Building a Patio Planter With a Twist!

By: Phil Huber
How do you turn an ordinary planter into a project that’s sure to attract attention? Simple. Build it out of cedar and attach a trellis with curved copper climbing supports.

Cedar and copper are excellent choices for outdoor projects—they're attractive, inexpensive and weather-resistant... not to mention easy to work with. If you want a different look for this project, there’s also a copper lattice version. Notice how the diamond-shaped grid fits into the trellis like a picture in a frame.
