DIY Industrial Metal Planters

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

This DIY Planter Requires Tools and Some Metalworking Experience

— September 27, 2015 — Art & Design
If you have access to (and the skills to wield) some pretty fancy tools outside of the standard tool box, you too can make this DIY planter. From metalworker Alexandra Roth and featured on the Urban Outfitters blog, the industrial metal planter is a crafty addition to your home that truly brings the outdoors in.

If you are up to welding, sanding and fusing metal, the DIY planter could be the project for you. This makes it a considerably more skilled endeavor than your average Pinterest instructionals. There are two material lists, depending on if you will be soldering at home or if you are more experienced and will be working in a shop. Either way you will need bolt cutters, a metal file and 220 grit sandpaper.
