Handmade tutorial for making a beautiful flower pot from scrap wooden boards

Planting flowers is what every "idle person" likes, at least I don't like it because I have no interest or am too lazy. But my friend is too fond of these things, and the balcony at home is completely occupied by some flowers and plants. But many flowers don’t even have decent pots. There is a kind of flower stuck on something...

Although I don’t like it very much, I still helped her think of many ways to sort out the flowers and plants, so I also followed the tutorial and made some beautiful flower pots. Of course, I used unnecessary ones that I picked up from the construction site. Made ofwoodworking boards (if you don’t want to use old ones, you can Go buy it directly, it won’t cost much)

After preparing these materials, we can start work.

Materials: wood board, wood glue, nails, paint (I used water-based acrylic resin in white, blue, orange and black), pencil, electric drill

Step 1

Use a saw to cut the wooden boards. A flower pot requires five boards of the same size. The size of the board determines the size of the flower pot. You can make sure it is the same size according to your own needs (make sure it is the same size, otherwise it will be haha... )

Step 2

Glue the five boards together as in the picture.

Step 3

After everything is standing, wait for the glue to dry and then fix it with nails to prevent it from falling apart after a long time of use, which would be a bit of a loss.

Step 4

This step is mainly to start the decoration. You can first apply a layer of white paint.

Step 5

You can decorate it with colored tape or directly decorate it with other colors of paint. The tutorial says that people who are dead are alive, so don’t be so rigid. Remember to wait for the paint to dry before applying a layer of varnish.

By the way, after you're done, use an electric drill to drill a few holes at the bottom. I won't repeat the truth, right?
