Are you looking to add some greenery to your home but don’t have much space? A hanging plant pot could be the perfect solution! Creating your own hanging plant pot allows you to personalize it to match your style and gives you the satisfaction of knowing you made it yourself. In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the process of making a hanging plant pot from start to finish.

Materials You’ll Need

  • Terra cotta pot
  • Strong twine or macrame cord
  • Scissors
  • Drill
  • 3 or 4 small “s” hooks
  • Paint or spray primer (optional)
  • Paintbrush (optional)

Step 1: Prepare the Pot

Start by choosing a terra cotta pot in the size you prefer. If you want to add a personal touch, you can give it a fresh coat of paint or spray primer to match your interior decor. Let it dry completely before moving on to the next step.

Step 2: Drill Holes

Using a drill with a masonry drill bit, carefully drill two or more holes near the rim of the pot. These holes will be used to attach the twine or cord that will hold the pot. Make sure the holes are evenly spaced.

Step 3: Measure and Cut the Twine

Measure and cut four equal lengths of twine, ensuring they are long enough for your desired hanging length. You can always trim them later if needed.

Step 4: Attach the Twine

Thread each piece of twine through the holes in the pot, making sure they are evenly spaced. Tie secure knots on the inside of the pot to hold the twine in place.

Step 5: Create a Hanging Mechanism

Take the four ends of the twine and gather them together. Tie a knot about 12 inches above the pot’s rim, creating a loop for hanging. Make sure the knot is tight and secure.

Step 6: Hang Your Plant Pot

Find a sturdy hook or ceiling fixture where you’d like to display your hanging plant pot. Attach a small “s” hook to the loop you created in Step 5, and then hang it on the chosen hook or fixture. Make sure the hook is secure enough to hold the weight of the pot and plant.

Now that you’ve completed these steps, you have your very own homemade hanging plant pot ready to be filled with your favorite plant! Experiment with different pot sizes, colors, and plant varieties to create a unique and eye-catching display in your home.

Remember, regular maintenance is crucial for keeping your new hanging plant pot healthy and vibrant. Be sure to water your plant appropriately and provide it with adequate sunlight based on its specific needs. Enjoy the beauty and freshness your hanging plant pot brings to your living space!
