DIY Hanging Planter

A quick in addition to slow DIY Hanging Planter that you lot tin utilization indoors! All you lot demand is spray pigment in addition to leather cording!

Every fourth dimension I larn to decorate a novel room we’ve renovated, no affair what the infinite is, there’s something I ever add together in: greenery! And pretty painted pots are slow to come upward by, but hanging ones? Not thence much. Affordable ones? Not usually, lol. So I’ve DIY’d a few of my ain inwards the past. I’ve got a pair of novel night characteristic walls coming presently to my dwelling (yay!) in addition to I genuinely wanted about white hanging pots – which are fifty-fifty harder to find! So I industrial plant life a jewel at the thrift shop that I’ll survive transforming, along amongst a few friends who are besides upcycling their thrift shop finds (links to al of the projects at the end!).

Thanks for supporting my spider web log thence I tin exceed away along to select you lot posts similar these. For to a greater extent than info, delight run into my disclosure page.*

Thrift shop upcycles are about of my favourite in addition to for practiced reason! There are thence many pieces of perfectly practiced slice of furniture in addition to decor that people let on in addition to donate every day. And ofttimes they but demand a pair hours of your fourth dimension (although this item projection needs fifty-fifty less! lol). Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 footling paint, novel fabric, or novel handles, in addition to you lot tin transform anything.

This is the guy I started out with. In another, to a greater extent than rustic-vintage decorating life, I in all likelihood would’ve loved this copper hanging pot, but it was the perfect footling pot in addition to I couldn’t but permit it sit down on the shelves of the thrift store! Even idea the copper doesn’t tally my decor theme, it was a genuinely slow projection to repurpose.

Everything you lot demand for this DIY hanging planter:

• Old hanging planter (or but a pot that you lot drill 3 holes into!)


• White Primer Spray Paint


• White Spray Paint


• Leather Cording

Since I was starting amongst a metallic base, I knew I would demand to seat downwardly a layer of primer earlier adding my pigment colour (which but happens to survive the same!).

I genuinely ended upward doing 2 coats of primer earlier putting the pigment on. Then I did 3 coats of the paint. I used a matte spray pigment because I similar the await better,  but if you lot volition survive treatment your bloom pot a lot of moving it around, you lot may desire to reckon a gloss complete instead, equally it volition cover finger prints in addition to marks amend than the matte finish.

When your slice is painted, you lot tin cutting 3 pieces of leather cording. The length volition depend on the size of your pot, in addition to how far downwardly you lot desire it to hang. It’s ever amend to accept to a greater extent than in addition to cutting off the excess materials subsequently thence to instantly accept enough.

I strung the leather through the holes that already existed, in addition to tied uncomplicated knots, thence brought all of the cords up, levelled out the bowl, in addition to tied a knot at the top.

For now, mine is filled amongst imitation greenery because I’m non rattling practiced at keeping everything alive, lol. But I mightiness add together a existent industrial plant life soon! If you lot do, identify about pebbles inwards the bottom in addition to a java filter on top earlier adding the dirt in addition to plant. This volition aid furnish about drainage.

I idea I’d hang it inwards my entry for now, since our other night walls haven’t all been painted yet, in addition to I already honey it hanging inwards here! I gauge that agency I demand about other 1 for this room now…. lol.
