Build your own Tall Wood Planters

[SECRETBETTER]

So glad I found your videos last year. I used this exact tutorial this past year and was able to sell 25 of these for $149 per planter. I had one customer come back after buying 2 of them and she bought 8 more as Christmas gifts. I can now make one of these in just about 3 hours so it only takes me a week to do10 of them. Thank you so much for making my hobby so profitable. My wife and I are now able to buy our first house.

I like seeing women in the shop. You're inspiring other women to get into the hobby. More people woodworking means more cool ideas for everyone to build! These planters are next on my list. Thanks!

I’m a pretty good wood worker and I would have never thought to make these the way you did. Great work!

[mandyleeson]

I love the way you’re always thinking about how to make things easier, affordable and achievable for ordinary people like me. Thank you Ana.❤️

I’ve followed two Ana White projects and both have turned out so darn good:) I love her “build, share, repeat” philosophy. I’m here to give her credit. Thank you Ana.

Wow. Just wow. Watched a few other videos on the same planter and your process cut the time down probably by four. Thanks for a great video!

[davenuthals]

Holy cow, we did this! Thank you, Ana. I didn’t think we had the skills to make this but we did. So cheap and pretty easy.

I'm a 1st time DIYer. Loved your video as the planter looks doable. What I liked was your presentation and the steps to follow that went along without any dramas or overt selling. There was one comment from somebody that did not like the nailer. But I do realise that nailers are quicker and save time. However, wood screws can also be used with the same outcome.

You, my virtual woodworking Goddess, never cease to amaze me. I have been watching you for a number of years and am continually impressed at your humbleness, your sweetness, and your ingenuity. Many of us truly appreciate you and, as well, are extra grateful that you share bits of your famiy life. Blessings to you and your family. 🌺🌺 PS: I absolutely love the look and the simplicity of these planters.

Just brilliant, Ana. The way you executed this plan was simply brilliant. Just when I think you can’t outdo yourself, you do! Thank you for the plans. I will be making a couple. Love them!!! Happy Mother’s Day!!! 💐

I did a set of 4 of these this weekend. I did glue the 1x2 and 1x3 as well as nailed them. Thank you for sharing this video. I was doing them so different and taking over 4 hours to make the cuts. This allowed me to make all four in 4 hours. You Rock.

Ahh, Ana, the woman of my dreams! I did not know that my woodworking layout could be improved if I only did quilting beforehand. Nice approach & "must try" the way you do it.

Amazingly beautiful. I wish YouTube had a Gold Star button so I could give you a Gold Star for this easy to do tutorial. I can't wait to head to Home Depot tomorrow and start this project.

Looks great! I could see putting a bottom on and rollers... maybe painting and using for large indoor house plants? I love it!

When I worked in the plant nursery industry I learned how make this by making a pattern or mold on top of a table, this idea is useful. Thank you

[ruthejimenez]

Results are very pretty. Definitely a great trick to get the tapered look in less time. And no expensive miter saw used. Thank you for making the project mire attractive by simplifying the process.

I built two of the smaller planters. It took me a day and half for each. For me it's definitely intermediate because I'd never attempted this before now. I tried the circular saw with the boards attached, and destroy the boards, so I purchased more cedar picket fences, (glad I didn't get the more expensive boards without dog ears), and put the boards together and used my Dewalt miter saw. It was awkward but it was spot on for the angles. I purchased the 5 1/2 x 6 cedar pickets with dog ears and trimmed them off and still had a lot of board to work with and remaining. After completing and sanding the planter, it looked so good! Now need to decide what kind of plants to put in them for the summer. Christmas will be Christmas trees!

So nice to see more women working with wood and power tools. This is so awesome. I plan on making a few of these when it is cooler. (Right now in Texas at 7am the feels like temperatures are 90+). Thank you for posting. I hope to learn more from you. 😀

I like how down to earth are you, and did I mention how easy to follow your tutorials are? .
only the double bevel was a bit of rough experience for me when I tried to make the stools.
but well I'm still on it.
so thanx a bunch.

[CardiacCat]

Wow... Excellent thinking outside the box (no pun intended). This is really the most simple user friendly DIY planter boxes I've seen. Love the simplified approach and other than the top bevel, it's just as beautiful as others I've seen that use miter saws and such. For anyone wanting to try this, Harbor Freight has a $35 Drillmaster 7 1/4" circular saw that has an adjustable "rip fence" so that you can make those long cuts next to the wood easily. I'm going to try a couple of these boxes to go out beside my garage door.
