We love a good wood pallet project around here, and what better than combining pallets with another Green Upgrader favorite: vertical gardening ! The folks at Craft pointed us to this awesome pallet planter from Life on the Balcony. Fern walks you through the individual steps to whip up this lovely vertical planter, but here are the tools you’ll need: 1 wood pallet 2 large bags of potting soil 16 six-packs of annual flowers landscape fabric a staple gun and staples sand paper Green it Up! This project is pretty green from the get-go, but there are a couple of places that you could tweak it to make it even more eco-friendly: Opt for organic potting soil or a mix of organic potting soil and compost from your yard. Plant edibles! This pallet planter would make a lovely, vertical herb garden.

This weekend at the Indie Craft Experience here in Atlanta, I ran across the designer himself at his very first craft market! He had demo chairs set up, DIY kits for sale, and a brand new product to debut. Here’s Davis in his space, and I circled his brand new birdhouse in red!
