15 Creative DIY Plant Stand Ideas

Idea 1: Ladder Plant Stand

If there is an unused wooden ladder in your house you can convert that into a plant stand to organize your lovely plants wonderfully. If you are a fan of rustic fashion then converting a wooden ladder into a plant stand is a wise choice for you. The cross-sections of the ladder act as holding space of the flowers, herbs, and other plants. Idea 2: Bicycle Plant Stand

A bicycle is not just a bicycle, it is the collection of lots of memories. So I think you will not feel happy if you have to give away your old bicycle just because you cannot use it. You can convert your old bicycle into an elegant and stylish plant stand. Paint the bicycle with a new color and include some plant stands in it. Then lean the bicycle against a wall and plant your favorite plants in it. Idea 3: Rope Plant Hanger

Making a rope hanger is a funny DIY project that is easy and quick to make. You need 8 pieces of rope to make the rope hanger shown in the image. The pieces should be cut long enough so that there remains a comfortable height for hanging and you also have enough rope to make a knot at the top and the bottom. It is so easier to make that you cannot imagine but on the other hand it is so beautiful to look at. To make the hanger colorful you can paint the rope. Idea 4: Concrete Plant Stand

I have a passion for concrete projects. A concrete plant stand is a nice addition to your patio. The concrete stand you can see here cost around $5. So, it is cheap, right? You can give it any shape by changing the mold. You will be happy to know that concrete can be imprinted with anything you like. Idea 5: Plant Stand from TV Table
