Building a corner-shaped outdoor plant box is a great way to maximize space in small gardens, patios, or balconies while adding a touch of greenery. Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to help you create your own sturdy and stylish planter.

Materials You’ll Need:

- Pressure-treated wood or cedar planks (for durability)

- Measuring tape and pencil

- Saw (hand saw or power saw)

- Drill and screws

- Wood glue (optional)

- Sandpaper

- Waterproof sealant (to protect the wood)

Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Measure and Cut the Wood:

- Determine the desired size of your corner planter. A common size is 24 inches in length for each side, with a height of 12-18 inches.

- Cut two triangular side panels and three rectangular pieces (two for the sides and one for the back).

2. Assemble the Frame:

- Attach the triangular panels to the rectangular side pieces using screws and wood glue for extra strength.

- Secure the back panel to complete the box structure.

3. Add Drainage Holes:

- Drill small holes at the bottom to allow excess water to drain, preventing root rot.

4. Sand and Seal:

- Smooth rough edges with sandpaper, then apply a waterproof sealant to protect the wood from weather damage.

5. Fill and Plant:

- Line the bottom with landscape fabric to keep soil in place.

- Add potting soil and your favorite plants or flowers.
