Raring2go! MAKE A PLANTER 11 Start by selecting a pallet in good condition, ensuring it's heat-treated (marked with "HT") to avoid harmful chemicals. Next, clean the pallet thoroughly with a brush and mild soap, letting it dry completely. Decide whether to keep the pallet whole or cut it down to size depending on your desired planter height. Sand down any rough edges to avoid splinters. If you’re looking to paint or stain, now is the time to apply your chosen finish and allow it to dry. Attach a weed barrier or landscape fabric to the back and sides of the pallet, stapling it securely in place.This will hold the soil in.Then, fill the sections between the slats with potting soil, pressing it down gently. Finally, plant your favourite herbs, flowers, or succulents into the soil-filled sections.Water the plants regularly and place your new pallet planter in a sunny spot.With minimal cost and effort, you've created a functional, stylish planter from a recycled material, giving your garden a sustainable touch. Make a Garden Planter out of used Pallets Creating a garden planter from a wooden pallet is an easy, eco-friendly project that repurposes old materials and adds rustic charm to your outdoor space.
