DIY Simple Boho Hanging Planter

By Mandi 04/27/2016

Its SPRING!! Do you know what that means?! Besides cleaning (we’ll get to that in a second!) it means that there are a whole new slew of plants at Home Depot! I don’t know about you, but I’d adopt a cactus over an animal any day of the week. Though mind you, they decidedly aren’t as fun to cuddle with…

Today I’m teaming up with P&G and sharing a suuuuper simple boho hanging planter tutorial. We even made the most adorable stop motion video about it!

 

To make this planter you’ll need:

Simple Hanging Boho Planter DIY Supply List

 

Start by cutting your 1” square wooden dowel into 4 pieces that measure 9” this will make a planter that holds an 8” terra cotta pot.

Drill a hole on either end large enough for you to fit your rope through.

Cut your rope so that you have 4 pieces that are 15” long and 2 pieces that are 80” long. (You can adjust this so that the length that your planter hangs down is longer or shorter!

Start by folding your rope over the brass ring.

Next take one of your longer 40” pieces and wrap each end around a ring securing it the same way. Repeat with the other piece of rope and rings.

Once that is done it’s time to assemble. Stack your wood like so:

Feed the end of your rope through both holes and secure it with a wooden bead and a knot.

Then you’re going to feed the other end through the opposite corner and secure it with a wooden bead and knot.

I don’t know about you guys but I sometimes feel like a little kid that needs the promise of dessert to be able to choke down my vegetables. I wish I loved cleaning (like my MIL, she LOVES cleaning) but I would much rather be in the garage knee deep in sawdust. Sometimes a little motivation…like the idea of a new project or a new plant buddy helps me get it done. Its stupid, because I love having a clean house, I just don’t want to be the one that has to do it. So now that we have this cute new planter, it needs a nice clean place to live!

We’ve talked about personality quizzes loads of times and my friends at P&G just launched one that determines your DIY project destiny!

How is that for motivation? So it was time to get cleaning. There are 3 cleaning supplies that I 100% cant live without. Mr. Clean Magic Erasers, Bounty Paper Towels, and anything Swiffer. I don’t know how or why Magic Erasers are so effective but man alive they can clean anything!! Especially grimy walls, I don’t know how they get so dirty. One of my favorite cleaning/paint prep hacks is to use a Swiffer on your walls to get rid of all of the dust that is too high to reach! #brilliant

  1. Mine was paint mason jars…which is interesting, because I’d rather fill them with yummy stuff!

  2. Ha. It said im supposed to be doing painted mason jar vases. Not! What I’m currently doing is getting a materials list for my deck now that the permit was approved. A bit different!

  3. Well my DIY destiny is a Shabby Chic Cabinet. Not really sure how I feel about that 🙂

  4. I got “laundry room redo”. This is a great little contest! I could definitely use some more cleaning projects and who couldn’t easily spend $75 at Home Depot (in like five minutes!).

  5. I got “Shabby Chic Cabinet”. Our cabinets do need help, but they really just need to be replaced!

  6. I’m destined for a laundry room makeover, apparently. We just bought a house and gutted the kitchen! Quartz countertops arrive this coming Monday, and I can hardly wait! So the laundry room might get to wait a few months. 🙂

  7. Shabby Chic Cabinet Makeover. My cabinets are normally VERY organized, but I do that that one drawer in the kitchen where all the odds and ends seem to end up. You know the drawer I am talking about! Everyone has one, right?!! RIGHT??! 🙂

  8. I got painted mason jars – I personally love clear mason jars with flowers from the garden. More than anything – I do need to spring clean. Then I’m ready to do DIY projects! Yay!

  9. Laundry room redo here! I’m not mad about it, mine could use a refresh for sure 🙂

  10. Painted mason jars was my project – but I probably need something like paint kitchen cabinets or all the walls in my house.

  11. I got “One of a Kind Accent Wall”. I’ve already got one of those, so I think I’ll focus on building the outdoor shower now instead. Although maybe it’s time to change up that wall too!

  12. I’m destined to do a one-of-a-kind accent wall! This quiz nailed it because I actually JUST picked up a bunch of pieces at the flea market for a gallery wall. And I can’t wait to see it all come together! I’ll definitely be posting about it soon.

  13. I got ‘Laundry Room Redo’. While it’s on the list, it’s certainly not the next thing! Living in MN now is the time for all of our outdoor projects!

