Build Your Own Planters To Spruce Up Your
Yard
If you like to dress up your yard or patio with seasonal flowers
or small ornamental bushes, planters offer a nice addition to
in-ground landscaping. Planters give you the option of moving
small shrubs or flowers around your yard, or placing them in
spots that can't accommodate a permanent planting bed. As a
bonus, they provide an attractive architectural element to the
grounds. And, if you build your own, you can size them to suit
your particular needs and tastes.
PopularMechanics.com
Over the years, Popular Mechanics Magazine has featured a variety of
backyard building, home improvement and do-it-yourself woodwork projects as feature articles.
Now, they offer many of the best projects on their website. These
in-depth articles are illustrated with plans, photos and detailed
isometric views. They follow the building from the planning stage
through final finishing. So, they are step-by-step guides that will
help you build the perfect project.
