    Thanks for the idea. Used up two old pallets which were in the way and now have a nice planter! You can also use any spare pallet blocks to make a bee hotel by drilling a few deep holes of various diameter.

    This is a great idea. Pallets are incredibly versatile especially with timber being so bloody expensive.

      Yep, that's the money shot - how to attach it to the brick.
      I have 4 pallets in my back yard and wifey is demanding a planter - thanks for video mate! PHX

      One way to do it. You can use an electric drill. Then just hammer some metal fixings or raw plugs into the concrete.

    Great project for my allotment seating area. The only difference I would make is to double the depth of the upper two planting areas - not sure there is enough soil for the plants. Great video though. More of these money saving outdoor content please.

    A year late here, but love the planters you created, but if I could offer any sort of recommendations, if you ever have to remove cross bearers from used pallets in the future use a medium to heavy engineers ball pin hammer and centre punch and push old nails through the slats until all the block are removed from the slats, if you are going to reuse the square blocks you can rotate the blocks to reveal virgin wood surface’s.
