The first hurdle to overcome is how to make the Vert Garden look less like a clothes line and more like a fashionable planter. This can be accomplished by cutting a little bit here and there to maintain the material and to lose the clothing shape. | The first hurdle to overcome is how to make the Vert Garden look less like a clothes line and more like a fashionable planter.

Cut the pants into the desired shape. Pants are fun because you can do a lot with them to make unique planters. Because the pair I am using for this demonstration has a hole in the knee, I am going to use the bottom half of the pant as one planter and sew off the top to make a second. | Cut the pants into the desired shape.

I wanted to build a vertical garden that I could attach to my fence, but with planter boxes that were removable so I could more easily share the gardening experience with my 3 year old. Unable to find specific plans online, I made my own, inspired by images found online that didn't have any instructions. | |||
The end result is a 5' tall, 6' wide frame that can hold up to 9 planter boxes using a french cleat mounting system. | |||
