Using cedar fence pickets, you can make these beautiful planters for about $20 each! Our plans include step-by-step diagrams, shopping and cut lists, and dozens of reader submitted photos and success stories.
We also have plans for a taller, more modern planter, a cedar ladder planter (also using cedar fence pickets!) and lots more planter projects here.
