Building a foldable outdoor plant box is a fantastic DIY project for gardening enthusiasts who want a portable and space-saving solution. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you create your own.

Materials Needed:

- 4 wooden planks (24x6 inches for sides)

- 2 wooden planks (18x6 inches for ends)

- Hinges (4 small ones)

- Screws and a screwdriver

- Sandpaper

- Waterproof wood sealant

- Measuring tape and pencil

Steps:

1. Cut and Sand the Wood: Measure and cut the wooden planks to size. Sand all edges to prevent splinters.

2. Assemble the Frame: Attach the side planks (24 inches) to the end planks (18 inches) using screws to form a rectangular frame.

3. Add Hinges for Folding: Attach hinges to the corners where the side and end planks meet. This allows the box to fold flat when not in use.

4. Seal the Wood: Apply waterproof sealant to protect the wood from outdoor elements. Let it dry completely.

5. Fill with Soil and Plants: Once dry, unfold the box, add soil, and plant your favorite herbs or flowers.

This foldable plant box is perfect for balconies, patios, or small gardens. Enjoy your portable gardening solution!
