Hey y'all, have y'all been looking for a way to give your home some rustic charm? Well, I stumbled upon this weathered rustic plant stand that y'all just gotta see!
Now, let me tell y'all how to get this gorgeous piece in your home!
How to Create a Weathered Rustic Plant Stand
To start off, you're going to need some supplies. Here's what you'll need:
- Wooden crate or box
- Sandpaper (medium grit)
- Chalk paint (in your desired color)
- Paintbrush
- Clear wax
- Damp cloth
Alright, now that you've got everything you need, let's start creating!
Step 1: Sand Your Wooden Crate or Box
Start off by sanding your wooden crate or box with medium grit sandpaper. You want to rough up the surface so that the paint will adhere better. Make sure you wipe away any dust that accumulates.
Step 2: Paint Your Crate or Box
Next, it's time to paint! Pick a chalk paint in your desired color and start painting your crate or box. You can use a brush or a roller - whichever you prefer. When painting, make sure you apply a thin even coat all over.
Step 3: Wax Your Crate or Box
Allow the paint to dry overnight and then using a wax brush, apply clear wax all over your crate or box. The wax will help protect the paint and give it a nice sheen.
Step 4: Sand Your Crate or Box Again
After the wax has dried, take your medium grit sandpaper and lightly sand your crate or box. Sand around the corners and edges to expose some of the wood grain. This can either be done lightly or more heavily depending on how weathered you want it to look.
Step 5: Add Your Plants
Once you're happy with the weathered look of your crate or box, it's time to add some plants! You can use potted plants or even plant directly into the crate or box. Arrange your plants however you like and you're done!
Tips & Tricks
Here are some tips to help you get the most out of your weathered rustic plant stand:
- If you want a more vintage look, try using a darker chalk paint color.
- If you want to add some dimension, try using a dry brush technique to highlight the edges and corners of your crate or box.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different sized plants and arrangements to find the perfect fit for your home!
So there you have it y'all - a simple and easy way to add some rustic charm to your home with a weathered rustic plant stand!
