Equipment
Hammer and ½" nails or heavy duty stapler
Screw gun and ½" screws
Ingredients
Pallet
Plywood for backing
Outdoor spray paint such as Krylon Colormaster Indoor/Outdoor Aerosol Paint Satin
Top soil and plants
Instructions
Remove every other slat on the pallet to make more room for planting. (Skip this step if you're planting very small plants).
Remove or pound in any loose nails and discard.
Secure the landscaping paper to the back of the pallet using nails or heavy duty stapler.
Add a thin sheet of plywood to the back of the pallet and secure with screws.
Position the pallet on top of two saw horses. Brush off any dirt to prepare it for painting.
Spray paint and let dry. Repeat a second coat if needed.
Fill the pallet with top soil.
Plant the flowers and let the garden settle for 24 hours before moving.
Using two people (this will be heavy!), move the pallet into position, tilted against a secure wall or fence.
Water as needed and enjoy!
