Supplies + Tools
4" to 5" Terra Cotta Flower Pots
Available at Amazon
I tried a variety of different sizes and found that clay flowerpots between 4 and 5 inches in diameter work best. The key is matching the pot with a hole saw that is has a diameter about half an inch smaller than the pot.
3/4" Pine Boards
Available at the Home Depot
I reccommend boards that are at least 2 inches wider than that the diameter of the pots.
Rope
Available at the Home Depot
I used 1/4" diameter rope that was intended to be used as a clothesline. I think a thicker rope would add a nice aesthetic to the garden.
Zip Ties
Available at the Home Depot
Zip ties – also called cable ties or tie wraps – come in a variety of different sizes. I tried both large 10" ties and thinner 4" ties. The thinner ties are much easier to work with.