  14. I am destined for a One-of-a-Kind Accent Wall. I have never hear of cleaning walls with a Swiffer Sweeper and will add that to my Spring cleaning list. One problem I have with the accent wall is that I rent, so I can’t paint fun designs on it. But I would like paint some designs on something big but lightweight that I can hang up.

    Any ideas on “big but lightweight” materials?

  15. I got laundry room redo which is kind of perfect since I JUST started my laundry area (not quite a room) redo this week!

  16. I got the painted mason jars… I’m no really into painting them… but I poured dozens of candles with them for my wedding a few years back!

  17. I’ve been following your blog for a while but, I think this is my first question/comment. What was your source for the rope? I’ve a hard time finding something exactly like it.

  18. Mine was to paint Mason jars…………….. hmm. I’d rather can something delicious 🙂

  19. I’m the Shabby Chic Kitchen Cabinet. I kind of find it hilarious because I have been trying to summon my inner courage to start rehab-ing our kitchen cabinets. I despise the color and want to repaint, but don’t want to have to sand every nook and cranny! The only idea I have come up with to avoid the full sand job is to use chalk paint (which is super funny considering that was the shabby chic kitchen photo!) but I question the durability and finish qualities. Looks like this is confirmation I should move forward! 🙂

  20. One of a kind accent wall! We are moving soon so I could definitely put cleaning supplies to use!!! Guess I should start designing my accent wall for our new place 😉

  21. I got “Laundry Room Redo”, which is actually on my list to tackle! My laundry room is totally functional, and that’s about the only positive thing I have to say about it. It has such potential!

  22. Shabby chic cabinet…not really feeling it. Do need to do the deep spring clean thing, though!

  23. I got painting mason jars, meh. I am moving soon and not looking forward to the deep cleaning and packing, but so excited to decorate a new place!

  24. Apparently I’m destined to be Shabby Chic Kitchen Cabinets….somewhat frustrating because I LOATHE shabby chic!

  25. Painted Mason Jars! I have always wanted to pick some of those up, but I should totally DIY them. 🙂

  26. I got the kitchen cabinet!
    My house is spring cleaned- I just had a surgery, so as a sort of present my husband paid for cleaners! Before hand we went through a lot of stuff, gave away four big bags to charity, threw away a bunch more bags of junk. Then my mom flew in and she’s one of those people who loves to clean-she just seems to do it automatically. I feel like my house got a “hard reset” and I’m hoping I can keep it relatively clean,at least for a while!

  27. I got Laundry room redo!

    Love, love, love the planter. I have been crushing on plants lately.

  28. Painted mason jars – I thought they looked cute so might actually do this to add some color to my new but very grey looking kitchen 🙂

  29. One accent wall – which is funny since I just did one of these walls in my niece’s baby room and was considering it for my dining room as well.

  30. I got painted mason jars. If I were to do that project, it would definitely be in bright, rainbow colors!

  31. I got painting mason jars too… I use mason jars for cups in our house. And actually I even use them for painting with my critter spray paint gun. So it’s probably a decent fit for me. 😉

  32. I am supposed to organize my laundry room, which isn’t a bad idea at all! It needs freshened up a bit!

  33. Shabby Chic Kitchen Cabinet lol! Not bad, I’m actually attempting to finish a macramé curtain for my dining room window I’m going to dip dye demon and fushia! Wish me luck, it’s my first time dip dying anything, so I’m not counting on anything, just gonna roll with the results!! 😉

  34. I just took the quiz and I got the painted mason jars project! This is PERFECT because I’ve actually done it and will post about it during my BLOG LAUNCH next week! So excited/anxious/nervous!

  35. I got the laundry room redo, which is coincidentally a project we have planned for the summer..

  36. Laundry room redo. I guess I’ll go tell the laundromat that Ill be popping by with some paint soon!

  37. I got Shabby Chic Kitchen Cabinet — which is actually a hilarious coinidence because one of the projects on our list is to turn an old ironing board closet in the kitchen into a spice cabinet!! Yeay for spooky predictions!!

  38. My results were that I am destined to complete a Shabby Chic Cabinet Project!! Which is a bit of fortune telling, since I DO have painting my kitchen cabinets listed on my to-do list for this Spring/Summer!! Thanks, Mandi!!

  39. I got painted mason jars! A little too farm house for my tastes…although I have a lot of mason jars already! I do love their functional beauty.
