I like this simple, yet useable design. No green thumbs at our house, but this is useful for lots of small items and easily movable! Thanks and hope you’re doing well.
Thank you!! Yeah, this would be great for just general decor or small books (I probably wouldn’t load it down 😂😂) and even towels or whatever. I appreciate you watching. I’m doing good! Hope you are too! 👍
@@WoodshopDiaries thanks so much! I will talk to my dad because he does wood working for fun (and sometimes for profit). I have no place for a... circular saw right?
Sorry to hear about your biceps injury and wisdom tooth troubles. So glad to see you’re doing better❤️. Take care of yourself and thanks for another awesome video🤙🏾💯
Cedar, really nice looking choice of wood. And you don't have to poly the inside of the boxes if you want to as cedar handles moisture well as I'm sure you know. To remove the rough side of cedar lumber, I use my thickness planer as once set, you can run all the boards through quickly and they're in better shape dimensionally. Good stuff.
I love cedar. It’s expensive but definitely one of my favorites. I was going to plane them, but my goal with this project was to keep it as simple as possible with limited tools...to hopefully appeal to renters who may not have a whole shop. But definitely if you have one, it would have worked much better than sanding 😅🙈😂
I love this so much. And it is just what I need. I'm beginning to accumulate a lot of house plants but don't have a lot of horizontal space. Having this vertical space will solve that problem. Annnnd... I can buy more plants. Woo hoo. Good job.
Great project. Quick and easy. I just built my first blanket ladder last week. You did this similar. Can't wait to make one. I have the Cricut Maker so I'm a Cricut fan. Those are fun. I have one plant. LOl. SO... I'll figure something out for it.
Really beautiful work, Shara! Really nice! 😃 Make one of that to plant spices! Here at home we have a small garden and my mother plants lots of stuff... Even a papaya tree grow up here! We ate lots of papaya this last month! 😂 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Did you have to do anything with the feet of the ladder to keep them from slipping and falling, especially with the weight of the plants on the shelves?
Hi shara your work is amazing. I would suggest if you can make a small kids play house for inside room. Actually i have a daughter 1 years old and i want to make a play house for her.
Thank you! I don’t have a playhouse...or anyone to make one for to build it. But, have you seen the house bed I built? You could use that as a playhouse and when she’s old enough, use it as a bed! www.woodshopdiaries.com/diy-kids-house-bed/
That was cool ; nice work on the herb self Hope your doing ok after your wisdom teeth or tooth getting pulled out and how's your bicep doing ?? Let me guess being on and coming off the pain meds for wisdoms coming out was a walking dead reenactment lol or sleep like a big baby lol any ways hope you feel better 😀😀
Thank you! I’m doing good now that I can eat solid food again 😂😂 I actually didn’t take any pain meds except Advil, but the anesthesia was terrible. I slept forever 😂
Oh, wait, I didn’t realize they came in different sizes. I had forgotten. I got the 6.5 but the saucers won’t fit. If you want the saucers to fit, you’d need to get smaller
Hi Sara, pretty cool garden ladder. I am curious how do you stop from kicking out the lower ladder? Can you fasten it to the baseboard trim with some chain or string?
Thanks! You could but the whole point of this project is that it’s easily moved and doesn’t require any holes in the wall so it’s renter friendly. It stands alone on its own...like a floor mirror or a blanket ladder. It just leans against the wall and stays put. I really don’t see a concern of it slipping unless you’re really trying to.
It’s pretty sturdy. My dog ran into mine chasing a toy and it didn’t fall over. If you place the angled bottom flat on the floor, it’s going to stay put pretty well...just like a regular ladder.
Great design. Two questions: I know itd limit that top shelf, but why not angle the tops of the brackets, too? And do you have any concern about water leaking through the bottoms of the pots and damaging the wood?
You could angle the tops as well if you wanted. I just didn’t because my miter saw doesn’t go to 75 degrees to angle the tops to go flat against the wall. There are other ways to cut it though, but I was just trying to keep it simple. I don’t have any concerns about water because I plugged the pots. But if you didn’t want to plug them, just add saucers on the bottom. My pots came with saucers, I just plugged them instead.
I see, about the saucers or plugging your pots. Il try that, though I’m worried I’ll swamp them. As for the angle, if you clamp a 45° fence to your miter saw fence, then you can readjust the arm from 45° and add the difference. I.E., move the miter stop to 30°, plus your 45° fence would make it 75°. Just sayin’...
So I made these and started to have the base of where the plants would go separate from the glue? Is there something I can do to prevent that or material I can use? I went to home depot for the lumber
I’m not sure what you mean...I don’t understand which parts you’re saying are separating. You could go back and add a screw if the joint needs some strength.
Where the shelves meet the ladder sides or the sides of the shelves are separating from the bottom? Either way it sounds like either your glue was bad, you didn’t use enough, or it wasn’t a very tight fit. Either way, you can reinforce it with a screw
Love the way she takes you step by step in measurements as well as show you how.

