kind of wood is it?

[@thediymommy]

I believe it's Spruce.

[@carolynb1413]

Can you tell me the colour of your door 👍

[@iamacrazy1]

What will the measurements be finished if I use your same cuttings?

[@thediymommy]

I made mine for a 14" diameter planter but you can make it any size you like.

[@iamacrazy1]

Thanks for the response! It turned out to be the perfect size! ❤️💪🏼

[@jaycarpenter7078]

Canada is 50% A

[@nicoleclarke9013]

What’s the brand of the nail gun

[@thediymommy]

It's a Ryobi.

[@wayarberry]

Thanks. However, I'm wondering if the speech on this is speeded up by 30%? Might consider slowing down just a bit.
