Redwood Planter Boxes
This versatile redwood planter fits into almost any garden or patio arrangement. There are four design options to build, and each has an adjustable shelf to accommodate plants of different sizes.
One of the most interesting things about the design of this planter is the options. The basic planter is a square unit. Building one that's twice as wide gives it a different look. And by adding one with longer legs, you can create an attractive grouping. Another nice thing about this planter is something you can't even see from the outside - the shelf. It's adjustable like the shelves in some bookcases, so you can change the height of the shelf to fit different-sized potted plants. This means the same planter can show off short plants in the spring and taller plants in the summer. But I think the best part about this project is the fact that you can create a wonderful way to house your outdoor plants in just one weekend!

Similar Woodsmith Plans
Imperial Plans
The United States Customary System of Units (USCS or USC), more commonly referred to as the English or Imperial system, is the standard set of units for our plans. It uses inches and feet for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are in the United States, and it is the one we have traditionally offered on this website.
Metric Plans
The International System of Units (SI), more commonly referred to as the metric system, is the alternative set of units that we have available for some of our plans. It uses millimeters, centimeters, and meters for measurement. This is the one you probably want if you are outside the United States. These plans are provided by our business partner, Australian Woodsmith, and are based on the original Woodsmith plan. However, dimensions and other elements of the plan may vary between the metric and standard versions. Be sure to double-check the plan before building.
Premium Plans
All of the information that you need to build our plans can be found in the standard plan. However, if you want even more granular detail to make your job easier, you should consider our premium plans. These come with additional shop diagrams that we drew when creating the prototypes. Shop drawings are not available for every plan.
