D is for DIY Workshop Vertical Planter

Let's get building for outdoors:

Today I'm sharing my version of the vertical planter we'll be building at The Home Depot DIY Workshop this Saturday, April 11th at 10am.  The workshop team and I will be demonstrating how to build a vertical planter and we want you to join us:

 I'll be at the New Rochelle Home Depot #1245:

The Home Depot

55 Weyman Avenue

New Rochelle, NY  10805

The vertical planter for the workshop was designed by Ben Uyeda from Homemade Modern.  I made my own custom version to fit my space and I'm sharing the plans down below.

My version is self standing and requires no fence.  See my plans down below if you want to build your own.
