UPDATE - 31 August 2025 2 September 2025 - now painted black, with artificial grasses and small stone infill.

To enhance the rather bland porch area at our house we will have a "Versailles" planter with some shrubs or grasses (probably artificial)
The planter is work in progress - made with a few spindles left over from a neighbour's staircase renovation and tongue and groove boards from the same neighbour's old shed!
Net cost is a few screws, some glue and the wooden ball finials - plus some finish in due course.
The components - the spindles were machined with grooves for the t&g boards to slide into, and the corner posts screwed and glued to create the frame.
The woodwork finished and the planter in position for a visual check - probably to be painted/stained black to match the front door and blend with the tiles
