After being scattered in pots in my yard, it was finally time to do something. It seems like I’m always working in my yard, and my biggest challenge is decluttering. So I decided to help the plant pot situation by building a plant shelf.
Build Your Own Plant Shelf
I love the idea of a place to store and organize all my little potted plants. I also wanted something to help fill in the space between my sliding door and where the wall mounted hose is. For some reason, this little section of my yard always seemed messy and incomplete. But once the plant stand is built and established, it finally looks finished.
Diy Plant Stand Ideas For Your Houseplants
1. Start with the sides and frame. Place the 2×2s and attach 3 of the 12″ 1×2s. I placed them 1″ up at the bottom and 3″ down at the top, and centered the center piece. After both sides are built, attach 3 32.5″ 1×2s to the back as pictured.
2. Next, attach the 32.5″ 1×3s to the back. This will serve as a rail for the shelf.
3. Now start adding the 12 1×3 shelf boards. I used 4 of each shelf and another piece of 3/8″ wide scrap wood to space them out evenly. Be sure to start from the front blade and then work your way back.
4. I added the shelf boards first with the top shelf, then the bottom shelf and finally the middle shelf.

5. Finally, add 2 12 3/4″ 1×2 to the top. This will act as a handle while also giving it a more finished look. Then I added the last 6 12″ 1×2s to each end of the shelf as shown.
1. Before painting, be sure to sand all rough edges and clean off any excess dust.
3. Spray the stand, more details and tips on how to do this can be found here on Wagner’s blog.
4. Once the paint is dry, finish the plant stand with a sealer. The Detail Finish nozzle on the Wagner Flexio 3000 sprayer works great for this.

5. Finally, it’s time to set up your new plant shelf! As I mentioned earlier, it’s on a small wall between my sliding door and our hose. It works great for hiding some extra plumbing, electrical, and overall the wall feels finished.
As you can see I’m going for a neutral look with my pots! I’ve slowly moved on to have my pots white, cement gray or rustic terracotta. But for under $40, this plant shelf has been an amazing addition to my garden. More importantly, finishing with the Wagner Flexio 3000 Sprayer made painting and sealing much easier.

There are so many varieties of houseplants that the possibilities of using them to decorate your space are endless.

There are many ideas for DIY plant stands: metal, wood, concrete or any material can be used to make them.
Plant stands usually display potted plants. The plants are usually filled with dirt and the plants are planted directly in the dirt.
If you want to update them, you can always use spray paint to give something a completely new look before putting in a plant or two.
Tiered plants are another easy DIY. They are popular because they allow you to display several plants at the same time.
