Window Planter Flower Box (free Plans)

In this edition of Instructables we build a window planter flower box from some rough cut cedar. You could really build this from any material. The first thing I do is cut all my pieces down on the table saw and miter saw (or just a circular saw). There are only two measurements you need to remember for this project. You will need to cut six strips of wood to 1 inch by 1 inch by 6 inches and 8 strips of wood to 1 inch by 1 inch by 24 inches. There will be a cut list in the next step with 3d modeling photos. This is a very easy and fun build. It's also a great build to do with kids. Enjoy and happy planting.

Cut list:

8 - 1x1x24

6 - 1x1x6

As you assemble the planter it will go together much like a log cabin. Alternate the 24 inch and 6 inch pieces.

Use glue and nails as you build.

Continue stacking the 24 inch and 6 inch alternating pieces until you have reached this step. This concludes the assembly. Wrap the inside with burlap and staple to hold the potting soil. Happy planting! Visit WWW.STONEANDSONS.NET for more and please subscribe to our YouTube channel. Thank You!!
