Built this walnut napkin holder recently and honestly love how it turned out. Walnut is so beautiful!

There’s something special about making a piece by hand, and i’m glad I got to create it. 🙂

Hand-Built Outdoor Cedar Planter – Built to Last

Built for outdoor use using cedar pickets (naturally rot-resistant), sealed with an exterior stain & sealer, and a solid wood frame coated in exterior paint + primer. Assembled with deck screws designed for outdoor projects, so it’s made to hold up long-term—not a temporary planter.

Dimensions & Details:

- Overall height: ~30”
- Interior planting area: 33” L × 19” W × 10.5” D
- Bottom shelf depth: ~10.5”
- Raised design for easier planting and better drainage
- Bottom shelf for storage, pots, or additional plants

Great for flowers, herbs, or small vegetable gardens.

Added a 45 degree chamfer edge profile to this board. The beeswax/mineral oil was just put on and will sit for up to 48 hours before I touch again.

I added a few pictures of board before I put anything on it. 🙂🙂

This board is approximately 8.5 inches wide and 16 inches long.

Trying some different designs. 🙂

Adding the mineral oil is my favorite step after any project. I love how it makes the grain really show! 🙂🙂
