An affordable and maintenance-free house number planter using recycled timber and faux plants.

The project
I found some old wood from a playhouse and a flower bed and decided to make a house number planter that I keep seeing online.
By using faux plants from Bunnings, I didn’t have to create a soil bed so it was super easy to make.
I started by gluing together these panels to make a backing plate.


After removing excess glue with a chisel, I glued two pieces of old hardwood to the front and drilled holes into the top to hold the faux plants.

Added our door number and ta-da!
