Re-purposed Drawer Plant Stand
October 18, 2014
My plant stand started with this drawer purchased for $5 at a consignment shop.
This white pedestal was purchased for $7.50 at an antique shop. (And already painted white.)
This old drawer hardware was free.
Then, I attached the drawer to the pedestal using four screws through the bottom of the drawer. The extra large pull was attached to the drawer front. I added a square of panning metal to the bottom of the drawer in case of moisture seepage through the flowerpot. Next I painted it all with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint in Old White.
Then after distressing and waxing with clear wax, I had a new plant stand!
Perfect for a house plant, like this prayer plant.
Really easy, (no sawing) cute, and pretty inexpensive!
Sharing is caring

Carlene, you are always so inventive. I love checking out what new item you re-purposed.
ReplyDeleteFun idea, Carlene! I can just imagine filled with other things, too...hydrangea, greens, pumpkins...

What a wonderful idea. I have a lovely shaped plant stand and when I got the finish off of it, it was MDF and not wood with a grain. This will work great; just have to find a nice drawer. I am always leery of having plants on a stand with cats in the house. This should solve the problem. I love it. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeletewow! this is one of those "why didn't I think of that" moments! I love the repurposed drawer plant stand! It's perfectly adorable!

What a great idea! One more reason to keep my eye out for free curbside items. Question: what do you mean by planning metal? Thanks
