Planter boxes are an attractive and functional way to grow vegetables and flowers on your front porch or deck. They can be used for herbs, fruits and vegetables that you want to add to your food budget or create a beautiful garden in an area where it might not have been possible before.

A planter box is usually made with wood that has been cut into pre-set shapes, but if you’re handy with tools, this isn’t a problem! You can customize the size, shape and features of the planter to fit your needs. If you’re comfortable cutting wood pieces yourself (or have someone who is), building one from scratch is easy enough that even a beginner could do it.

However, planter boxes are usually quite expensive, but you can customize the size, shape and features of the planter to fit your needs.

However, planter boxes are usually quite expensive, but you can customize the size, shape and features of the planter to fit your needs. You can also make them out of wood or other materials such as treated lumber or even pre-cut pieces.

Before you get started it’s a good idea to sketch out some ideas for what size, shape and features you want your planter box to have.

• Before you get started it’s a good idea to sketch out some ideas for what size, shape and features you want your planter box to have.
• Make sure it fits the space you have.
• Make sure it fits the plants you want to grow.
• Make sure it fits the style of your home.
• And make sure that it is big enough to be useful but small enough to be manageable!

You’ll have to decide if you want to buy pre-cut wood pieces at a hardware store or if you’d rather cut the wood yourself.

If you buy pre-cut pieces, you will save time and money. You can also find some pretty cool shapes that may be hard to find in stock sizes.

If you cut your own pieces, you can customize the size and shape to fit your needs. However, if this is not something that appeals to you or if it seems like too much work (which it might be), then buying pre-cut pieces is probably best for this project.

Whichever option you choose, keep in mind that they will be attached to the exterior of your home, so they should complement your home’s overall design and style.

You want to use weatherproof materials like vinyl or treated lumber that is water resistant.

Use galvanized nails, not wood screws, because they are rust-resistant and won’t corrode over time.

If you’re using wood that is susceptible to rot, make sure it’s at least pressure treated with copper chromium arsenate chemicals (CCA). You can also use copper naphthenate or ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) for additional protection against rot.

If you are using a pre-cut kit, follow the directions that come with it. If not, start by measuring and cutting each piece of lumber to size.

If you are using a pre-cut kit, follow the directions that come with it. If not, start by measuring and cutting each piece of lumber to size. Make sure all pieces are the same size. If you have access to power tools like a miter saw or drill/driver (or if you know how to use them), use those for this task instead of a handsaw or hammer and nails. Once your wood is cut down to size, pre-drill two holes on each end near where the boards join together using your drill/driver before nailing them together with nails.

After all pieces are cut, nail them together using galvanized nails which resist rusting.

After all pieces are cut, nail them together using galvanized nails which resist rusting. To make sure the nails don’t rust and cause your wood to split, drill a pilot hole first. Then hammer in the galvanized nails until they are flush with the surface of the wood.

Build your box as large as possible while being sure that it won’t overwhelm or block access to the entryway.

To build your planter box, you’ll want to make sure that it is large enough to hold the plants you want to grow. If it’s too small, then it will be difficult for you to maintain your plant(s).

On the other side of the coin, if your planter box is too large, then it may block access to an entryway or door.

To make it more than just a plain planter box, consider adding some trimming or molding along the edges for something extra special!

• Trim can be made out of wood or plastic.
• Trim can be painted or stained.
• Trim can be added around the top of your box. This is especially nice when you want to plant vines on top of it later on! It helps hide any imperfections in your planter boxes and makes them look more finished overall!

Planter boxes can add beauty to any space outside of your home!

Planter boxes are a great way to add style and curb appeal to your home. The best part about building planter boxes is that you can design them however you want, so there’s no need for boring square boxes with little personality. You can make them as small or large as you need, and they’ll look gorgeous no matter what size!

Here are some useful tips from our blog:

• Keep it simple by building wooden planters out of cedar wood and painting them white with acrylic paint.
• Build a more complex box out of cedar wood with decorative cutouts in the top for plants like succulents or ferns (just make sure not to plant anything that needs deep soil).

Conclusion

I hope this inspires you to build planter boxes for your own home. They’re not just decorative, but they can also be very functional. Wood is one of the most versatile materials and it’s easy to work with–you’ll be able to create something unique that will last for years!
