Looking for DIY Large Wooden Planters: Any Tips or Resources?

Asked By GardenGnome42 On

Hey everyone! I'm in need of some large wooden planters for my garden—ideally around 2 meters in length and between 70 cm to 1 meter in height. My goal is to use them to create separation in my garden and provide some extra planting space. The width isn't a big deal for me.

Here's the catch: I'm not very handy and I don't have any tools at my disposal. I've tried searching online and found a few generic "how-to" videos that weren't thorough enough, and the ones that are seem to be priced around £350, which is way out of my budget.

If anyone knows where I can purchase flat pack planters or if there are any specific plans or guidance available for building them myself, I would really appreciate your help! I know this might sound like a simple request, but I'm starting from zero here. Thanks in advance!

I searched eBay but couldn't find anything that matched what I'm looking for.

I've seen some cool setups using these blocks that allow planks of wood to fit in the slots. Not sure if they're available in the UK, but they look pretty easy to use!

Have you considered using pallet collars? They're super affordable and you can stack them however you need. I think they could work really well for your planter project!
