So, I just finished up with the ORC and my Big Reveal, which you can see here if you missed it! There were so many DIY’s in the room that I didn’t get a chance to talk about (I needed to save a few surprises for the final look.) One of my favorite things that I created right at the end, that I absolutely loved was my DIY Hanging Hoop Planter. I made two, both in different sizes. One with a real plant inside, we’ll see how that works out for me and one with a faux succulent…which are always a favorite. Believe it or not I can actually even kill a succulent…I know…I am very talented at so many things! 😉 Both planters took less than 1 hour. Maybe even shorter, but I’ll say an hour including all the time it took me to prepare all of my supplies. So if you would love your own planter here is how. Super easy.

DIY Hanging Hoop Planter

Supplies:

1. 2 Metal hoops for each planter, I did 12″ and 5″ hoops for mine
2. Scrap Wood
3. Metal Screw in Eyelet hooks
4. Thick String???
5. Electrical Tape
6. Pliers
7. Work Gloves

Step 1:

Collect all your supplies and figure out your desired wood size. For my large planter I ended up cutting it to be 3″ X 7″ and the smaller planter I did  3″ X 5″.

Step 2:

You are going to open your Eyelet hooks up with pliers, I wore my work gloves so i didn’t accidentally hurt my fingers.

Step 3:

I lined my metal hoop up against my wood and lined it up so that the bottom of the hoop hit the bottom of the wood. Next I marked on the sides where the hoop hit. I used a small drill bit and drilled in the holes.

Step 4:

Then I took my opened hook and screwed it into the hole located on the wood. When they were secure I added my hoop, closing the opened screw around the hoop wire.  You do this to both sides.

Step 5:

Once both hoops are secured to the wood, you are going to want to wrap your electrical tape around the center top of the hoops. Holding them securely together.

Step 6:

You are next going to cover the electrical tape with your string. This also secures the hoops together.

Step 7:

Test it out and make sure it is strong enough to hold your plant. Then get hanging!

That’s all guys!! Happy DIYing!