Thanks so much Shara. Built ours yesterday and looks very nice in our kitchen!
Amazing!! Hope you enjoy it! :)
Très joli,j'adore, à bientôt salut Jeannot 🛠😉
Thank you so much!!
lovely project
Thanks so much!!
Smart idea to use that scrap block for proper spacing ! I would have never thought of that. Thank you!!
A mobile shelf is a great idea
Thank you 👍
Love this! I am obsessed with gardening and I would LOVE to grow some herbs inside. This is perfect! Thank you!
Awesome! I love having them handy growing in my kitchen! Thanks for watching!
Glad to see you back, take care.
Thanks so much!
Shara, you always have the best projects. I really want to make this for a friend. I think she’d love it.
Thanks so much!
Nice work on the garden ladder shelf Shara! Thank you for sharing the project with us!💖👌👍😎JP
Thanks so much for watching!
Your very welcome Shara! Have a wonderful week!😎
The ladder shelf is neat looking and a really good idea! Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for the video as well as the written instructions I found on your website! This is the first thing I want to build and I'm super excited!
So glad you enjoyed this project and plan to build it! Happy building, friend--You got this!
@@WoodshopDiaries thanks so much! I will talk to my dad because he does wood working for fun (and sometimes for profit). I have no place for a... circular saw right?
This is cute! I'll give it a try
Just what I have been looking for. Great info.
Awesome! Thanks so much for watching!

Herbs are cheap! You could grab a few of those, but this also would make a great towel shelf for linens, etc too! Happy building :)
Thumbs up and thanks for sharing!
And congratulations on crossing 50,000 subscribers!
Thanks so much! I screenshot my channel home page when I hit 50k to remember it 😂😂 I was excited
@@WoodshopDiaries That screenshot might make a good Instagram post.
Beautiful, inspires me! 👍😊
Thank you so much!!
You are such an inspiration to me!
I appreciate that!! Thank you!
It came out really good 🍺🍺
Thanks so much!!
Sweet looking!!
Thank you 👍
Hey Shara. NICE JOB!
Thank you!!
Awesome build as always girl. Hope you heal fast. I'd build on of these if you come tend my shrubbery, black thumbs here
Haha I’m definitely no green thumb but I try to at least keep them alive...they may not look great though 😂😂
Really beautiful work, Shara! Really nice! 😃
Make one of that to plant spices! Here at home we have a small garden and my mother plants lots of stuff... Even a papaya tree grow up here! We ate lots of papaya this last month! 😂
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thanks so much!! A papaya tree sounds fun! I’ve never actually eaten one of those 😅 if you had a tree full, I hope you like them 😂
Weii! The girl with the hat is back! Nice build!
Sock monkey hat for the win! 😂 thanks for watching!
I love it....
Thank you!
It would be easy to also miter the boxes.
Yep, that’s an option as well 👍
Did you have to do anything with the feet of the ladder to keep them from slipping and falling, especially with the weight of the plants on the shelves?
Nope. It stands on its own 👍
Hi shara your work is amazing. I would suggest if you can make a small kids play house for inside room. Actually i have a daughter 1 years old and i want to make a play house for her.

@@WoodshopDiaries tuff women no meds lol and anesthesia shud make you feel good and loopy not bad 😂😂😜
Looks easy if you have these expensive tools
These tools are not free. But they aren’t expensive.
Nice !;-)
Thank you so much!
Hi Shara, I saw your amazon link on the site (we made the ladder, came out great!) what size pots did you end up buying?
I linked them in the materials list here: www.woodshopdiaries.com/easy-indoor-garden-diy-plant-ladder-shelf/
Oh, wait, I didn’t realize they came in different sizes. I had forgotten. I got the 6.5 but the saucers won’t fit. If you want the saucers to fit, you’d need to get smaller
@@WoodshopDiaries Thank you!

I don't understand how it stays up wright. Why don't the legs slide away from the wall?
The legs are angled and it just leans against the wall. Like a floor mirror. Or blanket ladder. Or a regular ladder like you climb on.
@@WoodshopDiaries if I wasn't careful and knocked it with my foot while walking by would it try to fall?
It’s pretty sturdy. My dog ran into mine chasing a toy and it didn’t fall over. If you place the angled bottom flat on the floor, it’s going to stay put pretty well...just like a regular ladder.
@@WoodshopDiaries thanks for all your replies. I think the only way I'm gonna come to terms with it is to make one. That will fix my brain.
Nice, but I don’t have that round saw
Miter saw? Any saw would work fine for this. Miter saw not required 😄
Great design. Two questions: I know itd limit that top shelf, but why not angle the tops of the brackets, too? And do you have any concern about water leaking through the bottoms of the pots and damaging the wood?

Thanks for the tip.
What kind of saw is that? Miter saw?
It’s linked in the description and on the blog post tutorial with the tools and materials list
So I made these and started to have the base of where the plants would go separate from the glue? Is there something I can do to prevent that or material I can use? I went to home depot for the lumber
I’m not sure what you mean...I don’t understand which parts you’re saying are separating. You could go back and add a screw if the joint needs some strength.
@@WoodshopDiaries I'm referring to the shelves. They are starting to separate from each other and I can see the glue gaps.
Where the shelves meet the ladder sides or the sides of the shelves are separating from the bottom? Either way it sounds like either your glue was bad, you didn’t use enough, or it wasn’t a very tight fit. Either way, you can reinforce it with a screw
Can this be used as a book shelf?
Yes, but I would secure it to the wall if you plan to load it down with heavy books 👍
Will it fall over ?
I’ve never had it fall over
What kind of sander is that?
It’s a Mirka 👍
